I’m Alicia, but it drove me nuts watching clean up a room that most likely took you most of you4 morning to do. The ch8ld should be responsible, and old enough to clean the room him/her self. They mess it up, then clean it. You should only be responsible for the ones under 10 yrs old. That room was a disgrace. That child should be picking up, and cleaning up after itself. Your not their slave!

Unpopular opinion below. So she can go thru their stuff and break/take any sense of privacy or trust they have, it seems. This is a good way to make sure your kids start hiding things and lying. Trust me. I grew up with this and I know many other who have too. Most as adults in our 40s/50s still dont tell our parents much about our lives because there's never been that level of trust or comfort. Treat your kids like they are their own person and they have rights and you trust and respect them. Please. Smh. These kids are in such trouble. Their adulthood is going to be a shock when real life hits them and they are unprepared to actually be a productive member of society. Im not debating my OPINIONS. Im not trying argue. I know many with these kind of parents and know what I saw and still see from those situations. If you want, come back in 10 years when some of them are adulting and we can debate then. Im allowed to think what I want and no one will change my mind. I loved DDs vid at first until I picked up the red flags and noticed similarities.

Sneezing all over, coughing, not washing hands and touching everything. 2. Some of those rooms have been a mess for a hot minute. Waiting a day or two, even 3 more days, until the kid feels better def isnt hurting anything. Seriously. And if they are sick. She needs to be doing deeper cleans of those sick kids beds/rooms. They should get all clean sheets, things should be wiped down with something that kills germs and all, i wont even be picky about what she should clean with, cleaners choice as long as it kills the germs too.

She does the laundry since they have a tank and have been working to have it not go to there tank anymore since 12 kids alone = so much more water soap and bathroom stuff, that means cleaning out that tank happens more often and can be hella expensive each time, try to open up your view to different types of parenting and don’t shame families for the way they function unless it’s a genuine concern to the safety and well-being to the parents and or children.

Lovey, it's ok to let your older kids clean their own room. They will thank you for teaching them to be clean and how to keep their own homes clean! If you think they will dislike you, don't worry, they love you and depending on how you approach the topic, it could be a way of showing your love to them

I just want to know why you cannot do laundry at home? I am so confused as to why you are not hooked up to the main septic in town? What does that mean for showers for everyone? Not judging just asking

She has said before that they take staggered, short showers throughout the day to not overload their current septic system. Unfortunately, many localities are still behind on work, so the hookup is taking longer on the city's end.

I don't know why you don't buy a commercial washer & dryer for your home & wash every day...so much easier than what you are doing.....also the teenagers should clean their own room, make their own bed & put their own dirty clothes in a basket not you Alicia, you have enough to do....just saying.

Their septic system is broken and cannot handle the laundry. They are waiting on the city to finish hooking them up to the city water system.

@@hayahilton ??? She has said many times that they need to plan quick showers throughout the day to avoid using too much water. And I used to live at a house with a broken septic system - does that count as research??? She is doing exactly what we did until we were able to get on city water.
