      Evelyn, yes, really. The larger cities have had an 8 year waiting time. The government here isn't interested in really helping people when it comes to certain aspects. Remember that the UK, it's about the wellbeing of the population. Here it's about worrying about yourself.

      When the environment you've been used to for multiple years is completely altered, shock will hit hard, even if that environment was uncomfortable. Change is hard, especially when it's all cleared out in just one day. And when you have a compulsive hoarding disorder, the shock and grief is immensely more difficult to get through. We clean our rooms and are able to cope easily with the new environment, but it's just not that easy for someone who is a compulsive hoarder. I think that the support from her family and professionals, as well as seeing how the children blossom as a result of the cleaner living space, will all help her get through the grief that she's experiencing.

    I am so glad the kids have a better environment now! That was horrific. I do not understand why the daughter, when she had her own place, did not just throw all of her items out and bomb the place numerous times instead of stop paying the rent? Then keep it really clean with bug traps or constant exterminator visits. She could of even contacted legislator on slum landlord, but you don't just paying the rent until you can do better. That just seem like excuses to me. I would have did extended stay in hotels before living there.

    Nope. If I knew I had to move in there with my babies I would have been over there cleaning the month before! I’ve had to stay with family members years ago. I cleaned their houses. I loved my children and could never let them stay somewhere like that. Trust me when I tell you I’ve had to clean some pretty gross places in order to make a good environment for my children. And yes I was working full time as well 🙏🏼

    Sometimes I feel like people become hoarders out of laziness. It's like being in debt for a long time, you know you owe money but don't care to pay it back after a while because you dug yourself in hole so deep it's hard to recover.

      Not with this family, but many hoarders end up attaching themselves to things due to a trauma and they can’t deal emotionally. It’s so sad either way though. To feel so lazy and depressed that you lose self worth to live like this.

      I understand he lives with his mom but they can literally combine their income in order to move out together and with clean space for their kids. He kind of brushes it off like "oh well". Sometimes people have to do what is necessary for a short period of time and seeing how he isn't even really a caretaker of his kids, he can afford to have 2 jobs temporarily.
