Love it!All this underage drinking? Does it go backwards and forwards and how many GCSEs does it have?
I understand not making it taboo, but I also think it shouldn't be as widely accepted. I had great times and awful times drinking. My dad died last year at 49 because of alcohol - he died slowly over two years. So I'm probably biased. But it seems sad that they needed a drink to enjoy time together? And that so many people feel the same way, if you need alcohol to have fun there is something wrong and could lead to reliance. I think open discussion is great and A drink every now and again with food is OK, but drinking before the best night of the year (for them) is sad and shouldn't be needed.

I can see Izzy turning to drink when she’s about older or even now drinking out of boredom too can happen that’s when problems start.
This 4% thing and drinking a whole crate is wild. It's not cool to abuse alcohol. Yeah we all got drunk with big groups of friends in the mid 2000's camped out and had a blast, but most of us grew out of abusing alcohol im sure. And the ones I know who didn't grow out of it died - are jobless or drug addicts. So no it's not cool or okay to glamorise binge drinking, or really under age drinking. Our minds and body's weren't developed, and my mum sure as tit wasn't drinking to spend time with me and have fun. My dad he was an alcoholic and I didn't see him for the best part of 20 years until he was dying because alcohol ruins lives and families and should be respected.
Just shows how the girls don’t have friends!The radfords daughter was on a tiktok live with friends a few years ago and someone asked if she was friends with any of the inghams and she was laughing saying basically they got forced into having to meet them for an hour at Disneyland Paris during a show and Big Saz invited her for a sleepover with the girls and they had only just met the kid was laughing
And does it earn 10k a day?All this underage drinking? Does it go backwards and forwards and how many GCSEs does it have?
I’ve tried to keep out of this, but I myself dabbled at probably Esme’s age, went on to have 7 sons, and imo it was far better to have them and their mates round on a Friday or Saturday for a sleepover with a few cans of lager with the other parents permission, and the novelty wore off and was more, gaming, later on decks and music, but my point is all kids will try and imo it’s better to take the novelty away, all mine grown and no alcohol issues, but isobelle especially is still at that naughty ( shouldn’t be doing it stage, where in actual fact she should be out with mates doing what she wants! And that doesn’t mean necessarily drinking, those kids are going to be dragged off somewhere now and isobelle is going to think that broom cupboard in Dubai was a palace! It’s sad on so many levels for all those kidsWhen I was younger a lot drank for clout because they thought it was cool
My parents weren’t drinkers but they’d have a bottle of wine when friends came over or if they were hosting a party there would be a lot more drinks about and we would have a can or a glass of wine as teens but alcohol tasted yuk and because it wasn’t made out to be anything cool or unusual with everyone being really chill then it lost its appeal and I hardly drink at all as an adult.

I think she definitely has adhd!!!
Im really old! lol my first baby was in 1979 and because of complications I had to spend 3 months in hospital ! I didn’t even drink then at all, but we were encouraged to drink Guinness! To boost our iron ! lol unbelievable but true! And that’s not really that long backExactly....tbh I would never blink looking them cans in the room because there is 2 adults legal there and I wouldn't batter an eyelid for esme to have one.
Evan if lazy was BF one wouldn't hurt not at Rodney's age (a bottle of vodka yes 1 can at 4% no) I remember having a glass of wine a couple if times (I BF for 4 years)
I know alot of people don't like that at all but it's really not worth picking the inghams apart about
ETA ? I declined! lol not through knowledge or morality, i just thought and still do to this day it smells gross! But thats just my opinionIm really old! lol my first baby was in 1979 and because of complications I had to spend 3 months in hospital !

I think she’s probably just an annoying little twit who’s been told she’s something specialSorry but Esme is doing my head in lately I think she definitely has adhd!!!
God help the poor beggar that nabbed Lazy. Hope he’s gotten health insurance.I’ve not heard of the house swap thing, but wouldn’t it be fun to see them do a Wife Swap
With a family that grows their own food, educates their children and live decent, active lives. It’d make great TV but the poor woman who ends up living as an Ingham

Well said! You can do your best but kids will be kids ! Unless you’re an ingham and living the cult life poor little sods, they irritate me especially Esme, but they don’t know anything different, she genuinely thinks she’s famous! She is! But because of her bloody weird dad! He is certainly laying low atm!I grew up with very strict parents who didn't allow me to drink at all before 18, my best friend had really relaxed parents who were happy for her to have few wkds/smirnoff ices etc.
Most weekends we were both paralytic in a field. I don't think you can control it either way.
Had forgotten that. I was in hospital on bed rest for three months before my eldest was born in 1980. Mums to be were encouraged to have guiness every now get. We were also given a sleeping bag tablet. Fast forward to my hysterectomy in 1990 (a private hospital) my consultant insisted his ladies had two glasses of red wine each evening to ‘build them up’. He would occasionally join you for a glass if you had a particularly good bottle. It sounds ludicrous now.Im really old! lol my first baby was in 1979 and because of complications I had to spend 3 months in hospital !
