That’d give them an excuse to keep Sabre and the rest of the older children involved in the channel because realistically by the time they have their potential 8th baby she’ll be at least approaching her 18th birthday and as they use IVF to get pregnant and no matter how you’re trying to conceive it can take a long time. The oldest kids could be adults and still doing vlogs with their younger siblings. If Justin does get his way I can see Brooke then wanting another baby to make it even so she can keep her older children interested in the videos.
Brooke seems to be the type of mum who enjoys them when they’re little but isn’t quite sure what to do with them when they get older. Their inadequate education and lack of socialisation combined with simply being repressed from doing a lot of normal things teenagers and tweens should be allowed to do by her contribute to a lot of their immaturity. Plus Sabre’s growth condition and Sockie being 13 and not looking like she’s growing much yet is a red flag for me that something is not right.
Having more kids would mean more pregnancy and birth videos to clickbait, it would be so obvious that it’s for their channel and not out of simply wanting more children. I would think that 6 is more than enough and Brooke must be around 40 now so it is getting to the point where she can’t have any more anyway. Their family is so cultlike, I expect that as Disco and Charm get older they will be pushed more into the vlogs and will grow up thinking nothing is weird about it.

I think Sockie is Justin's favourite and Naz is Brooke's (besides the little ones). In my opinion, Biggy can't control his because of how he is treated.
They would struggle at school, their academic skills aren't the same as the other kids' at their age.
I wonder what happened to Sabre's dream going to the Olympics

You know, maybe Sockie has already been diagnosed and that's why Brooke and Justin treat her differently. It's just a theory, it could not be true but I just thought that may be the case.
yeah that’s what i think, either that or it’s favouritism because they aren’t as harsh on her. brooke is very strict especially towards sabre and biggy, naz a little bit but i haven’t seen sockie get in much trouble. i doubt they’d make a video addressing it or anything which honestly they shouldn’t have to anyway, but i do have a feeling she has it and has been diagnosed with it.
Might just be me but I get a very unhappy vibe from Justin. Is he still running his swim school? I’m sure when he was competing in the olympics he didn’t see his future going the way it is. Living off his children’s YouTube earnings.
All he seems to do is tend to the babies and drive the kids to the shops

The swim school was up for sale earlier in the year and I believe it has either sold or that Justin has stepped down from it for now - they haven't done many videos there recently so I think it may have sold. Wonder what they will do with the money from that as it would have been in the millions?
I honestly thought they were going to move to another state and he would start up another branch of the swim school as he seemed passionate about swimming and assisting people of all abilities to swim. They always seemed busy with swim school stuff too, but with the kids careers growing I'm guessing he is now their business manager? A quick google told me his profession is 'Director' of the Norris Nuts and that he also does social media consulting.
Yes the swim school has been sold-it's now know as the 'Jump N Swim Academy'. Anyone know why he sold it?
I think a lot of their 2020 plans involved travel, whether it was moving interstate to QLD or going overseas to the UK. It was all put on hold due to covid 19. I think that’s why they are doing so many repeats of challenges etc
It's really a shame if Justin sold the swim school just so he could live off the norris nuts youtube channels and work as their 'manager' full time because he assumed it would have interfered with getting to travel more. Justin is basically like the nanny for the 2 younger ones and the older four's chauffeur/judge for challenges at this point, half the time the kids and Brooke don't even treat him with much respect.
Honestly, I find their punishments extreme. These kids are being put in an unnecessary bubble, which prevents them from knowing about the real world. Plus, no offense to Naz, but I mean, having a teddy bear or stuffed animal that you like is fine. I have one, I sleep with it occasionally but to talk to it in a baby voice? I can definitely say that she's the most mature but these kids need to know their talents and things that they aren't good at. I remember one challenge where Sockie didn't win in a cooking challenge and started crying about it. I don't know whether my memory is being true to me or not but I do remember Justin giving Sockie an extra point. Their thumbnails are over the top as well. Almost every video has some aspect involving a Norris Nut crying, stacks and heaps of money or them opening their mouth really wide and pretending to be surprised. I used to like them and stopped liking them a while back when I realized how unauthentic they are. Seriously. Sabre tells 1+ million people on Youtube about the boy she likes. It's okay to tell your family and close friends but to disclose it to the internet? I just find them really odd and it seems that they're way too close.
I agree! I feel so bad for him. Poor Justin has to sell his school because the Norris Nuts want to continue pursuing Youtube. ? They constantly nag their dad and make fun of him, they called him fat in one video and I believe that Sabre insulted her dad tons when she went to that skateboarding competition in America a while back. Brooke is so annoying, she looks like a powdered version of the Grinch, nonetheless, her personality matches the Grinch's personality as well. I bet that she's the one provoking the kids and making them behave like that. Sabre's embarrassed herself tons of times, like when she was interviewing Kevin Hart at a red carpet event and asked to see his abs? Their parents let that kind of behavior slide but they can't tolerate any of the four main kids eating a biscuit or a finger sized chocolate. God, they aggravate me so much.
I mean we know that it isn't going to happen anytime soon because you need certain achievements before they even look at you and consider you to be a possible candidate and representative of your country. Biggy is pampered as well, that's the reason he knows how to get everything he wants. He cries whenever he doesn't get what he wants. I'd definitely say that during group challenges, Sockie and Biggy are the ones that always end up winning, the fact that Brooke makes them pick slips to decide which kitchen to cook in and Sockie+Biggy always get the nice kitchen and Sabre+Naz get the "rat kitchen" is kinda sketchy. But, if the slip picking system is fair, they should alternate kitchens at least. If the rat kitchen is rat infested, don't use it. I don't know whether this is true or not (it's an opinion) but I certainly think that Sock+Biggs are Brooke's favorite in team challenges, they always get the first pick (i.e. - they always get to pick first or go first) which can often lend itself to a huge advantage. The favoritism that occurs is disgusting.

Brooke is exaggerating things for views. I used to like them but they have started to annoy me so much. Their personalities seem so fake and made up and yeah, I understand, that there's a target audience for their channel but faking your personality, potentially mentally abusing your child and forcing them to dress like 7-8 year olds isn't okay. I definitely don't agree with the way she parents, not at all.
It's their mother who tells them things like this to make sure that they listen to her and do exactly as they say. I'm concerned for their wellbeing.
Considering how much they've shared already, it would definitely make sense if their younger fans would worry but if they share that much and refuse to share anything for the past few months, people will obviously be worried. I've watched one or two of their "Kids Turn 21" videos and Sabre is obsessed with wearing padded bras because it gives her a more "grown up, mature" appearance. It's sad to see how these kids sprint to donut stores or cupcake stores or just buy things that they normally aren't allowed to buy when their parents aren't around. Brooke is way too controlling. I feel like Brooke might not want to share things because she wants to drag it on and the kids'll post videos about it later on and get millions and millions of views. They've succeeded in making their children the business. God.
I don't know whether this has been discussed in length before on this thread or not but Brooke literally made a game out of her pregnancy. "If you catch this ball, I'm pregnant, if you miss it, I'm not pregnant". What kind of cruel thing is that? Biggy broke down when Brooke revealed that she wasn't pregnant and she's filming her children breaking down and it's the thumbnail.. WHAT?!?

It's even sadder because she was passing the beginning stages and meeting the requirements - they were looking at her and considering her to be a possible representative for 2020. This was at the beginning of their youtube in 2016/2017 and at the time she was focused and training hard to continue to meet the requirements. They even had those massive custom ramps built in their backyard (behind the swim school) to help her train.
It seemed as though that was abandoned for youtube though. Even before she got her medical diagnosis it seemed as though she was training less in favor of youtube filming
Yes Sabre did come second in the X Games (and first in the qualifiers) as well as some other skateboarding competitions. I don't really know why she stopped competitions, I think it was something to do with her health.
Probably to do with her health but why not just say it? The became known because of skateboarding
I thought maybe because her goal was to be the youngest at the olympics instead just going to the olympics.. but she isnt the youngest anymore
When they started YouTube, you could very well see that they were extremely serious about the sports that they were taking part in, but as their popularity grew, they became more and more involved in YouTube rather then pursuing the sports that they were once good at. Although I don't surf, I can tell that their skills have stayed the same, they aren't learning anything new. Instead of trying to enhance themselves, they're over here surfing and asking their siblings who they like more, Cardi B or Nicki Minaj. They've lost interest, I guess, but I can't say much for them.
They share so much but they keep vital information private. They haven't said anything about why Sabre stopped skateboarding in competitions but here they are sharing the size of clothes they wear. ? They really need to learn their boundaries and to not leave fans hanging. They've told their fans so much but now they're keeping everything mostly private, their fans will probably be worried.
Their is way too much going on in their lives, their goals are way too ambitious (not that that's bad but depending on your family life, certain goals are too ambitious.) Their family has 8 members and to get decent plane tickets is at least $100-500. I feel like they've let go of themselves and who they were actually and have made fake personalities to please 4 million+ people. It's a shame really, they weren't actually that bad when they began YouTube but now? Now, they're unbearable.
I feel the same way, he's like a glorified chauffeur. I feel like they keep wanting to have more kids because the more kids they have, the more views they're gonna get and that's going to boost their engagement through the roof. I feel so bad for him, he was a pretty good swimmer but here his kids are, embarrassing themselves on YouTube and telling millions of people their personal problems. I don't think that he has much of a say, either.
Biggy is way too mature in some parts and way too idiotic in others. This has probably been mentioned in this thread before but Biggy was saying that his biggest fear was that his girlfriend wouldn't have big boobs. That's disgusting to hear from someone that's 10-11. I didn't even know what boobs were until I was in 7th grade (only a year/two ago - granted, I grew up with Indian parents). Talking about someone's weight is never okay. People are so conscious of their weight nowadays. The fact that Brooke doesn't respect Justin and the kids see that, they think that it's okay to disrespect their dad like that. The fact that Justin used to be an Olympic swimmer and now has to be a full time chauffeur and caretaker for Charm and Disco upsets me. He had such a bright future and he had to sell his swimming business because the NN want to continue YouTube? They're like exaggerating everything. I honestly feel so bad for Justin because he always gets insulted in every video by either Brooke or one of the kids.
