Awww!!! "Oh no!! You're not splitting up a sibling group. Bring them on over!!" I love that energy!!!! Can you imagine that conversation with her husband? 🤣😍🤣😍🤣
They just got two more teenager kids. Find a short announcing the hearing court… you’ll watch it several times. They have their own TH-cam channel.
God Bless this couple for giving all these children this loving home and life.
400 likes but no replies? Lol
A veg garden is ABSOLUTELYYYYY GRAND....THEY WILL ALWAYS BE ABLE TO GO GRAB A CUKE AT THE LEAST!!!!!
OMGGGGGGG RACHAELLLLLL THANK YOU FOR THAT 5000 BUCKS FOR FOOD FOR KIDS. AND THOSE KIDS ARE MY LIFE NOW...I WATCH THEM ALL THE TIME I LOVEEE THAT ENTIRE FAMILY.....I GREW UP WITH 10 KIDS AND KNOW THAT LIFE INSIDE AND OUT....ITS LIKE RELIVING MY LIFE!!!!!!im crying because i know how life was ..to be very little and worry about what if dad lost his job....we would have no food...and with so many kids. I lived that worry!!!!!
I had my children all single births in the first nine years. Hard work, but a blessing. My husband is now 90 and I am 88 and in pretty good health. Our kids keep us young at heart. We have 20 grandchildren and 28 great grandchildren.
What a blessing!
That is amazing 🥰
God bless you! ❤️😊 such a huge blessing
I really watching the Dougherty Dozen. I only stumbled across them a few months ago and was hooked. They’re true heart kind of people!
🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰
Now this lovely woman has 12 children (a temporary sibling unit) and is helping the adult sibling of one of her adopted babies get a house for their family! She is truly a wonderful human being! ❤
@Mizzlvdy No reason to be rude and her newest kids are through a kinship placement meaning they are not adopted and are only staying with them temporarily.
@Mizzlvdy When the woman is up at 5 making breakfast and lunch for a small army of kids, i dont think she is thinking about which children are adopted/fostered/temporary/kinship. She has a huge heart and wants the best for ALL of those children.
@Mizzlvdy she took in 2 other kids not shown in this video. But they're temporary
@Mizzlvdy after this was made her childhood friend ask her to take her 2 kids so she can get clean and take them back so they would not go into the system
@Mizzlvdy you must be so embarrassed. If you aren’t , you should be.
I love this mom ! Even when she had her family she kept the door open to those foster children. She and her husband are such a huge blessing to them.
Lydia Pica o:Warum soll sie erst Mama,und dann Mann für die Kinder sein?
@doughertydozen
she really deserved that $5,000 gift and many more!! She deserved everything! What a beautiful soul 🥺❤️🤍❤️🤍 inspiring❤️❤️❤️
That's a month of grocery shopping for their family, it's crazy 🤣
Exactly! She spends $600-$800+ a week!
@@soinlove6889 I was going to say the same thing😂
@@soinlove6889 she Sayed in a recent video she spends $1000 on groceries and an additional $300 for snacks
🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉
Just remember, nothing is as it seems.
Bless this woman and her husband for their generous hearts to be a blessing to these foster/adopted children. I used to be a foster care and adoptions caseworker, so this touched me in a special way. I don't know this couples' belief system, but it seems as if God said to them: Open your hearts and your minds first to the motherless and fatherless and I shall bless you with seed in your womb. I'm reminded that it pays to be forever faithful and forever grateful.
Amen🙌❤👑
AMEN! SO GOOD! GOD BLESS YOU WANDA! MUCH LOVE TO ALL MY BROTHERS AND SISTERS IN CHRIST! IN JESUS CHRIST MIGHTY POWERFUL NAME TRULY, AMEN! :)
I just looked into Alex's adoption story, and I was crying so hard the tears wouldn't stop pouring out of my eyes... Alicia is an angel
No she isn't. She's a horrible person.
Sitting here, sobbing. Thank you for giving these kids such a good life.
She is an amazing super mom!!!
Why? Because she feeds them loads of sugar? Candy and processed foods. They already have trauma and health issues and she's not helping them, just feeds them junk. AND she exploits them for money. These poor children will grow up to hate her for showing very private things about their lives for the whole world to see. She's told everyone in her other videos what is wrong with each child. No one needs to know their most vulnerable details. They get teased and bullied now. Amazing super mom my ass. She's gross
Congrats mama! You've earned it! I'm a mom of 9. It's a lot of work!
5k is only two grocery trips for that poor lady 😭😂
She may not realize it….but she’s one of the most fortunate women or earth!! To be mom to all those beautiful children and giving so much to the ones who were worrying and stressing about their food! I have tears of joy in my eyes!
Thank you to my fabulous and by far, favorite TV Chef…Rachael Ray! You have changed my life with your cooking show! I love you so much!! 😘❤️🥰 May God bless all of you!!
"Food is always available here"
🧡🧡🧡🧡🧡🧡
Yeah, garbage food. She does not feed the kids health. Lots of pop, boxed foods and ALOT of candy. These kids are all going to develop major health problems early in life. As you can see, some already have weight issues due to what she feeds them. I'm so sad for these children.
I just love how after every adoption she was blessed with a pregnancy then the best part was after she had Bodhi and Harlee she was blessed with not 1 child but 2 that were siblings close in age just like Harlee and Bodhi 😍😍😍😍🥲
God really blessed you. When you gave up and opened your heart, he fulfilled it more than you ever expected!
She's a horrible person
She didn't seem too happy about the $5000
Because she makes so much money exploiting her children online, 5k is nothing to her.
She spends half that on a meal now. 😮
Because she spends 4,000 on one trip to Walmart
@@gpr13martinez88 so? She should still be grateful that Rachel gave her free money. She didn't have to do that. Alicia is a greedy and entitled woman
This is coming off as extremely corny but like, she's a ray of sunshine. I've heard her preach about never judging food choices, respecting each of their kids' limits and needs but also being so thoughtful that she even pays attention to the small details like the way their kid likes to eat this or that, understanding how food is a constant for them, she's open about medicines for mental health... It's just a bliss to watch her, which is something I didn't expect of a church goer cause they do sometimes tend to be a little closer minded (not all, of course!!). The kids seem to be thriving, the parents seem awesome and I feel like they're going to grow up, watch these videos and realize just how awesome of a mom they have. Also, having 11 siblings in this world must be hella fun and comforting. You know they'll be there and so will you for them.
That's what I used to think until I realized she was sharing very personal stuff about the kids. A list of every single diagnosis (including low IQ), all the medications every kid takes, and even that one of them self-harms. There's also a few clips that suggest everything isn't quite so happy at home, like one of the little kids flipping someone off, the older kids talking about sex positions with the little ones, and the mom forcing one of the kids to cook something, saying that she doesn't care if they eat it, she needs it for the video. Apparently the kids say they're happy, but I really don't know what to think anymore.
@@toohottohandle0_0 Not doubting u just curious when did these things happen ? I'm a newer subscriber and haven't seen anything like that.I'm usually a sceptic when something seems to gd to be true. But I see nothing but a lot of love.
@Terry Russell Maybe a month or so ago? They deleted most of the original videos I mentioned, though they're probably in some of those xxx exposed videos. I believe she truly does care for the children, but sharing confidential information about minors is still a big no.
@@toohottohandle0_0 ty for replying.I agree about the minors
I do agree that some people at church maybe too strict or close-minded, but the Church doesn't teach you that. God wants children to be present in the kingdom of heaven. We have to be like children, good, kind, giving, caring... These are not characters that most close-minded people have. So, people who are close-minded and got to church weekly are not listeners. They are just there to hear and not listen in order to fill their duties and not learn. Hence, it is too general to call out all people in faith with such a stereotype that represents non-faithful duty filler individuals. Have a nice day!
Wow, this Mom can teach all parents how to properly feed their children. 👍👍👍
What a beautiful example of how to be the change and children are Gods greatest gift
She has her own channel called the Dougherty Dozen! She is truly an Angel. I love watching her videos. Inspiring is an understatement! 💜
Yes, I actually watch her content:
To everyone that left praising comments on this video, do you still support Alicia?
Alicia seriously makes me feel like I can accomplish anything with how hard she works. She is amazing!
God blees you for our childern gret mom & dad
Such a wholesome episode. Alicia is so deserving of this generous 🎁. She and her husband works so hard to ensure her kids' needs are met. ❤️❤️❤️
How you all share your love together, your family is wonderful!
God has blessed you because you took care of his children. He is faithful! Congratulations and thank you for what you do.
Alicia is a horrible mother.
This touched my heart to the core, being in foster care as a child and going threw it I can relate to these children. Lord bless there heart and home in Jesus Name 🙏🏾 ❤
She is such an impressive person, really admire her.
Alicia is a horrible person
Misleading title!! Adopted children are not foster children... They are now forever children and your very own children. Maybe I didn't understand but seems like all 10 are now their children and no foster children. Great family! Love it!!
I fell in love with Alicia and her family ❤️💥Thank you for feeding my soul ☀️
You are an amazing woman with an incredible husband, if only the world had more like you thank you
👎
I came here after subbing to them to know their story. This made me cry that they are so generous!!! God bless them!
I’m so aperciative to people who won’t let siblings be split up Bc I was separated from mine n it’s amazing
Half the reason I want to be a foster parent is so I can help keep siblings together.
I love how she has a set menu plan with chicken on mondays, always tacos 🌮 on Tuesdays, etc. That is a fantastic, time saving idea 💡 I’m using it! Lol Thanks for the idea and for being such a blessing to those kiddos 😊💜
Same! I only have 1 kid and I struggle cuz I’m just not creative! Her process is gonna make my life easier!
Such a heart touching story. So amazing that this couple struggled yet became so strong. The fact when they started adopting, they ended up having their own. And the fact that they kept calling her about taking in kids shows that they are very open people and will love to make their home feel welcomed to other kids is so beautiful. ♡ May God bless this woman and keep her safe!
And if people only realized, she exploits them for money. Poor children have no say in being in videos because she bribes them with material things to get them to do videos. She's shared their most private info with the world about every child's health issues and struggles. As much as talking about most of the children having fetal alcohol syndrome but yet her and her husband drink, not just socially in front of them. She even admitted she had to lock her alcohol in her bedroom because someone was stealing it. She meant her children. Wake up people! She does this for big $, not because she loves her children. She's made millions from youtube because people fall for this crap. But the family still lives in a house that's too small because she's too busy buying her children garbage food and all the latest and greatest gadgets to occupy them so they don't bother her
what an angel
I truly admire these parents. Every kids know they matter
Great Family for these children and she is wonderful.
What a inspiring story. Doctors said you would possibly not have children and here is higher power giving you gift you maybe never imagined, but it just come naturally. Life regarded you for good you give. World needs more moms and parent like you. 💕 all best wonderful mom!
It’s amazing to watch her make lunches and breakfast at the same time! This mother is amazing!!!
She’s a wonderful mom. The best mom 💖🙏🏽🥺💕💖
Imagine if every past abuse was followed by a mother who said - ‘I could turn the script around for them!’ ❤️
Wow. What an inspiring mama. ❤
I love them !! Only been watching a few months but I binged everything they have posted .We to are a foster to adopt family with two biological and four adoptions .We have had 21 kiddos thru our home .She gives me the motivation I need to get thru my day seeing what she does .She and Josh are amazing !!!
I think Alicia is a great mom ! Does she spoil her kids more then need be yes in my opinion but the love and patience she has is a gift to those kids! I pray blessings for them!
@@e93sports80 it’s been months since I posted this and unfortunately I have to agree with all the videos being made about her now.. so sad.. I had posted this when I had first found her videos.. did t take me long to change my mind tho..
@@Telldatroof ok
This woman is one of the most amazing people I've ever seen. I wish nothing but the best for this family!
I love Alicia!!! So glad you blessed her!!! Ty 🙌🏼🙌🏼🙌🏼💕💕💕
A pure example how love can transform everyone’s lives. A completely remarkable story and I do not have the proper words to describe how much I’m wishing them well. Children wouldn’t have near the struggles that they do if there were more parents like these in the world! Incredible!
Awe I'm crying too this is amazing💗 I love what she said about making food fun for her babies ... That is so beautiful. She has such a good heart❤
She's a horrible person
WOWOWOWOW MAY GOD CONTINUED TO BLESS HER 💝💝💝🌻🌻🌻🌻🙌🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️🥰🥰🥰🥰
She's a horrible person
I love the way she receives gifts.. no over the top fake reaction.. just sincerity! ❤️
You are a true hero. More families should learn from you. I love you!
What an extraordinary couple.
She is a wonderful person and so loving these children are so lucky!!
This woman and her family are a treasure. What amazing human beings!

Alicia is so humble I love her.
She really is an amazing woman im grateful that she adopted those foster kids.
God bless her and her family
Wow, what a diligent, loving and caring mom. She deserves a medal!
Idk why hearing about this family makes me cry of happiness, I absolutely love this family and this beautiful woman. They deserve the world! ❤️
5000 is probably one months grocery for them
God bless you for taking foster children I was a foster mother years ago very rewarding
Me too. Those "fosters" are now twin 24 year old young men. Adopting my sons was the best day of my entire life!
Omg I love her videos. I only have 2 kids, I couldn’t imagine 10! I love watching her make food for her kids- she’s so attentive to each child’s needs and has patience of a rock!
Just watched this video again. This lady is beautiful from the inside out 😢
this mom makes me cry. such an angel and a being full of light. her kids are so fortunate to be with someone so loving. i’m certain that the adopted kids will heal their trauma and her bio kids will never experience such awful things. she deserves the world.
This is so inspiring 💖 She is an amazing mom. A wonderful person. I love how she have the kids help in planning the menu. Also helping plant the garden 💚
I am absolutely hooked on this momma! I watch her all the time! This is a super hero without a cape! Bless her and her beautiful family! 😍
Brought me to tears, your family is so beautiful.
this girl is a true wonder woman!🥲🥲❤💗💖
God bless this beautiful soul. Such kindness and generosity.
You’re a great mother and great human being ❤️
She deserved it🙌She is a very good person. Bless all those Childrens, Amen♥️
They are such a beautiful family with great love and compassion. I applaud the parents and wish more people would also give love to those kids who don’t have parents or a family
You make me cry with your beautiful blessed family 🥺❤❤❤ pure love
I continue to be amazed and impressed by you and your husband... can't wait to see what you do next!!!
I don’t know if a more deserving family. Alicia, I seriously love you. You bring so much peace to my anxiety. You are a wonderful human being and the world sure could use more of you. 💗
You are wonderful parents,you and your husband deserve a vacation! Just you two!! You both have a heart of gold!
Watch this family daily..I get so much joy out other fixing the lunches..making sandwiches with each kids wishes..including the jelly only, the ketchup only..the cheeses,no cheese..the way the sandwiches are cut..then the assembly of the lunch bags..you could put it to music...
I’ve just come across Alicia’s channel & I’m ADDICTED ! It’s calming to see positive caring people do exist especially when you turn the tv on & see the horror’s that is going on or when you just go down the shops how horrible & evil people can be . They inspires me to get off my butt be a better person & contribute more ! Truly 💞👍🏻💞
What an amazing loving family. ❤
I love watching her ❤️ God bless her beautiful family
Wow I am just so touched and inspired by this beautiful mixed family. Not only have they adopted their foster kids but they also provide wholesome home cooked meals for them all, keep it up!
You are an amazing Mama and those children are so blessed to have you for their Mama💕😍🙏🏻
I just love her so much. She’s amazing!
God Bless you and your family. You and your husband are a blessing.
