Honestly, I don't know how to feel about this episode. Fergus firstly is not responsible for her having four children that was her choice and lastly he certainly is not responsible for her having a 1000pound paying job. It is commendable how she takes care of her child and other expenses she has but she is being too aggressive with comparison her and Fergus's lifestyle. It is NOT his fault that he was born into wealth and can afford the finer things in life even if it is his dad providing the money for it. He shouldn't be made to feel guilty and ashamed for it, yes, he can be taught to be more appreciative for the life he has but definitely should not be made to feel ashamed for it.

[@keviousshockley483]

That was the whole purpose of this show not for him to take care of them more just get a taste of the other side your just making it seem like they putting him on this show just to support her like they chose to participate in this show and follow by guide lines that simple

Everyone that over buys stuff, wastes stuff, imports ton of clothing from countries that don’t treat workers properly and such should be ashamed. It’s not the money the issue, for that he shouldn’t be ashamed for sure. Wasting money and his health on booze? Buying tons of goods and ditching them 2 months later because they are not currant enough, not « in », that’s definitely shameful

Life is not about the money, because when you die it means nothing, how you are as a person, and what you do in this life,money or not, that’s how you are judged..if you have money, do kindful acts, pay it forward, if you don’t have money, small things can make a huge difference on someone day, a smile cost nothing, lending an ear cost nothing.. everyone has a purpose, but regardless of money live life to be the best version of yourself.

The first man says ‘what is my brother, you’d give me house and land what’s with the chicken?’ The man responds quietly ‘I have two chickens’ Go to some countries of equality of income- if you love it - move.

I've watched a few of these now and I'm wondering why the rich kids are taken to a corner shop to do the weekly shop. Everyone knows they are more expensive and have a more limited range than budget supermarkets; it doesn't reflect reality IMHO.

[@ericadionisi2213]

My guess is that it's easier to film there, fewer customers who may need to sign releases to be in the background of a tv show

[@emmanarotzky6565]

The mum in this episode doesn’t have a license so she probably has to go to whatever is in walking distance instead of whatever is cheapest.

The lady was so aggressive its not his fault

[@pearlkelly6337]

Yeah I agree, like when people say stuff like 'that £1000 you spent on this and that, I could use that to pay for food for x amount of months' like some people like to make others feel bad by having stuff, like the rolex she said its worth 6 months of her working, not really his fault his dad got him a rolex for a birthday present lol

[@down-to-earth-mystery-school]

her role is to teach him about her life, she wasn't aggressive at all, simply stating the facts, giving him comparisons so he understands

Really nice to see, very sweet on both sides...

[@DawnNighti]

The lady wasn't the best candidate for this experience, you can't make someone feel bad over a life they found themselves into, Fergus didn't pick to be born in an affluent family,she should stop instilling guilt, instead let him learn the ways of life on a different perspective, I honestly didn't like her tone and treatment towards Fergus ... Fergus was so humble,keep up that spirit young man

[@celestialcircledance]

It could be argued that having five kids wasn't the smartest idea on a limited budget and for all herself righteousness, was a choice . However it sounds like she's doing a good job with what she has . Fergus seemed very humble and charming and it's totally relevant that he would be hungry on there limited rations . Wealth gap aside , strapping young men have significantly higher caloric needs then women and children .

[@lonagwegwe]

💯 agree

[@TransforminginSakartvelo]

Except that it takes 2 to have children - I haven't watched the whole video yet so don't know if she was in a more stable situation when she chose to have kids (she said 4 kids, not 5), but lots of stable households break up for various valid reasons and then the parents are plunged into the hardships of single parenthood, from 2 incomes to 1. But I agree she was very judging and self-righteous, pressing Fergus to feel ashamed when he clearly already felt that way so he didn't need her making him feel worse (plus criticizing the way he talks, "supper" instead of "dinner").

[@Dreadmill8910]

Very nice episode! Heartwarming! All you lot are so lovely!

[@sharonmiller8500]

This woman is judging the young man yet she is banging on about him judging her. She is rude, aggressive and playing the victim. This experience is to open the eyes of everyone not to blame others for individual lifestyle.

So this may be an unpopular opinion. So just so yall know, I’m in the US and far from privileged. Living paycheck to paycheck check to paycheck. With that out of the way, I’m a bit annoyed by all these episodes. I don’t understand why they pass so much judgement…. If they have the money, why not spend it?? Of course it is good and absolutely needed for these rich kids to learn basic living skills. But at the end of the day these family’s have no right being upset or feeling some type of way for the guests having the money to spend💁🏼‍♀️ they would be doing the same. Anyone would. At the end of the day we ALL judge and stereotype. We can thank the tv and social media for that. (And if you say you don’t, you’re LYING. we all do it. It can be negative or positive but we all think things about other people.) judgment is just like opinions. We all have them. It doesn’t make it fact, but we all have them.

[@laxel01]

Amen!!! 🙌🏼🙌🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼 YES!! They're hating on the successfulness of the families that raised these kids, when in actuality the ones who end up being more humble is usually the rich kids off the bat, not the other way around

[@emmanarotzky6565]

If you have that kind of money you should spend a lot of it on helping others meet their basic needs, not a lot of frivolous stuff for yourself. Generally people who have been poor are more cognizant of their responsibility to help people who are less well off because they’ve been there.

[@kaysimatherly5715]

@@emmanarotzky6565 they don’t have to do that though. They could have worked hard for that money and have every right to buy nice things for themselves. That doesn’t make them bad in my book. And just because they do buy nice things for themselves does not mean they don’t help others. People (like myself) who aren’t fortunate like others shouldn’t expect a hand out. I was raised poor and still am. I’d never expect anyone to hustle hand out money to me. I expect them to buy the finer things in life. And I ain’t mad about it I’m over here praising them and happy for them. As you should to💁🏼‍♀️

What I find in most of poor people is that to start with I'm that they are undereducated so their perspective are completely different to others. They also live in a circle that people think , act and live like them, so there not much they can achieve mentally, Intellectually, etc. So even though I think she could sound rude or act rude she doesn't know any better and she will pass down the same s*** to her kids that may or may not get better in life later on, even though they become a famous footballer on celebrity.
