My husband was going to write a comment, but then decided he couldn't be arsed... He was going to write 'the only book worth reading is the one coming out in about 10-15 years time, by the kids, explaining what their life has been like living in the SJ household'.

long time lurker, usually never post on these but i feel like i Cannot anymore. sorry if this is a lot but i'm really mad
i'm a trans dude. NOTHING jonathan is doing is helpful to our community and he does not care about us. if eduardo is truly questioning/exploring his identity, he does not care on any level deeper than "i can exploit this for money". otherwise he would not put it on show almost everyday. if a child is genuinely exploring and questioning their gender identity, you nurture that but you allow them the privacy to navigate it on their own. why does it have to be on show practically every day? why does this seven year old have to put on that burden for people to be more understanding? they act like they care and theyre such good parents but all this is doing is opening him up to all kinds of abuse. jonathan has one intention and its to exploit his child for quick views and money. and i fear there's even more disturbing intention behind that too

also he clearly does not give a shit about trans people because if he did he'd use his platform to talk about how fucked trans rights are in the UK right now. it takes one google search or talking to one british trans person to know what it's like. i feel unsafe in coming out and access to medical transition feels impossible. it honestly makes me a little sick thinking about the mental turmoil myself and my friends go through trying to fight for our rights meanwhile this grown ass man is out here like "look how accepting i am!!! i let my son wear dresses isnt that revolutionary!!!". its important to remember that the LGBTQIA community is ultimately, a movement, and pride is a protest. we have fought and been KILLED for our rights and there is still so much to be done around the world and it honestly feels like hes just hijacking the whole thing?? i also remember in his podcast he and anna talked about "mourning the straight person" if their kids came out so like. he does Not give a shit about us.

jonathan does not care about his kid's identity because he doesnt even give him the privacy nor freedom to explore it himself. perhaps eduardo does enjoy dress up and typically "girl" toys (which is completely natural!!! hes a kid!!!), but its clear that every time hes dressed up for tiktok and youtube and instagram, its not his choice. its jonathans choice and he is perfectly happy to exploit his child in this way. and for someone who cares so much about changing the world for "people like eduardo", this behaviour is the exact thing that transphobes are gonna see and use against the community. it makes me so sick in so many different ways. there is so much depth to being trans, so much struggle and trauma but also so much celebration of identity and gender euphoria and it shapes your entire life and jonathan is, at best, presenting the most shallow take of it ("allowing" eduardo to wear a dress whilst not giving a shit about the actual community's fight for rights) and at worst he's exploiting his seven year old son for views and money in a way that's totally disturbing, damaging, dangerous and a complete disregard for his childs wellbeing and safety. he makes me sick. on behalf of the entire trans community, this is totally horrifying. i wish i could get eduardo and all those children out of that house

After seeing the pics of Emilia posed like that and called a 'teen' at 9 years old, I'd like to remind anyone new to the SJs that when Stacey Dooley did a documentary she asked both Anna and Jonathan 'what would you do if paedophiles were masturbating to pictures of your children?', to which Anna stood there and said nothing like the usual Barbie doll she is, and Jonathan actually replied 'would that be that bad?'

Just Checked Amazon and his Book "All My Friends are Invisible" release set for 3rd of Feb 2022....
About the Author Jonathan Joly was born in Dublin in 1980. After several torturous years of childhood bullying, abuse and chronic misunderstanding from both adults and his peers, he was sent to a school for children with emotional difficulties. On finishing school, he floated from one career path to the next, eventually landing at university to study multimedia. It was here that he met Anna Saccone, and in 2009 Jonathan and Anna started creating YouTube videos about their lives from their small flat in Cork, Ireland. Over the next twelve years, as the couple married, had children and moved to the UK, they became one of YouTube's most beloved families internationally. Across their social channels they now have over 7 million devoted followers and friends. All My Friends Are Invisible is Jonathan's first book.

Is this the Announcement?

Recap:
Considering we've filled a thread in ~5 days there's lots to talk about
- J announced his book "All My Friends Are Invisible" about his childhood abuse (?) bullying and how he created this imaginary world to deal with that in a video called "Coming Out" (no he doesn't come out, we'll get there). Ranging from the years 1980-1993 we fail to see how this is the adventure he's been on in the last 6 months other than he got a book deal
- He talks about one of his imaginary friends Giselle who he realised is him... As a child he felt like a girl inside but in 1980s Dublin he wasn't allowed to express that so he repressed it into an imaginary person which disappeared after childhood and returned after a panic attack at an airport in 2016
- "I am Me, Giselle is She, but I am her too" is a quote from his IG Q+A I'm pretty sure
-What does Anna think about this? Well apparently she's his biggest supporter and was the first one she told because his imaginary friends said to trust her, 14 years ago, when they were meant to be non-existent according to the blurb. It's tough to keep up
- Back to the title of the video, he doesn't come out as transgender, androgenous, non-binary, gay, bisexual or anything that would place him into the LGBTQ+ community. In his IG Q+A he actually says he doesn't want to label himself but he doesn't fit into the community, so yeah he just used the LGBTQ+ community that had been working so hard for acceptance and equality to sell a book, better believe it
- Also, he admitted in his video that he is getting Eduardo to live out his childhood dream of dressing up as a girl, so whether Eduardo likes it or not is no longer part of the question, it's J pushing him to do it
- Oh yeah the book is a best seller on Amazon, in computing manuals... So he, or the publisher, sketchily picked a small category just so he'd get the label - you can report this to Amazon for incorrect product information
- And so we get to the reaction. I've never seen a more negative response to this, I don't even think shower gate got this much of a reaction. From the countdown to the adventure actually being a countdown to the announcement of a book to the queerbait and clickbait, twitter went wild.
- So how did J react, well he blocked anyone and everyone who said anything that wasn't an arse licking "omg Jonathan I'm so proud of you for doing this" with a screenshot of their preorder
- Did I mention the book isn't out until February... So yeah "the adventure" is crap
- A lot of the members are even upset with the whole thing so you can imagine how wrong it all was to get through to people paying to watch their content
- He did an IGTV thanking everyone for the support, of which there was zero because of the reasons mentioned above, and everyone was confused
- The next day he posts on IG stories that the reaction was "bullying and mean" (it wasn't) which is why he didn't want to say anything but Anna thought it was a good idea so did it. This included a pouty selfie with the lyrics to The Greatest Showman copied and pasted directly from Google to gain sympathy points with the minions still brown nosing
- Oh and some good eyes noticed he changed his IG bio from "on an adventure to become me 🦄" to "preorder my book" so if you need any other proof this was all a cash grab, there you go.
- So far to my knowledge no commentary channels have picked the story up but we shall see what happens in the next few days incase they were waiting for more of a story to build?
- So what is everyone else in the house up to? Anna is taking the kids outside during the holidays, if it's good weather, otherwise I guess it's the playroom for them, Emilia is there, Eduardo being exploited in dresses continues (someone said that Eduardo said something along the lines of "I'll do this TikTok for you if you do this for me" to Jonathan, so "all his ideas" is bullshit), Alessia is there as is Andrea. They get fed nearly no food that's of nutritional value and it's all ice cream and chocolate.

Fin (or close enough to, absolutely feel free to add because I'm sure I have, it's 5:45AM where I'm writing this from HAHA)

Holy shit that's a lot of words, sorry guys 😂

I don’t believe that Eduardo is trans. I believe he’s a little boy playing a game with his father and he’s doing it because of all the attention. He cannot possibly comprehend the consequences of this.

At 14, my daughter came out as trans. She cut her hair short and asked everyone to call her Jackson. We said “sure, that’s nice dear”. After finding out where she got her information on how to transition we told her she was banned from being on Reddit and then we carried on but did what she wanted.

We emphatically refused to consider any hormones or binding because of the long term damage. We told her that when she was 18 she could do what she liked. I think it lasted about 6 months once she stopped being groomed by Reddit threads.

She’s now a happy 21 year old who wears skirts and makeup. She thanks us for giving her the space to explore while protecting her from her own teenage stupidity.

My heart breaks for this little boy who wants to wear dresses like his big sister. Let the boy breathe ffs.

Still catching up on this shitshow but just thought I'd post about a little win for us 'trolls' I had yesterday. I work in ecommerce for a fairly well known UK home\kitchenwares company, I spotted our marketing department was due to send out a rather large freebie order to Anna along with an affiliate code for her to promote. I wrote a comprehensive e-mail to our marketing director and marketing manager outlining all the past & present abuse those children have suffered at the hands of those parents along with all the evidence, news articles, screenshots, quotes, links and the 18 minute timeline of abuse video.

I also explained how they are exploited on Youtube and unable to give informed consent without knowing the impact it will have on their mental health further down the line etc etc. They immediately pulled the plug on using this family again and have stopped the order and affiliate code going out. They had no idea of the negative press surrounding the family, Anna's instagram separates her from the family YT channel and makes them out to look like at lovely happy family as she omits Jonathon from the pics, it's so deceiving, when will mainstream media report on these horror stories!!
Still take that Anna no free shit for you! 👊

Not a huge fan of the SJ parenting and all the current situation, and also agree the pics of E1 aren’t appropriate for social media/in general as it’s quite distasteful posing for such a young kid, but to jump straight to child p*rn etc is a bit far…
It's not jumping straight to that though. He was told, years ago, that Emilia's picture was used on child porn sites and he just replied 'there's a lot of weird websites out there friends'. He was told her pic was used on baby fetish sites, and ones that made fake baby profiles. Weird as fuck and instead of taking his toddler off youtube, he started posting more of the pics and videos he knew were liked on those sites. Many on GG years ago thought he was courting the paedos and even maybe taking money from them in order to post the videos and pics he used to take. Watch the yoghurt video and you'll be disgusted. He also talked about having a threesome with Anna and Emilia, and said that him and Emilia had joined the mile high club in a plane toilet. And watch the tiktoks he's got her her with a remote control in her mouth. He's also been told pics of his kids with their mouths wide open are likely to be used on porn sites and he just carried on using them. I'm not saying what he's doing with his children is child porn, I'm just saying he knows their pics can be used on dodgy sites and carries on. Make of that what you will

One of the comments that I read which is spot on:

"



7 minutes ago (edited)

There is no adventure. He saw that gender is a hot topic, saw the views he gets from Eduardo and is now using it for financial gain. Notice how he talks about identifying as female when he was a child, nothing about it now. Self identification is something that you can't argue against, so he knows no one can call him a liar. At the same time, he doesn't have to do anything except claim that he feels female at times, which tbh is hardly 'groundbreaking'. I also would imagine his family won't be particularly pleased with the way they have been portrayed here.

i actually feel sick. how dare he use this to profit off of, from personal experiences the transgender community is already not taken seriously and radiculed. my younger silbing is transgender, she was male assigned at birth and i watched as she grew up with gender dysphoria, supported her as she made the brave decision to go through gender reassignment surgery, and experienced the transphobia and discrimination she faced. jonathan knows NOTHING about this. how dare he use this topic for views and for money. how DARE he live through his young son and expose him to the same abuse as my little sister got, and documenting it online for millions to see, and to get even more hate.

is he going to get the kids to call him mum now? is he going to fully transition? or is he just going to put that title on himself for popularity and money? what makes it worse is that he even clickbaited the title, if someone who doesn't know them or used to watch them sees the title 'coming out', he would obviously get more views. i cannot believe the audacity of this man. i do not believe a word he says.

yeah, jonathan, all your friends ARE invisible. because you're a self absorbing, narcisstic asshole and nobody wants to associate themselves with you.
