It's pretty easy to find info on them if you're curious...like me, and I live in the other side of the country. I'd never do anything with it though.

Not to be offensive but I feel like a lot of them who comment have learning difficulties. No idea how they'd know all of the school info unless they live in the area because Steve never mentions any friends apart from that Mark Webley occasionally.

Steve has definitely had other 'Youtuber' friends. I mean others who have channels. For some reason they seem to leave after a while and never be mentioned by him again!

He doesn't seem like the type to be able to keep up a friendship. They used to be friendly with Rose's parents and would go to each other's houses but that seems to have fizzled out too. Didn't he go and meet a couple of viewers once and they just sat in the car with him? 😂
 
Haven’t watched his you tube for a long time because they used to depress the help out of me
when i first came across them before they had chloe i thought they seemed a lovley family- the kids were lovely and so polite and xmas / birthdays they were all ways so thankful
just watched a recent video and cannot believe it (well , actually yes i can )
he’s sat there shocked because the youngest came down and ask to put her pjs on and when he asked why she said “well no ones coming and we’re not going out so what’s the point in getting dressed!”😮😮
i mean what 5/6 year old does that, it’s so sad that at that age she just thinks that’s normal to stay in and not get dressed , i mean we all have days where we decide to have a chill day but it’s every day , after day, after day
im betting diamonds that they will end up having chloe assessed due to her poor speech and the fact she doesn’t sleep , she’s had an ipad permanently attached since she was about 6 months , i remember maybe a year ago or so people were commenting on her speech as u could barely tell what she was saying , but steve said they weren’t concerned because school haven’t noticed anything- well maybe because when she’s at school, teachers actually talk to her and not with a phone in her face and an ipad next to her to watch
and don’t get me started on the fact they were just handed a new build 4 bed house when we r working our guts off so we can rent and save a deposit for our new house , i know people have different circumstances but i don’t know how he can’t work when all the kids are in school and rachel works part time - i know he had anxiety issues and believe me i wouldn’t want to wish that on anyone but he’s happy enough to film his daily life for the world to see
Oh and i do feel for sophie , she’s obviously very uncomfortable being filmed, i’m sure it’s been said before she’s had problems at school with it so why doesn’t he get the message and not film her
anyway i could go on but i’ve rambled on enough now
 
I think Sophie and Tiny are no longer together. Steve saying in today’s vlog she’s sad and he said to her “you still have mum and dad and your friends”. She’s also removed all her tiktok videos with him.

I noticed they got a pillow spray to help with sleep, are they expecting miracles?! Surely the answer is obvious!! They can spray whatever they want but it’s not going to work when the lights are on, they’re using devices/watching tv and messing around. Seriously, surely they’re not thinking they can do all this but a little pillow spray will get them to sleep?! Can’t believe Chloe has been up until 2am. I don’t know any parent of young children who goes to bed whilst the kids are still messing around. Most parents would make sure the kids are settled first. They need to take control and actually do some parenting here.
 
bloody pillow spray 😂😂😂
it’s no secret that the blue light from screens suppresses your natural melatonin production and the fact it’s not even a tv across the room but right next to her face is not good
then add a sugary hot choc on top of that 🤦‍♀️
i wonder how she will be when school starts again , they have time now to try and sort a routine and get her to be able to have a healthy nights sleep
but no that’s going to be too much like hard work 😔😔
 
It's their fault the children don't sleep, they are causing the problems and they have no one to blame but themselves. They allow the children to have access to unlimited snacks and drinks full of caffeine and sugar as well as let them play on devices with the bedroom light on. They chose to put their 5 year old and 11 year old in the same bedroom.

They can use pillow pray, they can try weighted blankets but its never going work unless they stop trying to be friends with their children and actually do something about it. They don't want to deal with the attitude and tantrums so they let the kids do what they want.

I feel so sorry for Chloe, she is a child, she doesn't understand how important sleep is. It is going to really effect her when she goes back to school.

It also isn't fair that they are allowing Chloe and Lacey to wake up the other children in the night. It's an important year for Liam going into his first year of secondary school and Sophie is starting year 10 which can be really stressful!

They got extremely lucky with getting the new house - I remember Steve saying that some people had commented about it when they had just gotten approved to have it and he defended himself by saying they didn’t “scrounge” the house and “we’re on the same bidding site (with the housing association) as other families who work full or part time” and it wasn’t handed to them.

But it brings into question the fact in a Q and A years ago before Chloe was around Steve said they didn’t want any more kids after Lacey and Liam and then in a bunch of vlogs after that he would sometimes bring up problems with the house or how they didn’t like living there anymore and boom Chloe comes along. I don’t want to assume they just had another child for the sake of getting onto a priority list for overcrowding but the timing was definitely in their favour.
 
i just find it really bizarre that they literally never go anywhere
if i was to stay at home all day every day through the summer i would loose my mind -
i remember watching him a few years ago and the whole six week holidays they went nowhere apart from b&m etc (where either him or both him and kids would just sit in the car while rachel shopped)
then he’d organised a day trip and the kids were literally so excited , then the day before something went wrong with car so they never went , kids looked so upset - surley he could of just taken them on a bus and gone cinema and or swimming🤷‍♀️
they never seem to have kids friends over or have birthday parties , the kids seem to of never been to any clubs or swimming lessons or anything of the things kids do when they young
i know the past year has been an exception but even before covid it was like that
it’s just such a strange existence

Sophie used to see her friends and they used to come over.

We have only ever seen Lacey have one friend around the house. We have never seen or heard of Liam or Chloe having friends over which is a shame because those two are the most social!

Liam is always playing with his friends online so I don't understand why he doesn't just have a sleep over.

no sleepover because that would mean they would have to get dressed and keep them entertained

now i’ve just watched a few videos where they are on holiday, looks like they are at a haven site,
he said they don’t use the entertainment or do many activities because the kids aren’t interested 🤷‍♀️🤷‍♀️
i wonder if they even went swimming
then instead of going for lovely walks and doing all they normal family holiday stuff,, they are going to walk around the shops 🤦‍♀️🤦‍♀️
then when they at a theme park, steve’s constantly going on about how busy it is - it’s 6 week holiday course it will be busy!! he could of tried to distract her and reassure her - but he literally feeds her anxiety
i reckon if they would of taken kids to entertainment they would enjoy it loads
sophie seems to be very unhappy and doesn’t want to be on camera but he carries on filming her ,
put the bloody camera down!!!

Wonder if he was mad they cancelled his trip the night before he was due to come after waiting all holidays to come over. As someone else said Steve will he happy he can now avoid doing the only thing that got him out the house except shopping .

I was going to say it's a shame if Tiny broke up with her just because her dad cancelled it. But then remembered the reason he gave for cancelling was partly Sophie's behaviour. At least there was some consequences for it this time (I mean cancelling the visit, not the break-up because that will hit her hard at that age).
 
oh dear poor sophie, bless her , we all know how heartbreaking it is when you break up with your first boyfriend, it’s awful and you just think you’re never going to get over it
she could do with having a friend to stay or going out and enjoying herself with friends ,not having her dad shove a camera in her face when she’s clearly very upset

I hope they let her have someone stay over or she stays at someone’s cause she’ll need a friend.
