Genuine question - do you ever think about stopping you tube/insta altogether if it’s scaring you security wise? I know if I thought my family were at risk or if I felt so anxious about doing every day stuff like school runs etc then I would have to stop it. It’s surely not worth it?! People know all this stuff about you just from what you share online and they don’t even know you - that would give me the creeps!
It's a good question imo, especially if it affects you as a parent. I watch a lot of parenting vloggers and enjoy watching them, but on the same page whilst we do only see a few minutes of a day, people also do know a lot of information such as the times and days of children's social activities, when people are on holiday, what time people leave the house etc, not just from RUclips but from instagram stories and the like. I suppose if people live locally, they may recognise the area and therefore know exactly where those people will be at a certain time. For me, that's a scary situation and is completely separate to the nasty comments made. I've made a decision to have a very minimal digital footprint for myself and my children, as the enormity of the internet worries me. This isn't intended as a critique either Sarah, just my general view. X
@@hayleyjones5265 hence why I said 'I watch alot, but on the same page....' it's absolutely a choice and I even said my comment wasn't a negative one, just my opinion that when you think about it, it is actually quite scary how much information can be gleaned from these small snippets.
Mrs Meldrum has exactly the same issue, no idea why people feel the need to troll x hope you and your family are ok and lovely to see you uploading again
So glad to see you back with an open, honest chat. I can’t even imagine being picked apart in every awful, demeaning way possible (particularly regarding your children and marriage). No one’s perfect, but you are an absolute inspiration of a hardworking, loving, nurturing mother and I, for one, respect and appreciate you SO much! Hoping you’ll be able to continue to rise above it and share what feels right for you and your family. ❤️ You’re awesome and we love following your adventures! (And you’re SO right in all of your points - none of it’s fair or right!! NO ONE deserves that type of behavior.)
That website is nothing but an echo chamber for nasty, vindictive people. Don't listen to them, I for one love your videos. They're so real and genuine, it makes me feel better about my own parenting to see others doing the same things as me. X
Sarah I am really sorry to hear that you’ve had such an horrendous time. If someone has nothing nice to say then really they should say nothing. Kindness costs nothing but means everything to someone. Keep doing what you’re doing as life is too short to allow some horrible people destroy it and make you feel you’re doing something wrong or not in the way they would do things. Xxx
This makes me so sad to hear, what a shame that the smallest group of people often seem to have the loudest voice. If it helps at all there really is a quiet group of people out there who you’re helping by doing your RUclips channel, when I really needed it your clips helped me through the newborn days.
Dear Sarah, I’m sorry you’ve had these horrible comments to cope with- they must be from people who are jealous of you because you have a lovely family. I work as a primary school teacher and I think you’re a very good parent and you clearly love your children and are doing a very good job by them. You coped really well when Rob is away and it’s lovely seeing the two of you parenting together when he’s home. You’ve created a lovely stable home for your children. Try not to take the criticism to heart and instead believe all these positive comments from people who appreciate your vlogs xx
I'm sorry you've had to go through all that negativity Sarah. Ive been following you for years and cant think what bad things people would find to say about you. You come across as a lovely person and a fab mum. Keep your chin up xxx
Feel for you .. rest assured most people that watch you are not jealous nut job trolls , i enjoy watching a busy normal mum . Please don’t look at all the rubbish .. your a fab mum 😘xx
I know I’m a bit late in commenting, but in response to what you said about a rescue cat needing a chilled house...NO NO NO! I work with rescues and yes there are some cats more suitable for older children but many are suitable for young children (especially some kittens as they essentially more of a blank slate...if that makes sense!). Rescue all the way!
Be kind to yourself, you are a great mum, wife , person and it's not ok for anyone to make you feel otherwise. Block anyone who is a nasty nelly and carry on regardless you rock! Ps. House buying is great fun 😊
So so sorry you went through this i know how hard it can be being a military wife without the added stress from small minded people who appear to have to try and make themselves feel good by being nasty to others . Please know most people are not like that . I love your vlogs and hope you continue xxxx
It’s just so rubbish what you and the other mum vloggers have had to endure through that horrible website. It should be shut down and those who are part of it prosecuted. Just because they hide behind a screen doesn’t mean it’s not bullying. Keep your chin up, you are a wonderful mum, wife and human being! Thanks for the honest update x
Love the chatty update - nice to see one from you. I can't believe how much you've put up with! I'd have shrivelled into a hole and stopped it all so well done for continuing and not letting them win. Yay for all the good updates though - they all sound exciting xxx
So sorry that you have had such a hard time ♥️ sending you love, you and your family are perfect and beautiful, shield yourself from as much negativity as possible, it is those people that have the problem not you, don't let them drag you down xxx
Why don't people just apply the good old "when you don't have anything nice to say don't say anything at all"?? I think you're lovely and your kids and your family. Hang in there xxxx
Well I think you are lovely, your family is lovely, your channel is lovely too! Keep sharing you really do help lots of us! We live in a very toxic world and it makes me sad to hear what you have gone through! Keep being you as you are great, many of us share that good thought! ❤️xxx
I also think you are amazing and listening to you address this, makes me respect you even more. Always speak out; you are the voice of so many others. Hugs xxx
Welcome back. Lovely to have an update Sarah. ❤️ I always like to remember wheb thinking about people talking crap. Those who mind dont matter and those who matter don't mind. Chin up Sarah. Those kids are shining examples of well rounded, well loved kids and you are a fab mum. Xx
Aww sarah there loads of mummy vloggers that go through this and it must be heart breaking u do so well have a lovely family and husband ....keep doing wat ur doing lovely x x
I’ve missed hearing your wee updates! I really respect you sharing your truth about what has been happening, it is so relatable to hear how outside actions can affect you. Also I’m loving the big changes in Lachlan, he is so grown up all of a sudden 💙
I have read on that website when Mrs meldrum mentioned it to see what was going on! The stuff they say is vile and disgusting and can't believe how much time they have on their hands!!! Try not to worry about it, 99.9% of the normal people would never ever think the things they say about you!! Head up high chick your subs will always be here for you xxx
Oh Sarah I am so sorry these people have made you feel like this keep listening to those who truly know you. I love watching your videos but do what is right for you and your family xxx
Missed your videos but totally understand why you would be feeling that way! I think you are beautiful with a fantastic family. I wonder how these people find the time, how they qualify the things they say with themselves in their head (never mind with their families and employers etc) baffles me. I want to say ignore it but I also know how hard that is, but it definitely is their issue and nothing to do with you xx
I totally agree on the increase of hate online and I strongly dislike that development as well... But I'm so happy to see that you seem to be good about it! I continously wish you and your adorable family nothing but the best 😊 Hugs from Germany xx
I think it's really sad that people want to bring you down so much and say really hurtful things and it would be impossible to just ignore it and not let it get you down, you can only do your best. X buying a house sounds exciting, I think it would be a game changer for you, you are so unhappy in MQ, it would be a great focus for you and like u say its only for a few years and fingers crossed you would make some money too for the move back to Scotland.
I don’t read any gossip stuff but I unsubbed from all mum bloggers (including you) and Instagram accounts just because it started to feel really vapid. And also you should just accept that people are gonna talk about your relationship and kids since your whole channel is based on your family, that’s just going to happen.
You are one amazing lady and I love seeing you insta updates and RUclips hun. So sorry about Cosmo we lost our beloved greyhound fifi in January we’re getting a new rescue dog at the end of this month
Not all parents will parent the same way don’t worry about what others say it’s you and your family and what a wonderful family you have. Do not worry what others think or say it’s not about them at all.
I moved around a lot as a child and I feel the same about buying houses being this big scary thing...but in our case what's scarier is the amount of rent we have spent! So sorry you've had such a bad time. I started a blog and freaked out when it started to grow and I had one troll one day who I don't think was intentionally nasty but took my post the completely wrong way but I decided I couldn't do it as knew it was likely to get worse. I am sure that at some point something will happen with the law regarding this though as if people said this stuff to your face it would be harassment/emotional abuse and in real life it's hard to prove but the evidence is so clear if the person is traceable (but if it was taken more seriously they could put more resources into tracking abuse online). So sorry it's affecting you...and that you lost your cat. I always think kitty heaven must be so fun. Great to have a chatty update back!
I honestly have no interest in buying a house, yes renting is ideal for everyone. But all the big jobs like plumbing, ovens, fridge freezers etc. Its all in the landlord, that's one benefit. I get bored in one place (dad was raf) easiser and no money lost with renting
The people on that website that we shall not name! Would 100% pick each other apart, their parenting, relationships ect... If they showed family, friends, work mates the website, and didn’t t say they were part of it, they would have a reality shock at what response to what they write about people. (A reality shock they desperately need)
I just don’t get it, how would they feel if you publicly showed everyone what horrible people they are. When it comes to safety of your children that is not acceptable again would they want everyone to know all the details of their kids movements. These women yes it’s women and mothers it’s disturbing why they have such evil thoughts and comments. I’ve followed you for a few years now, I love your content you are honest and it shows on your channel. lastly you may put some of your life on social media but you are more than entitled to privacy. Ps lovely the kitty’s xx
My Daughter was the same. I think they must become more aware that people have views and opinions. When I chatted to a friend she had the same and knew of another little girl the same (all same age). My daughter is 6 in July, so also year one x
So sorry to hear you’ve had such a rubbish year. I’ve missed your uploads and really enjoy these chatty updates. Sending love to you and the family x

But then you still watch it!? If you are that against it why watch it? It's a choice Sarah makes whether that's right or wrong who knows!?

My Daughter was the same. I think they must become more aware that people have views and opinions. When I chatted to a friend she had the same and knew of another little girl the same (all same age). My daughter is 6 in July, so also year one x
