I really feel for all children. Sienna and Mia are both intelligent and social kids who would off, if given the opportunity, loved school and made loads of friends. Mia hasn't had any friends or normal social interaction with peers for years hence why she is acting the way she does now.
I think if she was able to develop normally she probably would have a boyfriend her own age and be looking at going to university. Which I think she would of loved.
Sienna has always been a lovely girl but she's being denied so much. It is already becoming apparent but in the next few years I think will become worse, and she most likely will be left in a worse position than Mia. They most likely will push Sienna into her personal youtube channel to cater to the teen audience as Mia becomes an adult.
It's really cruel to deny their children all these opportunities.
Georgie and Darren have an obsession with control, they are in an amazing position living in Costa Rica, nice house etc. why do thy not understand how unhealthy it is that the kids are being stunted so much. They should not be constantly with each other 24/7, they all need their own lives. I do not see how they think Mia will be in any position to go travelling alone when she turns 18.
I applaud their plant based diet and in general healthy lifestyle for the kids, but what would happen if one of them wanted to eg be a vegetarian or omnivore. Would they support them? I doubt it.
I didn't see anyone mention this but on the new years day video when Darren spoke about what he wanted to learn this year- terrain theory and german new medicine. Looking them up briefly is very scary to read that he is so caught up in believing this stuff. Basically that germs are not real and do not cause disease and then also about not needing usual medication to treat disease. People got very ill and nearly died as this german doctor told them they did not need to follow the advice of their doctors with regard to treatment.
Mia with this boy, honestly it is just shocking. 17 year olds do not find 14 year old boys attractive. At all. Touchwood this will be addressed with her. Same with Ornella sadly, I can not see how a 17 year old girl who would be in year 12, would have anything in common with a 14 year old who would be in year 9. The immaturity gap and just different stage of life and experiences should be huge. Sadly for Mia this age range is all she can relate to and that blame is solely on Georgie and Darren.
I did use to like the family but I think there is a lot going on behind the scenes which is overall just really sad but also scary that the kids are being brought up in this environment.
