I was really rooting for you, especially as a woman of colour I also did not like the comment about black people but I told myself maybe I’m trying to be too analytical but now that you said the site is full of lick arses, it actually says a lot about the kind of person that you are. There is nothing wrong with seeing things differently, misunderstandings happen but ohh well you can do much better.

He's with Chelsea, so he just doesn't go for a kick around once a week. If he's going through the academy, I imagine even his schooling may change there internally also, so he will get a lot more time with his peers in the next few years. He's.the lucky one, he's gonna be out and about cos as much as him and his attached ball is annoying, he is going to get somewhere with his football and can spread his wings.
Sounds like what you are describing here is already coming to pass. Heze is going away for the night without Tim for the first time. He will also be studying with his teammates in a regular school set up.

Yeah it does! They said he will be home once a week. Good for him he will have structure and a balance between developing his talent and socialising with his peers.

That's great. Hopefully this is good for him.

Oh wait. Will he be gone once a week or at home once a week??

Nah I get what Big Natalie is saying. In London estates that’s how the youths speak, they are all (whatever ethnicity) growing up influenced by black culture. There’s a lot of language/phrases from the Caribbean and African cultures that the youth have adapted to “street” language these days🤷🏾‍♀️

now Tim didn’t grow up in the ends in Hackney. But
I get the feeling he grew up in London suburbs but obviously had all black friends growing up so he would use certain terms etc. Tim is not the worst wanna be black so bad white man i have come across. I have heard much worse!
So going by their vlogs and the hospital they go to they live very close to me. When they done the shopping I was like wait I go there all the time lol it definitely is not a ghetto or even a very diverse area. It is more like traveller types 😂 edited to add they don't live in Lewisham where they went to the Carribbean shop. They live near Orpington

They are COMPULSIVE liars, Tim cut Heze off when he tried to give detail. They will lie and say anything for a video, I don't trust them. Also Houston is my fave Grimwade, but when are they going to discipline her to not scream to get her way. She is going to make Ella's life a living hell when the baby arrives.

Tim just likes to hear himself talk. He will scold the children if they interrupt him and sometimes if they interrupt another child, but he can interrupt whoever he wants and anyone can interrupt Ella 😡 It made me so mad because I was genuinely interested in what Heze was saying. He got to talk the least. Now nobody is really sure of the situation because Heze was cut off. I think all of the children should be removed so they can get a proper education and I am hoping Heze will get some of that. I'm also hoping this will be a bit of a wake up call for him.

I’ve brought up the mixed race and adverts issue in an earlier post. Regardless of anyone’s opinions on what advertisers should or shouldn’t be doing in terms of representation…it’s plain to see that in that sector there is a current demand for mixed race child actors/extra’s, of which demographically they will be a minority in the local population. This means that when putting themselves forward for these roles, rightly or wrongly, their skin colour is a useful trait. They are also easily available as there is no school schedule to work around, and once they have done one job and they behave well, they will be put forward for more. Add to that Ella’s family contacts, which may help them find the best route to getting agents etc.

But take 100 randomly selected child actors working in the uk today, where would the Grimwade kids score if tested against others on their acting skills?

They aren’t in any drama schools or even local am dram. I don’t see anything specifically wrong with putting your kids forward for these things, it can be a fun day out and a confidence boost, but where I disagree is that they are using these minor jobs to push the idea onto their daughters that they will be actors/dancers when they grow up. I don’t agree that the work they are getting now will lead to that conclusion and it could be damaging for the girls to experience that failure later on.

If they wanted to really understated whether their kids have the necessary talent, and whether it is a good move to encourage them into those fields, they should be getting them some kind of tuition in order to receive feedback on whether this is going to be an option for them longer term.

As with Heze, he trains at Chelsea Academy, so although he may not make it to pro as an adult, he must have enough ability at this stage for it to be worth pursuing, so with him at least there is a group of professionals confirming he has real promise.

Heze getting schooling at the academy will be interesting, not that they’d tell us this on YouTube, but would not be surprised he struggles with the expected level for his age. All he’s done so far is work on activity books, with parents who may not always be able to explain things he doesn’t understand properly while surrounded by much younger children and a lot of noise and distraction. He’s a bright boy, that is obvious when he speaks, and he probably feels he is bright as well…so it’s going to be a shock to his system if he finds the other children are much more advanced. I get the impression the ‘workbooks’ are just basic reading and maths for their age groups? At 11-13, which is the group he’s being taught with they would be expected to already have some basics in sciences, geography, computing, the variety of subjects and level is like to be more advanced than his home schooling. If there are any problems with his overnight at the academy, it won’t be the football, behaviour or missing home….it will be the stress of the education sessions.

Omg. Tim seriously sitting down watching Ella dish up all the food for all the kids?
My husband is from a quite traditional family and we have only 2 kids, I am not pregnant but for God's sake if I give food to one kid he automatically gives to the other one..then we can eat on time. Ella is pregnant and they have 6 why can't that lazy ass help out it won't be a big effort and he can't even help himself for seconds Ella has to do that too!!
If I was Ella I would be so ashamed and never show that on camera..Tim the big kid is hungry, next time spoon feed him love..him first, not Houston of course, she can soon cook for herself too.

I also feel Heze will struggle with the academic level expected of him but let's hope he can catch up to his peers as I belive he is bright.

It's so funny though how these parents don't believe in the educational system and in fact have been very negative about it! They only want it when it suits them!

Oh, Heze's hair isn't blue anymore. That's interesting.
I hated that blue colour..he's a child and I don't think kids should dye their hair anyway but blue is another level and if I'm right it wasn't his own idea but Ella's.

Im just happy this child is going to be doing something by himself without his parents and siblings around him. It must be bleeping tiring at some point to be constantly watched, to not hangout with friends and just go to football practice or stay home. Jeeez.

It’s just sad that they don’t allow the kids to go to school with the excuse of not wanting their kids to have outside influence or whatever bullshit and now Heze will be spending the night somewhere else around people he barely knows, obviously their values are not as strong as they make it seem to be. When money and fame talks, everything is allowed. Ridiculous parents. I really hope I don’t become such a disappointment to my child someday.
