Horrorcow Adele and Matt Allen / The Unconventional Parent - 'Off Grid Parents', appeared on This Morning for attention, backfired on them wonderfully.

Awesome - four more welfare leaches for society to take care of!

That baby does not look healthy.

Neither does the five year old. These kids get sick and get no medical attention because "fevers are healing." WTF. I want to jump in a plane to go save these kids.

Bet they don't mention that though.

Although Brighton makes me think they're middle class crunchy granola types and each daddy left them a bit of a nest egg...

I have one question. If "family of four all sleep in the same room" and they have two kids, does this mean that adults had sex right next to their kid (and proably still have)?

Probably. There are breastfeeding nutjobs out there that will talk in public forums about having sex while nursing their kid(s.)

Your avatar is my face right now.

I love the fact that they're "going off the grid" but appear on a TV show.

I wonder, maybe when little one urinated on the floor, it was actually a cry for help.

Sometimes I do wish there was a license for people who want to breed.

Brighton logic that. Gotta get that attention somehow.

Either that or they have sexy times when the kids are out.

Spoiler: :horrifying:

I've read about "off grind parenting" when my sister-in-law got kids, luckily she snapped out if thanks to our constant bitching. But yes, parents are encouraged to let their children sleep in the same bed. Rumor has it that children until the age of 3 don't remember much, so it would be okay to have sex in the same room. I was pretty much freaked out by this.

This is sooooooooo common. There was an "off the grid" family in Kentucky a few years back, the Naugler's, who had their ten kids taken by CPS, where the mom had multiple homesteading blogs and a YouTube channel. They also stole water from their neighbors hose, because I guess that also counts as off the grid!

I don't want to powerlevel, but I have memories from that age. They are pretty sketchy, but still. And luckily they have nothing to do with thing I've mentioned.

God damn on top of all of this did they say they at 'unschooling' their kids? These kids will be lucky to learn the alphabet, assuming they live long enough.

They are exactly the sort of people who would think they knew more about the subject than the instructor anyway. Unwillingness to accept anyone else's advice is a major part of what makes lolcows lolcows.

 

[NIGGO KILLA]

The kids would probably be better off if they were raised by wolves

Even wolves understand that it is better to cut an umbilical cord.

Oh, sweet Jesus, are they also "lotus birthers?"

They are.

I believe the subject popped up in The Metro article in the OP.

 

[escapegoat]

I have no idea where hippies got the idea that dragging around a rotting, expelled organ was the ideal method of infant care, but I suspect it was because eating the fucking thing doesn't have the shock factor it used to.

There is something deeply creepy about this woman's face.
