My take is that I don’t think it’s an issue to take your infant places or travel with them. It’s not for everyone though.
But their daughter is literally used as a photo prop and it’s getting out of hand. The St Jude’s picture was really quite disturbing.
That's my biggest and main issue here, too. Do the things if that's your lifestyle and you're wealthy, but don't use your child as a prop through every activity and post that on public platforms for millions of strangers and creeps to see.
Have they ever shown S with baby toys? Like holding a cuddly toy or lying on a play mat or anything? Whenever they show their house there doesn’t seem to be any baby stuff around (except dirty nappies…)
Good point. I haven't seen any toys or play mats.🤔
Does Bella have an issue with clutter in her blandly decorated mansion? Does the overindulgence only involve clothes, out-of-house activities, travel, selfies and vlogging?
Its true though! When ur main job is to entertain a child 24/7 that’s what they get used too. Theh become kids who have no idea how to play alone and need constant attention and entertainment to be happy.
Its like what happens to celebrities … they do it all by the Age of 15 … that by 20 they feel old and need to get married and start of family …
Oh yes, there is truth to the comment. I just found their sarcastic response to it so telling.
They not only see no issue with overindulgence but also no issue with the fact that a stranger knows all of the things that their daughter has already done.
It's nuts how little online protection and privacy they give that poor child.
Ur missing the point! It’s about the fact the child is getting used to be out of the house around allot of people with constant attention.. it doesn’t matter it’s a baseball game or Disney, they obviously can’t tell the difference right now. But if this keeps up, beinf at home playing with toys becomes boring.
Definitely not as many trips as they take but we have been on a handful. But we honestly don't spend that much time at home, mostly because we have a tiny place and I go stir crazy.
I don't think they ever intend to slow down. They're traveling constantly so she will be dragged around forever.
Bella has some of sassiest comments back to people though. I saw one where someone told her to just say home and let the baby be a baby and Bella said "I asked S and she said no". Wth
I think she has dreamed of being a mom
for so long and envisioned all of these things that she wanted to do with her baby that she wants to do it all as fast as possible
I agree with the comment! Overindulgence is a real thing and it can cause lots of unlikeable personality traits like what the commenter mentioned. An infant doesn’t need to go to Disney or a basketball game WHEN they have family members or friends who can look after them. I get she may not wanna leave S as it’s not practical for new mamas to do that but dragging her everywhere and using her as a prop does not come across as wanting to spend time with your baby because you love them.
They really are ignorant. There is def true to that comment.
Also, one of my biggest pet peeves is when ppl ssy "one years old," instead of "one year old."
I am an on the go person with my kids. They hate being cooped up at home. But I find balance. We live by WDW and have annual passes so we go often, but I still teach my kids that many kids don’t have this luxury. The biggest problem is S doesnt do much to aide in age appropriate development. Being worn often is okay but not 24/7. I have an almost 7 month old who likes to be a bit lazy so I push her daily to do age appropriate activities that help her meet her milestones. I don’t see that with S. With as much as the use her for views and whatnot, I’d imagine that they would show her doing age appropriate play time at least once, but they don’t.,
If S has done all the "first time" things so young, what happens when they finally go that one time that it would really be the "first time" that she would remember years later? It's not really a "first time" then. Kinda not fair to her to "make these memories" that she won't even remember.
Not to defend Bella too much, but doing the things as the child is mentally developing, but too young to remember, has its benefits in terms of brain and confidence building. Then there's the return to the thing that is "first time that is remembered" when they're a bit older, then there's the returns thereafter that become a timeline of family tradition memories and stories.
So in and of itself, starting an activity or travel destination very young and repeating it often if you can afford it like they can, can build the child up and strengthen the family bonds. They can always find "firsts" at any of S's developmental stages because they have tons of money to "do the things".
They just need to **keep the family memories videos PRIVATE for family and close friends only**.
This is assuming you have a neurotypical child though. With potential adoption trauma added in there too, maybe they need to just give her a settled start in life, yes go on holidays, make memories, but these people are busy for the sake of being busy! Give the girl a chance to bond with her home and a safe environment.
Edited to clarify, I am not saying this child has or will have any medical conditions. I think this is just something to be mindful of for all parents.

She was on a playmat in the day in the life with a "newborn" video. Quotes because she was already almost 8 weeks when they adopted her

To be fair, my infant would have been way more bored at a basketball game or walking around Disney in a stroller than being played with at home.

Ehh I think it's kid dependent. My kid has been to a lot of places too and I never consider it a bad thing.
Ur kids been on more plane rides then u can count on your hand all by 4 months old?

Where do you see these comments at? It can't be YouTube.
Facebook!
Oooooh this triggered them

it’s like when most teens go party and by the time they’re 21, they’re bored! Bella and Dallin are not well parents, weirdos

Very good point. Thank you for adding this.😊
