The reel about the whole perfect childhood thing that they have reposted to all their social media’s is definitely a way of trying to justify their lifestyle. Of course your children are going to say they have a perfect childhood , any kid would jump at the idea of never having to go to school , not having to get up early and allowed go to bed at whatever time they want , getting absolutely whatever crap they want as soon as they demand it , being allowed to eat sweets and crap whenever they want , basically just having money thrown at them , and going to theme parks and swimming pools all the time and being encouraged to never obey any rules. What child wouldn’t think that is absolutely brilliant ? ( they are basically permanently living most kids novelty / once every now and again lifestyle) However they are children and do no see the long term effects that this short lived “mega” lifestyle is going to bring them, they are basically sacrificing the children’s whole adult / teenage life for a few years of “mega” living which they probably won’t remember half of because they are so young , especially Jace and mila , by the time they get to the age where they will actually start to have memories this tit show will be over and they will be directly damaged. What happens when they are no longer children , the money runs out and they have absolutely no life skills?? Also Esme is 13 and behaves like she is 6 , she is so held back imagine how much of a shock it’s going to be when she has to actually grow up. To me the perfect childhood consists of having a family who loves and cares about you , makes sure you have every opportunity to succeed in the future , spends actual time with you and doesn’t just shove new toys at you every week to keep you quite , feeds and washes you properly , gives you their undivided time and attention and not everything you demand. They make it out like their kids are the only ones who have a magical childhood because they take them to Disneyland constantly , In my opinion that takes the novelty and magic away. Getting the amount of stuff they get all year round takes the magic of Christmas away and the feeling of getting something you have desperately wanted for ages ! You can already see that everything has become so anticlimactic for them because they are constantly bombarded with “mega exciting surprises” that they can’t differentiate between anything. In my opinion they have the saddest , most materialistic , exploited childhood but they won’t realise this until they grow up and leave the ingham cult. Although issy is nearly 17 and still brainwashed , so it’s not looking to promising she will ever find her own way in life.
