Rhi Mummy of Four #4 Disney Magic, give children privacy that would be tragic.

[Ziggzaggz]

She pushed for the autism diagnosis so she could get the extra money, and no doubt she is claiming for everything she possibly can, this I believe fully.
Zara is just a brat who wants her own way, yet in school she does as she is told. No way would those kids perform in the school plays etc or go on residentials. Those kids are completely "normal" in school (apologies if I worded it badly) I have seen these kids in the playground and in school and they cope completely fine.
The fact that Will could go away on a residential speaks volumes. On my daughter's residential, 2 of the children had their parents go with them as they wouldn't have coped overnight, so the parents stayed in the local caravan park, dropped the kids of in the morning for breakfast, then picked them up at night so they slept with their parents in a caravan.
She disgusts me claiming free passes and fast passes when she has no need too.

Rhi has obviously been reading here - now she’s showing us her salads instead on those crappy bars and drinks…

I thought the same with the salad and healthy eating so I'm not always ill malarkey. It won't last and she'll soon be back on her processed food as she is incredibly lazy.
I really do hope she reads here and see's the reaction to her blatant abuse of the disability system. Shame on you

I understand autism is a spectrum and her kids have been professionally diagnosed, however as someone who has a nephew with severe autism it makes me SO angry to see how she piggybacks on her kids diagnosis. My beautiful nephew is 5 and is completely nonverbal, still reliant on nappies, loves his trampoline and to be spun in circles, he will have a meltdown if someone is wearing glasses, or if it’s too loud, he loves to be cuddled and gives kisses to everyone. His parents have had to give absolutely everything to looking after him and making sure he is safe. Not once would they dream of using his disability as a way of getting free entries or using it as a benefit. We wouldn’t change a thing about him, being autistic makes him who he is, but my god watching this idiot makes me so so angry for families who genuinely struggle

I know people all over the autism spectrum and the ones most like her 3 were diagnosed as adults and masked it for years to ‘fit in’.

I just don't understand how she can't see that most children don't like queuing and struggle to wait for the amount of time that Disneyland requires. Her children aren't in anyway exceptionally bad at waiting for things, you can see this when they are queuing for snacks, dining out or waiting for the bus to take them from a partner hotel to the park. I think in her mind the fact the children don't like queuing, get a bit agitated and complain justifies her using these queue cutting passes, even though my neurotical kids of the same age would be worse than her children. Perhaps the fact she doesn't seem to really socialise with families and kids of a similar age has meant she hasn't realised that her kids are easier than most and certainly don't need special access passes designed to help those with much higher needs.

It is genuinely outrageous that she is so brazen and publicises her abuse of the system. I don't doubt there might be things in the future that her kids might need additional support or provision for due to their autism but queuing for rides clearly isn't something that they find particularly difficult when compared to other children their age. I really hope Disney and other parks close this loophole that allows Rhi and others to basically have a VIP visit to the parks at the expense of those that genuinely need it.

Calling her period problems 'serious'

 

[Bobby2222]

Oh my god her podcast. Has everyone listened to the intro?! She is so mono tone and scripted like she’s doing some mind numbing advert. Why can’t she just speak naturally instead of like a news reporter! The whole thing sounds so unnatural and scripted

 

[focusdochas]

It’s probably scripted down to when to pause for breath. The topics so far are over done from what I can make from the clickbait titles. A podcast needs something special not a monologue.

 

[SomeoneLOLd]

I think I’d actually enjoy her podcast if she spoke freely like a normal person in a conversational kind of way instead of it feeling so scripted and robotic

 

[HankMcPrank]

I still don’t understand her YouTube videos of organising when she has practically half of IKEA in her house & yet still needs to declutter & organise.
I’ve gone from being a maximalist to a minimalist. It isn’t that hard.

 

[focusdochas]

Her organisation is basically moving from one kallax box into another

 

[AGirlinHerHead]

Jesus Christ her latest vlog. She claims disability benefits?! Are you kidding me!!! Her kids may have autism but absolutely no way should she be entitled to anything. ENTITLED is basically the word that comes to mind when I think of Rhi. Ironically this lunacy actually destroys the purpose of her vlogs as most families, with children who also do not like to queue do not have the option of essentially a free VIP pass like they do. Her vlogs in no way represent what a day at a theme park would be like for the average family, while she walks straight into rides and spends her virtual queuing time buying overpriced snacks. She is an absolute sponge who spends her time jumping queues and taking benefits which are designed for people actually in need (them sat riding on that ridiculous disability bus in the airport springs to mind, apparently her children’s legs do not work, let’s hope no one with ACTUAL mobility issues needed that). God help those children when they become adults and no one gives a crap or gives them any kind of advantage like their mother has raised them to expect

I think it’s an utter insult.
I fought for my sons DLA because it was needed. Currently, I haven’t heard back from Carers Allowance but I am a full time carer to him. He has high needs, day & night. Not to mention school refusal & an eating disorder.

he is 13. Thirteen.

I’m the thought of Disneyland or Alton towers would put the fright in him. Even the local park can be a no no if it’s too busy. His anxiety becomes through the roof. I couldn’t imagine him on a Disney cruise.

 

[focusdochas]

I have mobility issues, luckily still mild, my step is affected and I wouldn’t dare use those services as I can still manage
I am in a different country but I was told despite my issues being progressive it will be hard to get any disability benefits, which would mean access to lower cost physio etc

 

[AGirlinHerHead]

Her taking these benefits that are absolutely not designed for them is essentially taking money from those truly in need. If makes me so so angry. The fight lots is parents have to get their children diagnosis/help/support is often horrendous, and entitled Rhi just barges in and takes takes takes. She has convinced herself her children cannot queue. They cannot manage. Due to like a poster above said, the tiniest squeak. I have never met a child who “likes” to queue. Disability benefits are meant to SUPPORT children who need it. Physio/carers/special equipment/adjustments. I would absolutely love for Rhi to show us what she uses her children’s money for. Kallax? Disney passes? It’s not for medical equipment is it

 

[Loopybiscuit666]

It's benefit fraud is what it is!

 

[AGirlinHerHead]

And on top of that shes using this benefit fraud to make money on the internet. Free carers tickets to Alton towers in order to vlog for profit… it‘s disgusting. I’m tempted to report her.

 

[jadakizz]

It makes me so angry. I have an autistic child who also has other medical issues with her heart, struggles with walking, anxiety, meltdowns. I can barely take my children to a park let alone a theme park. I have no DLA or support and having to absolutely fight for what my daughter needs. I’m a single mum and so drained by it. DLA would help so much.

 

[Rightio123]

I really hope she does read here and takes on board some of what has been written about how she is taking advantage of disability provision.

I don't doubt her children have autism and think Rhi herself clearly has some traits. I also don't doubt that the children could go on to struggle more than NT children, especially with things like friendships and social cues. I don't think Rhi is helping Will and Bella in particular by trying to keep them so young in the way she dresses them and the interests she encourages. Growing up can be brutal and whether we like it or not, the children will probably have an easier time if the difference between them and other children isn't exacerbated by their mother. I think Rhi's inability to see this is linked to her own autistic traits that mean she can't really understand sometimes quite complex social dynamics and norms that start to come into effect with children pretty early on.

Rather than focussing on getting as many disability access passes as humanly possible for her children that are perfectly capable of queuing like other children, she would be better placed trying to support the children in the ways that they actually need support and would benefit them in the long term.
