The Battista family

[iLoveNectarines]

I feel like every vlog is like watching some sort of year 10 school acting project. It all seems so forced and rehearsed. Those poor kids. Whilst theyre obviously loved and seem like kind and polite children, they are incredibly sheltered and it's not healthy at all. Makes me angry that there's no governing body that oversees homeschooling. It's actually frightening how easy it is for parents to keep their kids away from the world

I just came across Dionnes Instagram account whilst looking to see if anything had been posted about the baby being born and I’m honestly appalled. She’s only 14 but she’s posing provocatively in swimwear and also a lacey nightie... and the comments are filled with middle aged men commenting heart emojis and asking to be her friend and for her to DM them, really concerning that the parents are turning a blind eye to it.

Mega cringe. For a so called wine connoisseur you'd think he'd know how to say Bordeaux. Then Stephanie stroking his ego by saying he knows more than her about wine.

The kids were just sat there almost frightened to take any food. He made the kids out as though they had eaten from his plate. He said something like "oh yeah, someone's been taking bites out of this pizza. I can see your side eyes". The 2 boys looked sheepishly. I guess a box of macaroni served in 1 bowl with 5 forks didn't quite fill them huh.

It was the way they were sat motionless looking at the food waiting for a slice of cheese or bread to be granted to them.

Caleb you can have some pizza if you want *points to a literal CRUST*

It's horrible to watch big sean always getting 1st share of whatever they are sharing that Ferro rocher ice cream that was small to begin with and I thought it was Deones anyhow , I have said it on here on here before but Sean really doesn't give me good vibes at all something very off about him.

Here they go again. Walk through a field of oil seed rape and suggest it might be “something to do with potatoes”. Yes, homeschool for those kids is such a good idea.

I just can’t get over the thumbnail, it’s highly inappropriate that a dad takes pictures (and shares) it of their underage daughter like that! Their views are so shite, they are taking a leaf out of other family vloggers books and pleasing the pea-do’s with that shit. This kids are literally doing zero school work, they are all regressing. With Chris ingham 2.0 with his drone and a mum that can’t pronounce a fucking word properly or doesn’t understand tense ‘Dion teached me’ . Don’t get me started on the hats those children stand no chance.

They also need to get them all seen and in proper shoes. All of their feet turn in horrendously it really effects all their walking not to mention when they run. I don’t know how parents don’t see that.

They gave the youngest a ice cream but the other kids didnt get one.
Sat down to a picnic and the camera cut.
I wonder why,wine for Shaun and small amount of food to feed everyone?

The eldest lad always looks very uncomfortable.
My guess is he would rather be at home than walking the streets of France.
Everything is done on the cheap.They walked for over a hour instead of getting public transport.

The dad gives off vibes that I dont like.

 

[Cocopops12]

the more I watch these the more I get concerned for those kids with this “so called” hone schooling. Who doesn’t know what an ostrich looks like?

The parents are totally lacking in capacity, it always amazes me how under the radar you can go. They have 5 children, the two older ones have never been in a school setting and the younger two were briefly, all children have an array of health conditions (the badly turned in feet that have been ignored) & yet they can fly under the radar.

Amazed that woodlands was empty, yes because every other normal family don't call 3 water slides and a stag-a-saurus, education.

 

[Cocopops12]

An #ad video they have like 3 subscribers and literally make the worst content known to man

 

[FloreatVivas]

So they have Caleb looking for “reindeer” in the lodges but miss out on Gibraltar Point nature reserve to hit the arcades. Natural history education versus fishing for fluffy toys and checking out alcoholic slush.

The perfect model for failing your kids. They really have no future.

 

[Princess 6]

They are wannabe inghams that’s why, even all the kids perched on the bed for apparent first meeting of the baby!! They are desperate and downright pathetic, why would they want to be like the inghams??!!

You are right I liked stephanie, wasnt sure about Sean just something I can't put my finger on about him ,but the whole copying the inghams is so off putting .creepy and lazy ingham are scum the outcasts of YouTube and you have to question what kind of people they are that look up to / copy them .

 

[Cocopops12]

I came across 1 of their older videos the other day were they went to stay for a weekend in a caravan Sean was knocking the drink into him and then later on in the day/evening they went out in the car and he seems drunk/driving could not believe it with the 4 kids in the back of the car

He does this is so many vlogs, he necked a bottle of red once and then drove back hours to a campsite.

 

[Green leaf]

I get strange vibes from this family. Overall them seem like a nice family but there is something that just seems 'off', I cant seem to put my finger on what it is. Also, I watched their gender reveal video last night and got a strong sense of deja vu I feel like I've seen that exact reveal before, the music, the way they edited it, everything about it.

 

[nutty]

I didn't even realise stephanie and shaun slept downstairs, the kitchen and living area are tiny I dont know how they have stuck living so cramped for so long ,

Yeah, the houses on their estate are so small. You might think they'd be bigger from imagining the footprint of the downstairs layout, but those houses are only partially 2 story. The living room and kitchen have no upstairs sort to speak.

Imagine living in such a small space and not even getting out for school

I hate all the excessive buying of shit they seem to do. I'm sure last year the kids each got something like 20 Easter eggs EACH. They always seem to do gift openings videos, especially when its coming up to Christmas and they have them opening presents BEFORE the actual day, am sure it's so that they can get in first with the YouTube videos. I don't think its good for the kids long term.

Another thing I don't think is good for the kids, the fact that they homeschool them. Honestly the amount of words they mispronounce is unreal. Not that that's the end of the world but I just don't think they seem intelligent enough for getting the older ones to a GCSE level.
They'll preface a day out and say that it's like a field day for their schooling when it's obviously just for the content. For example one day they went to the Ouseburn and I thought what a brilliant place to learn about the history of Newcastle, how it was the heart of the UK's Industrial Revolution, invention of the first ever steam train, coal mining etc. NOPE they went there just to take Fortnite style photos in front of all the graffitti.

I get that the don't have to teach them history when they head out anywhere, but what they are teaching them is that life is all about just making things look good on Youtube. They can't even go to the beach without having the kids just sit there whilst they do cinematic shots of their prosecco and cheese boards . And let's not even get started on the amount of drinking wine they seemed to do whenever they went out for lunch and then driving back home with all the kids in the car...

Sorry but I find them weird! B fam?!! Really ?? Aspiring to be the next ingham shit show. Who’d want to be like them? Quit now and save your kids a lifetime of heartache.

 

[Cocopops12]

They just need to take those kids home, they aren’t celebs, they are not even micro YouTubers. Honestly I can’t believe they think they are living their best life. Now I think the inghams are complete minging wank pots but these are like the Poundland version of the them and that’s saying something! You’ve got the greasy haired dad that loves to eye fuck himself, the deluded and incredibly low IQ’d mother, again thinks she’s a celeb, then a gaggle of kids that have been so isolated they are no where near their developmental milestones (emotional, social, hell even physically). It’s sad to watch. Maybe stop ‘bucket listing’ havens and go home!

 

[nutty]

Does anyone think they are in a council house? (Nothing wrong with that by the way), it’s just they’ve lived there sometime knowing they wanted another baby and already having 4 kids squashed in what I think to be a 3 bed terrace, with a dining room to make it 4 beds. If you owned the house or rented privately you’d be able to do something about the lack of room quickly compared to council/HA. The new baby will give them more priority on their band and get them rehoused quicker. As mentioned above, they did say once they owned a business but won’t reveal their business info on their channel.

I know the housing estate they live in, might I add that I'm not a stalker, I just live locally and their housing estate is VERY distinctive and they show it in their videos. I'd say 90% of those houses are council owned. They are absolutely TINCHY.

The front room/living room is where Stephanie and Shaun have their bedroom and there's only 2 bedrooms upstairs. Downstairs its the kitchen, the living room which faces onto the back garden, the front room they use as a bedroom and a separate toilet and bathroom. The 2 bedrooms upstairs are so small, so that means the 3 boys are in one bedroom (which they never show).

I'd say they are in dire need of getting a bigger house

I started off really loving this family but the more I watched, the more I began to disagree with the way they try so hard to make YouTube their income, sometimes to the detriment of their kids, in my opinion. I think the kids are lovely kids so they must be doing something right, but they need to be careful with how hard they are trying to be YouTubers.

In a Q&A a while ago they said that they have their own business and that they didn't want to mention it on YouTube because they wanted to keep it separate.

How does this family afford to go on all of these holidays?
I saw a comment saying this, and all I can say is they can't. They do it off of taxpayers money, and it is people like themselves who COULD work but do not who are going to make the whole economy to crash in the UK. The less taxpayers we have, the less money we have to give to those who genuinely need benefits to aid them through life. There will come a time very soon that this man will ultimately be forced to work due to benefit cuts caused by these very people. Either that, or they just whack it all on a credit card I actually assume that's most likely the case.
But what is a shame is giving them all of what they have, with no actual stable household income, you're promising them and giving them all of this now to probably not be able to in a years time.
Education seems to be out of the window, these kids aren't learning anything, they're being stripped of social interactions for their own gain.
I am sure they're under some delusion that they're the Ingham family (nothing to be proud of whatsoever).
It really bothers me that people work hard day in day out only to aid families like this who CHOOSE to be lazy, and choose this way of life.
Never mind everything else, that baby is NOT sleeping in a safe environment whatsoever being on top of a van full of blankets that aren't even cellular, probably not being anywhere near a hospital if god forbid something happened either, also I am pretty certain she should be above 5oz by now.
It'll all come crashing down soon enough, and the only ones who are going to be majorly damaged by it is those kids. But they're too self absorbed to even care. I also get the vibe this man has some type of anger issue, I just get bad vibes from his general demeanor. Perhaps they have to live this way because at home, in REALITY, it is far from this "beautiful".

I’ve been saying this for months but you say it so much better than me.
They warn peanuts from YouTube literally like £20 per month. But think they are this aspirational ingham like family. In reality they watch the inghams religiously and copy everything they do. God knows why. Like chasing them to Scotland in 2020 and having their 4 kids sleep in a car. To him ‘renovating’ their ‘motor home’ fucking motor home an old rusty tiny van with 7 people living in it more like. Him making home mate heaters for the tents I actually fear for their safety. Having that baby camping in freezing conditions, not to mention the other 4. The children in the summer always burnt red raw, birth vlogs, the fact they leave their cats for months at a time. But the biggest thing for me is the fact both the parents are actual fucking fantasists. Will buy a motor home, will be visiting Europe this summer (without a passport between them), buying 5 electric scooters than never materialised, going to Disney. The list goes on and on.
In reality he’s on carers for the youngest boy, she keeps shooting them out, everyone needs dental work, the two big ones need socialisation (they’ve never ever been to school) and it shows. I get having a close family and doing stuff but those children are being terribly let down by those two ‘parents’.

I feel the same way about the dad, something about him that dosent sit right at all with me , His constant interrupting when ever the mum speaks , definitely has issues around drink he thinks it's ok to show drink driving ,stephanie thinks its perfectly ok to let him drive the kids about after drinking or is scared to say no to him ,anyone that looks up to the inghams is just

How he interrupts her, corrects her and then pretends to be so lovey dovey gives me so many red flags.

 

[Cocopops12]

She walked so close to the edge with the baby strapped to her, I was literally having a heart attack watching that. Give the baby to the father to hold if you want to risk your life.

Honestly they are a prime example of needing to pass an iq test before you breed! They seem sweet enough but they are literally stupid, can’t pronounce simple fucking word, put their kids at risk and seriously think they are ‘YouTubers’.

I also love how Caleb’s disability only comes out when they need it to for example when they were travelling all over the place during lockdown. They seem to use it when it suits, which is really sad.

I’m also really concerned, all of the children seem to have issues walking and running, I’ve noticed Dionne in particular but they’ve got them hiking in cheap Asda trainers. Whilst mummy and daddy have hiking boots.
