Crazy Middles and 22 Kids

[Meisify2]

Did anyone watch their assumptions video? Apparently they have been discussing adopting more kids!

Notice how when crystal had surgery and was unwell she was off camera. Shame she doesn’t give her kids the same privacy

Imagine if it was one of the kids having surgery. I can just imagine the thumbnail of the kid recovering, the title ‘HE HAD SURGERY!!’

They really don't mind letting us know that Cynthia is the obvious favourite. They said they were taking the middle kids as they hadn't been taken out for a while and obviously Cynthia, but tell us other older kids wanted to go too. They should have drawn a name from the hat or something.

I was thinking the same thing. And sweet Lizzy was taking care of the little ones. Lizzy is way too good for this family.

Why are these families so obsessed with their kids settling down young? They’ve hardly had any freedom or experienced life. I’m in shock and feel bad for them, their focus shouldn’t be getting pregnant or married while still in their teens. They have no self discovery, travelling or careers. You can’t even drink alcohol in America before you’re 21, Lacey’s got a baby at 19 and Alex has proposed at 19

I think that Jamie is really sweet and needs to be protected. I‘m not sure if it’s a good idea that she is living with Christal. It might be confusing for her and Aurora.

yeah i think its gota be super confusing for Jamie. I think her reborn doll was a red flag for how she might be feeling about Aurora.

Spencer throwing ‘shade’ at Alex
The two no longer follow each other on insta, despite being close and posting pics of one another in the past
View attachment 1137049The CP insta account has also unfollowed spencer too
View attachment 1137032People wonder why there’s speculation over if any of the CM/CP kids are dating…. It’s because of captions like these. I’d never post a picture with my brother with a caption like that

someones commented asking if cynthia is his partner, someone else responded saying thats a horrible thing to ask, and the OP came back saying "whoaaa why would he write that about his sister??" other person says they need to not think dirty??? These fans are actually insane.

It's bloody hard to not think that when he literally puts a caption, that in no uncertain terms, would be a relationship caption to literally everyone else on the internet.

Lizzy is really unwatchable, im sure shes a lovely girl but i could not spend more than 5 mins in a room with her. On a side note im really impressed with how Addison braids Brinleys hair, it’s actually really impressive considering she hasn’t had training and doesn’t have the same hair type

Lacey: her name is Bexley Cove Lopez
Eli: hahah she got my last name before you!

Anyone else think it’s a dickhead thing to say? Especially after Lacey mentioned in the crazy middles’ vlog that she was doing wifey things for Eli on a girlfriend’s salary. Idk it just seemed weird thing for Eli to say on camera to me

Yeah, it's just a bit immature. Most wouldn't mention that, especially not on camera. It makes me a little sad as it just highlights how Lacey got pregnant so quickly into this relationship instead of doing all those travelling plans she had with her friend.

Bexley sounds like it should be Becky. Cove is pretty, but very influencer. Totally agree on the chavy feel, without being too Katie Hopkins, her siblings names are Tyler and Brooke.

I watched a video a couple weeks back with Eli in it, I didn't really get a great vibe from him. That could just be awkwardness on camera, but you'd think he'd put a bit of a warmer face on it. But then again, this was at the middles house and generally most 'extra' family members seem cold and awkward around them. I know I would be

I find Landon, Braxton, Anavaeh & Trey chavvy too though so maybe it runs in the family. If old Hopkins used those names as an example she'd have actually had a point lol. I haven't watched enough of Eli to comment as I don't watch Lacey's channel, but yeah I'd be keeping a firm distance from the middles, they'd drive me nuts

They’re so quick to welcome new people into the “family” it must make the kids see their adoptions as less special as they’ll happily let anyone in. Not that they aren’t great kids but it takes the sentiment away when they say the same thing for every kid
“We knew they were meant to be our daughter/son”
“They completed our family”
Then a couple years later there’s someone else who “completes” the family.

 

[lokencrepis]

Another reason they might be all moving out at 18, bar what everyone has said already, maybe they're making room for more kids to be adopted?

 

[Meisify2]

I think I was hoping he just looked older, as that makes it even creepier if he knew her when she was even younger

Something doesn’t add up with Nicole at all, she looks really awkward on camera and acts like she’s around strangers not family, Nicole seems to have lost weight, looks like she’s on something and generally doesn’t seem happy

I like what Josh's original mission was.... but I feel like he is now almost as bas as the family vloggers, he does very little to no research, he expects everyone to do it for him in his Facebook group and the live chat on any video is BUY JOSH A COFFEE! BUY A TESLA WITH JOSH"S CODE, the videos have a ton of ads, of course there is a patreon etc so he is making money of the back of the people he is snaking (which whatever they are putting it out there) but getting others to do the work for him because he ultimately can't be bothered.
I am not a fan of the "crazy" families or any other family vloggers but come on.....

This is what happens when you teach nothing but abstinence. Kids get a little freedom, have sex and don't even know how to use protection. Bam.

Although maybe it wasn't an accident. Maybe Lacey is afraid to actually live outside her bubble like she talked about. So she got that boyfriend and thought hey, let's start my own family channel and exploit my own kids for a living. Because we all know neither she nor her boyfriend are going to get a real job. Raising that kid won't be hard with the money her family has and the amount of babysitters around.

Blessing yada yada, I'd say parenting fail by Jared and Shelley and easy way out for Lazy Lacey.

ETA: Also, want to bet Cynthia moved out because Lacey was getting frisky with her bf and it made her hella uncomfortable to be 3rd wheeling to 2 h0rny teens?

This wouldn't surprise me at all. She seemed to be struggling to decide whether she wanted to go to college, travel the world, be a YouTuber etc. but she never once mentioned being a young mum. Really does seem like she got scared of the real world and saw being a parent as a shortcut.

I might be wrong, maybe plenty of parents are happy for their teen daughter to get pregnant to their boyfriend of a few months, but to me, Shelly & Jared being as happy as they were spoke volumes that they don't care for their kids in the same way that most parents do. I reckon Crystal & Aaron wouldn't be that thrilled if it was Halie or Ariana in a year or two.

But they always take Landon too. I think Brinley needs to be classed as a 'middle kid' now too

 

[Meisify2]

If Nicole grew up with her babys Dad, he must just look a lot older than he is.

They said he was a neighbour, so I guess he could be any age

 

[Meisify2]

The gender reveal was awkward to watch, compared to Lacey. It was boy/girl written on paper and some cannons out the front of the house, it’s like Shelley didn’t really want them to come in or go out the back.

And Jared made it clear he was keeping his distance from the boyfriend, he was polite but didn’t want to hug or shake hands like he normally would

from googling it apparently puppies in the US can leave their mothers and be vaccinated from 6 weeks.

To be fair we can (UK) vaccinate from 7weeks it just pushes their 2nd vacc later as you can’t 2nd vaccinate until 10weeks at the earliest. Also it’s quite safe as long as the pup has had 1 vaccine for it to socialise with fully vaccinated dogs in someone’s home.

6 weeks is way too young. If they don’t have another dog, this puppy will never know how to socialize properly. Those 2 weeks from 6-8 weeks, are important. Some dogs shouldn’t leave their moms until 10-12 weeks. A responsible, ethical breeder would never allow a puppy to go to a new home before 8 weeks

I know they were invited, but it is still ridiculous not to take everyone. And what a lie to say they do things with the little kids, they film almost everything and they never show them spending time with the little ones.

 

[LLR]

Do they actually kick them out once they don’t get paid for them?

Both families have had kids stay with them after 18. For CM Cynthia is 18 now and Lacey stayed after she turned 18 and graduated. For CP Alex is still in the house even though he is older, and one of his friends is also living with them. Most of them seem to move out but part of that might be wanting more freedom. CM had a video on their rule book for their kids (actually I think it was in 2 parts) and there were a lot of rules and they are obviously both LDS as well so even though they say they don't make any of the kids follow their religion that might add to the rules the kids feel they have to follow in the house.
