The Radford Family #18 Millie needy, Noel seedy, Radfords growing even more greedy

[Bambix]

thats great. And when you have had enough of renting it out I bet it will sell for a decent amount.

Josh seemed v grateful for his present but oh my lord Bonnie was being so annoying, why didnt someone grab her and sit her down on their lap? Also Phoebe and Hallie seem very competitive, probably bc theyre close in age, they always pout and frown if the other 1 has something they dont!!!

Christ that was annoying! Poor Josh has the patience of a saint.

Long time on looker here and just watched the tit show of Josh’s birthday vlog soz in advance if it’s already been mentioned but did anyone see Archie slap bonnie in the face at the end of the vlog can see in bonnies eyes she knew what he was going to do and not one of the “adults” seen it or checked him for it …..

I saw that, she only looked at him and he tried to slap her. Noel’s too busy filming and Sue is preoccupied with the heat coming off the candles - who knew candles were hot when lit?

I would just like to conratulate Sue, 20 odd kids, over 20 years in that house and you admit to finally getting stairgates that fitted (gifted of course)

So its obvious how important your kids safety was for all these years.

The last thing they want is the older kids out. Their whole schtick is Oh look at the amazing super mum and dad. 19 kids and a grandchild all under the one roof. If every one of their children from Millie's age up moved out tomorrow, they'd have 14 kids under the one roof. I mean sure 14 seems a tad excessive but it's hardly as spectacular as the 20 (their 19 and Ophelia) they're showing the world now. My dad was one of 13 and I went to school with a girl who was one of 15. TV networks don't pay big money to let the nation gawp at numbers like that.

 

[Little me.]

The more I read about this family the more bloody angry I get. They seem to believe it’s their God given right to produce all these clones and leave a gigantic carbon footprint.
Baby wipes alone, which contain plastic Mrs Chavfraud.
I wipe my children’s faces with a wet facecloth but she’s too bloody lazy to get off her fat arse and go and get one. One absolutely lazy witch.

Wow 85k for a 5 bed house.

I love this idea Bambix. However the Chavfraud's only live in the moment and never think about the future. Its madness now but when I was at uni, my student house was up for sale and it was £18k in 1997 so I just bought it with savings. I still own it now and rent it out to students and its the easiest money I make. Obvs houses cost far more than that now but Morecombe is a tit hole and house prices are well below the national average. I doubt they have a mortgage on their house so it baffles me why they are all still there. Fly the bleeping nest and live your own life! Millie will be there until the council cough up a house for her and Oh-feel-ya. OK. Rant over!

I came here to basically say this! They could buy houses, even if on small mortgages it would give the older kids a leg up onto the housing ladder. But they are far too short termism (probably not a word but you get the gist!)
But they’re about to spend 10s of thousands on doing up a rented factory unit.

Wow 85k for a 5 bed house.

From Hallie down they all seem to have such a nasty streak in them always grabbing hitting and crying a know kids will be kids but surely they should be checking them for it and the comment about the candles sums them all up really ….

That’s because they’re all spoiled brats.

I agree the smaller children are very spoilt. I think some of the older ones are more grateful as they remember the rationing of fish fingers and not having a lot of money. The younger ones just expect it. Someone did mention on YouTube I think but it’s prob been deleted now that josh didn’t get as many presents as heidie. They will argue that Josh’s cost but like it’s been said I don’t think they actually Got stuff josh wanted. He said it was similar to stuff he already had. I think they are too many children so sue and Noel obviously can’t keep up with all their different interests.

 

[Chunkeylaydee]

In one of the early series all the children ( from about Max up) we’re knocking lumps out of each other while sue sat on the sofa. The younger ones are just as bad for it.

seeing massive houses in different areas so cheap. Trying to convince hubby to pack up and move

The 5 bedroom house for £85k isn't all it seems. No parking, not even behind or in front of the house, if you want to park a car, you'll need to park on battismore road, which is a 5 minute walk away, no garden, just a small paved yard, constant traffic as it's a major route near the town center. It's an area of high level of socioeconomic deprivation, local schools are ok, but not outstanding. Sounds like a bargain, and would be ok for young adults starting out, but not suitable for families IMO.

Don't think video games can be blamed for this one. Think it's more to do with shoddy parenting and expecting kids to look after kids. They've had far more kids than they can manage all for media and none of them really get looked after properly. I played GTA when I was 8, didn't grow up shooting up corner shops and getting hookers in the back of the car. I mean, fair enough, maybe kids shouldn't be watching someone play CoD but it can't excuse every parental failure that these 2 have made.

And for whoever it was who asked, yes people do believe this 30k nonsense. And that they 'don't even claim anything, do it all off their own backs' bollox

Yes you're right. I doubt that either of them spend even a few minutes a day interacting one on one in any meaningful way with any of their tribe of kids. They've not been brought up they've been thrown into a litter and told to get up. No standards of behaviour can be taught on that basis and it shows in so many ways. The kids have no manners, they behave like feral animals climbing on tables and furniture. They communicate poorly because their language skills lag behind others their ages and anyway the only way to be heard in that cacophony is to shout. Their schooling is woefully neglected, they have no extra-curricular interests to help them learn how to socialise and they are literally fighting one another every waking moment for a modicum of parental attention.

Also it was me who asked if people actually believe that about the 30k p/a and no govt help ever claimed and I have to say, how bloody depressing to realise that thousands really do.

They'll never buy Millie a house, she'll be on the council waiting list as "overcrowded" and a single mum on universal credit no doubt til they find her a flat!

Yep,if they can't get it for free,why pay? They're like flies around tit when it comes to freebies

*can get it for free

So I lurk on the Duggarsnark subreddit and someone posted about income, which I thought applied to the Radfords as well. According to this persons thorough calculations, for a family of 22 people to live just above the poverty line they'd need to be making 217k in America, which is about 156k in british pounds. To live a middle class life (decent cars, occasional holidays) they'd need 350k, about 251k in gbp. The radfords live in a pretty cheap area but they clearly live a rich persons lifestyle, so they'd need to be making far far more than 250 thousand pounds a year for the 18 children at home (19 until recently) plus Ophelia and the two parents.

I know it's been said over and over and it's nothing new now, but 30k a year is utter rubbish.

I don't know if their socialblade projected income has been posted, but here is a link. They make a lot less on youtube than I expected .

Are they trying to say their only income is child benefit and the pie shop? The same business that has terrible reviews cos they never seem to post out orders? Correct me if I’m wrong please?
