The Ingham Family #332 So brown to earth, no holes barred, we only need one debit card!

Totally agree with you. I didn’t do my degree til I was 22 but had all the relevant GCSEs to get onto the course, but there were people on my course who were in their 30s/40s/50s who had to retake their English or maths GCSE’s to get onto it. So even if the mingham kids aren’t interested in their qualifications now and don’t see them as necessary that could all change as they get older and want to take a different path in life if they’re ever allowed to leave the cult I can’t see Isla wanting a career in social media in a few years time. They’re gonna be up shits creek without a paddle because they can’t even manage basic spelling and grammar, their speech is limited to “cute” and things that don’t even make sense like “very lot”. Clearly “home educating” isn’t working for them when the teenagers and “adult” can’t even grasp the basics of the English language

They are stupid to say the least, to think that social media will give them a living. Apart from the obvious basic skills of English and Maths, it is important to learn HOW to learn, and learn HOW to revise and pass exams. Everyone has to apply themselves to certain tasks at times, whether it is written or practical - none of these kids would know where to begin. And that's without basic social skills that are needed in every walk of life, regardless of job. Sarah might be patting herself on the back for the great job she's doing, but it will come crashing down, slowly but surely, in different ways, with each and every one of those children. And it will be the fault of her and her repulsive husband.

I appreciate your reply, but you seem to be talking about children of secondary school age, which I agree is an altogether different experience. The comment I posted mentioned young children, which is why I posted saying the park and playing with children on holiday is nothing like the friendships children make at school. Of course there are always going to be children who don't enjoy school and struggle to find friends, but at least school gives them the chance to find these friendships and socialise with others. Where as the younger Ingham children have a few random children in the playground and a brief encounters on holiday.

Agree, the Ingham children have been denied opportunity to try school not because of bullying or neurodivergence but because the parents have fucked any chance of a normal life and also because they want to use them for their own gain financially.
Sarah can learn all about home education/schooling and then verbal diarrhoea it as much as she wants, she isn’t fooling me. Those kids are learning absolutely nothing, are socially stunted and physically unwell.

Trolls diagnosing Jace for being handsy...the irony that kid is using those very hands to fiddle with his sisters ears! There's something happening somewhere...

Major red flags that he has not only been allowed but actually given permission from his parents and actively encouraged to touch his younger sisters without their consent and against their will! Who brings their son up like that?! Yeah it’s just their ears at the moment but with no boundaries set, his upbringing and role models (Creepy? Andrew T? ) I can only imagine what that boy will grow up to be.

I especially enjoyed her comment about her five year old having more manners than the commentator. Sarah you and your husband have failed that child! He is rude grabby and bratty. You neglect his hair, his teeth, his eyes, his speech delay, his obvious socialisation problems, his inability to kerp his hands to himself, his fledgling misogyny and are making sure he is illiterate. You can insult all you like but each of those children are facing a life of disappointment thanks to terrible, selfish parents and it's going to come crashing down soon.

Sarah did explain the foundations of HE very well, I'll give her that. Might have taken her a while, but she has been reading through the FB groups to learn whatever she needed to for the vlog.

But any real home edder would first of all not use the term home schooling. And they'd mention their local HE community and all the weekly groups and meet ups. Talk about trips parents arrange to museums, parks, farms. Talk about one of the most popular online tuition hub that offers lessons you don't see in the curriculum. But she hasn't experienced any of them. Just picked up a few maths English and geography books from WHSmiths

Let's also not forget Jane used to take the girls to school as Lazy was never ready in time. They live in the middle of nowhere now, and not a chance lazy is going to get up and ready to take them to school. What an inconvenience that would be

Click to expand...

She can say all the words she wants that she has learnt reading up on various FB forums etc but if it is not clogged it doesn't happen in that house

Those kids are not receiving any education at all , they are so zoned out of learning that even when they are travelling they take no interest in their surroundings or any history . Esme doing geography ? Thats a laugh get taken the arctic twice bet she couldn't tell anyone a single geographical fact about it !

They make no effort in the vlogs to explain anything about the countries they visit , and reading from Wikipedia is just reading out loud Sarah !

She's got no chance teaching the younger 3 to read. I was talking to the lady who runs one of the groups we go to last week. About how I'm glad my daughter made it through primary school. As I can't get my head around phonics. She used to be a teaching assistant. And she said it took a lot of training to get to grips with phonics. Who's traing you Sarah?

And please do a video telling us parents how to make time for shopping trips for cute littul summer clothes. I need to know as I'm currently sat outside my daughters dance class. Then straight home for online maths. Then I need to sit with her & listen to her reading. Then my other two will be home from school. School holidays are when I get to have a trip to town or browse around Asda or a shopping mall. So tell me, how does one manage to do it several times a week with 4 children with different educational needs

I’m glad someone has commented on Jace and his behaviours.
She’s still online trying to argue. Funny the most liked comments are those that don’t agree with her. Trying to say the kitchen is where the education takes place - there is not a single piece of evidence that shows any form of actual home education is taking place besides a few educational games for Mila and Jace that come out for the camera.

Hi Lazy, we know you read here.

Wow basically admitting it now
Hi Sarah. You’re married to a man who fancies teens and you are failing your children.

Hi Sarah, ask to see your mortgage statement, your bank statement and savings accounts.....also ask for your own bank card.

Hi Sarah , done your washing yet ?

After what happened to your dear friends husband , ask to see your life insurance policies too

What do you think about your husband’s fanatical admiration of Andrew Tate ?

I guess i did the whole home schooling thing wrong during lock down because there were days we would start at 9 and not finish until 4pm. My dd4 was in year 5 at the 1st lock down and we took the subject of ancient Rome and rolled with it. Maths, english, science, Art etc were all based around this subject. Topic time was spent learning more about Ancient Rome. She even designed and made a mosaic from glass tiles like they did in the ancient rome days. She really enjoyed home schooling. She suffers with social anxiety so would be very easy for me to have kept her home after the lockdowns all finished Nearly 2 years worth wasn't it? But we decided that wouldn't help her and she needed to be around people her age more. She was so excited to take her work in and show her teachers what she had learned while not being in school. And when she had done tests equal to the sats as those wasn't running she excelled them and was invited to take the 11+ (she didn't as i didn't see the point)
She is now in year 9 and has been invited to take her GCSE's in maths and English a year early... So Esme's age group. Can you picture Esme taking her exams this year?

Sarah is blind to the whole concept of education, no matter the amount of crap she spouts based upon so called 'studies' (we all know it was just another blog she read) By the age of 8 all my children had read books like northern lights, harry potter series, Wizards of once series, Goodnight mr tom etc etc etc Again JAce is so far off being able to read independently by that age.

Off ya go though lazy and creepy, dragging those kids on yet another useless, pointless 'holiday' and pretend to the world they are learning in the big wide world, sat by the pool, annoying each other and talking into their phones... What would they do if they actually brought in the laws of banning phones for all under 16? You could have actually given them an amazing education on your travels but alas you aren't educated enough yourself to do such. Such a waste.

Note Lazy doesn't mention the reason Tattle say Isabelle was bullied at school.

Can't even type the 'wild' theory that Isabelle's stepdad and Lazy's husband is a creepy child sex pest groomer.

Hey Sarah, we know there’s no learning going on in that kitchen because it always looks like a bombs hit it with crap all over the place …. No sign of any schoolwork at all.

If you really were home educating, the kids would naturally talk about topics, their vocab would have moved on from “cute” and their general intelligence would be greater than it was four years ago. But it’s clear they’re all stuck at the level they were at when they left school. Poor Isla has regressed.
FOUR YEARS. You should be ashamed of yourself. Give Chris a talking to and stand up for yourself and your children. They will not thank you for any of this in 10-20 years time!!

Isla hated dancing because she wasn't allowed to talk or make friends in class...SUREEEEE. I'm a dance teacher. We do expect our kids to be respectful and not talk in class when we are working on something, because, shock horror, it's a lesson, but there's also plenty of time for fun and for encouraging the kids to make friends and show their personalities. Just a quick look at their most recent dance school's Facebook page shows the kids there taking part in all kinds of fun activities, as well as working hard on learning new skills. They do fun themed workshops and half term holiday camps. Maybe Sarah if you actually let your child take part in things instead of dragging her away on holidays every few weeks then she would actually get a chance to make friends.

We sadly would not keep a child on our registers who was only there for a couple of weeks at a time as there is always a waiting list. We also charge fees monthly and if you are away on holiday and miss a week or two we still expect fees to be paid. There's no reduction in fees for classes missed (unless we have to cancel the class and even then we try and make it up first). Most likely they didn't want to continue to pay while they were away on a trip and the dance school wouldn't hold the girls spot. And as always it's the kids who miss out.

Some takeaways from lazys crafty, curated conspiratorial on how to replace schooling with B&M hauls. She states anyone can go online and get the information, you don't need to be a trained teacher apparently. You'd wonder then why your Government are wasting money and resources bothering to train teachers at all. They've already told the second eldest she doesn't need to bother with Gcse's. She also indicated she's happy for them to do an hour a day of learning because that's all they would do in school. If that was even happening it would be an improvement on reality. There is no education happening in that house. Those kids have spent the earlier part of this year surviving sub zero temperatures and on their return home it's been a constant stream of shopping, babysitting, ordering online, packing suitcases, hyperactive nappy ordering, putting crap in tupperware boxes and accompanying the manchild pervert to get his eyebrows dyed and haircut/the back of his neck stretched over his forehead.

What is this that everywhere they go outside of their bubble, her children are told to shut up and not say anything? School, now dance class. The irony considering it’s her awful voice telling Isla to be quiet for ruining her pathetic video! Also the entitlement of her audacity that her children dare be told what to do by someone else I know it’s a foreign concept to her, but places have rules and manners in place for children to follow for a reason. I doubt very much it was as she is making out and that actually they were just required to actually take turns or focus on someone else for a change!

She’s not a ‘home educator’, concerned with providing her children an education, just like he’s not even remotely like Andrew Tate. Both are just proxy characters they find it easier to defend than what they actually are, which is an infamous child-sex predator and his vile enabler, who have completely destroyed any chance their children have by their own consistently selfish and immoral actions.

If Chris and Sarah continued their own learning or education (formally or informally) they might be more successful than they actually are! The book and 0totenk group is a prime example. Advertisers and audiences disengage if posts can't be understood. Learning how to actually utilise the upload function of YouTube effectively might also help.

I knew the post would end up in some kind of home ed debate and people telling us how clever their kids are.

I’ve said it before that I’ve met hundreds of home educators kids over the years and just like schooled children they are all different. Some quiet and shy, some outgoing and confident, some massively ahead academically and some not so much. There are kids with SEN who couldn’t cope with school and kids where home ed is an idealogical choice. My own kids are pretty independent, have friends, go to parties and groups, on scout camps etc, ahead academically in some areas, average in others, one struggles with maths, just like schooled children.

My main concern with the Ingham kids is that they are very isolated, they don’t regularly attend groups(home ed or otherwise). The lack of any social interaction is a huge red flag to me, it is clear Esme would thrive being around other girls her age(and would no doubt love a prom), Isla desperately needs some peers and Jace and Mila would benefit from having other children their own age to interact with, not just random kids at a park every now and then but the same kids on a regular basis that they can grow up with. It takes effort to do this as a home ed parent, you have to find things your kid enjoys and commit to it.

As for the 47 minute thing. That article about time being precious has been bandied around home ed groups for years now, tbh I’m a bit bored of seeing it. Sarah will have seen it shred many times just as I have.
