Yes I thought that was so sad aswell, she's holding them back massively and all because of her own bad experiences with school. She doesn't post any home ed content because she does sod all.That's really sad about the reading. My youngest is 6 this year and absolutely loves reading and is at an age appropriate level. Breaks my heart reading that her 10 year old can't

I agree! They must have another income stream that they aren't open about.Seriously though, how DOES she afford it?? She bleats on about being in poverty all the time but managed the Florida trip last year. How is she doing it? Boggles my mind really
One of mine couldn't read at all by 6. But school were on it and he got 1 to 1 time with the class teacher. By 7 he made huge progress. I would have been really worried if he couldn't read at 10.That's really sad about the reading. My youngest is 6 this year and absolutely loves reading and is at an age appropriate level.

Or when she does it's "oh we're having a chilled day as it's Friday" etc
I hope sheās not filling their heads with a career of blogging/social media so not bothering to help them to learn to read.
The photo she's shared of Noa/P's writing has just irritated the heck out of me. Most children her age would have been able to write most of that sentence themselves or at least had a good go at it. She's barely managed to write love. Yet again Hayley's 'homeschooling' is failing her kids!
That's horrendous, like reception level writing. Maybe year 1 at a push. Hayley really is doing those kids a massive disservice and I'm not sure she even realises.
It looks like the writing of a reception/year 1 child, not the writing of a what year 3/4?
Her long rambling monologue about taking the bairns to the GP to be assessed for adhd etc. She starts out by rubbishing the doctor, saying she ādidnāt expect muchā then seems surprised that they clocked two of the kids as possible adhd. Erm, no, maybe itās because they have no schooling and now as the older one approaches puberty the obvious lack of normal socialisation is clear. In any case, she probably sniffs another benefits possibility.
Sometimes I wonder if sheās not perpetually drugged up. Either that or self absorbed to the point of psychosis. The state of her and how she mumbles on is like watching a slow car crash. At least someone in a health authority is now aware of this feral situation, although thereās not much can be done for kids held back like this.

She would be Year 3 if she went to school. It looks like early Reception writing to me. The Year 3s I know are way above & beyond this. They may (allegedly) have skills elsewhere but writing isn't one. Ironic given Hayley's choice of 'career'

My youngest is in year 1 and that resembles her writing. Why she doesn't send those children to school I do not know, I feel sorry for them.
She's such a lazy twit of a parent, I'd have thought she'd jump at the chance to have 6 hours a day without them!
When she gets the kids a diagnosis nothing will change. She will just use it as an excuse. She won't understand the children better and think about her parenting , it will all just be down to their diagnosis. If they were in school it would have been picked up and they could be getting help.
*Although I personally believe if I ate what I wanted, didn't have the routine of school and was totally indulged then I would present with the same behaviours!
Just have to say that having a diagnosis doesnāt mean thereās something āwrongā with a child. Itās a difference in brain wiring. And having a diagnosis will help that child understand themselves better and ensure they have their needs met throughout life. Comments like this
donāt help raise awareness of understanding of neurodivergent children.I canāt help but feel itās for her benefit as she seems the type to use a diagnose as an āexcuseā if anyone dares to criticise HER

I meant like someone else said, it will benefit her. My son shows some signs of autism but I donāt think the signs are enough to go and get a diagnosis, so I wouldnāt try and get him a diagnosis just to benefit me.
totally agree with this, but from Hayley's perspective, i don't think she actively wants a diagnosis and will push for it whether it is actually deemed applicable, not because she wants to ensure her kids are better understood or that they have tjier needs met, but to use as an excuse which she will whip out to justify their lack of a basic education and how behind they are for their ages in skills such as reading and writing. she doesn't seem bothered about ensuring her kids' educational needs are met at the best of times, otherwise she would send them all to school, since she is clearly not in a position to be able to cope with home educating them herself, given that she spends so much of her time in bed or resting - and if it turned out that any of the kids were diagnosed with ADHD, she wouldn't do anything in terms of adapting to help them learn etc, she would just use it as an excuse any time she was criticised for depriving her kids of a decent education, allowing them to fall so behind other kiss their age and potentially jeopardising their futures prospects etc.Just have to say that having a diagnosis doesnāt mean thereās something āwrongā with a child.

realistically, for all of her kids - but especially those who are being assessed for ADHD - the best place for them, in terms of meeting their needs etc, is at school, and it's a shame Hayley refuses to put her kids first, favouring the idea of being a home school mum, instead of her kids' education and learning.
Hayley reminds me of parents I have worked with who are āI think they have autism/adhd!ā Get the diagnosis and straight on to the DLA forms.
Sadly, they will grow up in their parent's footsteps, believing they can make a career out of social media and playing the perpetual victim.

The lack of follow up on home schoolers is frightening. Don't get me wrong, there are people who are great at it and then there are others like Hayley. Education if you can call it that for her kids consists of colouring in pictures and topics they choose themselves. Hayley appears to spend most of her time laying on her bed mumbling about how awful she feels. Strange how she was so ill with chronic pain but managed to go to a Cher concert later that day. How can what she is providing be considered education!

There will be potential addition income I should imagine.

Absolutely this. My son was diagnosed with ADHD age ten. This involved meetings with the school and other professionals. These taught us coping mechanisms for his impulsive behaviours and his lack of attention. He is in his late twenties now and believes these did help him, even if he couldn't see that at the time!totally agree with this, but from Hayley's perspective, i don't think she actively wants a diagnosis and will push for it whether it is actually deemed applicable, not because she wants to ensure her kids are better understood or that they have tjier needs met, but to use as an excuse which she will whip out to justify their lack of a basic education and how behind they are for their ages in skills such as reading and writing. she doesn't seem bothered about ensuring her kids' educational needs are met at the best of times, otherwise she would send them all to school, since she is clearly not in a position to be able to cope with home educating them herself, given that she spends so much of her time in bed or resting - and if it turned out that any of the kids were diagnosed with ADHD, she wouldn't do anything in terms of adapting to help them learn etc, she would just use it as an excuse any time she was criticised for depriving her kids of a decent education, allowing them to fall so behind other kiss their age and potentially jeopardising their futures prospects etc.

It is really awful, and the fact there is no checking on the quality of what she is teaching is disgusting. Oh, and she is having an IBS flare up and can't eat, another excuse to lay around and do nothing!
