Maria Hennessy, yeah, he seems like a real sweetheart, very selfless. I'd go mad with so many women around all the time. And I'd think my spouse was mad for wanting them all to live there forever, lol!
I get the feeling that Tracy didn't have many friends when she was younger so she's treating her kids like they're her best friends. Like ain't no mother going to go to the club with her children.
I go to the club with my adult sons and their friends. They actually let me know when shows are happening and ask me to go. We aren't co dependent we just enjoy some of the same music. When they were young I introduced them to music and as they got older they introduced me to music. We don't drink alcohol so it's not like they need me to drive them home. We just have a unique relationship. I also look young enough that most people think we are brothers and sister or a couple when we are out in public. One of my sons is married and I adore his wife who is about to have my first grandchild.
Now Tracy on the other hand needs to learn to let go and let her children grow up. She definitely doesn't take care of herself enough and needs some hobbies outside of her children.
'They're just always there making a mess"..but you wanted to homeschool. Also I find it a little disturbing the mother saying her children don't need friends outside of the family. isolating much?
Tracy is terrible to her man. She won't give him any of her attention. She goes out with him once a year because she is so busy creating codependent adult children.
On all these big family shows all the kids are having babies in their teens as well. And Charlie's relationship doesn't stand a chance with a mother like that!!
Oh, sure, blame everything on the mother. He’s a grown man who proudly talked about convincing his sisters to look after him and wrote off instances when they didn’t “cooperate” as due to mood swings rather than the fact that he ought to look after himself. And this despite a clear example of a man pulling his weight in his father. With or without his mother his poor girlfriend had a rough road ahead if that was his attitude.
are the older kids contributing financially? I truly hope so, because I would feel bad doing that to my parents and I still live under their roof and they give the way their parents do.
I like Tonya and Mike. Nice to see someone not feeling the need to march to the norm. Why not live the way you want to and be independent? My hats off to them!
Came here to suggest that. When you have a big family especially you need to have rules and structure to keep it all together. I would be color coding my children or writing their name on a coin plate, bowl and silverware, lol. Some of those children are old enough to do dishes and clean up around the house already.
All my kids have a water bottle and that’s what they use for their water at all times! I don’t keep pop or juice in the house, so they don’t need anything but a water bottle. (Now when I buy them a pop for a treat, they don’t even finish it. Lol It makes them more thirsty!).
Man it's insane what some people's mother's do for them. My mother moved to a new house when I turned 18 and said there wasn't a room for me and my brother but there was somehow a whole room for ironing clothes
MaMoBae as an only child I just want to say you don’t know how lucky you are. I would give anything to even have one sibling, these huge families seems so fun, so much love, and chaos lol
3/6/18....USA.... Silly how this woman with 13 kids is out partying with her oldest 5 girls instead of taking care of herself & her health after having 13 babies in 29 yrs! She has NO friends & NO family outside her hubby & kids. It's like she doesn't want to grow up---just be with her over- supervised kids. The kids will NEVER understand how other people feel about friends & ourside activities.
people commenting about the mom of 12 being a control freak might be true. But I feel those children are more closely knit internally than the charles family and they will feel much bad if ever they fly away. It will be a two sided thing, not just a one sided, like his parents feeling bad about him leaving, without him caring much, and his parents preparing food and snacks for the party while all relaxing in separate rooms and some of them not even showing up for dinner. Don't know, but home schooling parenting style is not at all bad if it brings all the family at an equal level where everybody is contributing and caring for each other.
She wants her kids to think independently, but they must believe family is the most important thing and she controls what they have access to and whom they talk to. Right.
Tracy gets on my nerves. She seems obsessed with her kids (especially her daughters) and showing them off. She doesn't seem as emotionally mature as the other mothers on this show. And how come none of them of the kids got married before popping out kids? I don't think the girl even has her boyfriend in the picture!
Yo Mama My husband and I were pregnant with our third on our wedding day! Fifteen years late and we’re still happily married. Don’t need to be married to start your family!
With these strong parents with giant families; it makes you wonder why some can't manage 1 or two without them turning out to be tantrum spewing brats! SMH
What a spoiled little man child. His poor gf having to deal with that, lord! It’s crazy that the mom is so happy to tend to those grown kids hand and foot every single day. What a nightmare. I rather like Tanya. She seems to have a good head on her shoulders especially about self sufficiency and keeping the kids away from peer pressure and the trash that goes on in this world.
I actually really like Tanya and her family. All she wants is to be away from the government and society as possible. I think it makes sense and she's actually a really realistic down to earth person
Can't seem to like either of the families in this. I think that it's fine to want to grow your own food and stuff but your children don't seem to get out that much.. what about when they are older? They don't really have experience. And poor Charles' girlfriend, she's going to have to get used to the way he's been living for 25 years
Lisa Brand what’s wrong with not buying groceries at the store? She has 12 kids and you really expect her to bring all of them to the store? Especially since she needs food every week.
I think its just the lighting. It would be breast milk that is about halfway between the initial colostrum mothers get and the normal white breast milk you get later on. Its very thick and can appear to have a dark yellow/orange tinge to it
I mean do what you want but Tania seems to be cutting her kids off from the whole world, no school, limited access to the internet, wanting to make them live on a farm in the middle of nowhere, I understand that kids who are home schooled can still have a lot of communication with other people but these kids seemed very sheltered
Oh god these woman's are not allowing their kids to be independent especially Tracy she has adults living in her house she needs to stop treating those young woman's as kids. Tonia seems to be isolating her kids is ok to be self sufficient and different but it would be nice if the kids were given the ability to make choices and go outside especially the older ones.I really don't understand why she took the farm to the house instead of taking them to a farm. This woman's are dependent of their kids emotionally and that is not ok.
They'll have to deal with the outside world one day when they're adults. She won't be able to prevent them from reality forever. She is fooling herself.
Tanya divorced her husband, said he was abusive and she's now a fitness guru/model/whatever and I don't think she thinks any of that anymore. I think it was his influence.
lady finn untrusting? She said she wanted to be self sufficient and not have to rely on others as much as possible. I think that's a great mindset. More people should work towards that
She’s not “untrusting” just because she doesn’t agree with the lax morals and nastiness of the world. Some people still have old fashioned values about self sufficiency and family.
Tracy never had friends...poor husband.. tryn drag her out for their wedding anniversary.. nd she's like we only need one night out a year coz we 're so happy with running around after the kids.. nd that son.. wtf
Sorry but at some of those " kids" being in their 20's. If I were them I would want to be out on my own. Or as a parent encouraging them to become more independent
Wooow!!! 8 daughters? and not one of them have a serious relationship or even married? Not to sure about her maternal teachings.She really needs to let go so they can have a wholesome life of their own.
I am the oldest of 15. My oldest daughter has an aunt and uncle younger then her my son has his aunt younger then him. I have 3 kids my self and 2 step sons and one of my sister's has one daughter and the other has one daughter and is pregnant. Me and my husband have been trying for my 4th his 3rd and are 6th together
It's the other way round for me. I think both sets of parents must have some issues if they feel the need to have that many kids, but when I compare the mothers I feel like the one with the 12 girls always choses to act in a way that is beneficial to herself, while the other one has her children's best interest in mind.
I think she swims upstream, and that rubs people the wrong way. Her desire to do things without assistance makes us think how much we rely on modern conveniences. Maybe too much, maybe just right. I think she's probably right and we've gone a little far over the edge. Family, handwork, ingenuity, and self reliance seem to fade into the background.
Is Charlie's mother living her dreams realized by her girls? I want to be a popular girls so I made mine so and so I am? I'd freek out if my mom picked me up from a bar at 18 and be ''forced'' to go on alllllllllll sundays to a family meal. Leaving family home at 25 because your girlfriend is pregnant!15min down the road! That's not mooving out! Mom will always get nosing around! Charlie's girlfriend will be stuck with his mom.... might turn bad! She shurely likes control! dod's eyes look happy that his son is mooving out .... and looks like he wants his freedom back acting like she wants him to. He loves his kids and is happy they fly :/ let the darn kids live by themselfs, be free super mom!
One visit too many and Charles' girlfriend will have a big problem.Hmph he broke away long enough to get into bed with someone. That's way Too many Girls in one house. "I" couldn't do it.eeewww
It is normal to have a three-child child, and the child after the third child will have low intelligence and weak physical strength. The second generation of intermarriage intermarriage is mostly mentally handicapped and disabled.
