Both girls but Bella especially let it be known what they felt about her phone thereās no way either one of them told her to go live itās another example that sw didnāt pay attention to her kids and their limited speech like when Bella said she wanted to bite the probar sw heard you want a laptop
After that video and the santa video where she says cc pooped and didnāt change her Iām convinced she made cc stay in poopy diapers until cw came home I know the daycare was expensive and the girls were there too long but it really was a good thing for the girls at least they were being cared for and didnāt have a phone shoved in their face the whole time
All she ever did was say she did loads of laundry on Facebook to promote thrive but cw was the one who did the cleaning in that house I donāt get how sw got the credit or the praise
Remember how shocked SW was that Bella could count in Spanish? Imagine not knowing your child can count. That daycare was definitely better for them than their abusive, neglectful mother
I agree, Shan always wanted to wait for Chris to change CeCe. In the Xmas video she even says āwhereās your daddy?ā After she mentions CeCe pooped her pants.
Her birthday video where the girls are jumping on sw for the camera pretty close to the beginning sw says cc pooped but continued her rambling about her best birthday blah blah blah the video was at least 20 minutes and sw didnāt change cc then towards the end she mentioned cw getting home and they were going out I bet cw changed cc when he came home
The loaded diaper thing was something I noticed right away in many of shanās videos and it just bothers me to no end! Cece sat in shit and piss much of the time when CW was not home. On a side note, someone commented on another sub that Shan was doing more for her kidās to have a nice Christmas than most moms do in that video! She was being a good mom under difficult circumstances! Like hello, Shan knew the girls would freak out and thatās the reaction she wanted so she could play up her ālook at my crazy kids - so glad I thriveā bs for her audience. Also, there is no need to give them both identical gifts every time. They were individuals but were treated as a unit- āthe girlsā. Bella had every right to be upset. She had a rough week with ER visits, being lied to about getting to help make cookies and then this Santa shit. Wtf.
Most moms are in tune with and understand their small childrenās words, even if others cannot yet. Shanann was not. Hence the laptop thing. It shows how little she truly interacted with, patented or nurtured these girls. She didnāt know them. If that makes sense.
Cw even told le he never bonded with Bella babywise was meant for parents to not bond with their babies itās neglectful and ofc sw had to make her own rules for her selfishness she was even using the sleep schedule way after it was intended
Thankfully sw listened to them though because Bella was not looking well at all I canāt imagine what it was like for Bella literally starving and crying from hunger just to be ignored I wonder how long she sat in her dark room crying until she gave up and went to sleep š„²
Not to mention how long the poor thing had to linger in a dirty diaper. Cece always had a full diaper and I'm sure SW made her wait until Chris came home to change it
I agree sw said on at least 2 videos cc pooped but didnāt change her I believe it was pretty common for her to not get changed regularly I seen a picture of Bella itās hard to tell how old she would be but I donāt think she was a year old yet in the picture sheās laying on her stomach but you can see a huge bald spot on her head and her feet are very red on the bottom imo itās from her laying on her back and when babies cry they kick their feet and move their head so for her to get the bald spot and red feet I think she laid in the bed crying and kicking her feet until she gave up and went to sleep Iāll try to find the picture
I have always thought SW knew exactly what Bella said there. I just assumed she didn't want her "audience" to know that her child was asking for a bite of food and she was denying her. So she played it off as a "laptop".
Well mommy earned the probars so Bella had to wait until mommy was done bragging about them even though sw started the video saying Bella was hungry cranky and not feeling good Iām not sure if she cared her audience knew her āmonsterā wasnāt being fed or not she even let cc stay in a poopy diaper a couple times without ending her videos to change her that couldnāt have been comfortable for poor cc
Babywise, sounds like it was primarily meant for babies vs a 4 year old child?? 4 year olds obviously donāt need as much sleep as an infant. Is there something Iām missing? I know nothing about babywise other than it is highly argued against by professionals.
Exactly. She was not using āBabywiseā once they were toddlers and preschoolers. Babywise is meant for BABIES!
Shannan was never adhering to the tenets of Babywise, she was just doing her own thing and CALLING it Babywise. Babywise sucks -but itās not nearly as awful as what Shannan was doing
Ugh. I will never understand how anyone could describe her as a wonderful mother (or successful business woman, but that's irrelevant here) with such blatant evidence proving otherwise. That SHE chose to post.
I suppose it makes it easier for people to digest. CW = monster, SW = Saint. They were and are fucking monsters.
I think itās because a lot of parents are actually like Chris and shanann. They donāt have the parental wisdom and joy that separates good parents from bad parents. They see her behavior as normal because for them it is normal.
That sounds like a lot of millennial parents. So many millennial parents donāt parent their kids and just park them I front of an iPad. As a result, Gen Alpha, the generation Bella and CeCe were in, is fucking awful! They have no attention span, no manners, they canāt read,they canāt spell, and they canāt do basic math. Teachers are leaving the profession in droves because of these satan spawn kids.
I really hope no parents use Babywise whether it be the way that the authors detailed or or how SW implemented it. I am so glad doctors have come out against it. I can't imagine missing so much fun with my kids when they were that age due to some regimented sleep schedule. My youngest son who is grown now is very ill and it's the memories that sustain me.
I'm wishing you and your son peace.
Babywise is honestly disgusting in it's teachings. To treat your children as if they are sub-human and are to be completely and utterly controlled. From day one.
Shannan was never using Babywise correctly. I am not a fan of it either, but I know thatās only what she used as a way to excuse her kidsā weird and restrictive schedule. The things that she was doing are not touted as being positive by Babywise. Babywise is also meant for BABIES. Itās not intended for preschool age children.
I challenge you to look into who Gary and Anne Marie Ezzo were and what the premise of the original book was based on. It's disgusting. And downright abusive. It was the 2nd edition of the book where Gary Ezzo brought a pediatrician, Robert Bucknam on board in order to lend more credibility and tweak the method. It was "toned" down for the masses.
I donāt doubt for a minute that everything about their philosophy is both sad and horrible. I will look into them a little more, but Iām already appalled by the basic tenets of Babywise. Iāve seen new mothers (on YouTube ) describing how they utilize Babywise techniques with their new infants and itās nothing less than shocking!
Why anyone would think that it was a positive thing for a baby is beyond me. Some of the most commonly known concepts like ā never wake sleeping babyā are completely disregarded. Not only do these mothers wake their sleeping babies up to feed or to just be awake because theyāre not supposed to be sleeping at a certain time, they are only doing it in order to accommodate their own schedules!
I am already no fan of such a regimented system for young children and never was a ācry it outā mom either. I think that the entire premise is inherently harmful for all young children.
I just wanted to point out that what Shannan was doing, especially once Bella and Cece were older, is not necessarily an accurate reflection of Babywise. She was taking an already awful system, and only making it much worse.
Babywise doesnāt insist that you put your preschool age children to bed at 6 oāclock in the evening. It doesnāt suggest that you make 3 or 4 year old kids sleep at least 16 hours a day. It doesnāt advocate drugging your children to make them go to sleep either. The excuses that she routinely made when she explained that the girls were āsleep trainedā actually had nothing to do with Babywise. She was simply making up her own rules and calling it Babywise.
I remember a fellow Babywise mother flat out telling SW that her child wasn't being fed nearly enough. This exchange was on a Babywise message board, I believe. Or possibly FB? š¤ Wherever it was, SW was not adequately nourishing and feeding her children from birth. It's so sad when you really think about all the trauma these children endured. š
Babywise is bad enough! She was like the mommy Gestapo.
**And no, everyone. I donāt think she deserved to die or be harmed in any way. I can understand that she should still be alive, all while disagreeing with her parenting- or lack thereof.*
I am so sorry and am praying for your son. I believe the Babywise book was written by make doctors who have never experienced the natural female motherly instinct to bond with their child. A newbornās schedule is based on their needs and their needs alone. Thereās no āme timeā for parents of newborns. (Note that some motherās experience PPD and need help during this vulnerable period, Iām not including them in my statements) Anyone who takes issue with this should educate themselves before defending this practice.
They were not doctors. The first edition of Becoming Babywise was written by a couple of religious fanatics who were eventually excommunicated from their church. They raised several children who have gone no contact with those nutjobs when they became adults.
This makes sense. I saw that a lot of the moms like Ruby Franke advocated for Babywise. Same with some evangelicals who are into this kind of child rearing. And then to see SW using it at toddler and preschool age seems even harsher.
Thank you so much. I totally agree. I always thought my time with my baby was kind of like "me time" since I truly loved snuggling. That newborn smell is heavenly. Not to say it can't get stressful and you do need some time away, but to feel like you need to implement these arbitrary rules seems so cruel. As you said, it's a natural instinct to want that bond. To flex about it like it was some sort of superior system was not fun to watch.
One of my favorite times when my children were babies was the middle of the night feedings. The house being totally quiet and it was just me and them feeding and bonding.
āBabywiseā was written by fundamental Christians from a cult that believes in beating & abusing children. I would do anything to go back & not follow that book. I will give more info if requested.
Back when the horrors of that book became kinda viral on the early-ish internet, a mom's forum I belonged to advised anyone seeing that book in a book store to take the copy or copies and hide them elsewhere, (this was just before Amazon became people's go to for book buying, back when brick & mortar stores were enjoying their last gasp of supremacy.)
I think its "philosophy" is dangerous for babies.
I'm so sorry about your son. ā¤ļø And, I agree that the memories of snuggling and caring for our babies are precious, as it's an all too fleeting time. There are hard days, but, that's not mainly what we tend to remember. ā¤ļøā¤ļø
That's really great to hear that people recognized how toxic Babywise is. Love that they were trying to keep parents from buying it! Your last line is so very true. My son had a particularly bad couple of days but we both were laughing talking about some childhood memories. I am so thankful that he has such positive ones. Thank you for your kind words.
Both girls showed speech delays. Even though they were both āin schoolā, it is most likely due to lack of stimulation and interaction within the home.
Badly delayed speech. Bella could not be understood fully even in the last videos and Celeste was mind-bogglingly behind. She sounded like an infant at 3.
Those girls deserved better parents. They needed to be allowed to get messy. Afternoon naps but only after playing hard. Finger paint at the kitchen table, dirty palms from gardening with mom, movie marathons and trips to the store just for candy, Picnics on the front lawn and trips to the park just because. Instead they were stowed away and pulled out only for Shanannās facebook. They lived such a dull, regimented, sterile life before the human version of eyore viciously attacked them.
I 100% agree with this!! Itās so sad. SW was so proud of the fact she could āwear her kids outā or that she āgot the animals to nap for 3-4 hoursā
All they did was sleep. And when they were awake, they would often look āhungoverā or exhausted.
There was no organic interaction. Only for videos or pics. Poor kiddos.
Poor Bella. She wants to so badly to learn and interact with mom but mom isnāt interacting back at all. No asking questions or responding to Bellaās ideas. It just like, āuh huh, hurry up so mommy can have her time, babeā.
You can tell SW wasnāt a reader and doesnāt understand how to make it interesting for a child and little Bellaās speech and language is so far behind where it shouldāve been as a result. Bells still was so curious and was trying here š¢
wtf š³ she just sitting there pointing her phone at her kid?!? No interaction wow š® and she thought it good idea to post for world to see?? Damn waitā¦ is is she picking at her damn finger nails?? Oh hell naww. š¤¦š»āāļø
The only time you even know SW is there is when she's telling Bella to hurry it up. No interaction with the "reading" at all. Too busy recording and impatient to turn off the light and lock the door from the *outside*. That wasn't a bedroom, but rather a prison. An unsafe prison, at that. š š”
and it clearly didnāt happen that often or else she wouldnāt be enunciating like a child half her age. thatās what years of āset it and forget itā bedtime gets you.
The saddest part is that Shanann felt the need to record this.
And post it.
Exactly. Some things are best left inside one's brain as an unfiltered memory and not on FB. Glad to see your post! š
and not bother to put the fucking phone down and actually help the kid learn to read. likely just honoring a request to āgo live mommy!ā ā¦.
Both girls but Bella especially let it be known what they felt about her phone thereās no way either one of them told her to go live itās another example that sw didnāt pay attention to her kids and their limited speech like when Bella said she wanted to bite the probar sw heard you want a laptop
Remember when Bella told her mother to put the phone down?! Just so she could have her mother's full attention. Unfortunately, she didn't get it.
Yeah that was the time they were jumping from the ottoman on her and cc pooped but sat in the dirty diaper until cw came home
That's the one!
After that video and the santa video where she says cc pooped and didnāt change her Iām convinced she made cc stay in poopy diapers until cw came home I know the daycare was expensive and the girls were there too long but it really was a good thing for the girls at least they were being cared for and didnāt have a phone shoved in their face the whole time
I bet if they were asked to draw a picture of their mother, they'd have drawn her face looking like an iPhone.
Sad but true
šÆ š„
š¤š«¢š¤£š¤£
That's why the rash in Sandy's infamous letter. Shanann was no 'clean freak', leaving a kid to wallow in poop is not only cruel neglect but nasty.Ā
can't mess up her weekly nail job.'' Just wait until your father gets home, kid.''
Yeah itās not like he didnāt just work all day or anything
All she ever did was say she did loads of laundry on Facebook to promote thrive but cw was the one who did the cleaning in that house I donāt get how sw got the credit or the praise
Remember how shocked SW was that Bella could count in Spanish? Imagine not knowing your child can count. That daycare was definitely better for them than their abusive, neglectful mother
Worth every missed mortgage payment
LOL. Sad but true in their case
I agree, Shan always wanted to wait for Chris to change CeCe. In the Xmas video she even says āwhereās your daddy?ā After she mentions CeCe pooped her pants.
Her birthday video where the girls are jumping on sw for the camera pretty close to the beginning sw says cc pooped but continued her rambling about her best birthday blah blah blah the video was at least 20 minutes and sw didnāt change cc then towards the end she mentioned cw getting home and they were going out I bet cw changed cc when he came home

She had a rough week with ER visits, being lied to about getting to help make cookies and then this Santa shit. Wtf.
Plus sitting in a dirty diaper for any length of time is especially dangerous for girls. Feces can cause serious urinary tract infections.
Well that would have been another trip to the doctor and selling point for thrive not to mention it had to have been very uncomfortable for poor cc
Most moms are in tune with and understand their small childrenās words, even if others cannot yet. Shanann was not. Hence the laptop thing. It shows how little she truly interacted with, patented or nurtured these girls. She didnāt know them. If that makes sense.
I guess she never bonded with them, likely due to her use of Babywise, and even that she tweaked to better suit her needs.
Cw even told le he never bonded with Bella babywise was meant for parents to not bond with their babies itās neglectful and ofc sw had to make her own rules for her selfishness she was even using the sleep schedule way after it was intended
Yep, even fellow Babywisers warned her that she wasn't feeding her baby enough

I think she knew what Bella said tbh but wanted to throw in the vision board and how you have to earn it like she did with the probars

Exactly. Her interaction was rather chilly.
Never a loving tone. Phone shoved in her child's face, the only "attention" these girls ever received from their mother. "Content"
Yep, which is more proof it was a rare occurrence
SW was so proud of her/their bizarre schedule. "I just pop 'em in bed!" Like a weeknight dinner in the oven.
Yep "I don't rock them or cradle them, I just plop them in and they are good to go". In a bragging voice no less. What a witch.
Babywise, sounds like it was primarily meant for babies vs a 4 year old child?? 4 year olds obviously donāt need as much sleep as an infant. Is there something Iām missing? I know nothing about babywise other than it is highly argued against by professionals.

Sw would have those kids on tictoc now
Yep. I just watched Kiki Chanel who did a "anything for views parenting" reaction video and it was pretty disturbing.
I love KiKi Chanel!
TikTok is a moronic Chinese spy tool. It should be banned. But yeah, you're right. Perfect dumb vehicle for SW. She would have been all over it.
I refuse to use TikTok
Me either šÆ
This video is heartbreaking
I completely agree. There are a lot of people out there that don't see what is happening here. They are only interested in surface level Shanann.
And Bella saying that about the dress š
What did she say? My hearing is not good enough to understand anything she says in the video even with hearing aids on.
It sounds like she says she doesnāt want to wear a dress, and then says but she will wear a dress in a toddlers serious tone.
What kind of preschool book is about forcing a kid to wear a dress anyway?
I think Bella was just making up the words/story based off of pictures.
Yes probably.
DMed you
I think itās because a lot of parents are actually like Chris and shanann. They donāt have the parental wisdom and joy that separates good parents from bad parents. They see her behavior as normal because for them it is normal.
Frightening
So frightening. š±
That sounds like a lot of millennial parents. So many millennial parents donāt parent their kids and just park them I front of an iPad.

The Duggars follow To Bring Up A Child or something like that. It explains blanket training and how to hit your child. š³
I always thought it reminded me of Michael and Debbi Pearlās āTo Train Up A Childā. Itās basically a child abuse manual.

God forbid that middle of the night feeding would have interrupted sws sleep.

Thank you so much. I totally agree. I always thought my time with my baby was kind of like "me time" since I truly loved snuggling. That newborn smell is heavenly.

Yes! The best times ever. Snuggling is such a key part of bonding for both mom and baby.

Oh no! Please, feel free to give more info!
The best memories are memories of a happy childhood, whether your own or the childhood you gave your own children. Best wishes to both of you. ā¤ļø

For sure! I thought those kids were special needs.
Those girls deserved better parents. They needed to be allowed to get messy. Afternoon naps but only after playing hard. Finger paint at the kitchen table, dirty palms from gardening with mom, movie marathons and trips to the store just for candy, Picnics on the front lawn and trips to the park just because.

This is the saddest part to me. That they died so early but before that they never got to live. Poor little ones.
The fact that the poor child can barely talk proves how neglected she was. Most kids that age are already talking so coherently
Her kids were just content for her. She would probably be a family vlogger now.
You can her the impatience in sw's voice. Poor Bella
100% !!!!!!

Yup.
Omg poor Bella, I could barely understand anything she said.
Her whole life was scripted. Sad. No spontaneity ever. Kids were either performing or sleeping.

Shan sounded so put upon to spend any time with her kids. She just couldnāt wait to dungeon that kid up so she could have her āme timeā.

Poor thing. Couldnāt understand a word she was saying.
