Here's my take on it: When I watch your videos (along with other family vloggers at times), I am SO VERY IMPRESSED with the patience you have with your precious baby. The fact that you ALLOW her to interrupt with kindness shows the very essence of good parenting. I hope they don't wish for you to just usher her out of the frame so you can continue to film without interruption. Seeing her joy in those interruptions which are just being a kid to her such as: "I'm eating a pancake, a berry, a biscuit, etc." are the MOST SPECIAL part of it to me and a whole lot of other people. Have we become so impatient, that we can't give a child 2 seconds to be mothered and included. I mean her smile alone makes my day. The way your family helps with her and works together to allow us into your lives is just a blessing in itself. I cannot respond to the pinned comment because as you have said, if you can't say anything kind, stay silent so I will on that. Your reply was enough for me. I don't comment often but I'm always here watching and enjoying the love and passion for life your family represents. Have a great weekend ya'll. I think I can speak for 27.6K people when I say.......OZARK FAMILY HOMESTEAD ROCKS!!!!!!!

I just realized my comment wasn’t kind so removed it. Ugh, our tongues truly possess the power to both create and destroy. Sorry for all this negative energy is flowing. Feeling kind of like a ruffled Mother hen at the moment but know the best weapon to be used is prayer ❤ much love to all.

Dear Janice and Shawn, You should not even have to justify yourself as to how you'r raising your children. They're healthy, respectful, hardworking and kind, and that's thanks to you. My parents (I'm one of four kids) raised us with harsh words, beatings, insults and very little food. Affection was scarce. Thank god for parents like you! I learned that kindness works wonders with everyone, EVERYONE! You keep doing what you're doing guys. And to you little Rebekah: you are allowed to be the precious, enthusiastic . adorable sweet three year old that you are. 💙

[@KerriBrennan-lx9hv]

Janice - as a mom of four and a pediatric RN with a child development degree I am shocked by the negative comment about you 3 year old. She is a delightful and well adjusted 3 year old! All of your kids are great. Have a blessed day.

[@deeengstrom2055]

As a teen I remember a child in the grocery store acting up. The mother was so bothered by a lady frowning at her. My mother told the young mother, "Everything is ok. Most of us have been at your stage of life and we know what you're going through right now. Those that haven't been there will never understand. So just relax, hold your head high and march on." The lady actually gave my mother a hug. As a teen it didn't mean a thing to me, but when I got to the stage in life, that the mother was in that day, I remembered my mothers' words. I went through that store with my head high and my heart beating like a drum. Rebekka is at her 3-year-old stage of life and an absolutely adorable little thing and as normal as can be. I love her and your whole family......and no buts.........

[@susannichols2497]

I have been watching your videos for quite awhile now. I am an “older woman”, 66, and would be proud to call any one of your children my grandchild. All of them , without exception are thoughtful, kind and helpful. I always leave your videos feeling happy that we have some children in this world like yours. They restore my faith in the future. Your sweet Rebecca is adorable and sweet so don’t listen to those ignorant people who like to make evil comments just to see themselves in print. I’m sorry you have to deal with this. Please let your children know what I have said about them and tell them to continue on in their lives being the wonderful, smart and delightful people I know they are growing up to be. Much love to you and your family.

[@inkystroul1823]

Here, here!!! I, too, would be proud to be an adopted grandma to any & all of them!!!

She may be little but she is an integral member of the family! I have been a pediatric nurse for 40 years and I love her joy for life and cannot imagine anyone thinking she is a brat! She is smart, articulate and a pleasure to watch grow up! Janice and Shawn you’re great parents and are raising an amazing family!

[@franchristman9402]

Your adorable, Rebecca reminds me of my twin two and a half year old granddaughters in every way! It is very evident that your children are so kind, loving, helpful and happy! They are a reflection of you and Sean. Rebecca is a normal three year old and I’m very impressed with the respect you show her by never brushing her off when she wants and needs your attention. In fact, all your children show each other so much respect. Keep being you and simply block the unthoughtful, unkind comments. I truly admire you.❤

[@susangrote3633]

I watch you because I have a 4 year old granddaughter and I learn so much from you as I watch your interactions with Rebecca. You are respectful and kind to your daughter. She will learn to treat others that same way. Your expectations of her behavior match her abilities. This teaches her confidence. You smile and encourage her in positive ways. She will learn to love life and have close warm relationships. You know exactly what you are doing. Discipline is not black and white. It’s given in an age appropriate manner. Rebecca is an extremely lucky girl to have you as her mom. Rebecca is pure joy ❤ I’m certainly glad you can see that about your daughter, and am sorry that the commenter could not.

[@susieswaney9950]

Well said! Preach it Janice! You and your family are all so very sweet and encouraging to those that watch your channel. I can’t believe anyone can say that about sweet Rebekah. Please know for many you are a blessing. Love all of your family!

​@@ozarkfamilyhomesteadI commented on anger to the mean rude commenter before even watching the video.cause I went straight to comments when you said you didn't want to do this video cause you were mad. Watching the video has helped me calm down a bit also, but just a little lol. Janice you did a fantastic job at going ahead and filming before addressing the mean comment! You said some same things I did in response to the commenter. Like your ma didn't teach you that if you don't have anything good to say don't say anything at all!" And that Rebecca is just acting her age, but they are acting childish and mean and petty but they are an adult. I hope you can read my comment it's a reply to the pinned commentor! We sooo LOVE you and your family!! You're the BEST! God bless you abundantly!! You responded with such restraint and Christlikeness you did great So glad to hear you say she would be blocked if it continues. You were an example to me cause I was so mad I was spittin nails! I just really get so upset when people think they have to be rude and mean to good people online! ❤❤❤

[@cindywright4989]

Ok I am the eldest of 11 children and one of the things that I enjoy most about your family is the memories of the love and joy that we shared. Your youngest in my opinion acts like a sweet, joyful, inquisitive, bright, and loved youngest child. You have done a wonderful job raising your children they are very well mannered and each one has their own special talents you have encouraged, they are truly delightful. I do enjoy your youngest the way she marches around with her brothers and sisters making herself part of whatever is going on. I also remember seeing her gently taken on a little walk by her father when she gets a little silly and being told ever so gently to wait just a minute by her mother. This is discipline at its best. Whoever the adult is that has resulted to name callling is just plain sick. God bless your family and thank you for bringing joy to to me every time I watch.

There is so much evil in the world right now I’m sorry it’s finding its way in your comments. Me and my children gather around to watch your videos.

Dear Janice, I'm so sorry about the very unkind, untrue & unnecessary comment about your precious daughter. She is a typical 3 year old & is a joy. I literally smile at the end of every video with her sweet "Bye!". 🥰 I was a preschool teacher for about 25 years & just love those ages. I don't understand why some people feel so free to leave hurtful comments on KZbin. I had an assistant teacher who would "jokingly" tell the infants that they were spoiled.😯 I told her (nicely) that I didn't want to hear that. I could imagine being a parent & hearing that said to my child. 😢 On a happier note...I'm so happy that you all got to splurge on some special treats for your family. What fun! Hope you all had fun at your outing as well❣️

Oh sweet girl some people don't do kindness they're miserable and take it out on others and I'm so sorry you have a beautiful little family and I love everything you do please don't let it bother you I think sometimes this world is going to hell because of those negative people

[@mariashelton2950]

How you raise your family is up to you and Shawn. Please don’t let the negative unhappy comments hurt you. You have much more kind comments , so that says a lot. God bless you and your family.

[@ozarkfamilyhomestead]

Yes, you're absolutely right that there are way more kind comments than negative ones, Maria! I keep telling myself that and hopefully I'll get more immune to the mean ones as time goes on. 💕

[@fortheloveofgod7739]

@@ozarkfamilyhomestead No Janice you shouldn't get immune to it, it's not right. No one has the right to talk about your child like that. If it was me I'd be very upset. If anyone said that about my granddaughter i'd come out swinging and pray about it later.

[@trishakrenek4171]

Janice, ALL of your children are so sweet and well disciplined. You and your husband have done a fantastic job of raising them. Your baby girl is so precious! I love to see her beautiful smile and hear her talk! In fact she needs to be in every single video! You’ve done an excellent job Mom and don’t let anyone tell you different!! Continue on! 👏👏🫶🏼

[@christinabennett6696]

Don't let those bad comments bother you. Rebecca is adorable! She is not a brat! You have a sweet family. God bless all of you. Enjoy your weekend. ❤️

[@debrap9829]

PS Janice, I also want to say that I come here because I enjoy watching you and your children work together as a family. It gives me joy and to quote you "it makes me happy"

[@galedobschuetz4007]

Gale , Dr. PHIL would say when a sentence is spoken or written and includes " but" it means what was said didn't matter.

[@aidenalamo6262]

How you and Shawn choose to parent is your choice and the tone speaks volumes. Kindness counts and you share that everyday Janice. Some people as you know are petty and miserable and that is just the world we live in. She or He might be just trying to spoil your day by trying to tell you how to parent your children.

[@ozarkfamilyhomestead]

Thank you, Aiden! I was having a day where I had just had it with the negativity. I really needed to vent and get everything off my chest so I could move on with the fun activities that we had planned. ❤

[@carolwhite4669]

Some people have to put other people down to feel superior they are very unhappy and pick on others pay them no mind put them on ignore our children are the heart and souls of our family and no one in their right mind would go along with the name calling or telling us they need more discipline they are not the parent , it will be ok Janice because you will get in front of it, have a wonderful day and most important is to enjoy your wonderful family who bring you and Shawn much joy❤

[@GodISSovereign17]

Some people! Janice, you’re a wonderful mother, and I’m always in awe of how gentle you are(something I’m always striving to be more of). 2 of my girls are autistic(diagnosed vaccine injured), and every time I see Rebekah I think about how smart and observant she is. I have a 3 yr old too, and we’re all amazed at how much her and Rebekah are alike(they even look similar). You’re doing a beautiful job, and my family LOVES watching you. Don’t let hateful people steal your Joy, we’re not wrestling with flesh and blood, it’s just a trial of your patience! It’s God we live to please, not the world! And I’d love to have about 10 Sarahs!! All your children show you’re doing a great job, in personality and work ethic! You’re an Inspiration!! Blessings

I raised an ADHD son in the 1980’s. I can not tell you how many people blamed me for being a bad parent while we did tutors, therapies, home training etc all while getting no sleep as he did not sleep. Eventually we found a medicine that helped him sleep and focus in school but his childhood was a long haul with little understanding or help from other parents. I can tell you that a “brat”is a child who knows better but is spoiled by using bad behavior to get what they want. That would never happen in my house or in yours. You are a A plus parent and so is Shawn. Consider yourself a role model for good parents. Aldo I am giving you a HUG!! 😉❤️🙏

😢i have an autistic child and got the same

[@DebBeeman-ir9eu]

You go Momma! You know she’s adorable and she’s gonna grow up to respect and honor other people like your other children do. You can tell the other children all have manners and respect just by seeing them on video. You and Shawn have done an excellent job with the children! Love ya’ll!

[@kathycouture3590]

Don't listen to the negative people. Your children are so well behaved and you are doing an amazing job with them! Its rare to see a family that is as close as yours and refreshing to see you all working together every day. You can be proud of how you are raising your children!

[@klawing7129]

Good job, Momma. Well said and well conveyed. It's sad that people are hateful and hurtful but don't let that stop you. Your kids are amazing and you are amazing. Don't let anyone make you feel different. Keep doing what you're doing because for me and so many others- it's a beautiful thing.

[@susannichols3916]

I've never commented before, but this post you received offends me, too! Your family is exemplary - I'm sure you've inspired thousands with your common sense and Christian values, AND ESPECIALLY by the example of success you've broadcast to us all. Your family is an example to all of how children ought to be raised, how children ought to respond to instruction and live their lives as obedient, kind little people with high standards for themselves academically, spiritually, socially. Their accomplishments are impressive! If you sometimes "inspire" criticism, maybe it's out of jealousy because most of America doesn't enjoy the success you're achieving in your family life and in each of your sweet children. I hope you're able to forgive and forget this awful attack and will continue to inspire us with your channel. May God continue to bless your sweet family!
