Was anyone else really annoyed when that woman kept trying to push more sweets on the girl while mom kept saying "no, just the one". "Oh but it is almost Christmas", "can she take some more home?". The mother said no, it's a no. Of ALL places to understand that this girl doesn't need any more sweets and respect the mother, the physician's office should be that place.
I agree. That lady was VERY rude.
Yep that fucking PISSED ME OFF.
yup omg that annoyed me like don't you understand woman?!
ThatsSoNathan pls come back making videos
she shouldn't have any tbh
Why in the hell would the nurse offer Rebecca sweets? Damn enabler.
.
That poor mother! she's there because she needs help! that nurse hasn't a clue, and is trying to make the mother seem like the bad guy.
I know, that nurse could see the little girl was way overweight and should have not underminded the girl's mother like that. duh.
Kaitlin Grey lmao ikr
Kaitlin Grey serisosly right???
Katie is so blessed to have her father. He fully understand her disease and he knows exactly what will happened if he can't control her weight. He does everything to keep his daughter alive. So amazing man.
As a parent of young kids, I’m overwhelmed by how intelligent and persevering he is. Truly amazing. (but I have a conflict within what if he allowed her to enjoy foods without limitation? How about her dignity to live on her own way despite the life span?)
She passed away late 2022
@@daviddasilva8383 how do you know?
@@daviddasilva8383oh no 😢
@@daviddasilva8383Shit man, rip
I give Katie’s parents so much credit. Their remarkable co-parenting relationship and effort is what helped her be so smart and independent.
I’m not convinced that either parent understands how to live a low calorie lifestyle.
They’re clearly going well over their standard 2k a day.
@@BeckBeckGoactually that is likely not true. I grew up with a girl with PWS and our families were very close. People with PWS can gain weight on as little as 600 calories a day. It’s easier for parents to control as a child, but as they grow up and gain some independence, they can’t be watched constantly. That’s when they can eat in secret, and is so much harder to control x
@@BeckBeckGoyou have to consider stress and time. parents tend to look after others and neglect themselves
@@BeckBeckGo Ignorant comment.
@@BeckBeckGo Her limit is 900 calories a day. She has plenty of time to 'cheat', as her father says, and he can't watch her 24 hours a day. Especially when both of them work full-time.
that adult son... Authorities should step in to save that family. Take him away. Because sooner or later his parents will get seriously hurt by him.
+randomxxdinosaur ur profile fits so much ur comment😂
+mirta000 Well than how please kick him out? Who will take the time to look after him
F. Moussa already told you, there are institutions for that. They should have called social services and said that they're afraid for their lives. There are mental institutions specializing in this disorder and their son could live there, instead of trying to eat himself to death at home.
+mirta000 thank you. get him the hell out before he hurts someone in the house. that's what those caretakers get paid for.
I believe it is the government that is contributing to this mans issues. Why are they giving him money to spend as he pleases? Don't they realize he has a serious issue?
Sachin needs to be taken out of that home for the safety of his own family. I’d be miserable if I had to live with him. He seems so damn nasty.
I was thinking that too...he might be dangerous to his family with his attitude like that...i think it's not a crime if he wud be locked up for his own health benefits as well as his for his family...
Hes out of control
I think this, too. The first look at him shows the pure violence in his eyes - this has nothing to do with his PWS = THIS GUY IS VERY DANGEROUS !!! His family would not have a single chance to escape from him, if he'll attack them ... for sure his mum says he needs love - but sometimes love should be tough ... poor family !!
You are right - but nevertheless he seems to be very very violent and dangerous ... for sure it's the family who has to deal with this > but I am scared !! I hope they find a way to be safe ...
@@phoenixskyblue4940ep and they have allowed these tantrums just like Rebecca's parents they could have taught them respect
The sachin guy is honestly just a bully. His whole family lives in fear of him. What a way to show respect for those who care and love you buddy
He’d be getting a good bashing from me! I’m a bodybuilder and I don’t give a f if he’s disabled! If he was my son and he dared treat me like that, he’d be on the ground with his front teeth missing! That’ll teach him not to f with me!
@@benjaminfranklinthe180th4 not the greatest way to treat someone with a mental disability and it wouldn’t correct his behaviour as he cannot help it
@@benjaminfranklinthe180th4 On your side 100%. That's disgusting of the kid to abuse the family who tries their best to care for him.
@@benjaminfranklinthe180th4 Yeah, of course you would 😂
You guys can't judge him,he has a disability and he can't control it,most kids and adults with these types of conditions are annoyed and angry about this.And for those of you that say you would beat him if he treated you like that,you are disgusting,if he was your son and you were living with him you would not do that because you know he has a disability and it is not in his control.I am speaking from knowing people with it but if you were not too quick to judge you would understand how hurt these people are
Prayers for sachins mother. A good mother with a hard son. Never stop loving him but if he’s happier in a care home, they should consider that.
He went missing back in August of 2020 but luckilt he was found safe. And he's now 41.
I wonder what happened to his parents. They seemed nice.
@@julissar.5878 whaaaaat? he only looks like an older teen. his parents look even younger.
I agree he needs a home before he hurts them he may be a child in he's brain but he's got body and strength if a men.
Shame on that nurse! When a parent says ONE she means ONE.
Alliee D awwweee, you can't blame her for trying to be nice. She's the nice grandma type
I think she was a cleaner or maybe a care assistant.Many hospital staff don't/won't listen to parents.
She was disrespectful!
She was only trying to be nice. Give her a break!
@@flossie5432 Yeah probably a care assistant though I doubt she knew of her condition hence why she said what she said sadly.
Why do they always give the worst haircuts to mentally challenged people? I's like a signature cut for the group
Gypsy Jena lol
My guess would be that it's the hair that the person wants.
Gypsy Jena it's because shorter hair has easier maintenance for the caregiver and for the person who wants the independence of taking care of themselves in some way.
Its a connection to North Korea
I use to have short hair and I agree it is easy to maintain
I met a mom with 11 year twins with PWS. We were hiking in Hawaii and gave them a short ride to the trail. The mom kept her daughters ACTIVE swimming and hiking to help combat the negative effects of the disorder. She was a lovely mom with difficult conditions
both of them with PWS ?
@@yuedu1384 it makes sense, if they were identical twins what one has the other will have too.
sad 😢@@skyes7369
I don’t like how you’ve emphasised active as if that’s the cure. Most of them have low muscle tone and can’t do much, they also are uncontrollably hungry 24/7, they cannot ever control themselves around food and see non-edible items out of hunger. It’s a lot more complicated.
Most people with PWS have very poor muscle tone and coordination. These twins must have had some other ailment
Katie is an amazing positive young lady, she is aware of how her condition affects her and tries so hard to stick to her food plan. It’s inevitable that she slips from time to time though sadly.
I was very impressed by her as well.
I read somewhere that she passed away 😢
Katie I'd amazing young lady she's very sweet lovely lady
@@user-wh3xj6rx6r this breaks my heart
@@user-wh3xj6rx6rYeah. Katie passed away late 2022
One of the real issues here is the nurse handing out treats... Her ignorance is paramount.
Lukifer....At her age She must be a volunteer, a nurse knows better .........
Once the mother said "only one" she should have taken the hint but she continued to argue with the mom which is when I had a problem with her continuing to offer treats.
I'm pretty sure this was filmed in the 80's and I'm certain nurses wouldn't be able to give sweets at all now...!!!
H Mc 🤣😂 this was in 2005
She's probably trying to give sugary treats to the diabetic kids too lol
I thought the title said *I can't stop eating my child*.
CrazyBananas LOL 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

For those wondering, in August 2020 Sachin Vyas went missing, but was later found alive and safe by the police. He is now 41. This is the latest piece of information about him online.
Wow he lost so much weight!
I’ve just realised that this guy lives near me, he lives in my town!
@@Rebecca_Bailey Woah :00 and how is he? do you know?
Perhaps he just decided to leave and not tell his family. He doesn't treat his family well & it's sad to see how they live like prisoners in their own home.
he lost so much weight and seems to have cowritten quite a few scientific papers with Soumendra Mohanty
Such a cruel disease. It truly is like a drug addiction. I'd love to see a follow-up on these courageous people including their families.
Bet that sadly, none is still alive.
There’s no known cure for Prader-Willi syndrome, but the solution to the problem is growth hormone injections
@@lisamcdonald1014solution implies cure. HGH can help because it keeps the muscles at a higher tone meaning that they don’t gain weight as easily (eg like Katie here who has a 900 calorie a day limit). It doesn’t help the constant hunger though.
It is cruel, but it also affects the whole family, marriages, safety even…
@@kathrynwitte3398 What???
A lot of real tragic haircuts in this
Geraldine Hughes 🤣🤣🤣

Hot damn!
Geraldine Hughes omg I was watching the video and was really sad but you just cheered me up ahahahah
Geraldine Hughes how can you find smthg to laugh at looking at this....so childish...smh😕😕😕
Sachin's family deserve better they are so nice and caring
He needs to go asap
Sachin deserves better, he doesn't have the ability to be nice and caring. I understand, and agree, but it isn't fair, he can't control it.
@@tyler.andujar there's a difference between not being nice and caring and being a violent and abusive bully who physically attacks his own mother.
@l p BECAUSE HE HAS PRADER-WILLI SYNDROME. i get it, hes annoying, hes rude and ALL of that BUT he has a genetic disability. it isnt about being enabled and or spoiled. he is mentally and physically unable to control it. this isnt even the "addiction is a disease" argument (which the sicence isnt 100%) this is a true genetic disability. google it. read. educate yourself.
@Diane Stevens Yes and locked up right for it.
I was in a special ED program with someone with Prader Willis Syndrome (I have Autism+Adhd). She did a lot of crafting when she wasn't at her program assigned job. We'd often ride home together. She was one of the kindest people I have ever gotten the pleasure of knowing. She moved on to a different program for older young adults while I stayed in my current program and am now in the process of starting college. I still think about her some times, and this documentary reminded me of her.
sweet
Poor Sachins Parents. Im sending them a hug for all their efforts and love. I know its not Sachins fault but he perhaps needs full time help. A very moving documentary😢.
The parents seemed like a nice couple
I really wanna give a big hug the Indian mom she looks so sad, imagine having your kid blame you for a genetic condition as a mother you would feel responsible and guilty
He should have come out in her period, he's nasty inside and out.
@@diiamondz9144 Oh wow, I am truly proud of your accomplishments and where you have come♥️, also i am sorry to hear the abusive part💔
Crabby crab
He’s a disgusting excuse for a human, inside and out.
Ikr it’s 😔 sad
Katie’s Dad is such a good dad !!
I really hate how they paint Sachin's behavior as just PWS. It paints others with it as horrible people who cannot control their emotions at all. Literally threatening to SUE your mother for a genetic condition you were born with, putting hands on family, and the other verbal abuse can't be excused just because he's disabled. You can be disabled and still a narcissistic POS on the side.
I agree Sachin's behavior is wrong, but he likely doesn't have the mental capacity to evaluate right from wrong. He behaves that way because his family allows it and it gets him what he wants.
⁰
Exactly, especially his drinking. He needs behavior management or he will hurt them!!!
@@marywynne7931 he can clearly communicate and understand definitions of words as well as legal processes like suing. He's absolutely capable of evaluating his behavior and empathizing with others, he just doesn't want to because he is a bad person.
@atlaskat7980 The mental processes used to evaluate word definitions are far different from the ones used to empathize and regulate one's behavior. While I agree he should he held accountable for his behavior, consequences need to be swift and short-term. No point turning a mentally-disabled person into a career criminal.
This is obesity that is completely undeserved and tragic, it’s so sad to watch her eat mainly vegetables and fruit and still be at a massive weight. Big respect to them for resisting food
She would sneak food and admitted to doing so
"I'm gonna sue my mom, for all the abuse that she's been giving me."
I can't believe him.
I feel so sorry for that family, it's a lose-lose situation.
azbass Of course it is. He really doesn't know how to handle his anger. He should realize he has a disability where he's hungry all the time and take control of it. He can see that his parents are doing all the best they can, I'm sure. He's just using his temper-tantrums to get his way.
Purple Nurple
i agree, i think hes fully aware of his tactics and tantrums and uses it to his advantage. to premeditate sueing his mother clearly lets you know hes not clueless and hes very aware of his actions.
Purple Nurple i love your profile pic btw😂 and yeah i agree
Dashie !
If you know she already has so many issues, why make it worse by having things like soda and chips in the house? Why not only have water to drink and only healthy snacks? It's A LOT harder to get way too many calories when all you have is carrots and celery than if you have soda and chips and cookies....
They will turn to shoplifting. They won't steal anything of value but they will steal soda and food. You could fill the house with water and fruit and veggies but if they want a hamburger they will get it somehow.
Precisely and she's spoilt rotten too. Gets away with yelling at her too passive parents. She needs to be put in her place. Katy at least has manners.
totally agree. us kids used to get into the junk food, so the house only had fruit veg & water lol
It's a condition. They have anger issues ( tantrums? Correct me if it's wrong, I'm still learning English) And the behavior of a child no matter their age. They are often rude, abusive etc. just to get what they want. Even if they are hospitalized and they have a ''no'' for a year or even 20 years the day they get out they will get whatever they want. Katy is indeed the one with manners probably because no matter what she does she still gets what she wants. She learned that by behaving nice and polite she will get what she craves.
It's not about calories, its about her body not signaling her that she is full. she wouldn't get full even off of eating only that.
Lord, I couldn't do it. What these parents do. Bless all of them.
Katie's dad is absolutely phenomenal.
I also cannot get over that nurse, completely irresponsible
1. Why was this in my recommended section
2. Why did it appears just as I made myself a bag of popcorn
3. Why did I watch the entire thing
You better answer those questions yourself.
Haha, me too!
Kirsty Pickering it’s like a train wreck, you just can’t look away
Kirsty Pickering the algorithm knows all :))
So many questions
Katie’s dad is a bloody legend
She’s lucky to have him
Harry Ruffin absolutely!
Yeh if it wasn't for him she wouldn't be able to have snickers and kitkats ever four minutes.
All of them is lucky to have those kind of parent, imagine if they live in poor that they can't buy any food they might become aggressive.
@@klarkyukhi3424 it's America. Even poor people can afford enough crap to eat to get obese 😂
@@TheChrist4ylor its Britain, but I agree that Americans eat a lot and are unhealthy
That woman at the hospital has no boundaries.
PWS or not, Sachin is abusive towards his family. While special considerations should be made for people with disabilities on a case by case basis, abuse is still abuse, and is never okay. The family should not have to deal with that, and the boy needs to be sent to a faculty where he can learn proper behavior.
One month of tough boot camp into the wild
agreed
Goink01 before he kills someone! He is dangerous to his entire family
hi zoidberg
I agree but the thing is, what if he can't be controlled? He's abusive when he doesn't get his own way and when he's "normal". I'm not an expert but I think you can't control his behaviour. It's too dangerous.
“Can she have more??”
“Can she take some home??”
“Can’t she have one more??”
NO! LADY JUST GIVE HER ONE!!😂😂DAMN!!
Ikr
I wouldn’t be offering her candy in the first place.
I know
Some people just don't understand that one sweet can already be to much. Because these kids think that one this time means one another time aswell.
seleena crum I KNOW THAT ANGERED ME SO MUCH
Tamara (from the care home) seems to really understand what her situation is, Katie seems a nice person but she is insanely naive, also I cannot imagine how she would ever raise a child of her own if she can't even take care of herself.
She is not “insanely naive”. What a horrible and insensitive thing to say!! Did you not pay attention when they said PWS does not affect only hunger and weight?? It also affects intellectual and emotional development.
@@songbirds3712 it's the truth. She is Niave in the worst way possible. I came from special needs and eventually weened off medical care. Some people need hope. Her hope is not gonna happen in this life but hopefully God give her a better one.
@@songbirds3712 do you not think a person who is unable to take care of herself to think that she can eventually take care of a child is naive?
Tamara has really grown. Her last appearance in a documentary, she did what she wanted, ate what she wanted, and wasn't the least bit concerned that she gained weight.
Here, she understands her condition and knows she can't live independently and that she was close to dying.
Katie is, unfortunately, hopelessly naive in her delusion that "strong willpower" is all it takes. If she possessed ANY willpower and demonstrated it then she wouldn't have been sent to try out the home for PWS victims.
41:32 that girl seems like a really sweet kind friend the way she tried to comfort Katie when she said “Everybody feels hungry” in a tone to try and let Katie know she’s not alone
Very true
"Well that was expensive" "Sorry" This broke my heart 💔😭 Kate is such a sweetheart
NERD Incorporated--And your point is???
Prestige Didlle I thought the same ❤️
Prestige Didlle. I don't feel bad for her at all she was horrible guide by her dad he let have too much freedom but now that you don't have it you can't go back it's the dad fault
Alex James--She actually can go into a special program...it's just going to be hard. She demonstrated that to a small degree when she visited the one. Her situation definitely was not the best for her, but it is such a difficult Syndrome to manage. Her parents need support too.
What do you expect when you have to mend multiple parachutes together for clothing?
31:24
"That was expensive"
"Sorry"
Katie is a precious human being
Maria Stokes my heart goes out to Katie!
What a sweet girl,I wish her nothing but the best.🙏🏻💗Stay strong.
Sadly Katie passed away. Rip she was so sweet.
Her father Tony also
So had,how
Do you have a source?
Wow those poor parents, I really couldn't cope with that.
I’m astounded by the nurse offering her sweets like that. How totally inappropriate. I was angry watching her try and coax the Mum into allowing more. 😡 😢
☀️ Ｓｕｎｎｙ Ｄａｙｓ ☀️ The nurse sounded a sandwich short of a picnic
☀️ Ｓｕｎｎｙ Ｄａｙｓ ☀️ Would you want her to destroy the whole hospital?
☀️ Ｓｕｎｎｙ Ｄａｙｓ ☀️ it’s not like 4 mini candy bars are going to make a dent in her obesity
Lavender Clorox Bleach I suspect it’s more to do with trying to make her understand that just because something is there she doesn’t have to eat it.
I agree.
I feel soooooooooooooooo bad for Katie. She's such a sweet person but she has to deal with such a hard disability. I hope that even if the disability prevents her to live on her own, that she will be able to curb her her eatting habits and live life to the full. :)
htevhkbf fhcybj101 it's a disability.
I want to like cheer her on... "GO girl!"..
Nyaan Vegan, I agree with you so much
i feel so sad for her too, she said she wanted kids but because of PWS, ger dreams are shattered..... She is so sweet and she deserves everything she wants
Good to see I'm not the only one ;)
Oh my heart breaks for all these parents and of course the children. Katie, I adore you and her dad…… what a wonderful man ❤
9:23 this behavior is highly inappropriate. Not only is the nurse trying to make mom out to be the bad guy, she is completely disregarding that giving sweets can be a detriment to Rebecca's health, and she's ignoring a clear boundary that was set. That's simply not acceptable from a healthcare provider.
Man I feel so bad for the Indian family, you can see the sadness in the fathers face and tone
ricepicker562 their kid needs to be sent for help somewhere for their own safety
Which is why I despise people with that disability
+Sayuri Lapis that explains why you scored so low on your Emotional Intelligence test.
Aarushi Sharma you don't understand do you? I live with an older sister who has this disorder and it's like hell. She takes my stuff away and never gives it back. I'm trying to be patient with her and make her realize her mistake but instead she acts like a child, jumping up and down. I understand she has this and I feel sorry for her but you have to understand that it is hard to have tolerance for these people. Emotional intelligence has nothing to do with this
youre honestly stronger than i am, i would want to distance myself and not want anything to do with this. I cant deal with it. The whole time all im thinking is these kids need a god damned good spanking and to do what theyre told
Shes 11??!?!?!? Looks 30
Deral782 Ł they’re bouncing back between an 11-year-old and a 23-year-old.
wait what shes 11? she does look 30! i feel so bad for her, and she actually has a personality that doesn't deserve it.
Rebecca is 11; Katie is 23; Sachin is 22
They have a disorder that causes learning disabilities as well as physical abnormalities. Had you watched the docu, you would’ve seen that.
Ikr
As horrible as rebecca can be, she can't help it BUT her parents aren't helping, especially her mum winding her up.
I'm so proud of Katie for living a full life despite of her difficulties. Bringing an apple to control the urges, working a full time job, and all these smart skills to cope really show how hard she works. I wish her a long and happy life ❤️
@w I did not know that! It must have been around the time I watched the docu then... That is sad to hear. I hope her family will be okay.. RIP
@w can u send me a link please for proof
There is nothing happy about her life. She lives a life if never feeling satisfied. She is deluded
@@Elizajane88 She had an illness, like many do, and still chose happiness and independence. I respect that. Many healthy people don't strive to improve themselves like she did. Sounds like the opposite of a delusion to me.
@@amberwolvers2390 agree to disagree… no matter what image she tried to portray she lives a very sheltered an naive life… her father even said that she would never admit it, but she would eat herself to death if she had access to money= DELUSION. whereas she sees it as delusion or not is another question. She was never anything close to being independent and lived a life full of emptiness from having to abstain from the ONE thing that made her happy. She cheated numerous times. Doesn’t make her a bad person, she was just INCAPABLE of abstaining from the one thing that would kill her
I thank God for my good health and pray these people cope with their condition and get cured soon.
happy me I agree, i wish I didn't take my health for granted
pacificcoasthighway same
You can't cure a genetic disease lol. This girl has a damaged 15th chromosome the same way downies have a damaged 23rd chomosome.
happy me same
happy me and um here shouting to god profanity for making me short i have no right to whine!
I felt so bad for Katie she seems so sweet and nice
I thought the same thing,.
shes perhaps the only one who is really trying.
All she wants is her freedom to live alone and raise a family. But her illness keeps her prisoner. It's so sad
yea I really like her too! I felt really sorry for her because she couldn't really fulfill her dreams of living independently and having kids because of PWS. She has the mind of any healthy human being. Of working hard, earning and spending your own money and one day having a family!
yes she is so nice and she's trying very hard
does anyone have an update on her? I read somewhere in the TH-cam section an update about Rebecca. Her sister said she is 23 now and is in a home with other people who also have PWS and that she has lost weight and is doing well. I hope Katie is doing well too. She should be about 35 years now considering this episode was recorded in 2004
Hats off to Katie’s dad for his awareness of Katie’s condition & keeping an eye on her food, etc, by doing those things he is probably saving her life
It’s easy to criticise Katie for having a tantrum but think about a time when you’ve been super hungry and unable to get food. Extreme hunger causes you to be easily agitated and aggressive because hunger causes receptors in the brain to go mental. Katie unfortunately became accustomed to eating whenever she likes and this program would’ve been a massive shock for her
Exactly! Along blood sugar controls make you get angry too
I can’t imagine the torment she’s going through… I feel weak and jittery if I haven’t eaten in a while and I become irritable. It must be a nightmare for these people - hungry 24/7 with a brain that never tells you when you’re full.
The very definition of 'Hangry'
🤤 😠
It's very sad Katie wants children and she cannot have them....I know it's for her own good but it's sad.
Not being able to have kids is not for their own good in fact most pws adults are able to have kids but no it’s not for their own good
She’s actually infertile. She literally CANT have kids. It’s for the best tho
Bangity Bang it is not for the best how can you say that
Destiny Turner because she’s incapable of taking care of herself. How can she take care of children?
Bangity Bang how do you know she can’t care for herself also even if she can’t care for herself that does not mean she can’t care for a child but regardless it is NOT for her own good
Katie is so sweet, I hope she achieves her dreams and overcomes her food cravings.
She is inspirational.
She is so sweet...
I doubt that people with PDS can overcome their food cravings, maybe just control their weight
Tashai Small I am not horrible,the people that let these people eat so much food are horrible.Do you ever wonder how many animals are slaughtered a year for ONE of these fat people,a lot
Sammy Gould Do you know how many animals are slaughtered to give you the energy to waste trolling people on TH-cam? LOL....
10 years ago I was on the same psychiatric ward with a young man with PW. He was just like Rebecca. I remember him constantly calling his mother, raging about not getting a sandwich, ect. He was constantly yelling at the staff about food. It was annoying, but of course he could not help it. I felt so sorry for him.
Did you talk to him?
Their hunger cannot be controlled. Their behaviour can.
Sachin scares me and I'm a whole continent away. I can't imagine what his family feels.
11 stone in 1 year, he might not even be alive
@@georgebeltran3742 He is by the looks of things, and it looks like he's lost a lot of weight which is good. Hope he's still doing better
Sachin looks murderous all the time I would be so scared to be in the same house as him
bthepsychic I agree
bthepsychic unrelated but your pfp is beautiful
His sister looks terrified of him and very uncomfortable.
EXACTLY! I WILL HAVE TO CARRY A BASEBALL BAT WITH ME ALL THE TIME IF I KNOW HE'S NEAR
bthepsychic mood
Katie's dad is absolutely amazing and patient.
And also very naive. Thinks his daughter is sticking to her rabbit diet while she's heavy as a small truck.
@@Gonken88 And she just crys and screams cause thay won't give in to her demands. And gives her more food. She's lucky she can eat unlike other's like millions that are starving in Africa right.
@@marielewis2803 You do understand that Katie breaking down, crying and screaming like that is due to an underdeveloped mind and decreased cognitive function?
Did you actually listen to the start of the documentary when the narrator was describing prada willi syndrome?
@@cupsftw2146 Yes I certainly know and understand that but if the other's can cope with it in the home then so should she aswell just saying.
@@cupsftw2146 I've watched it all and as for Sachin he's a danger to his family especially his mum.
It's disgusting how Becky's mother speaks of her. Imagine bullying your own child for having a disorder...SMH
She did say a lot of quiet parts out loud, huh? I was shocked.
To be honest, seeing Becky yelling at her mother is giving me satisfaction i dont know why- am i mean?
I don't like Becky's mum either. They don't seem to give her any discipline. Like, you yell and scream at your dad like that, no chow mein for you!!
Katie seems like a wonderful person. I hope she achieves her goals or at least gets to live a happy life.
She died recently 😞
Sachin needs to be institutionalized. He is a danger to his family.
Yup he at least needs to be drugged up so he is more docile. He is a dangerous man with a short fuse and shows no empathy. Violence would come too easily for him and he wouldn’t have the ability to control it.
I agree
@@evolutionaryadvantage He cant be institutionalized until his parents give consent I agree that they should have him institutionalized because they cannot control him as much as they maybe could 15 years ago.

“Just a big beached whale, my Becky”…..says her mom. WOW! Those are powerful soul crushing words if Rebecca would have heard and understood the meaning of that sentence.😢
The mother is utterly appalling. You can tell she actively dislikes her daughter.

It's harder in many ways because your body will always crave food and you're forced to come back to it daily.
Poor Katie, she tries so hard. She really is such a gem. It would be like relying on my young child not to eat the sweets or cakes sitting infront of him. Must be so tough for her and her dad

"Sorry"

Why would Rebecca’s mother, knowing she has an issue with change to her routine, point out that the husband had gone a different route on their way anywhere??? That is like pouring gasoline on a fire. SMH.
Because she’s clueless, low iq dimwit who doesn’t have a single idea about anything outside of her own dumbass bubble.
She said that the camera crew made her say that along with the beached whale remark and her youngest daughter eating Pringle’s before they went out to dinner was also staged
Is there a link to an article or video of Rebecca's mom talking about her experience on the show? I'd love to hear more if there is @ljmcdonald2703
@@ljmcdonald2703who's more important? Her daughter or the camera crew? I would never intentionally antagonize my disabled child for better viewing. Maybe mom is the one with mental problems.
Sometimes you have to stir the pot. Life is unpredictable. And you can't live in a bubble.
Those parents are amazing. I’d completely lose it if I have a child who’s suffering from EDs. Imagine being shouted at by your child daily & face the burst outs constantly.
Katies dad is trying so hard! I feel for him
Ria for me it's the same but it's my metabolism I'm like a rocket engine when I eat I burn the energy very fast and within 2-3 hours I'm hungry again but here's the good thing about it I don't gain weight in fact I lose
Choir Fandom Cooking Rants and Random Channel did anyone ask you? Your comment is completely irrelevant to this entire topic about Katie's Dad. Good for you I guess but you may have a fast metabolism that's not always gonna last forever just make sure your getting appropriate nutrients and proper portions. If you don't then by the age of 35 your metabolism would've slowed and you become overweight or obese or you will suffer other issues internally.
Choir Fandom Cooking Rants and Random Channel not to mention your case of having a fast metabolism is normal for most people between the ages of 13-30 it's just a part of growing up. Most people's metabolisms at this age are very fast but for others it may be slower.
I feel so bad for her! She wants to be independant. She just simply control it its a genetic disorder that she can't help. Thats the unfortunate truth

Sachin's attitude sucks. He is such a bully. His parents are advising him for his own benefit and in return they get threats and they are afraid of him. What a way to say thanks to people that loves and cares for you
omg this girl Katie is so sweet.. She even cooks her own food..
And has a job
i know right 😭
+Okiilucy I can see why they did, but it should have been delivered a bit differently. I really respected that woman who lost all the weight and went from 32 to 14 stone.
Yeah i agree she is sooo cute.
Yeah I agree. She doesn't want to become a slave to the disease and give in/be treated like she's disabled and that is very very valid. If she was to live there she wouldn't be allowed to work and would be 'distracted' from food by doing activities. That isn't what she wants, she's an independent woman. She's right, it's very regimented the way they talk to the residents.
This doco was made about 10 years ago, I wonder how they all are now.
Rebeccas Mom needs to remove all junk food and sweets in the house for the sake of the whole family and not just Rebecca. I really give Kate props. I just want to give her a hug. She is really doing what she can to manage herself. I think Kate should join a sport or class to get more exercising and socializing in. Kate is in such a good spirit for having a disorder that makes it hard to deal with yourself.
I agree. Shes eleven and even if she has disabilities she can Express herself and feel emotional. I am the same way only with high functioning autism and I'm given social places to go. And a place to work at a daycare. When people say that I can't feel sad or angry, they are wrong. Some of us don't want to have what we have but we live with it.
@@autismadventures7686 true
I absolutely agree
She isn't managing herself when she's put on three stones in ten months and can't go 24 hours where her food is controlled. She's fooled herself into believing she can control it, when she clearly cant. She'll continue to gain until she's forced into a home where her food is controlled. Life isn't fair but that's how it goes.
@@JoJo-jk4jm I agree
That's a very supportive father! He's giving her freedom and he is proud of her achievements.
I thought I was pretty fuckin English but I had literally no idea what Rebecca was saying
😂😂😂
That’s a different dialect called willy hard to understand
Part of the disorder is that she has problems with muscle tone so it's probably harder for her to speak and articulate
@@Irishbloke Very funny!!
Bucky Bun lmao
God how did that nurse become a nurse! Can't believe she was trying to give Rebecca more sweets
Right! She was super aggressive tryna push those candies on to her- n And the face she made when to the daughter the mom said no again, like 'for fuck's sake, your mom is crazy'. I wanted to smack her. Bad enough to undermine the a parent in front of the child, but to do it in a way that contributes to a life threatening diseases is terrible. She should have known better-
Exactly.
I was freegin shocked at that!! Even when the mom said, "No, just one." The nurse insisted to keep asking, "Aww, can't she bring a few home." Had I been one of the parents I would have pulled that nurse aside physically by her arm and told her to STOP IT
yeah i cant believe she would give a fat child candy which she didnt know had a eating disorder
you dumb fucks
Jojo's world she might not have known what Rebecca's problem is. Most of the time a couple of candies isn't a problem for a child.
And who said that was a nurse? She might have been a secretary
That home for people with PWS is EXACTLY what every single one of them need. Hopefully, there is a way for benefits to be paid directly to the program or some kind of charity benefit. These young people will not fare well on their own with their families and they put a lot of stress on everyone around them.
This documentary broke my heart...I feel for the parents and their kids. God bless these families, very difficult situation 🙏😢😞
I didn’t know what Rebecca was saying 98% of the time
I’m Australian and talking to my relatives in the UK is frustrating, I sometimes wish we had a translator

MUMMY!
@@evolutionaryadvantage AHH MUMMY
She said: *AAALAAJAARAAARAADAAADAAALARARARAAAAAAA!!!!!*
It’s sad when Katie says “there is a good Katie and a bad Katie”
Being a recovering addict I know what she means
Lauren Malcom being a Gemini I know EXACTLY what she means.
I’m not sure about mentally defective people. However, for addicts who are mentally normal otherwise, this is a total cop out. There is no “a bad and a good you,” it’s all you. You did bad things, don’t blame them on a fictional other you. You have character flaws in you, regardless if you are high or not.
Stay strong❤
Felt exactly the same in anorexia recovery
What it means is that sometimes the self discipline isn't there, and instead of admitting that, there are two of the same person. It's classical, typical denial.
The people running that group home towards the end are absolute heroes. I ran out of patience just watching them! And then seeing poor Katie sobbing… what a tough job they have. Best of luck to you Katie, as well as the other residents there.
i fight my own battle . katie touch me the most she want her own kid she want a child its the most sweetest thing i heard in dis documentary . shes the sweetest . i do have a husband im obese i want a child too maybe i need to disipline myself before its too late . katie inspire me 😚 ill do my best to lost weight

I feel bad for Katie she's an angel and all she wants is to be independent and to have children and a normal life she's so precious she and she's trying so hard
jodie she is so cute bless her
Trying hard? She's eating rabbit food when anyone's watching, and stuffing her face with muffins and chocolate bars when she's alone, and can't even go for 24 hours without snacks when she's in a care home. That's not trying, that's delusion.
@@Gonken88 I know and she's going on all the time about willpower. When she was in the home she proved she had 100 percent none whatsoever.
Gonken88 when i first saw your comment i just thought you were hateful. but i’ve rewatched this video multiple times & i kinda have to agree. she’s all sweet & nice as long as she’s getting her way. and the scene with tamara really opened my eyes, that proved that some people can acknowledge that they have a problem and simply can’t live independently. couldn’t be katie tho.
@@emranuhodzic2448 Yes that's right she is nice and sweet as long as she does get her own way with food. Her behaviour in the home proves as her behaviour changes nasty when thay tell her no more food and at the bowling she was so nasty kicking of at everyone right.
Thank you for posting this interesting documentary. I worked with Prayer Willi patients who also are mentally challenged. They are difficult to handle,but fulfilling as well.
Rebecca’s mother clearly doesn’t know when she’s full either, must be so difficult for Rebecca to have an obese mother but nobody stops her eating.
Yeh how can an already obese parent help someone with an over eating eating issue
It can be difficult bringing a child with Prader Willi syndrome out to eat at a restaurant, especially when she or he is impatient at waiting
Ok, why would you take someone with this condition to a buffet to eat?
it's not a buffet, it's a restaurant with a salad bar. i get it but they probably did it bc its the only place they have half a chance of finishing a meal before she freaks out like she ultimately did bc she has food right away. since she's with other carers a few nights a week i personally think for the sake of the other kids and everyone else paying for a peaceful meal they should have gone while she was away but on the other hand she doesn't deserve complete isolation from family life...it's hard to know where to draw the line but with what the mother said had there not been a salad bar she wouldn't have waited for the food to be cooked let alone stood half a chance at letting the rest of her family eat even a bit of their meal. that whole night was done wrong though in my opinion. if they took her they should have brought her something to do like a hulk video game or given her fruit to eat after dinner so the others could finish and once she started yelling someone should have taken her to the car so everyone there didn't have their meal ruined by her loud screaming tantrum
What Itsa Secret said, but also I assumed so she would get "full" on the buffet and not rack up the bill in a non-buffet restaurant. This girl will cost her parents thousands in only 1 night if not more...she has no limit.
@@arcticwarrior3499 very true
Hmm... Would they still eat if the foods are really spicy, bitter, or sour?
Arctic Warrior She doesn’t get full due to the genetic abnormality of PWS.

How do you know that he has died?
This is so difficult to watch- painful for the victims of the disease itself and just as painful for the families. There HAVE to be medical answers
The irony that they are more hungry then other people but need to eat less is so sad
I feel so so sad for Sachin's sister at 36:00. Imagine living with an older(?) brother so aggressive and blinded by his own self interest that your elderly parents can hardly cope and then have him turn on you too. She must feel so neglected poor thing.

34:25 Look at him. Hes siroiusly ill, and this is his answer. No benefits for that unacceptable behaviour. I have problems with my weight since childhood and if i do not change my behaviour the insurance company will not pay for the treatment associated with the treatment of my weight. I know he is ill, but he is basically killing himself. It might be drastic, but somone, even with force must change his behaviour. I know one man, who was close to death because of these problems. Sadly, this is boy is on the same way.
Unfortunately, I don't need to imagine.
Madi NP I agree, I don't know why but he annoys me so much he's so selfish!!!!
My heart goes out to Katie, she really is trying her best... what makes me smile about her is the fact she’s saying she wants a child and she is kinda living independently 🤗! Let’s hope u really could make a change !
When she said she wanted a child my heart just broke I wa red to cry so much, I actually almost did 😭💔
She won't be able to have one or live independently. She'd be sent to a home once her parents c ant take care of her anymore.
Katie is really trying and she should be proud for it
I’m so proud of Katie! I struggle with smoking (tobacco/nicotine) addiction and every single day blame myself. Suffer a lot but dont give up and her story has motivated me so much! I have a genetic issue bcs 3 generation b4 me were also smokers and smoked a lot so lack of dopamine literally makes me cry and shaking like i’m drug addicted. Even several narcologists gave up with me.. but i’m trying af at least 1 week, 2 weeks, 2 months but I’m trying really and wish u guys to quit and fight ya addictions! Seek for help, admit yr problems and please! If u r teenager - DONT START SMOKING. I beg u it’s not cool.
If i knew that will face 101 health diseases, bad skin, unbelievable lvl of aggression and pain in every single muscular due to smoking and eating junk bs - I’D NEVER START IT.
Please, dont give up guys and gl!
Believe in yaself and trust ur inner voice that says “enough”
Katie seems like such a sweetheart, the way she said she wanted to be a mother and didn’t care if the child was disabled
