Sneaky Snitch by Kevin MacLeod

[dramallamarama]

It’s the fact that, without fail, the parents always have a massive bed in their own private room (aka the baby factory) with real doors and 4 walls. All the while their 7th born is sleeping on the kitchen table.

[Caleb_FC]

i remember one where the daughter’s only wish was to stay in a hotel for her birthday and the mom kept saying “she loves the van she just wanted a change of environment!”

[j.t.]

So you're telling me these parents are paying tens of thousands of dollars to fulfill their povertycore dream while torturing thier kids in the process?

[Jaburesu]

I can’t wait for the “Child of Influencer Parents” therapist certification.

[amethystimagination]

The fact that two of the children in the first clip are sleeping on the actual floor with no mat or anything and the parents have no problem with that is upsetting to say the least.

RV kid here, let me tell you, frog is ABSOLUTELY right. I've been living in a camper with my 3 brothers and parents for the past two years, and these past two years have been an absolute detriment to my mental health. Yes, it is an amazing opportunity I've been given to have seen all the places that I have, but I cannot recall a single positive experience anywhere I've been. I receive little to no education and I'm scared I won't be able to pass my GED, I will probably be repeating high school once I turn 18. I'm lucky enough to not have my entire life posted about on the internet, but even then my parents cross the line sometimes when posting to Facebook. There is no privacy, and my two youngest brothers are forced to share a "bed"(a broken dinette) and my other brother sleeps on the couch, while my parents have a large California queen bed with doors and all the privacy in the world. If you are considering this lifestyle with children, you are guaranteeing that you end up in a nursing home in your old age.

4:16 That woman is crazy 💀She just said: ''Throw those kids onto the couch so you don't need to waste any space on your children's bedroom.'' Like, huh? 💀

[Suntaile]

In Sweden we have laws that prevent overcrowded living spaces, even in apartments and houses. You're legally not allowed to have more than 2 kids/people per bedroom. And no, kitchen, bathroom and living room is not considered a bedroom where you're having your sleeping quarters.

[poke-charlie]

the irony of “my children can’t have technology as a punishment” while your parents film a tiktok about how great your shitty living situation is

[somestranger]

I truly feel for these children, especially the fact that that one girl was humiliated online because she “didn’t do the chores, ” and these parents sharing her punishment online is just horrible.

[danielschwenn]

I was in the Navy for 20 years and my coffin rack, yep, thats the actual technical term for it, was bigger than the beds these kids sleep in. Also, 100% agree a cloth curtain is not privacy.

To be fair, its called a coffin rack because your locker is under the mattress, not due to the size of it.

[thatspiritthingthatfollows]

The fact that the parents have this huge ass bed for themselves while the kids are either sleeping on the ground or in DIY coffins is just depressing. When I was young & was living in a really small rent house due to money problems, my parents would give the bed to me & my siblings while they slept on the floor. They prioritized our comfort over theirs so seeing these "parents" living the way they dreamed of while the kids are suffering boils my blood so much.

[isabellacampeau]

A lot of parents don't seem to realize that kids don't only need privacy from the parents, but from each other too.

[annikahunter]

That one woman who literally had 3 kids sleeping on the FLOOR OF THE VAN while they got a huge ass bed made my blood boil.

[Plinfaa]

I am 17 and i could NEVER imagine living in a Van with my siblings and parents. Esp not like that. My room and its decoration is a way of my self expression. It makes me happy to lay in my comfy bed, surrounded by posters on my walls watching youtube ALONE. In privacy.

[sequiturtenebris]

The really scary part is these kids will turn 18 and be on their own with no proper guidance or support. They were all “homeschooled” which means they have no potential for college, & the constant moving around means they have no stable family or friend connections. They will all end up on the streets. 😢

[goo]

even sharing an actual bedroom can be very hard, i feel so sorry for these kids

[amberferrell]

As an abused kid, this kind of life makes child abuse so easy and very hard to track or report.

[Wendy_]

2:30 bro josiah sleeping on the mf bathroom floor 😭 what did bro do like he doesn't even have a blanket under him or nothin hes just laying on shit particles

[SqualorOpera]

By the way, the curtains are a horrible idea. I used to have a curtain around my bed because I share with two siblings, and it never ends well. No matter what you do, the air can’t circulate well enough and you end up stinking up your house with stale air. In this case, it’s that multiplied by, I wanna say five? and in the very small space of the truck.
