I am actually disgusted by those prices, to think these freeloaders are just handed it all on a plate for free. The most disgusting thing is you just know it won't be looked after. The children aren't taught to respect anything (no wonder I guess, when they're so use to all their luxury items being gifted for free).
This new lifestyle is a far cry from the humble large family we were first introduced through the media about 8 years ago. The family who appeared to budget and reuse. I know which version I preferred. Their new lifestyle makes them appear incredibly greedy, entitled and unlikable and it's fascinating to see how the tide is rapidly turning in terms of general public opinion towards them. It's also going to create massive problems for those youngest kiddies (Max/Tillie down) when it all dries up (which it will, when the new babies do) and they can no longer afford such a lifestyle.
I see a massive change in the teenagers since the start of the series (the eldest lads always came across so likeable and humble, whereas the current crop of teens, from Millie down, are generally bratty and entitled, well the girls at least). The one who has changed the most seems to be Katie. I generally thought she was incredibly sweet and mature, all things considered, up until about a year or so ago. Now she's started to show off to the cameras and milk the 'fame'. It's such a shame. Tillie is the other who has changed so much in the last year but for totally different reasons. I really feel for her. She use to hog all the limelight and actually be a bit annoying but since her op bless her it's so plainly obvious her self-esteem is shot and her needs aren't being met, and now she seems content to just blend into the background bless her.
