Way too young. My boss’ daughter is 11 and she recently got her first phone, the older model, the XR. He said, nothing fancy until she’s 13. He has a point tho.
Geez, 12 IPhone 14s😳 for the littles too, holy cow, what a waste🤦🏻♀️IMO, I know that the littles will lose/break the phones without a doubt, hopefully they went the extra and got insurance in every one bc btwn breakage and loss it’s a lot, IMO, I’m just saying💁🏻♀️
It’s not even a waste as much as it is a safety concern. I cannot imagine these kids having access to devices with TT and TH-cam and socials. I get you can set parental controls but then what is the point of the phone?! There is I’ll always be a way yo get to the kids, and I work for a large cell provider in the USA and see it all the time.
@@erinIreland01 You’re right, I didn’t even think of that, thank you for bringing the topic of safety up, I appreciate it very much. I know that parents strive to give their children more than they may have had growing up however it appears after seeing many birthday celebrations and last Christmas gifting etc that these kids are substantially overwhelmed by all they receive and it looks like they’re not even appreciative of the expensive gifts etc, when is enough enough🤷🏻♀️ They all get spoiled and know that no matter what they ask for 9 times out of 10 they’re gonna get from these folks, it’s crazy to me. I see others comment abt the abundances they receive and there’s folks out here barely feeding their families, IDK what to think and I’m sure I’ll get quite a few people hating on me for saying my opinions but it’s true, there is a lot of waste here from food to clothes to gifting IMO🤷🏻♀️
@@angelacampana7058 yes very true to everything you said. Nobody should be hating on your because when you post your life on socials unfortunately it does open the door for us to have an opinion and we aren’t saying this stuff with malice we are saying it out of legit concern for the safety and well being of the kids. ❤️
@@erinIreland01 Thank you Erin so much for saying this bc I’ve been attacked in the comments in the past for stating my opinions and it can be very hurtful and I don’t feel as if I attacked here or anywhere to be honest, I’m just pointing out the obvious and noting my thoughts of it🤷🏻♀️ Thank you for being understanding, kind and also for seeing things as I have here as well. I hope you have a beautiful, healthy and happy holiday season, take good care♥️💫✨👼🏻✨💫♥️
What's obscene is the need to spew vitriol on someone who spends her own money the way she wants to. If only she stops stocking up her fridge with foods for her kids, stop spoiling them on their birthdays, stop buying them gifts, starve them to death and work them to the bone, she'll probably win your mom of the year award. 🤷🏻♀️😂
@@leitheflower You make no sense 💀 She would never starve those kids to death, what is wrong with you. She just doesn’t have to spoil them all the time. I’m grown now and I never got the stuff I wanted and I’m perfectly fine 🤷♂️
She can spend her money anyway they please! They both work and she obviously makes monetary amounts from her content! No one tells you how to spend your money do they? & even if you have a difference in opinion they can purchase what they choose too for their kids and home!
You bought that many phones with NEW numbers? That to me say's something is going terribly wrong if you all need new numbers and honestly do young children need phones? Such a scary thing to give little kids. I hope people who watch this are not envious of this, it's a lifestyle they cannot keep up with and will eventually blow up in their faces, especially when America is headed for a depression.
He's going to be even happier when he tries the food both on the floor and at the snack bar. I use to work at Costco years ago and am also a member . I love shopping at Costco .

@@charliemartin6862 jealousy? Lmao, this is not even close to jealousy. It’s being realistic when spending money for important things to you know, survive… And not just materialistic things.
I'm actually shocked at the obscene amount of time you spend creating troll accounts. What a hateful human being you are. How tragic it is you have nothing better to do with your life. 😢
@@leitheflower , Girl, You need to chill. You don’t know this family at all. Why are commenting on every single differing opinion? Alisha 100% knew buying all those phones would bring in the criticism, it’s the reason she does it. If she isn’t pushing the boundaries to bring in criticism, she won’t have any attention at all which equals NO MONEY! It’s all about the money
Oh my gosh! Your Costco is sooo less crowded than ours. Even on a non-holiday (early or late) you can barely get your cart around all the other carts and peeps. And that tree is gorgeous! I can't wait to see it set up. Also... the look on Josh's face when he saw the arcade game is priceless! Love your content! Keep up the great work. ~ Hugs and Merry Christmas.
Some of your kids are too small for iPhones do they have to earn their iPhones or do they just get it because they weren’t you have to make sure you’re teaching your kids to earn things because they come from broken down backgrounds they need to learn that hard work pays off and that they’re never going to be a product of their environment but they have to work For it
I think we don't know what some of these kids went through before joining their family so who are we to judge. Some kids who have been through the Foster care system just need a nice home who will let them be kids.
Not for you to decide. They have chores and now days it's easier for a mom with 12 kids and a busy family to be able to reach her kids and have them reach her.
They have been waiting to be hooked up to the cities sewer lines but the city hasn't done that yet. They cant control how long it takes to get it hooked up.
money can't buy you class.She is classless just used her children for money should be taken away from this women.Someday all the kids will talk about what really goes on behind close doors
Any tips on a REALISTIC Christmas for foster parents/adopted parents/large families struggling? Not everyone has 20 grand to drop In a day? Or it's not your vibe?
Shop in your price range-you don’t have to spend a lot of money to have a nice Christmas. Great for her that she can afford it, no need to emphasize that not everyone has that kind of money, she is not showing off or encouraging you to do the same as her
@Alexandra Ionescu oh we make great Christmas memories. But she's.....definitely showing off. Lol. Shes putting it on the internet lol and literally hoping we all watch so she can afford to do it more. I mean she can do as she pleases it's her money. Tbh it just seems little tone deaf considering what's going on in the world currently
@@justhereforthevideos2798 what’s going on in the world is not her fault and sure not her responsibility. we have elected politicians to take care of that. If people wouldn’t be interested in this type of content they wouldn’t watch,right? since she has a substantial number of views it means that people are interested so why not keep making content? Let’s blame and question the people who are really at fault for our struggles, not mothers who take care of their children and can afford to spoil them. We would do the exactly the same or even more if we had the means, let’s not be hypocrites. What’s stopping you from not watching her videos honestly, if you feel like this is putting money into her pockets?
@Alexandra Ionescu I don't watch most of them now tbh. I find it distasteful. And thats ok. I'm allowed my opinion. See, we elected officials to ensure we have the freedoms to voice our reactions and opinions about people who post their content publicly 😀 and I never said she's responsible for anything. Just that it's done deaf. Which it is. You can keep defending her like u know her in real life, that's your prerogative 🤷♀️ but don't act like it's ridiculous for people to question this kind of content lol
@@justhereforthevideos2798 Of course,totally agree with you on the last part. Still, let’s be kind to each other, there is already enough hatred, envy and judgment in the world. And I’m not defending her, I’m just expressing my opinion freely, just like you😀 I also didn’t say that it’s ridiculous to question this type of content, I believe you might be misintepreting my words. I respect your opinion and i think this is the key here- being respectful and considerate no matter the circumstances. we can express our disagreement without pointing fingers or judging

❤You should get the kids beddys bedding. It’s a bed comforter that has a zipper! Perfect for the littles and the teens. They could make their beds in 10secs ❤
When you show yourself spending this much money on bull crap for kids who all already have this crap. ($20,000.00 + for those who didn’t do the math) Why don’t you add in clips of you donating to Toys For Tots or any other foundation??
Several stores will have things (especially electronics and expensive clothes) that have 2 barcodes:a supplier code and a store code. Helps with security. That might be what it is. Especially as they went through security at the door who would probably have noticed too.
@@apricothopeful3510 I can understand that but if there were two bar codes then she would have scanned two bar codes. She scanned the same one twice. And they didn’t check anything very well there. Man at our Costco they count and look at every little thing. But I don’t know I was just looking out.
Yesssss i laughed at both of you trying to get the boxes in lolololol it was soooo funny you guys are perfect for each other. We love all you do and. How you manage this whole family.....DONT EVER.

@@melindahaiden Maybe in your area? I'm still waiting for my town to replace the chunk of my curb they dug out in August. Haha. Let's not be so quick to assume or judge. We really don't know so let's let it go.
@@hoosierladyus48 I live on a property with a well and 2 septic tanks. Our neighbor only has one tank. A crew of workers he hired to do some work drove too many pieces of heavy machinery in and out and cracked his septic tank. He replaced it very quickly but fortunately he wasn't living on the property yet. Didn't take a full year for the county to hook him back up but it was at least 6 months. These things vary from state to state and county to county. How long things take are a budget matter. Plenty of budget cuts across the nation have resulted in understaffing which results in longer wait times. So screech as long and loud as you want but it won't make you right and them wrong. It just makes you sound unhinged and ignorant.
Why do you care so much? You’ve commented 6 separate times on 6 separate videos. If you don’t like their way of parenting why are you watching their videos and taking the time out of YOUR day to comment when they’re most likely not going to read it anyway.
You spent over $1000 on Naveah's mattress, but James gets a crappy foam topper mattress 🤨 Seriously ? I get N is one if your little money makers, but Jc. James is your freaking son. Stop treating him like the red headed stepchild.
instead of watching the video to judge and demonstrate that who knows what mistreatment takes place in that house .. on a shopping video do you think you can judge how many goods are given to one child rather than another? it's not the truman show movie being filmed around the clock how can you judge by a few minutes of video? what if they took other gifts and forgot to film? and anyway who are you to make the accounts in the pocket of any family?
I am sitting her ... shaking my head ... you bought am apple 14 i phone for a 4 year old ... what does a child that young need with a phone??? plus ... all the other kids under 12 do not need any kind of phone
But if you buy iPhones for everyone they are going to learn how to use social media and then your kids can see everything hate they talk about your own family, it will affect them 😭
That’s my concern too. So many comments have mentioned that the little kids will misplace or break them, but the real danger is that they’re going to have unlimited and unsupervised access to the internet.
Great video, and well done on the aim for healthy eating. Does this mean no more McDonald’s, donuts, chips, bacon and sausages for breakfast each day? What are your going to replace it with? Good luck
Mine was given to me from a friend that bought a new phone for 1000 bucks.....i love it.....at least i have a phone... But nooo way would i complain about them getting phones for the kids......im glad they are able to. And probably its more to be able to contact each other with so many kids and so many places they all have to be.....i love the love the parents show all the kids.....the love they do...
I always find myself watching your videos but I gotta say, wow, the newest iPhone 14 pro max model for every kid? Aren't the youngest ones like 4 years old, am I misunderstanding? Maybe they're extremely responsible yadda yadda but what 4 year old even cares if they have the newest iPhone 14 pro max... not to mention the higher risk for damage/dropping/losing it. Lots of your videos I love because they seem really genuine and down to earth but this one just seemed like a wealth flex.
I think it's probably for themselves or someone else. One of their girlfriends? Another relative? I absolutely refuse to believe they bought a 4 year old a phone. An iPhone at that.
Why would you comment on what someone else does with their money ? Clearly you are interested in her videos since you watch the entire video just to comment at the end .
I love your content and you can see you and your husband go the extra mile for all your kids. We need more people like you in the world to take on these children that don’t have loving families.
@@jaquelyngears1359 and why exactly do you care about what someone else is doing with their own money? did she ask you for that money? great for her that she can afford all of that- if we had that money we would have done the same, let’s not be hypocrites people

Geez, 12 IPhone 14s😳 for the littles too, holy cow, what a waste🤦🏻♀️IMO, I know that the littles will lose/break the phones without a doubt, hopefully they went the extra and got insurance in every one bc btwn breakage and loss it’s a lot, IMO, I’m just saying💁🏻♀️
I was thinking the same thing too but, she do got a iPad
It’s not even a waste as much as it is a safety concern. I cannot imagine these kids having access to devices with TT and TH-cam and socials. I get you can set parental controls but then what is the point of the phone?! There is I’ll always be a way yo get to the kids, and I work for a large cell provider in the USA and see it all the time.
@@erinIreland01 You’re right, I didn’t even think of that, thank you for bringing the topic of safety up, I appreciate it very much. I know that parents strive to give their children more than they may have had growing up however it appears after seeing many birthday celebrations and last Christmas gifting etc that these kids are substantially overwhelmed by all they receive and it looks like they’re not even appreciative of the expensive gifts etc, when is enough enough🤷🏻♀️ They all get spoiled and know that no matter what they ask for 9 times out of 10 they’re gonna get from these folks, it’s crazy to me. I see others comment abt the abundances they receive and there’s folks out here barely feeding their families, IDK what to think and I’m sure I’ll get quite a few people hating on me for saying my opinions but it’s true, there is a lot of waste here from food to clothes to gifting IMO🤷🏻♀️
@@angelacampana7058 yes very true to everything you said. Nobody should be hating on your because when you post your life on socials unfortunately it does open the door for us to have an opinion and we aren’t saying this stuff with malice we are saying it out of legit concern for the safety and well being of the kids. ❤️
@@erinIreland01 Thank you Erin so much for saying this bc I’ve been attacked in the comments in the past for stating my opinions and it can be very hurtful and I don’t feel as if I attacked here or anywhere to be honest, I’m just pointing out the obvious and noting my thoughts of it🤷🏻♀️
Thank you for being understanding, kind and also for seeing things as I have here as well. I hope you have a beautiful, healthy and happy holiday season, take good care♥️💫✨👼🏻✨💫♥️
WHY DO YOU NEED 12 IPHONES?!?!?! STOPPPP!!!
Cause she can afford it
She has 12 kids
@@jerelihamilton7861 kids under the age of 11 or 12 dont need phones. is she seriously buying $1000 phones for 7year olds?
I find it obscene the amount of money you spend. Really? Do all 12 kids need the newest iPhone? It's like you're flaunting your wealth.
And...
What's obscene is the need to spew vitriol on someone who spends her own money the way she wants to. If only she stops stocking up her fridge with foods for her kids, stop spoiling them on their birthdays, stop buying them gifts, starve them to death and work them to the bone, she'll probably win your mom of the year award. 🤷🏻♀️😂
@@leitheflower Calm down! The only person spilling vitriol is you. Money doesn't buy love, just so we're clear.
@@leitheflower You make no sense 💀 She would never starve those kids to death, what is wrong with you. She just doesn’t have to spoil them all the time. I’m grown now and I never got the stuff I wanted and I’m perfectly fine 🤷♂️
She can spend her money anyway they please! They both work and she obviously makes monetary amounts from her content! No one tells you how to spend your money do they? & even if you have a difference in opinion they can purchase what they choose too for their kids and home!
You bought that many phones with NEW numbers? That to me say's something is going terribly wrong if you all need new numbers and honestly do young children need phones? Such a scary thing to give little kids. I hope people who watch this are not envious of this, it's a lifestyle they cannot keep up with and will eventually blow up in their faces, especially when America is headed for a depression.
Please tell me you haven’t got a phone for a 6 and 4 year old dear lord 😞

Does the littles really need phone?
It's their business.
Oh my gosh! Your Costco is sooo less crowded than ours. Even on a non-holiday (early or late) you can barely get your cart around all the other carts and peeps. And that tree is gorgeous! I can't wait to see it set up. Also... the look on Josh's face when he saw the arcade game is priceless! Love your content! Keep up the great work. ~ Hugs and Merry Christmas.

How can you afford all the iPhones? Why do they need a new phone if the old one are ok. What will they do when they are older or if everything vanish
im sorry but what 10 year old needs a 1000 dollar phone
Do harlee and bohdi get an I phone 14 also?? I'm confused 🤔🤔🤔🇮🇪
Some of your kids are too small for iPhones do they have to earn their iPhones or do they just get it because they weren’t you have to make sure you’re teaching your kids to earn things because they come from broken down backgrounds they need to learn that hard work pays off and that they’re never going to be a product of their environment but they have to work For it
👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
I think we don't know what some of these kids went through before joining their family so who are we to judge. Some kids who have been through the Foster care system just need a nice home who will let them be kids.
Not for you to decide. They have chores and now days it's easier for a mom with 12 kids and a busy family to be able to reach her kids and have them reach her.
That was a long run on sentence
I know I white the way I talk
Instead of phones and giant shopping hauls, why not spend that money to get the septic tank fixed?
Seriously!
They are waiting on people to come do it.
They have been waiting to be hooked up to the cities sewer lines but the city hasn't done that yet. They cant control how long it takes to get it hooked up.
@@cheeka7723 you can contact someone above the city and they will get it done you just have to have the right contacts

12 phones?
Does Bodhi & Harlee use phones too?

Any tips on a REALISTIC Christmas for foster parents/adopted parents/large families struggling? Not everyone has 20 grand to drop In a day? Or it's not your vibe?
Shop in your price range-you don’t have to spend a lot of money to have a nice Christmas. Great for her that she can afford it, no need to emphasize that not everyone has that kind of money, she is not showing off or encouraging you to do the same as her
@Alexandra Ionescu oh we make great Christmas memories. But she's.....definitely showing off. Lol. Shes putting it on the internet lol and literally hoping we all watch so she can afford to do it more. I mean she can do as she pleases it's her money. Tbh it just seems little tone deaf considering what's going on in the world currently
@@justhereforthevideos2798 what’s going on in the world is not her fault and sure not her responsibility. we have elected politicians to take care of that. If people wouldn’t be interested in this type of content they wouldn’t watch,right? since she has a substantial number of views it means that people are interested so why not keep making content?
Let’s blame and question the people who are really at fault for our struggles, not mothers who take care of their children and can afford to spoil them. We would do the exactly the same or even more if we had the means, let’s not be hypocrites. What’s stopping you from not watching her videos honestly, if you feel like this is putting money into her pockets?
@Alexandra Ionescu I don't watch most of them now tbh. I find it distasteful. And thats ok. I'm allowed my opinion. See, we elected officials to ensure we have the freedoms to voice our reactions and opinions about people who post their content publicly 😀 and I never said she's responsible for anything. Just that it's done deaf. Which it is. You can keep defending her like u know her in real life, that's your prerogative 🤷♀️ but don't act like it's ridiculous for people to question this kind of content lol
@@justhereforthevideos2798 Of course,totally agree with you on the last part. Still, let’s be kind to each other, there is already enough hatred, envy and judgment in the world.
And I’m not defending her, I’m just expressing my opinion freely, just like you😀 I also didn’t say that it’s ridiculous to question this type of content, I believe you might be misintepreting my words. I respect your opinion and i think this is the key here- being respectful and considerate no matter the circumstances. we can express our disagreement without pointing fingers or judging
i'm surprised you were allowed to film there because you're not allowed to film in Costco..
Wrong. You are allowed to video in Costco.

Haha okay @@hoosierladyus48 , whatever you say
@@hoosierladyus48 I live on a property with a well and 2 septic tanks. Our neighbor only has one tank. A crew of workers he hired to do some work drove too many pieces of heavy machinery in and out and cracked his septic tank. He replaced it very quickly but fortunately he wasn't living on the property yet. Didn't take a full year for the county to hook him back up but it was at least 6 months. These things vary from state to state and county to county. How long things take are a budget matter. Plenty of budget cuts across the nation have resulted in understaffing which results in longer wait times. So screech as long and loud as you want but it won't make you right and them wrong. It just makes you sound unhinged and ignorant.

Well she has to do something for people to talk about.
instead of watching the video to judge and demonstrate that who knows what mistreatment takes place in that house .. on a shopping video do you think you can judge how many goods are given to one child rather than another? it's not the truman show movie being filmed around the clock how can you judge by a few minutes of video? what if they took other gifts and forgot to film? and anyway who are you to make the accounts in the pocket of any family?
I am sitting her ... shaking my head ... you bought am apple 14 i phone for a 4 year old ... what does a child that young need with a phone??? plus ... all the other kids under 12 do not need any kind of phone

2 shopaholics perfect for eachother
But if you buy iPhones for everyone they are going to learn how to use social media and then your kids can see everything hate they talk about your own family, it will affect them 😭
Lets hope she has put certain restrictions on the phones so they can't do that. But knowing her, she wouldnt care
That’s my concern too. So many comments have mentioned that the little kids will misplace or break them, but the real danger is that they’re going to have unlimited and unsupervised access to the internet.
Great video, and well done on the aim for healthy eating. Does this mean no more McDonald’s, donuts, chips, bacon and sausages for breakfast each day? What are your going to replace it with? Good luck

12 iphone14? Come on now
I always find myself watching your videos but I gotta say, wow, the newest iPhone 14 pro max model for every kid? Aren't the youngest ones like 4 years old, am I misunderstanding? Maybe they're extremely responsible yadda yadda but what 4 year old even cares if they have the newest iPhone 14 pro max... not to mention the higher risk for damage/dropping/losing it. Lots of your videos I love because they seem really genuine and down to earth but this one just seemed like a wealth flex.
