Looks like one of those electric shock dog collars. Maybe Georgie is trying to train him 
Thanks for censoring his nipples, I am eating my lunch didn’t want to throw up
I don’t even ask with this family anymore
definitely some weird pseudoscience thingHaha i though it was funny since Mia and Georgie's nipps are always outThanks for censoring his nipples, I am eating my lunch didn’t want to throw up
Watching their homeschooling Q&A from today. Mia constantly taking over Sienna and answering for her. Darren asks Sienna a question and Mias like "oh I think Sienna means this". Girl shut up and let your sister talk
A 19 year old who’s turning 20 this year acting the way she does is so bizarre. She’s meant to be the mature older sister but there’s nothing mature about her. I’ve said this many times but if you didn’t know their ages you wouldn’t think there’s 7 years between her and Sienna , you would think Mia is only a year older because of how immature she is. The looks she gives Sienna sometimes , talking over her , speaking for her , making fun of her for being a kid and pressuring her to grow and act older , giving weird looks and smirks when Georgie or Darren ever give Sienna a compliment or praise her , it’s all very strange especially because of their age gap Mia should have the maturity to want to see her little sister praised and want her little sisters voice to be heard. Mia loves to be the centre of attention and I don’t think she can handle it when someone else gets camera time especially when it’s Sienna. Nobody in Mias life has ever told her to shut up and grow up which is something she has needed for a long time to be humbled and learn to mature.
Of course I know the way she’s been raised for years exploited by Darren and Georgie and isolated in this bubble with no socialising with people her age and having no real friends and bonds for years definitely has played a huge part in her being mentally stunted and immature so I know that’s not her fault because Darren and Georgie are responsible for how she’s turned out and they’ve fed her ego for years but at the same time there’s only so many excuses that can be made for her cause she’s 19 now she’s an adult , she’s been around people her age the last few years making friends or “friends” cause never know who’s genuinely her friend or not , she’s in or was in a relationship I don’t know if they’re still together and she’s responsible for who she is now and she should have common sense by now , she should want to act her age , she should know better by now and she should want to be a supportive older sister. I’m not saying she’s the worst person ever or that she’s never done anything good but I find her very unlikable and full of herself.
Agree with everything you've said. She believes the world revolves around her when it really doesn't. There's only so many excuses you can give someone until it's time they really need to re-evaluate their lives. She isn't special needs or anything, and even then Special needs children and adults know right from wrong and know how they should behave, yet Mia doesn't know any of this. Like you say she's 20 this year (hoping my baby isn't born on her birthday) and should now be accountable for her actions 100%
I completely agree with everything you’ve said too and it’s a shame Mia has nobody in her life who calls her out and puts her in her place because it would actually help her in the long run to mature. She really does believe the world revolves around her and it makes her so unlikeable. Exactly there’s people with special needs and people who are years younger than Mia who have more maturity and common sense because they know right from wrong. She should be held accountable for her actions!
Congratulations on your pregnancy
I hope everything goes well! also I’ll pray for you the baby isn’t born on her birthday hahaThey mention that the fact they home school means they can go to the local library where there are other children. Local libraries in the London area regularly have homework clubs, reading clubs, arts and crafts events that start after school, and some state schools go on regular visits to their local library, so the liklihood is that most of the children FamilyFizz see at the library are going there in addition to going to school.
They were saying they don't want the kids to over do it and not spend much time together so it's "easier" for them to do these things when no one else is around and so the kids can't get distracted. Also the kids will hear bad language and other stuff at gymnastics and the rock climbing anyway so what's the difference to that and going to school?

I haven’t watched but sounds predictably annoying. Imagine being so up your own that you genuinely believed that your influence and connection (and yours alone), is all your child ever needs.
What is it about other people they are so afraid of? What makes them and their kids ‘too good’ to integrate into society or to have genuine connections outside of the family? The mind boggles.

It’s because they can’t stand the idea of their children having independent thoughts and ideas that are different than their own.
An example that springs to mind is during Covid, they were very clearly in denial that there was a global pandemic. If the kids went to regular school they would have heard all about Covid, had to wear masks, be informed about vaccines etc.
Exactly, it's just another way of isolating and brainwashing them because D and G as parents don't accept the concept od individuality and adulting. They're selfish and morally rotten
The Hobbycraft video was absolutely ridiculous! The younger two were picking up stuff for the sake of it and didn't even know what they were picking up half the time. Even though it was no budget they should of drawn a line at points. I don't really understand why Mia was involved when I'm sure she has her own money to buy anything she wants.
Oh good God - the homeschooling Q&A made the situation look even worse. Finding a TedTalk isn’t “research.“ If Georgie stopped talking over Mia, Mia might stop talking over Sienna. Degrees don’t just show that you knew something ten years ago, but that you can systematically gain understanding of a subject and apply those fundamentals to further your knowledge. The reason we don’t learn everything through immediate action is that recording and transmitting knowledge is a huge accomplishment and it is a waste to learn things by trial and error that are really easy to learn from an existing pool of knowledge. Jesus Christ. The unspoken question of that Q&A was, how anti-intellectual do you want to be? And the answer was a resounding, Yes!
I wonder what Darren and Georgie were referring to when they mentioned content being taught at schools that the majority of parents don’t agree with?
Other than that: So Mia enjoys multiplication but not pie? So… the way they all insist she could take her GCSEs should she choose to, that really isn’t the case, is it? And the way Darren talks about knowing things like profits, good and bad debt, his understanding of maths is also basically just sums and cross-multiplication, and then, yeah, no wonder the children don’t get taught more than that. And if it’s a boy subject unlike English
Unbelievable. While it also isn’t a curriculum on its own, would Kumon go beyond basic arithmetic, though?
With how many schools these kids have attended in the past, it’s also no surprise they say they preferred homeschooling. Starting at a new school is stressful enough as it is, but to be thrown into new education systems over and over again, constantly have to leave them behind whenever the parents decide it’s time to move on… children with more competent parents would have a hard time, and Darren and Georgie don’t seem like they could provide a lot of guidance at all.

Not even 2 minutes into the homeschooling Q&A and I'm dead. "We dont say subjects we say passion and interests" says Georgie, and Mia goes onto saying she crochets, Sienna makes bracelets, and they both like cooking. What parent allows their kids to watch this crap 
basic life skills aren't school subjects.
The only thing Mia can do is create teen content, she doesn't have many other options. Her art is awful lol. And yes she has a platform to promote a potential business, but what kind of business would she have beyond typical social media products (fashion, cosmetics etc) with such a limited world view.
Every human is creative, it's in our nature. They talk endlessly about "creativity" and as if they are the only creative humans on this earth because they are *so* alternative.
Also Darren spouting podcast wisdom lol.
