Father of Daughters #53 DIY is easy when you're a right tool

[heretoreaditall2019]

I feel so desperately sorry for these poor children, behaviour is communication and I find the “I did do this” really quite a disturbing f you to parents that they should have a secure bond with. It’s as if they already understand the parents’ prioritisation of material goods over their well-being? And the only way to lash out is to damage their freebies of yesteryear.

Then it cuts to him laughing about threatening them with video footage, and classic parenting tactics, the whole Insta story/family are clearly sick. It doesn’t come across as a loving or happy home at all

They are both vain, attention seeking weirdos and those twins look pissed off 99% of the time and have done for the last couple of years and that’s not normal for children that age

He says it was twin D. I don't think feeling negative emotions and getting angry is a problem, but it's how it's being expressed. It might be false but he also posted that they allegedly kicked the pantry panel door in and have kicked plants down the stairs.

He needs to sit down and work with helping them to emotionally regulate + on their distress tolerance.

How does he normally respond to them being upset? Getting the camera phone out to film for content.

He 100% did this himself

 

[Rosieee]

Imagine the day he will wake up from this social media addiciton (if he ever do). Looking at all these years wasted with the kids, the damage, the lies, spending their childhood trying to share as much as possible with strangers rather then forging a trusting parental bond. I get anxiety myself thinking about all that guilt ! Not sure if there is an AA equivalent for phone addiction but I hope there is because that is no feat for someone to handle on their own.

I don't often get to feel smug about my parenting but aren't the twins 6? No way would my 6yr old every dream of doing something like that "in anger". And he's laughing because he saw that and thought "oh well the sofa's ruined but at least it'll make some good content!"

You're a freak mate and still the biggest walking ick I've ever seen.
Your house is joyless.

I doubt it was one of the twins that wrote that - it looks like a failed attempt to write in a childish way - there were three letter ‘d’s’ all written differently.

If they actually did write it, they were encouraged either by one of the older girls or FOD himself.

And we’re expected to believe that one of those twins is so verbose as to spontaneously say “I’ve never seen them enjoy each other’s company so much” alright Sly.

Sounds like an older person.

Does he really think we’re as dumb as him… no

At least once he and Old Glen got the camera out to film a twinnie being shamed on the naughty step.

They appear to have put more effort into grabbing free stuff than parenting.

Remember the time they did that and forgot the reflection in the mirror showing the camera all set up on a tripod … clearly a staged photo and not a candid shot as they had made out. Quickly deleted when they realised. Anyone else remember that, who better still does anyone have that evidence?!

Yeessss. That was it.

 

[blurstoftimes]

am i the only one who doesn’t think that manipulating kids into telling the truth by saying that there are cameras everywhere is ‘normal’ parenting? especially not when that’s really not far from the truth for those poor girls anyway…

 

[Axatogrind]

I sincerely hope he didn't vandalise the sofa himself and then broadcast a lie naming one of his daughters as the culprit. That would be f***ed up in the extreme. I'm sure many of us know how awful and upsetting it feels be blamed for something we categorically did not do.

It's been said before on here many times, but if they're encouraged to "act up" in various ways for his instagram content, then that will set a precedent for their everyday behaviour. It's likely to escalate the older they get, too.

Agree completely @blurstoftimes - how disturbing that they think it's fine to tell the children there are cameras filming their every move at home, and like you say it's completely believeable for them. That's the sort of thing that they might never quite shake off, and never be able to feel competely relaxed at home.

Always keep receipts.

MOD & FOD #3 Part time parents full time grifters

Anyone really uncomfortable with FOD posting the picture of Ottilie on the naughty chair? A few comments saying it’s bad but loads of people saying how funny it is. I wouldn’t post a photo of my child unhappy for stranger’s amusement. Never posted on here before but it really disgusted me...

Should Simon ever be locked out of his Instagram account, it’s all good: Bored Panda has his back. A walk down memory lane with a collation of 103 Father of Daughter’s IG posts.

Some I’d forgotten. It’s quite the body of exploitation work.

There was another time he was crouched naked in the shower with a bottle of shower gel covering his privates, with the two youngest (who were toddlers at the time) looking at him through the shower glass after having apparently just happened to wander in and watch while he was showering.

You could see Clemmie's reflection in the shower glass taking the photo, he acknowledged this in the caption but just how weird and creepy was this whole post? What parents would think this is a good idea?

Spoiler: Click here for the "shower gel" photo - you have been warned
