[@Naptural85]

“It’s revealing that my child isn’t willing to love me unconditionally…” no you psycho, that’s YOUR JOB as their parent! Wow. That’s actually insane. She’s taking random parenting principles like loving your child unconditionally and distorting them to fit HER warped desires… sick. It’s not your CHILD’s job to love you! It’s the PARENTS job to love and protect the child. I truly hope ppl were just hate-watching their show, I cannot imagine anyone ACTUALLY thinking this is good advice… Did she just say that “the two YOUNGEST are showing long patterns of selfishness”!?!?!? YES! CORRECT. That is what children do! It’s a survival instinct that we ALL HAVE as children!! I can’t.

This woman was a literal danger to her own kids. And she was making a lot of money for acting this way, as a model parent to millions of other people! I do not understand.

[@TheNPC_]

Let me tell you as someone who had to live with abusive parents. They will lie to themselves and warp reality to fit their world view so that they can see themselves as a good person. At the end of it all they will have the GALL to tell you that they were good parents. They are so delusional that they will either not see any of the bad actions or they will just delude themselves into thinking that those bad actions were "for your own good." This story is making me beyond angry because I just know that at the end of this all, if her kids ever get somewhere, become famous or become successful, she will sit there and have the audacity to say "I made them. I made them who they are today." It is sickening. Disgusting. Loathsome behaviour where they will try to take credit for all your success and take none for your failures. I sincerely hope the best for the kids, because I know just how horrible it is to survive this kinda stuff.

[@Eskii_NZL]

The most disgusting thing about this whole case is the fact that the family had 13 welfare checks done on them and nothing was done until one of the kids finally did somthing… the kids were left home alone while the mother was out of state and they still done nothing. It’s disgusting how little they cared

[@JezebelNeverDied]

[@savian_is_spooked]

@@JezebelNeverDied I think it's just CPS in general. I grew up poor af and my family was heavily abusive, two of my schools called CPS and they did nothing, didn't even talk to us. Mind you, we have literal deformities due to my parents neglecting us. There are so many cases where kids are on the verge of death and they won't do anything. The whole system is screwed. Now I do agree that it would probably be worse considering they were a wealthy morman family in a heavily devout morman state. My family also grew up as strict morman and they are legit awful. Morman faith (imo and experience) is a cult, just a largely accepted one.

I'm more bothered at how old is that kid that he already thought of escaping his own house. I hope the family who would take care of the kid do it proper this time. I am pro-spartan discipline (and I know a lot of people isn't). I am okay with disciplining a kid physically, aka hitting him BUT that's the last thing you must do and there are strict reasons for it. First and foremost, do not hit the kid in vital points. Spank them in the butt for all I care but use your hand and not wood or whatever. And you only do that if #1, they are at that point that they don't listen to you not once but like after 10 times or so. Sometimes, fear is required to discipline a kid if the peaceful kind does not work BUT it's the last thing you do because if you do hit your kid often, eventually, they won't be afraid anymore and what you gonna do then? Threaten them with a gun?

[@badcoyote3373]

For some reason, every time I hear about this incident, I always think about the Turpin family-a family that had 14 children living in Perris, California, who were also abused and malnourished. Both parents in this case were arrested. The story of how one child escaped is very similar to the one where Franke’s child escaped. Granted, the Turpins weren’t family bloggers; however, it pisses me off that in these cases there are parents who would actually treat their children like this

[@kittynoir2756]

Whenever I hear Ruby say "This is gonna sound bad," or "I'm afraid to share this with you guys," I just know it's something that is completely unacceptable. If your so worried about what people think of you and what your doing to your children then don't do those things in general! Simple as that. Those poor children. I don't even know how Ruby has so many followers on her social medias, listening to her "parenting advice". I am not a parent but I know what Ruby was doing is child abuse. I'm glad she's is jail and I hope so stays there.

As a father, I literally can't even imagine doing this to your kids...... Absolutely disgusting. Lock her up. I'm glad her kids are alive; but it's sad they'll have this to live with the rest of their childhoods to deal with emotionally, and without a mother. "in this home you don't get personal space. It's my space." YOUR JOB AS A PARENT IS TO LITERALLY TEACH YOUR CHILD THESE THINGS.... Teach them boundaries; even from YOU, and GIVE THEM A PLACE THEY FEEL SAFE... IE THEIR ROOM. My kids know they can go in their room when they're upset, feel angry, sad or whatever.... Tell them they can be alone to think about it, or if they want company to invite you in. The only thing I do is make sure they know to keep it clean... Good god, I can't wrap my head around any of this. My kids eat when they want to, and before me.... If they don't do their chores that's their problem and they don't get Vbucks or something.... Holding FOOD against your child is brain worms behavior... OK I HAVE TO EDIT AGAIN. TAKING AWAY CHRISTMAS. Holy hell she is the walking epitome of how NOT to parent. Just punishing them instead of teaching them at every corner.... Sorry, I'm so mad, this baffles me so much. BRAIN WORMS.

[@briansalce2808]

totally support this comment. having gone through a parent that was similar in nature i can tell you its a complete lack of personality, creativity, and the teaching ability of emotions and how to use your words and situations so they just know how to punish and think its the end all be all to parenting. i'm very happy the authorities got involved here to give these kids a chance at living a normal life and learn how to come into their own and be themselves. a real chance to figure out who they are and what it is they want in life.

She ticks so many boxes for being a psychopath (extreme lack of empathy, extreme lack of remorse to the point that she thinks she has done nothing wrong and won't be punished, extreme narcissism, extreme boldness, superficial charm, extremely manipulative behaviour...) that I personally would be surprised if she wasn't a psychopath.

[@dragonsheen3049]

the way she even acknowledges that her YOUNG children have become numb to her discipline makes my blood boil. I know that numbness. You become completely apathetic to any consequences because it's the only way to protect yourself from how constant it is. That apathy seeps into every other part of your life. Nothing matters. You can feel this pit of rage bubbling somewhere inside you, but there's no safe way to get it out. So you push it down further and further just so you can get through the day to day. That her elementary-aged kids are already experiencing that... it's such a tragedy. Seeing her smug face above a headline saying she's getting charged made my week.

No child wants their mother to share their asinine "wrongdoings" and subsequent punishment to the world, hell I got pissed off whenever my parent would talk about some of the stuff I did to their friends. Like that shit is private don't go telling kathy how exhausted you are because you perpetually treat your child like a child instead of trying to form them into an adult. Also, just get a fucking job, I understand that you prefer to sit on your ass all day hyper focused on your boring gross kids; Instead of working a real job from home, or hiring a babysitter so you can be an actual productive member of society, you just get to talk about yourself all day. If you have to make videos keep your kids out of them, but then that would actually require being entertaining or doing something interesting.

It really shook me when she said that the two younger kids were “numb.” I grew up in a very similarly abusive household, and that exact terminology was what my dad used to say. “Well you’re too numb to this now so now I have to do more.” I did feel numb, and I eventually stopped caring about anything because no matter what I did it was met with extreme negative stimulus, so the only coping I had was to just turn off my emotions at the nonstop loss, humiliation, physical and verbal abuse, and restrictions. I feel so much for these kids. At least they have each other.

It's like hypothermia. From what I understand, the brain sends signals to warm up the body and to get you to seek warmth from the environment. If the cold just gets worse the brain eventually stops bothering and dedicates to just keeping you alive by itself for as long as it can, cause it concluded it can't trust the environment to help with that anymore.

He then followed it by saying, "You could put a bullet point blank right between my eyes and not even flinch." and I replied, "Probably." That still astonishes me today that I could even reply so coldly like that. Thankfully the moment I became an adult I got the heck away from everyone and everything that was a problem in my life.

This whole thing reminds me of The Turpin Family situation where the parents controlled all of their children, including adult-aged ones. They would chain their children to their beds, not let them eat, bathe, or go outside. Nothing changed until Jordan Turpin, one of the daughters managed to escape and call 911. The only difference with the Turpin family is that the parents didn't flaunt their crimes publicly.

I temporarily lived with my aunt when my parents were going through a rocky divorce. She was very strict, but not abusive. Seeing this it could've been a lot worse

"Do you see how loving that is?" is one of the most chilling things I've ever heard from a parent.

Life in prison without parole for not just for Ruby but for Kevin, too! Ruby is rightfully under fire and in a cell for her heinous behavior but Kevin was right there with her mistreating those kids. He was smart enough to stay mostly off camera but when he was on camera, he did NOTHING to stop her. He actually supported her and defended their "parenting style" on more than one occasion. He was a ride or die for the Cult that Jodi and Ruby have been pushing and he was an absolute menace of a professor at BYU, which is what led to him being fired. He and his scumbag lawyer are doing everything they can to try and rewrite history and that cannot happen. He cannot avoid jailtime. He cannot be allowed to have custody of the kids because the mistreatment will definitely continue and likely worsen. I don't know what's going on with the other adults in the situation but I don't trust them. The only people I trust to keep the kids safe are Shari and Chad, the kids who have escaped.

Exactly! Why did he never go to the authorities when his kids were missing for weeks at a time? He's just as evil as she is.

What’s sad is, Rubys sisters knew and did absolutely nothing, so agree, I don’t trust any of them, hopefully, none of them get them, and they go to an actual good loving home.

I have been waiting for Atozy's take on this. So glad justice is being served.

I feel like I was a lot less angry before the internet came along and I started hearing about shit like this everyday, I hope she gets the maximum sentence.
