Please don`t think i`m prying or being patronising ,but i understand how you feel.One of my girls is very introverted ,despite having contact when she was younger ,and i`ve always been quite shy around people.Do you have any neighbours who you like ,who smile or wave ,or just say hi when you see them? When my neighbour moved in 3 yrs ago ,she was a self confessed hermit.I decided to bite the bullet ,sent her a new home card ,and we took it from there.Covid`s made it hard at times ,but we`ve sat in our respective gardens at times ,and talked about anything that came to mind..i`m sure i`ve repeated things ,as has she (and we`re not quite ancient yet:).You may find just one person who feels like you ,that they`re stuck inside alot ,and have nothing to say.It`s amazing what you can chat about once you start.Anyhow ,i just wanted to let you know someone understands and cares (as i`d bet money on us all being the same).If ever you feel you`d like to chat ,if you`re on any other social media ,please yell.Xoxo
Thank you for your kind words. I live in a block of flats and do say hi to neighbours if i see them in the stairwell or out the front but i still find it hard to make conversation, ive been through a lot and as a result tend not to trust anyway to let them in (if that makes sense). We dont have a garden so not able to socialize outside either. I am on a few other social medias, if you want to message im good with that. Thank you again 😍

Why in the intro that Creepy edited put boobs on Isabelle (his child) but not even his wife? He is really living up to his nickname huh.

Their house looks so plain and clean in a bad way? I'm Izzy's age so I don't have any parental/adult perspective, but my families house looks "Lived in", as my mum would say. We have a guitar resting against our couch, some candles on a coffee table, blankets and random colour cushions on our couch. "random" things that are ours and we use regularly. Their walls are so plain too? I don't know about anyone else's house but my mum literally has a wall in our living room covered in photos of me and my sister. And the Christmas decorations? Our christmas tree isnt a plain white/beige colour, we have neon tinsel and a "random" assortment of ornaments on our tree, because even though they dont match each one has a story behind it. For example we have some that me and my sister made, or ornaments from when my mum was a kid etc etc. did the kids even help decorate the tree? We have tinsel on the wall and foil decorations from the ceiling! WHY ARE THEIR WALLS SO BARE????

Sorry for the mini rant, I'm geuniely disturbed about the fact they have 5 kids yet their living room, the room you usually spend the most time in, looks straight up like a stock image or a picture from a tv set.

I’m sorry but if they are now going to feature Isla more we are going to need subtitles because I can’t understand a word she says.
As for prinny being home it’s obvious Lazy is not best pleased the way she pulls away from her if the dogs mouth comes in contact with her skin is pathetic after the way they have been living for months unwashed dirty hair etc that dog is 100% cleaner than them, then you have Chris oh mila doesn’t like her and lazy grabbing her come here darling WTF, the child has spent all her life in a DPD VAN so properly has no idea what a dog is. Then you have issy standing in just a sweatshirt no trousers on with her mouth wide open at yet another crap Christmas tree.
As for Jace dear god that child needs to stop with the shouting and constant interrupting half the time you can’t hear anything there saying because he’s shouting over the top.
None of the children have any manners it’s a disgrace.

Everybody saying what the kids should do about school and socialising seems to be forgetting that what Creepy did makes any of it impossible. That’s why they are in this mess in the first place.
I agree. That dirty bastard has ruined those girls lives.

Is the carpet wrinkled in places like a discounted purchase? Seen it a few times and it don't look like shadow marks or anything

I would be worried about Esme not wanting to do anything if I was Sarah. I wasn't really a big fan of clubs/activities when I was a child and by Esme's age didn't go to any - but I was in school all day and had friends that I saw regularly outside of school. We did things without parents such as swimming, walks, shopping, cinema. There's also a lot more choice of activities now compared to when I was younger and if they are so well off then cost/equipment shouldn't be an issue.

She's said both Esme and Isabelle definitely do not want to go to school and don't want to go to any clubs, so should be looking at why and what they are actually going to do. Does she really think Esme can avoid any contact with people from outside the house and then function as a normal adult, make friends, form relationships and be able to cope with things such as job interviews and work alongside other people?

The reality is they will not join any clubs because it can't be vlogged, it costs money, and you have to commit some time to it. You can't join and then go off for months because there will be a waiting list for that place. They also have 1 car, don't seem to have much in the way of public transport, no family/friends around and live in a village with nothing there so the logistics of even getting at least 3 children to/from clubs that might be on the same days would be too much for them to handle. We've seen that they all have to sit around at home because Sarah has decided to go off shopping so no one else can do anything. Lots of people make it work if they have to but it would make much more sense for them to have stayed where they were before with good public transport and get a second small car to give them more options of splitting up. They would have had a lot of options of things to do in both Bradford and Leeds, with a train station just down the road and I'm sure buses going into both cities.

Jace could start at a school nursery after Easter, entirely for free and I think that would be really good for him to have some time away from the family, have some structure and routine to his day and make some friends. He could make a start on learning so that even if they decide not to send him to school at least he'd have done some basics taught a lot better than Chris/Sarah will be able to do. My daughter was only 3 (almost 4) and in nursery when the first lockdown happened and then in reception the second time the schools closed and it was far more difficult teaching her than getting my older child to do his work. There is no "independent learning" where you can just send them off to copy BBC bitesize, online zoom lessons she was bored after 5 minutes and needed constant attention to keep up with what was going on so no just getting a tutor and leaving them for an hour. There is no way Chris or Sarah would be able to teach the younger ones how to read and no way they will be able to commit to the next 18 years of homeschooling so at some point the younger ones will end up in a school and will be in an even worse position than the older girls.
It’s a crying shame the kids were pulled out of private school and even more especially that Isla didn’t attend. However, the girls didn’t appear to joined groups or societies within the school. There would have been debating groups, chess club, drama, sport and many others they could have benefited from but they didn’t seem to try any. It can be frustrating at times, my middle daughter tried everything and lasted a few months at each. She was a total butterfly but by she found her niche (chess and hockey) she had developed a competitive spirit that served her well for the future. We all would love to keep our kids close but must teach them to fly and make their own way in a very demanding world.
