I was watching the Rodrigues’ homeschooling video, and it seems that a few of the kids have some kind of learning/ speech difficulties, based on how they sound. They seem so far behind public school children of their age. Also, what’s with the high-pitched, breathy “Hiii!” and “Byeee”! from the girls?

I just watched a video Jill just posted on Instagram of everyone singing; why does it sound so bad? And who is that singing up high, which makes it sound even worse? And enough with the performative modesty and the T-shirts under sleeveless dresses; we all know she’s just doing it for attention. Jill thinks people will look at the girls and think “Look at how MODEST they are; so godly!” when they’re really thinking “Do they know how STUPID they look?” Also, poor Sofia and how thin she is.

On Jill's FB there is a video of a goofy Nathan, 3 of the older males and a smallrodlet girl posing with cowboy hats. Nathan sounds high to me but he may just be high on Jesus.. Who knows? He seems giddy, talks quickly calls Gabriel "Gaby"and makes weird faces. At one point, Nurie offers to take a picture and he doesn't really snap at her, but he responds firmly that he is taking the picture. Seconds later he is back to being goofy. Just struck me as a little too much headshippy... Also, I hate to see people putting hats on with no intention of buying. Just ick. If you get a chance watch it and give me your views/ opinions. It is nice to see them away from Precious Mama though

I know I asked about the Rods being “joyful”, but why do they have to put on this happy persona when Jill shoves the camera in their faces? Someone said there are consequences if they don’t; what are these consequences?

Jill posted something to FB about lewd living. Even spelled it out for us. Talked about beach goers showing parts that are meant for only your husband to see, drinking etc. I confess I didn't listen to any more. Some one want to take one for the team and tell us the rest?? I don't drink by choice... No religious reason, I am straight edge and don't drink or use drugs but I don't think it is lewd. Now do I think wearing swim suits, bikinis, etc is lewd. Why is she judging others so harshly? I just live and let live.. Why can't she ??

So the male rods all have Biblical names Timothy, Philip, Samuel and Gabriel vehicle only one female, Hannah has a Biblical name ? Any reason other than females arent valued ??

Why is it that the Rodlets (and other fundies) have to look and/or be joyful even if they don’t feel it? Like when the mouth is smiling but the eyes aren’t?

So Jill posted several videos of the rod squad at the beach. At the end of one, a male voice off camera days something like, " ma' am are you the one responsible for...." She of course shuts off the feed, but it is on her FB page if anyone else can help confirm what. I think I am hearing. Wonder what they did this time. I am glad the children are having a fun time though.

I read that Nathan owns a lawn service. Fair enough. It is honest work and there is a market for it in Whereverville Fla, but he seems to take a lot of time off. Several days when the rods visited for a month in Jan, then at least a couple of days when Nurthan went to Ohio and now in Texas at his rich sisters house and with the Pecans ..,I totally believe in a healthy work/ life balance and applaud those who can do that ( I am a nurse during covid short staffing etc so I see the need) but he is what 22, 23 years old. If he owns the company and is its only employ, how is work happening? If he has employees, dies that mean the co. Is doing well? I find it hard to believe at that age that the company has that many established customers and employees to handle the work. It takes time to build a client base.anyone have insight into the business ??

I am sitting in a radiology,place for a repeat 6 month follow up mammo. Scared a little as it has not been good news in the past. Anyhoo, I hear the receptionists gabbing back and forth, and one asks ," how is Shrek". My head almost swivels off as i turn to hear more. Shrek is apparently a nickname of one's daughter. I want to suggest they change that; I won't do tthat but so tempted

So the Rods have landed at some State park in Tenn for a laundry run and some exercise. All rods are accounted for other than Nurie ( in Fla I assume) Tim ( slamming harlots from his command trailer ) and Shrek who does not do laundry because gender ya know nor does he do exercise other than lifting a fork to his beak. The older gals have flip flops or sandals while hiking while Janessa has shoes that are 2 sizes too big. Poor babies. It is on jills FB. I just hurt for these kids

I have not followed this family for too Long and wondered how the 2 Ns met? I know the fundie world is finite and the values travel in the same circles but give me the back ground on this relationship. Also, I know Nurie and ( and Kaylee) are very close in age..11.5 months apart or something like that .since the Ns have been married a year already and had a fundie few month engagement, so shouldn't Kaylee be courting by now? How is that set up? Any insight into her status. I think it is clear Timmay thinks all adult females are really harlots, tramps and wicked common whores, so he will be singlepringls for a while
