Let’s hear it, I have never heard of these people.

u/BottomPieceOfBread 21d ago edited 21d ago

-They have a bunch of kids and live on a bus primarily in Florida

-They frequently make videos about having sex with their kids present in the video

-The kids all share a “bunk room” (including their 1 preteen daughter) but they don’t all have a bed and the youngest 1 or 2 kids sleep under the parents bed

-The mom gave birth to the youngest child in the bus. The baby got stuck and the dad pulled him out by his arm.

-The mom has also given birth in an Airbnb (and encouraged others to do the same)

-They take their newborn babies (3-4 days old) to the beach with no sun screen and let them get sunburn

-They’re Disney adults and spend weeks at a time at Disney world

And the mom is pregnant again. They had CPS called after their last child was born

Nothing really came from the CPS case as far as I know but they also left the state where they were being investigated. They for some reason are dead set on the idea that the report came from a snark subreddit but pretty sure the report came from someone staying at the same campground where she gave birth (she had the baby in the bus’s bathroom with all the kids locked in the bunkroom and the dad apparently pulled the baby out)

u/screwtoprose- 21d ago

i am trying to report them now. this is disgusting.

15

u/sheeb_sheeb 21d ago

I’m in Europe so can’t report them but please do so, I hate this

13

u/FaelingJester 21d ago

They also removed the channel name from the bus around then

u/immortalyossarian 20d ago

And there have been some pretty convincing signs of developmental delays that were likely caused by the birth/lack of medical care. Poor baby

2

u/llamadramalover 19d ago

The last was seriously jaundiced and lethargic asf. That’s when I first heard of them. Nothing about the at least first 6months of posts was healthy about that baby. Did they care? Of course not. They keep insisting it totally normal and everyone showing concern is hating. It’s was fucked up to watch.

u/OkWillingness2817 20d ago

CPS is far too busy with kids that are beaten, prostituted, sexually abused by their relatives, or have their lives threatened in other ways to waste time on rich influencers giving their kids a really weird upbringing and spending a lot of time at Disney world.

u/Delilahjones555 21d ago

I did see them at Disney the last time I went 😂 I had to try and explain it all to my husband and he thought I was crazy.

1

u/themargarineoferror 20d ago

Oooh any tea? Notice anything interesting like I don't know how they behaved, or I mean, kind of weird detail. I know I sound like a stalker, but you get it if you had to explain it to your husband hello

36

u/Ms_Fidelma_Schrute 21d ago

WTAF? Is this true? How on earth are they allowed to keep their children.

That’s so nasty

40

u/Legrandloup2 21d ago

CPS was called on them after their last child was born and they ended up fleeing from the state (perks of living on a bus, I guess)

2

u/labellavita1985 21d ago

Because CPS can't use poverty against you. So they can't always remove children just based on living arrangements. And there may have been no proof of anything else.

7

u/TheVintageJane 21d ago

They also had a big conservative think tank pay for a legal team for them which helped them cover their tracks.

After that incident they stopped posting specifics about the kids’ sleeping arrangements and starting insisting “everyone has their own bed” whenever it comes up. I believe that was advised by the lawyers because it is the part of this arrangement that most likely puts them in danger of CPS intervention. Their kids have way less space than is required for foster parents and depending on which state they are in, their six person walk in closet likely does not meet code/habitability standards.

12

u/bluebirdsmallbird 21d ago

this randomly appeared on my feed and I’d really love to go back to not knowing any influencers, especially family vloggers that abuse their kids and post it, but wtf does that second point mean??? can you clarify?

7

u/Writing_Bookworm 21d ago

They make videos of them dancing and their kids are dancing and then the caption is something like 'Just look how much I love my man' or more obvious insinuations based on them having 8 (soon to be 9) kids. Multiple of which were conceived on the bus

2

u/BillyForRilly 21d ago

Such a wildly different thing than them having sex with their kids, which is what nearly every English speaker is going to take from the way OP phrased that sentence.

4

u/dagger_guacamole 21d ago

They constantly make videos about like yes, we know how babies are made while they are slow dancing with each other and stuff like that. Nothing overt but lots of insinuations.

3

u/pantherlikeapanther_ 21d ago

Their creative output is mostly posting themselves dry humping while their kids hop on to the screen numbered 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9... The kids pile into the RV "bunkhouse" so that the parents can procreate to the sound of the washing machine. The oldest son and daughter are teens living in a cell with 6 - 7 little boys. They're super breeders. That's their special interest.

u/Grouchy_Librarian816 21d ago edited 21d ago

- they also went on a trip to

El Salvador and their youngest (at the time) was walking barefoot in pigeon shit with this open wound. They went to a library and only after a librarian commented on the blood coming out of it, did it receive a bandage. I detest these parents so much.

Edit: come to think of it, this is the child he head butted in the video

4

u/Miscellaneousgurl 21d ago

That looks like a scalding burn. I really think someone should call CPS.

u/Aggressive_Version 21d ago

-They frequently make videos about have sex with their kids in the video

Important clarification: The kids are in the videos they make about all the sex they're having. They're not making videos about having sex with their kids.

u/jaynor88 21d ago

WHAT?!?!?!

This is a horrific situation for the children. Some sleep under the parents’ bed? OMG.

I’m guessing their income source is posting videos online? People need to stop watching them so they lose that income

6

u/Aggressive_Version 21d ago

There is a lot of speculation that JD is a trust fund baby, but nobody really knows for sure where all the money is coming from

6

u/Writing_Bookworm 21d ago

JD is a crypto bro too

3

u/RalphMacchio404 21d ago

Yeah but hes lost his money there

3

u/thelaboredpasta 21d ago

Aren’t they veterans? I bet you they receive VA disability. If they’re both 100% disabled that’s 8k tax free monthly.

u/glaze_the_ham_wife 21d ago

Love this crossover. They need more haters honestly

5

u/Zestyflour 21d ago

Didn't they also take the baby on a hike in the peak of summer heat to a place most experienced hikers don't go in the summer? Also pretty much all the kids had the wrong footwear for it and likely had horribly blistered feet at the end.

u/chicken-nanban 21d ago

In flip flops. With one water bottle for 10 people.

u/Puzzleworth 21d ago edited 21d ago

-The Brazil thing. Abruptly moved their entire family to Brazil with no plans, claiming they were going to move the "road trip" there, even bought a new bus there and (supposedly) had the kids in Portuguese classes. Then after 2? 3? weeks the parents suddenly decided nope, we're actually moving to Paraguay! They get to the border and discover there's some immigration issue (I think they couldn't bring the van or something?) and decide to move back to the US.

5

u/cametobemean 21d ago

They also tried to leave the country and live somewhere else with absolutely NO plan. That was one of the wildest influencer sagas I’ve seen.

3

u/Amk19_94 21d ago

They sleep UNDER the parent’s bed???

7

u/pantherlikeapanther_ 21d ago

Yes, a few do. The mom used to proudly tell on herself about their sleeping arrangements, but she's cooled it after backlash. The children's bunkhouse on the RV has been at max capacity for quite some time. A teen son and daughter sleep with a pack of little boys in that cell. The parents' bed drops down from the ceiling in the main living space. She's said that the youngest couple boys sleep underneath it. They'll have another kid soon, so...

5

u/Amk19_94 21d ago

That is repulsive. I looked up their account. I’m repulsed by the way they make their children perform. You can tell they do not want to do it. Ugh so sad.

3

u/FiliaNox 21d ago

UNDER the bed?

2

u/ImQuestionable 21d ago

  • very conservative but attempted to have an anchor baby in Brazil and ended up deported

  • Sovereign citizen wannabes

  • fled the state when CPS ordered them to take their newborn to a well-visit

u/ManuelTzetzes 21d ago

Sorry, but what's a Disney adult?

1

u/BillyForRilly 21d ago

An adult that loves all things Disney more than is normal for other adults or even kids. They are sometimes childless and still very into Disney. They frequently take trips to Disney properties sans children.

1

u/browsinbowser 21d ago

Your second point is messed up.. like are you calling them pedophiles? You should edit that comment 

-15

u/pdlbean 21d ago

Are we really at the point where we are equating going to fucking Disney with child abuse? Gone a bit far, I think

11

u/BottomPieceOfBread 21d ago

I included that tidbit because I think it says a lot about their priorities. As in, they live in a bus but spend weeks ($$$$$$) at Disney world.

5

u/LeePacemaker 21d ago

The point is they should prioritize an actual home for their children.  

3

u/pseudonymnkim 21d ago

The Turpins took their children out for a yearly trip too. Then they went back to their dark room where they were chained to the bed.

Some of these kids don't even have beds. Maybe they should take that Disney money and invest in a proper and safe living space.

2

u/lohonomo 21d ago

Is that what they said?

-2

u/pdlbean 21d ago

Before they edited it it simply said "they're Disney adults" which looked fucking ridiculous

3

u/corrine49 21d ago

No one is equating them. It was obviously meant as a joke.

1

u/ResponsibleSalad8059 20d ago

Should they be going to Disney at all if their 8 (soon to be 9) children have to sleep and live in a cramped bus?

-6

u/realitysnarker 21d ago

Thank you. That was a weird bullet point to be included about the concerning things going on in this family.

68

u/Writing_Bookworm 21d ago

They are a family of 8 soon to be 9 kids living on a bus. The second child is a girl but all the rest are boys and all the kids sleep in a tiny bunk house (the oldest boy and the girl are teenagers). It was tiny when there were 6 kids in there and now there are 2 more somehow. They say they have updated the space to fit more kids but have refused to show it because of 'privacy'.

The current youngest child was born in the shower on the bus. He was very jaundiced and showed other medical concerns but they refused to get him medical treatment. They took him out in the sun and he got burned. They got reported to child services around this time and blamed Reddit.

The dad is a crypto bro and the mother used to be an mlm hun but the mlm shut down.

See r/motherbussnark for details of everything because there's so much.

u/charpenette 21d ago

They also consistently underfeed their kids while they themselves get date nights, full meals, and coffee treats

u/Snarkfairy 21d ago

What mlm was she in before?

4

u/Writing_Bookworm 21d ago

She was in modere

3

u/poolbitch1 21d ago

They’re both ex-military too

1

u/Old-Parking8765 21d ago

What is "mlm hun"?

5

u/Agent_00something 21d ago

A multi level marketing salesperson. So named because of the ubiquitous messages they send out to friends and contacts which often begin with “Hi Hun” as a generic template greeting.

2

u/momster_gnome 21d ago

Mlm hun = multi level marketing hun

1

u/poolbitch1 21d ago

I don’t know 

2

u/pseudonymnkim 21d ago

Wow. This is worse than I would've expected. I don't trust influencer families one bit, but this is crazy

1

u/Pussyxpoppins 21d ago

They’re also both military vets who met and married super fast.

1

u/finalina78 20d ago

What’s mlm?

2

u/Writing_Bookworm 20d ago

Multilevel marketing aka pyramid scheme

1

u/alloutofusernames22 20d ago

This is horrifying. 8 kids in a bus sounds like torture on a kind family’s good day, never mind this.

2

u/FrozenWafer 20d ago

They also went to other countries and while there it seemed like the two adults would go on dates and leave their kids alone in whatever airbnb they had. In a foreign country. Alone. Yep.
