Why are people not questioning in the comments as to why they need to buy new decorations every year? People are stupid.
How many videos of kids opening predictable plastic tat can one audience watch? It was ok to begin with, but when there isn’t much else going on, it just makes them look very materialistic and unimaginative.
Nobody in that house seems to have any different personal interests (except maybe max, who enjoys science). It’s all generic fashionable plastic toys for younger kids, clothes/makeup for for older girls, and clothes/gaming for the older boys, plus the standard stuff like scooters, bikes and football.
There’s a real lack of individualism and personality in the kids. I thought at first that Archie might be different (with his love of wearing girl’s clothing), but even that I now just think was because he has no bother’s near his age so is around his similar age sisters mostly so picks up their clothes. Plus possibly there are more comments from Sue about how cute the girls look in their outfits, so it could have been an attempt to tap in on that attention.
Maybe I am on the wrong track, but with so many kids, I’d expect to see lots of different preferences and interests. The swimmer, the tennis player, the one who goes to drama clubs, the girl guide, the one who sits on their own doing puzzle books, the one who has a big career ambitions, the one who always has their head in a book, the one who is involved in the school student leadership team, the one who has joined the army cadets.
There seems to be literally nothing unique about each child. They are just being born to be materialistic girls who are destined to aim to become mothers themselves, and lazy boys without much ambition with gaming habits. Chloe is the only one who partially broke the mould with not wanting kids at a young age, but even her career ambitions were predictable, the makeup following on from the ‘girl’ presents and activities, and the pie factory out of necessity. I get the impression that those of the kids who end up at the pie factory don’t have any genuine love of catering, it’s just a convenient to be able to get a job without an interview or experience.
It was apparently Chloe who expanded the business online, but we never see any of the workings of that. Showing her interest and her determination in getting that working could have made a good vlog. Also the running of the bakery, not just a tour or briefly showing a pie made…but the shop and customer interaction, the organising, ordering, who does what. How they actually work together as a family and are there also non-related employees. What about the older kids, where are the conversations about their futures, decisions on whether they should take A-levels etc. We see nothing of any value or importance in the vlogs. No information on budgeting for a large family, no information on keeping their impact on the world around them of being such a different to an average families to a minimum (such as recycling and careful purchasing, and things like ensuring their large group doesn’t overtake and stop other members of the public being able to enjoy being in that same location - the kids haven’t been taught any consideration). We don’t see kids doing any household chores or be rewarded for good behaviour or see educational, sports achievements, interview successes being celebrated.
There are plenty of interesting things to vlog, such as showing people actually achieving things, yet they just show us paper being ripped off plastic toys and then showing off all the things they get for free such as the Alton towers passes. They haven’t even really shown that particularly well, if the purpose is to advertise it as an attraction.
With them advertising things, same as with some other influencers who are just ‘grabby’ and not humble…I’m actually more inclined NOT to use the thing they advertise on principle. If they for example are getting very expensive passes for Alton Towers for free, totalling thousands for such a large family, with little to zero appreciation shown for how much that is worth…then why the hell should I want to pay full price for such a pass myself? The price customers pay covers many other costs as well as the staff and ride maintenance on the day of entry, so including all their advertising and Freebies they give out. So why should my pass be more expensive to cover the costs the business has spent on these ungrateful gits?
Anyone funding this family, unless it is for essentials to directly improve the children’s education or basic nutrition, so to pull them upwards from being disadvantaged by the bad parenting…doesn’t get my money.
Think about the message the companies are sending to both the viewers, but more importantly the Radford children. They are being shown that it’s not hard work and perseverance that gets you nice things in life…it’s have a large, selfish and careless family. They are growing up with a distorted view of success, which they are unlikely to be able to replicate themselves. Maybe this is what Millie is now starting to see, that being part of a big family is just a fact of circumstance as a child, it’s not a commercial enterprise and when treated as one, at some point the children will start to unravel when they find it’s not sustainable as long term lifestyle. At some point the kids will grow up and the audience and advertisers will lose interest, something Sue in particular will struggle with. She needs another baby, not to complete her family, but to keep her name in the papers.
Just tell all or shhh lmao
