Who was that gormless twit boy who opened up that iPad and just said “oh cool I do actually need a new one”. Then just proceeded to put it down.

Sorry, what. A new one? So you’ve already got one? And where’s the “thank you”??!

I would absolutely not be ok with posting this online for the world to see. I would be highly embarrassed if these were my children.

Didn’t he say he needed another one because the one he had he found smashed and he didn’t know how it was done. Nothing is taken care of in that house.

They really are appallingly rude children but the only people to blame for that are their parents. Kids need to be taught manners and they haven't done that. They are all so snatchy and grabby but they are entitled kids because everything they want they get and more. Sue and Noel should have kept things much simpler to avoid spoiling the kids, the money should have been invested in the kids futures - uni education, good jobs and housing. Then at least they could have turned round and said 'we did it all for you' when the kids inevitably turn on them for the lack of privacy. But no, they blow cash on holidays, expensive unnecessary gifts, poor nutrition, endless sweets and clothes. What good is that gonna be when the kids are grown, no qualifications, no future, no hope and interest in this family inevitably fades along with their cash. They are truly dreadful parents
 
We all know where all the broken iPads and iPhones go......

She wants to raise their kids to aim for greater consumerism each year rather than fulfilling personal goals and achievements. What a sad life.

Things do not equal happiness, Sue. I was going to use the ≠ symbol but I don't want to cause too much confusion. Oh I forgot, you've definitely blocked a public website. 🙄

Imagine that being your life though? Constantly chasing the next expensive item and never being truly happy with your life.

When the money runs out and they are faced with reality in the future they will all end up extremely bratty with various mental health. Makes me laugh how the oldest girl is expected to play mum until they leave then we don’t hear from them then the next oldest girl takes over.

Them not having manners is solely down to sue and noel as parents, they're a product of how they've been brought up🤷‍♀️ With the amount of neglect they put the kids through I think manners, though important, aren't a big issue when you look at it

Controversial opinion but I don't feel like the kids have anything to be grateful for having those two as parents. Yes they seem to be provided for in a material sense but there's no actual nurturing towards them, not to mention their parents exploit them daily. That lifestyle is funded by the kids essentially as there the ones that bring the views in because it peaks interest on how a large family copes. Normally I'd agree that kids should be polite and say thankyou for things but honestly in this scenario the parents in question don't deserve any thanks whatsoever.

Not sure I've explained the point of view very well but basically imagine having a camera shoved in your face 24/7, being given small portions, not clothed properly (as in incorrect sizing, looking at you susan), not having your basic emotional needs met, being made to go to school jet lagged for an unnecessary holiday, being rail roaded into babysitting your younger siblings constantly, not being given your own space, I could go on the list is endless. But it's okay because we've spent x amount of £'s this year with some branded/designer gifts, I don't know what sane person would show any gratefulness for that :unsure:

You're right.

Wheres the "life" experiences? The building something out of Lego or making a Den, the arranging to be at a club on a specific day of the holidays so all you and your mates are together, wheres the routine, the laughter, the silliness or randomness of childhood, the "in" jokes, the memories, and I don't mean of "we went to disney world/land" I mean of "we walked to grandmas and grandma snuck me an extra biscuit when mum left the room" or the "we went in the Forest but had to be quiet not to wake the trolls" type thing, the things my daughters physio and speech therapist say actually improve speech and memory? Wheres the growing so quick your mum can't keep up or the scraping your knees as you were walking on the wall etc.

Agreed, we got off the bus the other day and my daughter said thanks unprompted.

The only memories those kids have will be the same ones, Disney on repeat. They won't have different memories, it will all merge into one. They will probably have happier memories from when they went on that Haven holiday last year than they will of all the endless Disney trip. Its really quite sad, those kids are deprived. Deprived of all the small things that go to build a rounded, balanced child. Deprived of one on one attention from their parents. Deprived of everything except expensive toys and Disney trips, and shopping trips and all because they have to do what their mother wants. Look at the older boys, none of them have a career or have even left home, spending all their time staring at monitors in their shared bedrooms.

It's sad isn't it? My daughter went to holiday club today, and she came out saying "I asked to go today because my Brownies friends all said they were going to be here today and they were, so we played with the Lego and made a whole fairground but used paper for the trampoline! And it was so fun and just like Brownies but with other children and different people and I loved it" like Sue will never have the joy of picking up her child and hearing how they had a secret plan and it went exactly how they wanted.

Sue really does put so much on those older girls, doesn’t she? So many times in the present vlog you hear the littles asking for Katie/Aimee/Ellie to show them things or ask for help. They didn’t even open their presents right away as presumably they knew they wouldn’t have any peace. Notice the older boys didn’t. 😒

They clearly know they’ll get more attention from their siblings than their own parents, and on Christmas Day of all days. And then it’s Ellie (and Noel) thinking to pull out the big bags while Sue sits in her grinch pyjamas amongst all the paper like an overgrown toddler.

Those three didn’t even seem to recognise what the Ugg headphones were, so I assume they didn’t ask for them and that was Sue just buying “designer” things. Ellie seemed more pleased with the hot water bottle!

I’m really not surprised they’ve all ended up as young parents with no proper careers so far, as they’re just not given a chance, are they? 😞

She took her parenting path guidance in part from the Duggar playbook.
 
When you tell kids your going to disneyland you expect excitement, joy and jumping around the room those kids shrugged and ran out of the room tillie didn't even move.
The fact that it's titled surprising the kids with Disney when they go so often is laughable
Sorry sue it's run it's course they aren't bothered anymore.


Sounded like one long trip driving what 4 hours or so staying in a service station classy
Driving another 2 1/2 hours to the tunnel trying to be on time or risking missing their slot and then a further few hours drive to Disney all to satisfy Sue's holiday obsession.
The kids must have been going out of their minds

Question is how were they all legally strapped in minibus and motorhome no car seats to be seen?

The motorhome will have seatbelts at the table ... I'm guessing there will be 4 as it's a 6 berth motorhome.
At night it will be double figures sleeping in it.

To be honest I don’t blame the kids for not being thankful. Imagine being excited for Christmas and new things and you open it and it’s exactly the same as you got last year and for your birthday because your parents have no idea who you are and what you might like and you know that within days one of your thousand sibling will have probably broken up the gift, and the whole time you’ve got a camera shoved in your face weather you like it or not. Not sure I’d be very grateful either
