Having your child purposely miss school for a brand deal you signed them up for IS PURE SELFISHNESS! They have their priorities all messed up. They pulled her out of school largely for themselves!

[@anahielpinchep]

who cares 😭 why prioritize a public school system when you can prioritize other things while still doing great in school, which penelope is doing.

[@anahielpinchep]

@@caleaBaby667 who cares 😭 it’s their life and she was doing great in school the only problem was the attendance rate, which as luis stated they only cared bc they get payed per each attendant

[@averysalazar3786]

Not really, what would be more beneficial? If she wasn’t forced and Penelope wanted to, that shouldn’t be an issue.

[@anetkak1984]

Debt from going to college ??!! You guys wanna pull her out of school so she can do brand deals. That’s work !! That’s child labor !!!Are you saying she is not getting paid ? You should put aside money that she earns !!!!!

[@randimellies]

They felt like prisoners because they had to wake up at 6am?! LOL WHAT - like every single other parent who goes to work and takes their kid to school?!

[@aikoshelen14]

I was shook 😂

[@kiaras3525]

As a teacher, you can tell when a parent is keeping their kid out of school for selfish and wrong reason. You can also tell when a parent is keeping a kid home to do a mental health or fun day. This was them wanting their count days to be full.

[@fbiagentfrank]

Mom has a brand deal isn't a good excuse to miss school and I think you know that. When you care about your child's education, you don't bring them in tardy all the time. It isn't good for the child and it disrupts class.

[@kelliesharpe1067]

sweet Jesus.. i feel like i'm going crazy lol. did she really just say she doesn't want people to know them? to see inside their house? and that she's taking her kid out of school because she can't get out of bed in time to take her? what in the name of God is happening here? i'm...completely....floored.

[@kymsue2604]

Right!! I’m shocked at the comments debating home school vs public. Did they watch any of this video. These idiots are so clueless. “Ya I’m not going to share with the school what we do. They don’t need to know.” You share and exploit your kids for a living online for the entire world to see. Speechless

[@Massysjames.]

If Penelope wants to go to college, please support that. Don’t encourage her not to go to college and do “social media”… If you’re worried about her struggling and getting into debt when going to college, I don’t think you’ll have to worry about that. You and Luis are blessed and doing well, I’m sure you wouldn’t allow P to get into debt. Love the podcast btw! A lot of valid points.

[@diana1d1161]

If P has been doing social media for long I’d imagine they have some sort of saving account for her. That should be plenty to cover college and if not, there’s always scholarships to cover the rest. She doesn’t need to go to a super expensive school to get a degree and give herself more options in life.

[@diana1d1161]

29:26 is a crazy thing to say 😮 I get that college isn’t for everyone but actively discouraging Penelope from going to college and instead pursue social media is crazy

[@londralazo]

[@miss00caro]

Agree with your comment!

[@_destineeeeee]

@@londralazoI haven’t gotten that far yet but I mean, it’s common for a child to want to follow in their parent’s foot steps but you shouldn’t discourage other opportunities.

@@IRRAA clearly you didn’t watch the video. Her daughter literally told her she wants to go to college and she said “why? Why not do social media?” 🙄

[@nilbet9823]

letting your child skip school for brand deals is absurd. i hope bramty at least has a fund to give her children when they turn 18 of all the money theyve generated

[@jotamj6752]

It seems like you were saying Penelope was holding you back in life. You should’ve known when having kids your life will never be the same.

[@Lana-gp4pj]

Right!? Her schooling was intervening their spontaneous vacations. I get its tricky with work bc I’ve dealt with that. But with family vacations we plan it out to work with our schedule.

[@sophlizabeth]

I agree with a lot of what you’re saying but I also think you should take into consideration that it didn’t work for YOU because of your lifestyle and your career. If you guys had 9-5 with kids like most of the world you might not feel the same way.

[@vloggingwithevey]

[@lupitaochoa7232]

Agreed!

[@janyshak]

She’s 6 and people always compliment her vocabulary and critical thinking skills. And that’s definitely from out home. I felt like she was being held back in school and now that she went back im terrified. Is possible to homeschool while holding a “regular” lifestyle as long as you have extended support

[@adrianam.5787]

Our friends work, the parents have different shifts and homeschool. Plus, their kids are in so many activities! It's all how you want to manage and you and your spouse agree.

[@MELANIEmel]

💯

[@PlanwithKaye]

Yall are DISGUISTING!! You don't want to get up in the morning and want your kids to work!! You are the reason for her anxiety and stress from making her LATE!!!

[@miss00caro]

Agree with your critics, but you also have to admit that CPS and tracking tardiness etc keeps certain kids safe from their families. Penelope is lucky to have parents that care about her and also have the ability to provide her with options. Not every kids has this, and public school may be the only avenue to have an opportunity in life.

[@karinamendiola7667]

For me it was the opposite..

[@Rachel-su3ir]

Bramty don't tell Penelope she doesn't have to go to college. Tell her she can do whatever she loves to do as long as its honest money and doesnt go against any of ur ethical and moral values. Encourage college. U don't know if social media will be around in 10+ years! Education is so important.

[@abigailbrown7954]

I'm so sorry but all of their reasons sounded like they are trying to raise a bunch of lazy kids that will turn into lazy adults. What's wrong with waking up early and having a routine. Bramty said P would come home stressed. Life is not easy and as time goes by it is only going to get harder and more stressful. We have to teach our kids to know how to handle stress and tough situations. That's why there are so many young kids taking their own lives because they can't take the stress.

[@paolacardona8732]

What are you talking about??

[@michellepolissky9814]

School teaches children soft skills more than anything. Teamwork, independence, critical thinking, how to be analytical , problem solving, empathy, responsibility, time management , social skills etc. Being surrounded by others 8 hours a day ( beyond family & friends) is crucial to a child's development. Growing up, I also obviously " disliked" going to school but as I entered the workforce and started building my career, this became significantly more apparent. Learning hard math is not for everyone but it opens up doors to career paths that you would not have , if you were to not take it. Obviously the school system is flawed, but it is sooo important to the child's development. It's not easy but that's life. Humans adapt and the only way to grow is to go through uncomfortable periods of time, even as a child. These are the years to shape them and teach them about hard work

[@mirp2583]

Couldn't have said it better 👏🏻

[@Charlotte97_]

True!!!!!! Our children have got to learn something out of the box dear.

[@aloguz]

She can learn just the same independent, critical thinking, problems solving skills & responsibility from home schooling as well.. If anything it could build her confidence. It’s not to say that their gonna keep her home all the time they do travel a lot & they have friends w/ kids so her social skills won’t be lacking. They did say they were going to try it out first to see how it goes. The worst that can happen it doesn’t work out & they can send her to a private school or back to public.. honestly she’s a really smart kid and I don’t think she will be lacking in any areas. It seems like they have taught her very well already. The way she speaks & the way her mind works!

[@michellepolissky9814]

The problem is that the isolation takes the child away from real world scenarios, where there is competition, pressure, and external factors that affect your success. These are factors that affect everyone and its crucial to learn how to manage the stress that comes with his at a young age. This is not to say homeschooling cannot be done well, but I think its very rare thay a parent can isolate their emotional involvement in their child's life, the way a teacher would, to teach them these soft skills. Teachers study for years to obtain this career. What I mainly disagree with is the reasoning behind why they are homeschooling. The time management involved, the work expected, the responsibility required, consistency & routine is just to name a few. The sole reasons why they want to home school is the critical reasons why school is very important.

[@adrianam.5787]

​@@aloguzyessss to everything you said! Now I can compare private, public and homeschool because my daughter did all three. I can confidently say homeschooling has been the best option for her. She has some sort of activity 5 days of the week, so she socializes alot with so many age groups not just her grade level. Plus, has the time to do charity work since she doesn't have homework. She went to 3rd grade in private school and didn't know how to tell time yet, she came home nearly everyday crying because she was struggling! At that point I was concerned in what is she actually learning. Now that we're homeschooling her brain has blossomed because I started to teach her in a way she understood and now she's ahead of the game and her vocabulary is beyond her age. Kids learn differently and that's why many struggle in school.

[@gabrielasalazar8263]

Not everyone gets the privilege but if you have the opportunity like them why wouldn’t you? The school system is honestly not good and if you can teach your children yourself that’s amazing cause you’re not only able to teach them in your way but you get to spend time with your children. School is so early and so many hours a day and it’s unhealthy for children to be at a table for hours at a time. I work at a school and can honestly say it affects their health and mood.

I feel like adults who say they felt lost in school and didn’t know what they wanted to do when they grew up and look down upon the education system didn’t have true support from their parents. Because parents who take the time to learn their kids, engage and observe their kid’s strengths, put them in extracurricular activities where they can excel aside from the formal/traditional school system and help lead their kids into their future careers. It seems like Mimi and Luis mom weren’t very involved and that’s why you both don’t see the true value of the system. Not every system is great, I will say that for sure. But they are definitely not all bad. You just have to find the right one for your child. You don’t have to always do it yourself. You just have to trust and believe and be present and supportive every step of the way for it to be worth it, idk if any of this makes sense.

I love watching your videos! The school is amazing for keeping track of tardiness because this is how it is determined whether CPS needs to be involved or not. Maybe Penelope was so stressed because she missed so many days and it is hard to catch-up. Kids need a stable life especially growing up so her having a routine of going to school is great for her and it will help her in the future. If your kids decide they want to attend college then why not support them? It doesn't make sense. Life as a influencer will not last forever.

I could give my point of view as a public school teacher, but it really is circumstantial. Some schools are brand new with great programs and some are falling apart. At the end of the day, parents have to do what is best for their children, and public school is the best environment some kids have, which is why I teach where I grew up.

Time has changed Ruth.... Since 2020 they're pushing little kids to inject themselves with a freaking exprrimental v a c c i n e... Kids!! And then the whole gender ideology. Kids should not learn s*xual stuff from a bunch of trachers and at young age... It's a personal aspect. Public schools are funded.... C*rruption is there where you don't expext. Open your eyes.

I totally agree with what you guys said about high schools only teaching you to memorize things. I’m 19 years old and just starting my 2nd year of college. My 1st year was such a struggle for me. I went into college with zero study habits when in college you actually have to understand what is being taught so I spent my whole 1st year trying to figure out the most effective way to study to ensure that i would completely understand the content that was being taught. I never realized until I got to college that high school is purely memorization.

[@brittneybrilett]

Socialization being peoples top priority is crazy! Especially being that out of the eight hours they’re gone they only get to “socialize” a total of MAYBE an hour. School pretty much prepares our kids for corporate America and to me THAT is limiting to children. As a 27 years old women it has taking me yearssss to genuinely figure out what I love, figure out what works for me, my learning style, my passions, ect. Homeschooling gives children the freedom to find the answers to those questions at a very young age. There’s no one to limit them, there’s no students shamming or bullying them into was “cool” and most of all there’s no one to compare themselves too. They create their own standard and typically are much more confident . Just because they’re homeschooled doesn’t mean they can not still attend college or better yet an Ivy League. However, homeschool prepares children for either decision they choose. Entrepreneurship or corporate America. Also, They public school system is definitely lacking. Education has gone down and so many have become teachers because of the security and not the passion. I’m friends with so many women that are teachers that literally say when they have kids they would never place them the the public school system. That’s not to say every school is terrible but we must be real, most schools are not doing very well, and American education is the lowest compared to other countries.

[@millennialodyssey5956]

Your correct it's a complete lie. I told my husband who had time to socialize? You were in class all day only time we had to talk was at lunch and recess in elementary then in high school ONLY at lunch. All of my socializing was after school and mostly during the summer.

What? they have the option to socialize all day if they are not taking an exam. Group projects, play time, recess, lunch… it’s primary school not college!

How will they be able to handle it if they were never exposed to it?

It’s not just about the curriculum. You don’t think this will affect your children in the long run as far as socialization? Making friends?

There’s a lot of different characters out there and I think it’s important for children to be out in the world and learn how other people work.
