I really like Sophie. She went into an unfamiliar situation and completely adapted, with so much grace and compassion. She is so aware of her economic privilege. Never hate on someone because they have it easier than you. All it takes is open minded communication on both sides.
shes sweet!! and keeps it real
I agree, I didn't know what to expect turning this show on but I was pleasantly surprised. A very bright, articulate young woman. She's going to go far. I'm proud of her. And I'm proud of the Family! The children are so polite, such nice folks. This episode was a breath of fresh air really. I'm so used to the latter unfortunately.
She was VERY down to earth, went from "i dont like kids" to hugging them all goodnight with a huge smile
She ain’t
She is @@traveling_future
She wasn’t really spoiled, just more so privileged. But she was very aware of how privileged she is which makes her 100x better than other rich kids. She doesn’t flaunt it, she just has it. It’s not her fault she was born into a well off family.
And she has her own little business.
They may have 5 young kids but they're all, polite, well-behaved and so lovely. Mom and Pa must be proud of them all. ☺️
Seriously, such a blessing. Wonderful behaved kids raised with good morals
Sophie was right to question if the business was really a business or hobby. The amount he charges, the amount of kids that participate and then to pay a coach, leaves him in the negative. He needs to reevaluate the finances so he can make a profit.
Exactly! Or get a full-time job, so he can better support his family!
Yup and the mum could certainly work part time at night or weekends to help get ahead. He should really just to private football lessons. They would pay more
@@amyraleigh1715Mum could work but then they would probably get less benefits. It’s a tricky situation. I live in Canada. The more you earn, the less welfare (benefits) you get. I used to work with a woman who worked part time. She said if she worked full time she would lose out on welfare payments.
@@amyraleigh1715when your in a deprived area you are limited to deprived clientele so its not as simple as charging more.. if the avarage family has 2 kids and £40 at the end of the month what are you gonna be able to charge for recreational activitys without alienating half the comunity... Try starting a business in a rough area and you find out pretty quickly their aint much money to go around full stop. Its very difficult when your community needs a pillar to not step up and be that and your business very easily becomes a charitable organisation.
@@lauriewu-jf5nhin Sweden you get benefits even if you earn more, it’s like they cut the Excess income so for example if you get benefits for like 500pounds you can work up to 1500pounds and still get benefit, as soon as you make a pound more than 1500 you get taxed on the excess pound only. This way it pays to work without affecting your income negatively while still benefitting the economy. I don’t understand why some of the western wealthy nations like the UK and US is still behind 🤦🏿♂️
Please do a program based on the other way around. It would be lovely for an underprivileged family to spend a few days in opulance. Yup,now THAT would be a treat for them.
That would be beyond cruel. The rich kids get to go back to luxury. The poor kids would be sad to go back home
Cruel? Nothing cruel about it. It may help the children and adults strive for something better. As the lyrics go...youve gotta be cruel to be kind 🎶.... THINK! 😉@@jessicahexhibits
@@jessicahexhibits The only way for that to not be cruel is to give them a home makeover and a years worth of groceries to help them out.
Rich house poor house
Great idea, love it 😊
Sophie just oozes professionalism, I'm not sure she belongs on this show for rich, spoilt kids.! I'm a fan for sure.!
She's rich for sure and maybe a bit spoiled, but its not a bad thing. She's very sweet and very aware of her privilege and what she likes to do. Sophie is clearly very smart too. Overall just a sweet girl who happens to have money. Gives me Elle woods
Sophie looks older than the kids' mom. But she was absolutely right pointing out how their life choices (job and number of children) have created their circumstances.
Why’d you have to be rude about her looks tho
@@Frietoe Not rude I just don't buy that her age is accurate.
It’s the Botox and fillers, not that it’s any of our business.
@@jenfoster128 She's studying to be a dentist so statistically she has to be in her early 20s!
She's in her early 20's... her "looks" were bought. Not natural. The mom's face isn't filled up with expensive, body damaging chemicals the way Sophie's is. Sad that women with the money feel the need to waste it on ruining themselves. Especially so early in life. She would look younger, healthier and better without that bs👍
I appreciate that Sophie works and has invested time and effort in her education. She was lovely.
Agreed, the name of the show almost implies she doesnt worm and lives off mommy and daddies money
Sophie's incredibly down to earth, you can tell she came onto the program with the intention to learn and not just go on some poverty tourism, judging by the way she so compassionately expressed her opinions, insights and suggestions then backed them up (especially the seemingly shallow takes) as per experience encountered, she doesnt just say things to put on a jaded facade or for shock value, you can pick up on the prevelant depth and authenticity behind the privileged veil... beautiful episode. her ability to get unequivocally involved in the proactivism, really showed how serious she is about her perceived morality and the action taken to showcase such integrity.
😢😢 Mandy broke my heart all she does is spend time taking care of her children she has no friends or time for her own self. She's such a sweet lady.
It’s the life she chose by having all those kids
@@solarlola5953I didn’t see Mandy complaining she seemed grateful so I’m sure she’s fully aware of her choices
probably the unpopular opinion but why would you give up a paying job to take on a risky business that you wont get an income from for some time and you have 5 kids at home. You just don't have that luxury. You have to work and provide for the children you chose to have. I'm sorry but that's just madness. AND He's paying a trainee coach... this guy actually annoys the hell out of me. He could easily do an actual job and the football thing as a side line. He needs to get real.
Exactly and to make matters worse they decide to bring another child into their poverty stricken family.
@@NH-tb2sm yeah solely because they wanted a child together, never mind the fact they can't afford the other 4, as lovely as they are, it's just not right. They really need to get real. Stop paying the benefits if there's an able bodied adult to work!
He is taking the risky job change for three reason flexibility for child care and involvement in the kids lives when you and the chance to earn more money and to give to the community. I think it’s fine to give it a go. He can always go back to work if it don’t turn out. Likely had to with COVID. This was done before.
Sophie is lovely. Sensible, no -fuss, gets stuck in.
Such a treat after all the limp-wristed, camp guys❣️
Sophie was raised sooo extremely good and humble young woman ! Her parents most be so proud ! I don’t know her but I feel proud of her !!! This is how you raise a descent human being ❤ with class and elegance despides she got it easier she is a hard working lady and humble !!!! That’s how you suppose to raise kids with moral and integrity ! The way she adapted and never ever complained or nagging … all respect to her parents and Sophie ❤
I feel for the family. I am quite pissed at the father for allowing them all to be so broke. There was so much time in between coaching where he could have been at a proper job making money to support his family. NO need for them to be living that way. He chose to not have an income come in.
Can’t feel bad for people who keep having kids they Know they can’t afford! Then he Quits a Paying job to pursue his non paying coaching “dream” knowing the government will pay for them to live. Smh. Once you decide to keep having kids you already can’t afford you lose the right to pursue your “dreams” until you are in a financial place to do so.
I have to agree with you😢 they seem like a nice family though and I’m not judging their hardship wish them the best❤
Four of those kids are from Mandy’s previous marriage so they only had one in common. I mean if you are poor already it doesn’t make big difference between 4 or 5
It does actually, on benefits with all children in primary school to receive benefits she would have had to work a certain number of hours, so they keep creating more. @bambi7896
exactly, why keep having children when you are in hardship? cannot sympathize with them
Bro they seemed happy and grateful I didn’t hear them complain 😂
Maybe it’s the “American” in me, but those parents (at least the dad) could easily get a full time or even part time job so they’re not in poverty. Ppl who have kids and are on the poverty line in the states get their kids taken away. They are both seem able bodied so one of them could get a job. The soccer thing could be done as private lessons or as a hobby if he’s that into it
I guess i'm American cause i share the same belief as you
I am an Indian yet I agree with you
Yeah, the dad could def get an actual job. I would say that he could do his coaching thing after hours, but he's got 5 kids, so he would have to go home. I feel terrible for poor Mandy.
He just stopped his job to take on coaching. Why can’t he try it? It might give him more flexibility or even more money in the long run.
People who are on the poverty line get their kids taken away here?? That’s absolutely NOT true. Wow. In fact theres a documentary here on TH-cam called the breadline kids and was documenting poor kids being raised in America. The fact that you would fix your face to tell such bold face lies and use you being American to do so is crazy. Im American too(family has been here CENTURIES) and what you said is absolutely INCORRECT
Sophie gave this couple 'a good healthy shake' in life because they somehow feel 'comfortable' living off benefits. The husband doesn't do enough for such a big family. What shocked me is that he hires extra coach for his sessions wothout earning anything himself...
Sophie is totally smart. she asked them the average budget for the dinner and applied that during the shopping challenge. it is nice for them to keep encouraging her to do everything there.
Sophie is such a nice young woman. She has a better head on her shoulder than the father. They have a child because they want one with each other, he quits his paying job to do coaching and they expect the govt to pay for their selfishness. No empathy for these parents.
Sophie is a rich kid not just in money but also at heart. She got teary when that man started crying. She is empathetic and also trying to bring solutions that can better their lives
As an American this is wild. Youth sport coaching is a volunteer job we do outside of our fulltime employment. Two able bodied parent households don’t receive money each month - you’d have your kids taken away because you’d be unable to house and feed them. I’m considered wildly liberal and progressive in the States, for reference, and was really shocked to see Brits can choose to live like this and still be fed and housed.
you obviously have no experience with child welfare. You can even life in a car with your kids as long as they are clean and fed. LMFAO America does the exact same things....a bunch of drug addicts who weld guns, terrorize other countries and abuse kids more than any other country in the world. What child safety concern would these kids be taken away for? sharing a room? LOL the kids have 3 meals daily, clean close, beds, running water.
are u so vein u were unaware of welfare and food stamps in the USA
@@cathy2earth vein? Like a blood vessel? Yes in the US “food stamps” aka SNAP/EBT are for the poor and disabled, also medical coverage and even sometimes subsidized housing. In the States, no one qualifies for indefinite TANF for a two parent, non disabled household though. You sound incredibly ignorant about the US social programs.
@@cathy2earth Most US foster kids were removed due to poverty. It’s a whole thing here, Cathy. In the US, this family wouldn’t qualify for housing, food and monthly income and instead they’d be in a position to have their kids removed to foster care because they weren’t able to provide for them. It happens every day.
@@amyomeara2515 not true
To think Sophie was not keen abt the kids. Its seems like they knew her for a long time.
I like sophie's motivation ,i love when she's around with the kids breakfast in the morning bonding.She's a beautiful lady.
I think of all of the shows, Sophie is the kindest and the most open to learning about what it is like to not have the privilege that she has. The family was lucky to have her stay with them and not someone that would have been not so nice! They were also a very kind family, this was the best show so far and I hope they will have better days ahead financially.
Everybody seems so respecful to each other..what a lovely film..
The children only are worth the world ❤
They are grateful of each bite they put in their mouth , i love when little ones enjoy their food
Sophie seems like such a kind, down to earth, professional person. Love that she was very open and embraced the experience.
Every time they give them whatever for trips instead of money for their bills or groceries I want to literally cry. Are they only allowed to give them gifts like that and not help with bills and food?? 😭😭😭
I think its just to help with the literal stress of the that financial situation as well as taking care and being a solid parent for a lot of kids is not easy
The skint parents bills and groceries arent the rich kids problem. The skint parents need to figure it out, they cant get people paying for all their bills & groceries every week.
She gave him money to buy sports equipment for his "business".
Our economy is afflicted by uncertainty, housing troubles, foreclosures, global shifts, and the aftermath of the epidemic, all of which contribute to instability. To restore stability and drive growth, all sectors must urgently address rising inflation, slowing GDP, and trade disruptions.
The US dollar is losing value due to inflation, while other currencies are gaining strength, creating uncertainty. Nonetheless, many people remain confident in the Dollar's perceived safety. I'm concerned that my 420K retirement funds may lose value, therefore I'm looking for other financial stability.
With my stressful career, I don't have time for investment analysis. For seven years, a fiduciary has managed my portfolio, responding to market situations, ensuring for effective navigation and informed decisions. Consider taking a similar plan of action.
Do you mind if I ask you to recommend the coach you employed? It seems you've figured it all out.
My CFA, 'Leah Foster Alderman', is a well known figure in her field. I recommend looking into her qualifications further. She has extensive knowledge and is a treasure trove for anyone seeking to manage the financial markets.
She seems to be literate and well educated. Thank you for sharing, I found her webpage when I searched for her online.
They may be “Skint” but they are strong AF. I’d rather be loved and poor than to be ignored and rich. Love is priceless. Big up to the couple and Sophie ❤
Ok but why did they keep having kids anyways? I know they said that no matter what their happy, but poverty is a generational curse. What if your children had to go through this as well? Children deserve to be have security, especially in food.
yip and in a council house on benefits when there's an able bodied man who could work a job that pays... he could do his football thing AND work very easily.... what a joke. I know I'll quit my job and do this risky football thing where I don't know when I'm going to get a wage or even a living wage eventually.... and have 5 kids at home to feed.... yeah sure they're loving a nice family but work and earn your way out of poverty...
This was the best episode I’ve seen in this series.
Sophie seems nice. A bit out of touch and certainly genetically lucky, but empathetic and not judgemental.
Why would she do bootoxat 24. She looks way older
Botox 😂
I love her she wasnt rude to dem at all and she treated the kids so well awee
Sophie is wise beyond her years. . . Saying "eating healthy on a budget is difficult" is an understatement.
these kids are so lovely and cute - could cuddle them always :)
I really like how Sophia wasn’t rude or mean and she tried to put herself in the parent shoes. The mother in this episode (Mandy) was so sweet and for her to say it feels like I’ve known Sophie all my life and she’s family and all that was really lovely ❤
Kids are so well mannered and grateful.
"For someone who said she doesn't like children she is a natural"😂 i can relate. Kids always likes me, but i don't like them
That painting is the most beautiful thing ever
This is actually a cute loving family 🥰 the parents are very kind & positive, naturally well-behave kids with adorable genuine reactions. Sophie is a kind person with a quick ability of getting along & adjusted so well ✨ hope they always find happiness in life ✨
Great family and a great guest. Sophie doesn't realise that she'd be a great mother and the family really kind and warm.
Sophie is a very lovely lady and so is her mum. She is privileged but doesn't seem to think she's better than others like many other individuals from a privileged background.
AWWWWWW, SHE IS ONE OF THE NICEST RICH PERSON I’VE WATCH, AND HER ACTIONS SHOWS THAT SHE LOVES CHILDREN MORE THAN SHE REALIZED.
American here👋 when she said $60,000 in 8 months... she would be considered lower middle class in these parts
It's $76,000 USD, and I do understand your point.
But she doesn't have a mortgage or rent.... Plus the extra 750 month but I get it though 😂 not rich just ok.
@@dollz2030 Yeah, there are a couple "rich" kids that are simply middle-upper middle class
It’s her spending power though, her family are wealthy therefore she doesn’t need as much of an income, her money is almost all for spending so someone who makes more than her likely still wouldn’t have as much to spend as she would
American here 60grand in 8 months is Def upper middle idk where u are but in pa 120grand approx a year is good money
The family is really nice but the suffering in self-made!
This almost made me cry like 3 times😢 this was a great video
What a great prog. Very lovely people all, so genuine and nice. We have no money but we love each other, truly amazing. Sophie adapted really well and understood the situation this family is faced with. Stay happy and lovely, heart warming stuff
Sophie is full of humility ❤
She looks alot older than 24
What a lovely episode.
Interesting program. But Why, why please does one keep having children and there isn't enough income coming to the pot. Depending on benefits is not how one should be raising children. So where is that visitor going to sleep in a house that's already crowded? Will her view of life change when she leaves this family back to her life?
There family was amazing, what a hard worker he is an such an amazing mom she is might not have not much money but there rich with love ,something money can never buy, I hope he can learn from her business model and make some good profit using the internet connecting kids to soccer ,and hope she will miss the kids enough to want to have some of her own , what an amazing polite family God bless them all
The rich mom's hair! I can only imagine how much she must spend only to get that weird red/orange burned out frizz!
LOL
Stop judging others.
@@truthhearit1471 we all judge others- even you.
@cassandraknight8804 just because you can doesn't mean you should.
@@truthhearit1471 ok don’t then
When I was in elementary and middle school, I couldn’t even afford line paper or new pencils.
Totally non related to the content but i LOVE Sophie's moms hair!!!! 😍🧡❤️
This episode was so heartwarming. I really do hope they became friends or kept in touch.
All this show really does is put down the parents of the rich kid- Saying because they worked hard to make a lot of money to be able to give their children a stable and relaxing life, they failed their children. All of the rich kids i've seen so far have been well behaved, well mannered, amazing people. Asking the rich kids if they've learned any valuable lessons?? Skint parents saying they need to learn the real world and theyll show em what that is?? Why? They have their real world, an affluent one and a promising one. Maybe these skint parents could learn from the rich kids parents- how to work harder/smarter to make your kids lives better and more secure. This skint Mum needs to get a job. Some kids are in school, others off to daycare, doesnt have to be everyday. If they are on benefits they have access to cheaper child care fees.
This lady is very down to earth
Real eye opening to see how financially challenged people live. I hope that their life will take a turn. I would never be so brave to have multiple children without serious financial security. I do wear fashion with a price tag over 10,000 dollars , however I choose them carefully to ensure that the labels are not or less noticeable. I consider myself as a down to earth person with a simple but luxury lifestyle by choice. I don't think that this family would be so down to earth as I am if they would have my resources.
"I hate kids"
"I'd hate to have someone who hates kids. We got five"
Yeah right let's put them together
😢this is so beautiful ho we take alot of things for granted ❤❤❤ i love this family
Mandy is such a sweetheart 🥺
This episode was so cute proves were all the same no matter how much money we all have, all it takes is love and appreciation 🥰
Don’t have kids until you are financially stable to have them
Yeah cause once you're financially stable, you'll be stable forever. You don't know their previous situation. They could have been stable until something bad happened.
It is funny to read this (I am not laughing at you). Although I agree with you, I chose not to have children at all. I understand those who "love" kids, but the "what if" they were born with ____________(fill in the blank), always filled me with fear. (Note, I did not have a choice to be here.) I even went 10+ years not getting dogs because I could not afford them. (That was my biggest mistake.) If people thought like me, or you, the population would be decreasing!
God bless you, daddy, for loving your wife's kids and caring for your whole big family. You're not failing them. You have a good heart. God bless you and help your business big!
Loved how down to earth she was
This is the sweetest
Sophie is beautiful, and the family are beautiful too the kids adore her ❤ the mum and father are absolutely wonderful and kind
What? To get them “out of their financial trap”?…. He PUT THEM in it. Oh my 🤦🏼♀️
Stop having kids please, they dont deserve poverty. Also i dont want to be mean, why are poor people always overweight but rich people are always skinny 😢 i never understood it.
It uk thing. In my home country, rich people are overweight and poor people are skinny-ish and on correct weight. ❤
Poor ppl eat junk food, rich ppl eat fine n healthier food😊n got pte coach ,gym
Those kids are nice and well mannered because wth did Sophie cook 😂 and the raisins, who mixes raisins with rice, sausage and frozen vegetables 😂😂😂😂😂😂
A three course meal is a soup or salad, main, and dessert… am I wrong? I’m not rich, have had 5 courses at an Italian wedding.
If you go to an all you can eat restaurant, you can have as many courses as you like! 😂
3 course is a starters which can be different depending on the restaurant (i.e. Italian may be bruschetta, buratta etc.) then mains and dessert! 🫶🏼 in a wedding you get way less choice on the menu but it’s similar!
@@elanagiugno9270A starter and main usually suffice. I have to mention that I love burata.
@@pauljordan4452 it’s delicious! Depends on the restaurant for me, some of the more upscale places have such tiny little portions and I’m still hungry after haha
I thought the family would at least clean the house a bit if they knew a whole camera team be in their house and thousands of people would watch them.
Sophie was really sweet!
She needs to get regular rice and then they can season it themselves with spices in such maybe a little bra. It would be much cheaper that way and you’d have a lot more.
A little bra?
Why poor people have so much child's . Like stop 😑
Sophie is nice I like her
I don't want to be mean but the charging of 5 pounds a kid is stupid ..how will you make a profit ? That leaves him with an expense considering his living situation it sincs he hasn't thought the business through🤷🏾♀️he should charge more for goodness sake.
Beautiful video ❤
What sweet and kind children.
You can run the chicken under hot water for a little while and that will defrost it or soak them in hot water for a little bit and then you may have to re-soak again and again refreshing the hot water but that’s quicker
So glad to be a vegetarian 😅
Sophie and the kids are nice together !
Anyone else notice the fly on the dad's head?
Flys love bald heads
Yeah lmao
Sophie is very understanding and highly respectful. Everyone in this episode seems to be nice. Just a question though, did Sophie sleep with makeup on? Is that okay to do? I guess we all learn something new everyday :)
Shes so lovely even tho she comes from wealthy family, i feel like it would be the opposite if u try this for teenager theyll prolly act like brat
The grocery prices are sooooo cheap!!
Its hard to believe a family of 7 lives on almost the same income as i get on disability in canada. 😮
Uk is cheaper. Canada is expensive
Stop not the bug on his head lol😂
This is one of the best episodes.
Loved it!❤
Even the transition to skint is just a rich living way to my standards 😅😂😂
Because in Suriname 🇸🇷🤷🏾 this all wil just look like a big act 🎉
God bless us all equally please ❤
I don’t see why she would complain about anything. Unless she didn’t have to do any farm work, she did say she was raised on a farm. That’s some of the hardest work there is.
mom's sneaking food in somewhere
Sophie might be a bit spoiled but she isn't pretentious. Honestly the father and mother have worked themselves into poverty woth poor decisions, it is kind of amazing how much support they get from the government considering they could easily earn more.
They were happy family and left them miserable 😂
Sophie is not spoiled she is very kind and professional
