This story is genuinely soooooo heartbreaking. OP and I are the same age and she already has so many responsibilities. I wish I could reach through the screen and hug her
I looked up the reddit user and she literally writes how I used to when I was 15-16. like this is just a baby herself who was forced to grow up too fast. this is horrible but i hope things start looking up for the whole family
I’ve listened to this story multiple times and each time there’s a new update and I can say that I’m very VERY glad to see that the updates are headed towards an optimistic direction. Like seriously OP, got handed the literally negative Debuff of a lifetime, aka: shitty dad and even shittier mum. She’s damaged and still trying, probably needs more therapy herself so she doesn’t keep worrying about any new potential siblings she might get from her sperm and egg donors and taking them in BECAUSE, she already has her hands full. She doesn’t need more. All the best to OP and her family!!!! Sending hugs and best wishes!!!
Been following this one since her first post on Reddit and as much as my heart hurts for them, I'm so proud of OP and happy for all the others for how things have gone for them. I work with a number of foster kids and I've heard so many more horror stories than happy endings when it comes to foster care.
I'm both proud and sad for all of those children. They truly only have each other, and OP is so young but shes trying to create stability and love for everyone. I especially love that the older siblings (excluding the whiny, annoying oldest) are there for OP. The oldest called OP an enabler, but that's such BS because the goal of the eldest's words was to make OP give up. All the eldest has done is try to put down OP, make OP her therapist, and dodge their family. Like give money and go away if it's too hard. That's fine
This girl and her brother deserve so much love and admiration for how they are standing up and supporting their younger siblings. I know I could never have done what she is doing at her young age - I would have just broken down and given up. I feel so sorry that they have had such P.O.S parents who think nothing of creating a life, and then abandoning it for someone else to take care of, every single time. Some people should be stripped of the right to have children when they treat them like this.
This isn't the same, but when she said she only calls the baby baby because it doesn't fill right for her to have a name yet, I felt that. When I had to take my niece in as a newborn, I called her by her name just enough for her to be able to recognize it when she gets older but the first 3 months was like 80% "The baby", "Hi baby", "How is baby?", etc. Lol
When I get your tiktoks i always check how long they are. If it’s 15+ minutes I head here. I was so excited to see a 45 minute story I immediately came to RUclips
It sucks eggs that OP had to step up because her mom is a narcissist who decided to leave and never return. I hope OP had a happy life after all this was said and done because she earned it.
Yeah all the adults in OP and her older siblings lives have failed. Mom and dad think they can continue to procreate and stuff (especially dad based on the post), Nan is insecure because OP is actually caring for her siblings, other adults like her aunt are turning a blind eye, OP’s oldest is also insecure and running away from stuff (tbh if someone needs therapy the most it’s her). Just OP, her brother, and hopefully another older sister + the 17 year old who’s stepping up!
ON the third update and am sooo worried about this 7 year old. Behavior like that towards sleeping is generally indicative of traumatic event(s) or enviroment.
Saint OP. The trauma passed down from generation to generation is the real obstacle while trying to survive day to day. I grew up in a time where therapy wasn't available unless you were totally f-ing nuts, but even I can see that ALL OF THEM need one on one, face to face therapy, not impersonal video chats. The OP didn't say anything about her dating of having friends, just talks about work and parenting... I hope she will start to have some time for herself after the move, but if there is someone out there for her, they'll have to accept the whole family or nothing, which means he or she would have to be a saint as well.
The voice said washington and it seriously tripped me up, checked op's comments and stuff and sure enough - theyre australian. I heard her calling the kids feral and was like, theyve gotta be from qld. Never heard of kinship care, good to know centrelink can come through like that. The amount paperwork they probably had to fill out on top of everything else sounds hellish. It sounds like things are going well and op is still responding to comments and advice actively. Hope their move goes well, weather has been rough all over the country these last few weeks.
OP has had all the ups and downs of motherhood, the worst parts of it all. She really has the patience of the earth. She'd make a great mom. The only thing I feel bad for in this case is that OP had to put her entire life on hold to take care of the kids. This is abuse to the peaks. Anyways, all the best to OP. Hope things get sorted out and they thrive. May fortune come to you.
your nani has no right to ask forthat cousin to live with you all espceially she dont help and hes toxic you older sister pity your siblings need you hero sister and brother
Im sorry for OP, but they are gonna be doing this for the rest of her life or until she gets thicker skin the older sister called her an enabler, and im sad to say, she kinda is by taking the baby she signaled her mom that she will take care of any new baby she has so the mom is 100% sending more babies her way i just know in some months we will get another update about a new baby
Thing is, the mom was already gonna do it anyway. She already had like 10 kids and pushed them off on an older sibling or, in the case of The Baby, on a pair of random addicts. It doesn't matter if she takes them in or not. And if she doesn't, the only person suffering from that would be the baby.
@@okmeowokmeow the thing is the babies future isnt 100% fucked, they can go to good families, the problem is that OP wont take the chance, so the mom will keep popping babies and OP wil keep taking them in, at elast if she didnt take them, the mom shenangans would stop affecting her.
They should really be looking into some kind of open adoption for the baby because having that many kids, they’re not going to grow with good opportunities or the same kind of emotional care they’d get where they are the only kid in a house. I get wanting to keep the family together and make sure the baby is taken care of, but why take away her chance at a better life?
@WolfMoon532 who's chance? The baby's or OP? Adoption is complicated and it's traumatic. It's already going to be traumatic enough for the baby but they can grow up with siblings so at least they will have some connection
@@WolfMoon532There’s no guarantee they will have a good life being put up for adoption. Nothing was stopping the mother from having 1 mil kids before. This won’t stop her now. OP is doing the best she can. Refusing the baby won’t stop the mom but it will unnecessarily punish and isolate the baby who was innocent in everything.
Agreed, like i’m glad the baby is doing ok in that environment but by taking the baby all she’s doing is showing her mom that if she has more children then she will just take them in. it is enabling whether she likes to hear it or not. i’m not saying she should or shouldn’t keep it but it’s enabling her moms bad behavior.

Scaling Stories had discontinued using background music because they got a lot of comments saying that it gives off the wrong tune/vibe on those Reddit posts
So, as far as I (34, childless male) understand, a woman that hasn't been pregnant can be induced to start lactating just by having a baby suck on her milkless breasts. That being said, it would be a massive understatement to say that switching to having OP breastfeed her youngest sibling would bring about a lot of huge changes. First of all, that would mean that she'd need to massively increase the water, calories, and a lot of other nutrients she's consuming as producing the milk biologically to feed that baby will suck that out of her body rapidly, with one example being that a woman with a month-old baby of her own was forced to be on what her MIL thought was a normal diet, not accounting for the breastfeeding the woman was doing, and it sapped nearly enough calcium out of her body that her teeth were in danger of falling out from her body mining them for the calcium to continue her body's muscular functions and structural integrity of her skeleton. My advice would be to start seeing a dietitian and a specialist in artificially inducing lactation if OP wants to go that route.

First of all you’re a trooper for this long story. Love it
Secondly I’m truly wishing OP the best for all of this. Like they are an actual angel

Do you have the name of the post on Reddit? I couldn’t find it and want to follow her updates❤
45 mins, 10 updates?? *picks up popcorn*

Omg, this mom is freaking nuts. Am I right, the baby is 10 kids?😮
Possibly more, I’m betting
Yeah and the dad needs to just… be a better human too. And we know the dad has more kids than the 10. They both need to be more responsible.
Situations like this is why kids chose to never have kids
Love this absolute saga. Hope OP continues to update and that things work out with the move.
Its like combining TV shows, "Full House" and "Shameless".

All these kids are so psychologically damaged, im hoping they break the cycle of abuse with the help of their wonderful older siblings
ON the third update and am sooo worried about this 7 year old. Behavior like that towards sleeping is generally indicative of traumatic event(s) or enviroment.
Honestly, for a while I was worried about potential csa 😢
@@WowIWish I wouldnt have been suprised if the dad did it
I hope everything works out for everyone except the mother and father.
How can a 19 yr old be made responsible!!
Exactly. OP has her whole life ahead of her, the best thing for young siblings is placement with foster/adoptive parents.
you and your brother deserve reward ill pray for you all
Op and Matt but op especially are angels sent from heaven fr
Saint OP.

I'm sorry but she should of reported her to the police .... Jesus that's ridiculous

Omg I was waiting to long enough to get others thoughts, was not expecting a long video
10 UPDATES?? y’all, someone grab the tea, popcorn and all the chocolate
And a box of tissues, it's a sad but hopeful ride 🥲
Im gonna need more updates
Your doing well and just keep moving forward 👏 😊
Does this remind anybody of the show shameless?
that’s exactly what I was thinking. It’s really sad how badly OP was let down by her mum
your nani has no right to ask forthat cousin to live with you all espceially she dont help and hes toxic you older sister pity your siblings need you hero sister and brother
Her parent just a baby producer
You forgot to write new update in the title (you covered this story 6months ago)
The CRAZY!!!!!
Locked up in a mental hospital 😮
Im sorry for OP, but they are gonna be doing this for the rest of her life or until she gets thicker skin
the older sister called her an enabler, and im sad to say, she kinda is
by taking the baby she signaled her mom that she will take care of any new baby she has
so the mom is 100% sending more babies her way
i just know in some months we will get another update about a new baby

Long story,I like it 😻

The sister isn't wrong, though she is enabling the mom. What if the mother comes back with 2 more babies?
