I am convinced she is sabotaging her children's futures deliberately by:This is SO accurate, the educational delusions drive me nuts!!
It’s not just Isabelle. All the children’s education is now hanging in the balance; often the eldest sets a precedence in a family.
Even when she’s teaching Jace, it’s so one sided. No mark making, never practicing his name, no phonics, no art, no PE, no science, no basic maths (other than looking at numbers) Now, I know he’s only 2, almost 3….but think how much pre schoolers do in nursery’s and really he is not getting anything near what he needs. The sad part is that Sarah thinks she is a “home educator”, she even talks as if she’s an expert!
Also, poor invisible Isla, she was such a clever little thing…god only knows where they will all end up educationally
1. Limiting their education, and I'm not just referring to home education. It's almost as if Lazy wants to keep her older children as uneducated as her. I'm sorry, but you don't shift their whole education off on an unqualified tutor once a week and hope for the best. Forcing her poor teenage daughter to post some of her work or talking about her tutor sessions (one predicted grade 8 on a single paragraph doesn't mean anything) on social media to prove the haters wrong is just awful. She comes across as illiterate and are being brainwashed to believe that she has a career on IG or YouTube.
Poor Isla, the only one who actually enjoys learning in a conventional way is left in her room to work off Oak National Academy and BBC bitesize. How boring and sad. It breaks my heart. I wish I could get that child on a couple of zoom lessons and reignite her passion for learning, but I would never work for those parents, even if I was paid in gold bricks.
2. Hygiene. Not much hope there as the parents are not an example. How mortifying to mention your children's poor hygiene on YouTube for public consumption, cackle about Esme's hygiene issues, but letting your own nether regions have a good airing in a hotel pool on camera. It's freaking gross!
3. Nutrition: Let's keep everyone as unhealthy as possible with a fully stocked snack cupboard, toast and biscoff, even for the baby. The children look anemic, the whole lot look pasty, chunky (except Esme and Jace), out of breath and dehydrated. Baby led weaning is fine, but surely that doesn't mean you can substitute her diet with the tit you've been feeding her? Isn't this the time to ensure her little body gets all the nutrients it deserves?
Apalling table manners too, grabby and grubby, the lot of them.
This sounds harsh but Lazy, who is obsessed with size, wants to keep her children as unhealthy and unfit as her and her husband, as dirty as them and as feral and uneducated as possible.
