The Dad saying that he stuff like “I’ll help/spend time with you, IF you help me with the kids/chores” was so awful. In what world is it fair that he asks his step daughter to raise HIS three kids?! So selfish - they robbed her of her childhood completely.
I wonder since what age did she had to act like their mother, it's sad to think about that
@@shanarihn5810 I'd be willing to bet it's been like that since their birth or, if not, then 1 yo or smthing
SERIOUSLY. Melissa shouldn’t have to earn the bare minimum from him.
And she WAS helping with what he asked for her to help with
Not to mention she was ALREADY DOING THAT
I feel like the parents didn't realize how bad it was for the older sister. They can't hear them constantly screaming. They have no clue how hard it is to hear that all day everyday. Hearing screaming children all day is extremely stressful and they don't grasp how it impacts someone's mind.
I agree. They are trying but desperately need the bridge of communication to be built stronger.
@Paige Loren No, but it’s their fault they’re lazy & apathetic! They obviously raised one girl & they then gave up & left the parenting to her!
Yes I agree but imagine not being able to hear them at all?
Wise words lol I’m not even that smart to say that xd
I agree
Can we just appreciate that interpreter?? She didn't just translate the words...she translated the emotions and even the inflection and cadence of the parents words. She really went above and beyond!
Oooh, that's who the monotone person was? That was the interpretter? Sorry, I'm blind and can only listen to the show!
@@SarafinaSummers then how can you type
Her eyes don’t work, her fingers are fine.
@@RJ71409 There's a lot of ways that blind people can learn to type. There's an entire system dedicated to facilitating blind people on all types of technology these days. They can use talk to text, read the keys with brail, or simply memorize where each key is with the ability to hear the computer vocally read back whatever was typed.
@@RJ71409 or maybe the tts is really really good
So unbelievably heartbreaking that these kids actually MAKE FUN OF their parents' disability.
Disabled parents can still teach their children to communicate. ASL can be very easy to learn for younger ones.
Of course these kids are frustrated - they don't completely understand ASL or their parents' methods of communication. Why should they respect parents who don't care enough to understand them?
I mean why these kids didnt even have an emotional concern for their parents 😢 here even their parents are disable kids automatically respect elders 🤔 when i was 5 even i dont talk much i can understand why i should respect elders 😢 even they are strangers
@@lindziep6319They're that way because their parents are lazy and shoved their responsibility off to their eldest child. That's their fault
@@lindziep6319the younger ones aren’t old enough to understand,what is wrong with their parents.They need proper asl lessons,as soon as possible.
Wow. This is sad. These little girls are just being straight up disrespectful.
The parents should have taught all of their children sign language from birth.
how could they not ????
The older one knows sign language. I don't think I'd be able to teach 3 little devils sign language, even if my partner would help
@@vacantcrow Well Technically they should close the doors of the bedrooms so that they won't get out. Unless you're scared of the dark.
Yes!
I’m not deaf, but that’s what I’m gonna do with my kids
"Why don't you help? You're the sister." *You're* the father. Parenting *your* children is not your Stepdaughter's job. Not to mention she is helping. Its evident how much she helps considering her sister's actually listen to her but not to you.
Its annoying because that is what my mom does to me. I clean the house top to bottom while watching my 4 year old sister. To the point were everyone says that i am her mother. But then she gets to saying how i do nothing around the house. Now i dont do anything around the house. I dont clean i don't cook i dont nanny
@Jan Panting wow look at how many sh*ts we give
@Jan Panting I feel so bad for swearing to your daughter 😣
Exactly
She probably pays rent by watching her siblings. If she wants she can move out and pay way more for rent, foods and bills.
I completely understand the oldest daughters anger I really hope she’s doing well after all this
It’s almost like there’s 3 kids, 2 bystanders and 1 parent. I feel so bad for Melissa.
The oldest daughter is amazing young woman.

Very character building. Not that it’s fair though..
Unless she plans on putting her life on hold until the youngest turns 18, what will they do when she moves out?
The step-father robbed Melissa of her childhood. “i’ll spend time with you if you help with the kids”. That’s absolutely disgusting, only promising your STEP CHILD to spend time together as father and daughter if she does his work?
I felt AWFUL for Melissa. She was parentified by her mother and stepfather and parentification is absolutely abusive.
I felt bad for Melissa because although she good at sign language,it was tough for play so many roles
Exactly
Hm
@StarieFlare Studios She’s 18 now, but the oldest youngest sister is like 8, that means Melissa was probably doing that for several years before too.
Ikr, it’s really sad
Ikr
The dad was kinda gaslighting Melissa- He kept saying that he wishes she communicated more with him, which is him indirectly saying it’s Melissa’s fault for not talking. And when he listed the activities he wanted to do with her, it was all biased. The activities were all taking care of her sisters and teaching them ASL, He just kept pushing the parenthood to her. This really is hard for her. I wish the future treats her better
I hope she's better as wellz
@@biccnesse all of the people in the video are adults or young adults now
@@akeshathebest ah okay! Thank you!

You're not wrong though
The fact that none of their kids knows sign language shows severe neglect on the parents part. They should be ashamed and embarrassed 😳
its hard to teach your kids one language, let alone two plus there death so that makes it even harder.
@@carmengriffin3160 Ask for help to utilize the resources that are out there.
@@carmengriffin3160it’s actually quite easy to start babies out on sign language before they can speak English. My best friend has deaf parents and was fluent in both. They just didn’t care enough to teach them

It makes me sick how they kept trying to blame Melissa for all of this...she’s just trying her best to hold it all together, they should be so much more thankful and appreciative of her
It's all about them, isn't it?
Me too
If I were her I'd threaten to leave, ask the parents how they would deal with the younger ones without her
Ikr she’s a teenage girl, not their other mom.
It makes me livid. My mom's disabled and she's used me sometimes, it's easy to rely on someone you know won't deny you. But when I told my mom how I felt she realized and she felt horrible. She apologizes any time she asks me to do something that might be difficult to me, she's constantly thanking me she makes it CLEAR she appreciates me and my efforts to help

Massive respect for joe looking and talking to the parents, not the interpreter
Parents who use their eldest children as stand-in parents irritate my soul. 😤
Not related but I love the drawing /painting in your dp 😍
Maybe they weren't doing that and just needed the help Im not judging them
it's... a normal thing in loads of countries??? Especially since the parents are helpless and can't do anything. How is it their fault they're deaf?
Unfortunately, it's very common. I have six younger siblings and my mom always expected that I'm always there to help her. I was the one listening to her problems while I just bucket up my feelings and couldn't tell somebody about my problems. I love my mom and my siblings, but it's definitely not easy being the oldest sibling.
It messes them up in the long run.
Poor girl missed the end of her childhood and all of her teen years from age 9-18. I would've moved out, I couldn't deal with that bs. She's so strong
Even at the end, they didn't think about how nice it would have been to take her on the cruise with them instead of letting her stay home and worry about responsibilities as usual.
I’m sure she feels too guilty to leave. It’s heart breaking :/ I’m not even half way through.
@@severianna9 exactly. I couldn’t leave my family like that no matter how hard or irritating it is.
Seriously, as soon as she is self sufficient, I bet she will barely ever go home. These parents drained her.
And the kids are doing would have been notey
Melissa has her own beautiful baby boy and will probably be such an amazing momma
Can we just appreciate all the work jo puts in to help family’s get back on track, what an absolute icon.
Sadly, Melissa’s case is more common than people really think. Most teenagers are expected to get jobs and take care of their younger sibling instead of being able to enjoy their teenage years
do not forget, to take care of nieces and nephews.
That was my problem when I turned 9.
@@irisravenhild9060 I take care of my niece and nephew, I don't mind, but I started taking care of them when I was 15.
Exactly, they shouldn't be given the responsibility of taking care of their siblings, that's the parents job.

Being the oldest suuuucks
Jo is like the Gordon Ramsay of nannying.
HaHa!
Yep
Lmao😂😂😂
Omg this makes sense lmao
Minus cursing and yelling, but basically yes lol
I love how much jo did sign language too
this was definitely the parents fault. failing to teach their children proper sign language and not disciplining them properly.
I feel like every time there's and older sibling, either they're brats and jerks and emos, or they're another parent

Deaf or not some parents use their first kids are caregivers and maids for their new partner and kids.
That's literally what is happening to me and my older sister, except without the new partner but rather 4 little shits who weren't disciplined like me and my sister.
That’s true. Just look at the Duggars. They chose to have 19 kids, but their oldest girls were the ones who raised their younger siblings and cleaned the house, cooked for everyone, etc etc. All the mom did was birth them and supposedly nursed them for 6 months. Heck, their oldest daughter Jana is around my age (I’m 31) and still lives at home taking care of siblings. Those poor girls never got to have normal childhoods or be normal teenagers 😔
@@brittaniesidebottom omg and you're so right cause it's always the girl children to feel it.
@@Nini_473 yeah, there’s an actual term people used to refer to it “eldest daughter syndrome”, and it’s basically when the eldest girl in the family ends up parenting her younger siblings (and even sometimes older if her elder siblings are assigned male at birth) if they are around 3 years younger
This is exactly how my parents are.
I'm most shocked by the fact that the parents didn't teach the kids asl. Imagine speaking French and teaching your kids Spanish. Wild
They should have brought someone in to teach them. It may have been hard for them.
Imagine being an immigrant parent and not teaching your kids the language you were born in. Wild but really common
@@ChazoAnwah
My mother was born and raised in Spanish, and when she was 18 or 19 my mother immigrated to the U.S. Myself and my younger brother were born there and were raised using primarily English, leading to is knowing little Spanish. Least to say that parties with other family members who don’t know much English is awkward.

I wouldn’t say fluent, but I am able to understand some of what they are saying and use that to decipher the conversation.

I don't get it, you can teach sign language to hearing infants & toddlers before they are verbal to increase their communication skills, why on earth didn't two deaf parents do it?
Gave up too easily
The girls wouldn't learn they won't listen
@@amandamcdonald8199 The OP wanted to know why the parents didn’t teach the kids to sign starting in infancy, as that’s what most deaf parents do. They weren’t out of control when they were infants.
Probably also internalized ableism.
Might be harder to do with more children
Anyone else notice Melissa called Kip dad at the end of the video instead of calling him Kip like she did throughout the rest of the video? It really warmed my heart.

One thing that stood out for me is that Melissa had to finger spell "respect".... that word must have been used so infrequently that she didn't learn the sign

Love that Jo pronounces her words more instead of talking louder.
Me too!
Yes! And the fact that she looks at them while talking rather than the interpreter!
Ok.
Thats the way its should be...
Only uneducated people think otherwise.
Her English is standard English, is the English that should be spoken around the world . The same thing is with the Standard Spanish from Spain.
“She’s the sister”
You decided to have kids, not her to have sisters so YOU take care of your kids
Exactly it was really irresponsible for the parents to not take responsibility for the kids that they had, it was not the sisters responsibility as she was 19 working two jobs came home doesn't get rest immediately starts to work with the children. And on top of that kip isn't helping her at all
Welcome to the hellscape that is the life of the eldest daughter.
It's exactly this omw !
Time out is the cause of emotional anger and issues. I don’t buy it, never have and never will be.
sarunya na songkhla no it's not? It's hitting your child or emotionally telling them
I hope Jo suggest the parents put the children in ASL learning classes.That would to communicate and understand
Honestly, it's no wonder Melissa doesn't respect Kip or want to spend time with him. Literally expecting her to raise HIS daughters and then wondees why none of the four girls have respect for him..

Even when my mom had emergency surgery and was in pain, she never let my older sibling bare her responsabilities.

@@Travelbyailsa still doesn’t mean she wasn’t trying to teach them 🥴
How is it possible to be so disconnected from your own children? I see no affection, respect, understanding and love... so sad.
I'm really glad for Jo. She used peaceful, calm discipline
and love. Now the kids have their parents back.
For those who think the parents should have known better, I want to share this: I'm hearing but took ASL in school. One thing I learned that surprised me was that because they can't talk with most people, they are often REALLY out of the loop in terms of societal expectations and even values. It's harder to know what's "obvious" when what's obvious to others was taught to those people very young but not to the Deaf people, since they couldn't interact.
So it's really sad about how everything was when Jo/ Super Nanny got there, but it's not as obvious for some Deaf people.
Plus they were really open-minded and listened to Jo really well. That's wonderfully amazing!
I hope they're doing great!
I fell like the mom genuinely cares about how Melissa feels..

It is not only them expecting eldest sibling(s) to chip in to help in any way possible. I have seen it everywhere. I am glad Melissa managed to get the burden off and she is mature to be willing to let bygones be bygones. Bless her heart! Both parents should be commended for willing to try and try to do what Jo is recommending
"3rd parent" as in practically the ONLY parent. She missed her entire teen-hood. Unfortunately, people WILL experience teen-hood at SOME point. Sometimes not til their mid-20's or 30's, but it WILL manifest. I've never seen that end well.
So true. Arrested development.
Ha ha this is true, I spent my teen years taking care of my baby sister and now I’m a hot mess
@Celtic girl they were socialized and groomed inro the role. In some societies even now young girls take on these roles. It doesn't make it right tho.
@Celtic girl those young mothers live their teen years vicariously through their kids. It was never cost free.
@Celtic girl girl hush up.
How many people are mad because Melissa is the built-in mom, & the real mom had no idea it was stressing Melissa out? Did anyone else buy that excuse? Yah... me either.
Mom is basic.
It is possible if Melissa really hadn’t communicated this clearly. People are often blind to personal issues even when those issues are obvious to others. Also, it struck me that Melissa was so focused on helping because of the compassion she had for her parents predicament that she’d never clearly expressed her own pain in the process to keep from adding to her parents stress.
They little girls know sign language they are just acting the clown it's the first language they knew as babies you can't forget it 😉 that's why the hide there eye contact with the parents. Smart arseses
It was weird that when the mom had put the kid in time out and Melissa just came in and overrode her. Notice the kid didn't run to Melissa, she went straight to the kid.
Why do I think theres something more than what's shown with the oldest daughter and stepdad...
Children learn what they’re taught. 😡
I love that they actually show the ASL interpreter and that Jo talks to the parents and not the interpreter. You wouldn’t believe how often people will talk to the interpreter and not the Deaf person. 🤦♀️
The mother can speak and can read lips
So rude, right?
I think for some it's habit not disrespect.
people that hear react more to sound. it's not being rude it's just confusing
It’s good manners to always talk to the person directly. Most of the the time interpreters will remind you of that if you aren’t speaking to the client.
No offense but they should of just stopped at one. Mellissa seems so nice & I doubt any of her siblings could ever top that.
She isn't the dad's daughter. But they should only have had one after that.

@@crazikat4881 i agree, really has nothing to do with them being deaf but instead being bad parents and really giving Melissa oldest sister syndrome
Hey man, careful there. Getting into eugenics territory. I think the fact that they're deaf certainly made things difficult, but im willing to bet they'd have pushed Melissa to be the "third parent" regardless of their disability. Hearing parents do that plenty often
There's no such thing as perfect parents, I'm sure they didn't plan on not getting respect from their children and having their eldest do their job
@@okwuchiogechukwu1171 they literally said she needs to do more, did you not watch the video?
They’re making her the primary parent. It’s not necessary, but it makes it easier for them, so they don’t care
“They don’t listen” made me laugh I’m going to hell 😂
Imagine your three kids acting like “Mean Girls” towards you
Those children were *enjoying* bullying their parents. You could see it in their faces.
I agree
I enjoyed it too! 😃
I’m sorry but that level of disrespect had my mouth on the floor
@@cnb1243 Yup, meeeee tooooo!
@@cnb1243 right ! Made me reconsider hitting kids as discipline
Bruh. One thing I wish was included is teaching the parents to actually listen and validate. Melissa was expressing and expressing and expressing how she was feeling, how she genuinely was experiencing the situations and was CONSTANTLY invalidated, being told she's wrong and it didn't happen like that. That's gaslighting. But also, no wonder she'll walk away first, it HURTS to be open and vulnerable only to be told you're wrong and you don't experience what you say you experience. That really should've been addressed.
That's also teaching her that she shouldn't express her feelings or that she's over emotional when she's not.
Exactly, this is actually one episode I'm disappointed in for that very reason. I kept waiting for Jo to shut down the parents & call them out on them taking advantage of their daughter. When she started telling her mom to shut up so she could finish speaking, I was happy Jo stepped in & backed her up but shocked me that she then turned & gave that same sign to Melissa. No wonder she ran out!
They really should have spent more time on the parents lack of accountability in that area especially
That’s my whole life
Agree!!!
I can *totally* relate :(
They should not be allowed to put their hands on one another like that!
THAT fighting and smacking each other wouldn't be happening in my household!
I want to see where these families are today and if they ever got better
I have so much respect for that mom for stepping away before she blew up on her kids
Thats true I respect her for that. Same with the daughter who didn't blow up either she walked away as well
Yeah they Don't All Do that
That’s true I respect her for that .same with the daughter who didn’t blow up either she walked away as well
Yeah they all don’t do that

I'm just confused on how they had 3 younger kid's who didn't understand sign language whatsoever. I mean you teach your child when they're young, so I don't get it but I tell you one thing I hope those kid's learned sign because that's an amazing communication skill to have. Especially in the work force.
Yeah they need to learn sign language even by force it is so important we never know what will happen in future
The little ones didn't learn to sign because the parents don't interact with any of the kids. That is why the big sister is the acting parent. It almost seems like they don't want to be around the kids because the kids can hear.
They might not be 100% fluent. But I am willing to be they know ALOT more than they let on. They know if they pretend not to understand, they can get away with anything.
@@DTQ true
@@valzeppelin5153 yeah they don’t know much sign language because they are raised by the older sister and she communicates by talking to them instead of signing.
The way the mom kept nodding when Melissa was listing the stuff she was used for like babysitting, cleaning and looking after her sisters was horrible
Nodding in ASL communicates that you are listening. It doesn't always indicate agreement.

This show is the worlds best birth control.
Started watching it back in middle school and it heavily contributed to me being cf. they don’t get paid enough I swear
Really? This just motivates me to have children and raise them to be decent humans. It’s pretty hard to get to this point
To each to their own, helps both groups in my opinion and gives the facts of life
Agreed!
😭😂😂😂
cf children free ig it took me so long to figure that out lol
Melissa is the type of person that is used to helping everyone but isnt used to getting help
yep
Like me smh
Ever since she was what, 11 or 12 probably? 💔🥺 I cannot imagine. The parents expecting Melissa to fulfill their role, is completely bonkers!
I am so confused about how these parents raise their children. So basically they don’t teach them sign language. They make their 18 year old daughter to do all of their work! And their father does nothing!? I feel so so bad for Melissa!
Bro leave the 3 girl on dark forrest for 5 hours
I’ll say it once I’ll say it again. Just because you decided to have multiple kids doesn’t mean the oldest has to care for the youngest, they get to enjoy their lives too and should never have to parent until they have kids of their own
Yes the oldest girl always gets the heavy load. “She is the ‘example’ for the younger ones. She gets the least parental attention,except to be told how she is failing to do enough.
Exactly 💯 💯 💯
Go tell that to the Duggar family 😂😂😂
"don't take advantage of me as your daughter" ... I love that.
I wonder why mom and dad didn’t start there children off learning sign language
Because they are lazy
they tried to teach those devils but their kids were to lazy to learn even one word
So glad I can’t relate to the bedtime shenanigans! Had 3 and was blessed with awesome memories and behavior.
