🤝 Community Tard Baby General (includes brain dead kids) - Fundies and their genetic Fuckups; Parents of corpses in denial

[Barbarella]

I’m more talking about her demeanor unsettles me and idk if I’m being judgmental or what. Just the non stop smiles, the way she talks, the wide eyes. It makes me uncomfortable. And it weirds me out that no one else in the comments seems to notice it. Every person there seems to think she is a calming presence and that she radiates love. But she really creeps me out. She seems like she is just bragging about being a good person while having this unsettling smile on her face. I don’t get a loving vibe from her I just feel like she could snap at any second. I really wish someone smarter could explain what it is about her that I’m finding so unsettling.

I see what you mean. I think some of it is the filmmaking technique.

They ask her questions, she answers with smiles and enthusiasm, they even get a conversation going with back and forth, and then they cut out everything except what she says. So the absence of the feedback can make her look very strange, and it did here. If they’d replayed the entire conversation she wouldn’t seem so weird.

it worked better with the Dad, probably because he was just able to answer a question and go on tangents. She probably didn’t do that as much.

She also has that super religious way of speaking and smiling which adds a certain robotic tone to her speaking, but I think it’s most the filmmaking.

I didn’t really get tard exploiter from her but I sure hope they have a plan for those downs kids for their old age and after their deaths and aren’t expecting their own kids to take on that burden.

Yeah I don’t know. I don’t think it’s just how they filmed it, she just seems off in general. I don’t really think she’s exploiting them and I guess it’s a good thing they are getting adopted. So I guess this probably wasn’t the best thread to post this in. I am still really unsettled by how she acts. The religious aspect of it also makes me uneasy because I grew up around really religious people and a lot of them were such fake ass people. They all tried to seem like they were the most holy people ever but most of them were awful. This lady reminds me of that sort of performative holiness. The whole time I am watching her speak it puts me on edge because it feels like her mood could just snap at any second. It makes me feel like a child listening to an adult talk all sweet but if I act out of line they will be the scariest kind of angry you could imagine. She just really really unsettles me. I think what unsettles me more though is that in my eyes there is obviously something off about her but almost all the people watching the video don’t seem to see anything weird about her. In fact they all seem to view her as one of the most loving and kindhearted people in the world. Maybe she is, maybe I’m just really bad at reading people. I just don’t trust her though.

 

[Barbarella]

Always trust your gut. you see something most don’t, and you are right.

She creeped me out a bit too but not in an abnormal, she’s dangerous, way. I don’t understand religious people but we are all surrounded by them so I just sort of tune out the God taking the wheel bullshit.

(No offense to the religious among you, I’m talking about the people who can’t speak without mentioning god.).

I get it. I went digging around until I found their last name and dug a little further. She does have an Instagram but it's private, and his is mainly food pictures and travel photos. I also found that they created an org in their home state for foster kids to have summer camps as well as training for foster parents, and they're involved in their church in a foster/adopt ministry also. They really don't seem to be plastering themselves all over social media for asspats or gibs, as far as I can tell. The Youtube video was posted by some guy and his son who are creating many such videos while trying to make their own movie about a kid with Down's, so this family doesn't seem to be self-promoting at all. Not to say it's impossible we'll see them on the news someday with a headline using the words "before turning the gun on herself" but I think this is just your garden-variety Christiany woman who's inexpert at being interviewed and happens to have a bunch of adopted kids.

 

[Pho Real]

Well, they did adopt a bunch of non-disabled kids first. They evidently didn't set out to collect tard babies, but I can see how losing your only biological son at eight months would throw your family plans off their original track. Kind of like Karen Owens (whose repeated tragedies exacerbated her mental health issues and who succumbed to her anorexia a couple of years ago).

It's hard to say without a deeper dive into their lives. Is she a cow with an insta, constantly showing them off, or did she just participate in this little mini-doc?

Don’t forget about Karen Owen first refusing to actively engage in any of the expensive (and unavailable to many people who actually want it) rounds of top-tier eating disorder treatment she went to, plus her concurrent munchie arc and dubious “disabling medical event,” followed by languishing for months before dying. Meanwhile leaving all the disabled children she adopted to be taken care of by her husband and her teenage biological daughter, who got to spend the end of her high school years also taking care of her dying mother. Because what high school girl doesn’t dream of suddenly having parenthood of multiple severely-disabled children thrust upon her, while her mother refuses to address her own mental health issues and instead choose to become disabled herself.

Give me all the top hats, but was pretty gross to watch, with Karen claim she was fully disabled and couldn’t do anything even though it was all self-induced and she was posting body checks and munchie shit on Instagram throughout. I feel awful for her family, but as far as death goes hers was disgustingly selfish and self-pitying. Her husband and daughter lost the same children/siblings she did, but they stepped up and took care of the family while she committed a very slow suicide and made it all about herself.

 

[WarpedTourWasFun]

Oh this bitch.

Meanwhile leaving all the disabled children she adopted to be taken care of by her husband and her teenage biological daughter

Ex-husband. He was already in a relationship with his new boyfriend and going to gay men's retreats on the weekends before she died. She actually tried to out him once on Instagram. He was still sticking around to care for the mother of his children, and that's her response. She was so vile.

Every time she was set to enter treatment she'd have a "medical emergency". If I remember correctly, she also ran away from a treatment facility with a friend at like 2 AM? Fucking act like a grown-up.
She was so full of shit, there were things that could have made her children more comfortable and functional (using tilt on their wheelchairs, physical therapy, power wheelchairs) that she "didn't believe in", but had no problem using herself... she had a super custom high tech power wheelchair, but her actually disabled children were all in the same basic wheelchair, because she wanted them all to match.

I'm also super suspicious about Jayden's death. There's a lot that doesn't make sense about it.

There needs to be an eldest daughter charity for kids like that: munchies' daughters, mom-adopted-a-ton-of-disabled-kids daughters, plus the quiverfull eldest daughters. Something like Job Corps, except on holidays the live-in matron helps remind everyone not to answer her phone if it's Mom.

She seems pretty harmless. I mean maybe she isn't, but she doesn't give me the creepy crawlies like that Special Books for Special Kids weirdo.

I am not sure if this is the right thread to post this but it was the closest to the topic I could find. The woman in the video keeps adopting disabled children and it fills her with a scary amount of joy.

It wasn't so bad at first, but the more it went on the worse it got.

>took out a loan to adopt three Pinoy kids
>no insurance
>"let's adopt this super special needs kid and God will provide!!!"
Yeah, no.
>"Doctors said she wouldn't do x, they were totally wrong!"
You can tell her smile isn't really a smile and is just a seizure contracture
>"After she died I missed the weight of my 45 pound perma-baby in my arms!"
And there's the trifecta.

She may not be super active in social media, but she's addicted to proving how super special and morally superior she is to her congregation, lets her maternal instincts rage unchecked with perma-babies, and gets off on the power of telling doctors they're wrong. Combined with poor financial decisions, I bet her and her husband are up to their eyeballs in debt. Honestly terrifying, and a warning about indulging your monkey-brain too much.

That child looks like a black version of Lola and Chloe (remember them?)

Here's another person I just discovered who I think qualifies for this thread. YouTuber "Momma Bear To Many" has 15 kids, all biological, and the youngest one has Edwards Syndrome.

Trisomy 18.

Usually incompatible with life.

I don't think he's been out of the hospital.

So, is he taking care of the kids now that she's gone?

 

[obsdj]

Yes, but there are only two. The oldest girl (non-tard) is an adult now. Another one of the disabled kids died a few months before Karen did (kid had evidently been on the decline a while and was on hospice). And I assume Adam’s boyfriend is involved with the family too.

 

[booklover]

That he's now with a man - yeah, interesting spin on things. I should have suspected it the first time I saw a picture of him.

Pinhead baby? They must be from some anti-abortion hick state. I didn't think they let you give birth to pinheads anymore.

 

[ZsaZsaBinks]

I really hate going on YouTube and seeing stillbirth videos, because more often than not the unviable newborn looks like a red alien and not a newborn. I don’t know why these families show their stillborn infants to the world for stillbirth awareness when they look like that.

Exactly because they look like that and no one had prepared the grieving parents.

It's ultimately the parents' decision.

I know the millennial and zoomer generations have normalized oversharing, but I think it's time to normalize keeping this kind of thing private. Not because having a stillbirth is anything to be ashamed of, just that showing pictures of a corpse to random strangers is undignified.

On some level I think it could be helpful to people who know that they're having a stillbirth to see that sort of thing—don't expect a pretty baby. But that's something that your obgyn should be telling you, not randoms online.

I mean, people die all the time, not just newborns. We haven't normalized sharing what grandma looked like after she died, and I guarantee 99% of the time that's not a pretty sight either, especially if she died in hospital.

The whole idea of open casket viewings of a "lifelike" body creep me the fuck out, but OK I guess. Even then I don't think you'll see the family sharing photos of grandma in full mortician's makeup "asleep" in her casket. Feel free not to prove me wrong about this, I'd rather die in peace not knowing this boundary too has been obliterated by influencers.

There is no benefit in making your circle of friends or the general public look at corpses online. If someone wants to know in general what those look like, there are (I suppose) clinical websites with examples. Nobody really needs to know what your stillborn infant or dead relative looks like specifically,

Post-mortem photography is not a new or influencer-driven phenomenon. The Victorians in particular were all in on it. If cameras had existed earlier, post-mortem photography would have too.
