And it’s not like they can’t afford incredible child care! They could have paid a nanny to watch their children at home while away, OR payed a nanny and took her on the cruise with them to watch the kids if they wanted the kids to come but didn’t want to stress over having to take care of their children themselves and just relax. They are EXTREMELY wealthy. They have no excuse. Heck, even if they were poor, there is still no excuse to leave your children alone in such a high risk environment! Horrendous!
They basically married the only person they’ve both ever dated and immediately popped out two kids while thinking they had the experience to be giving marriage advice. As if getting married young makes them experts lmao
as if there's no option for them to leave the kids with family for a week, so they can go have an adult vacation. vacationing with kids is just parenting in a different location, if that's not what you want, make actual accommodations for your kids
@@bremcdonald Look up Madeleine McCann... she was also asleep in a hotel room with her sister while her parents went to dinner when she disappeared and has never been found. Their children could have easily gotten taken and hidden on the ship that would take DAYS to search for them. A staff member could have easily went into their room and harmed them as well.
Wasn’t Madeleine McCann’s case enough for parents to understand that they should never leave children alone ANYWHERE especially when they’re on vacation? Complete m0r0ns!
Matt really needs to get a grip also. He has a life most people dream about. His diva behavior makes me sick. Like the “ look how close the bed is too the door” stop.
I remember asking my dad what he thought about Matt having a problem celebrating his birthday and Father’s Day so close together and he just asked me how old this dude was because that’s the most immature thing he’s ever heard
dramatically complaining about your two healthy, abled bodied children, as if having your dinner interrupted is a serious life problem, and then proceeding to leave those kids unattended... just wow. you went on a vacation with two toddlers. truly, what did you expect? either bring a nanny full time or accept that your vacations will look a little different and be a little less relaxing until your kids are a bit older
oh please, them leaving their kids alone is bad but you acting like complaining about being tired or whatever related to their kids is not normal... like, in what reality do you live in? people do get overwhelmed. stop acting like this is also something to judge them about when its not "I have healthy babies so I can't be sad or overwhelmed or complain just for the sake of complaining because it feels nice to say it out loud "
@@maymayyyy you can complain and moan all you want believing your kids unattended at the age of two years old is unacceptable. I don’t know why they even took their two-year-olds on a cruise anyway. They should’ve all just stayed at home or found a proper babysitter so just the two adults could go on the cruise. If they’re not able to make that happen, they shouldn’t have had kids in the first place. Stopped defending bad parenting.
Imagine something catastrophic happens and you’re 10 minutes from your kids, on a ship, with thousands of panicking people. Nah, dinner alone ain’t worth it.
@@bremcdonald Last cruise I was on our cabin was 15 minutes away from the dining hall. I forgot something and had to go back to my room so thats how I know. I was shocked it was so far away because with everything else going on and being out and about on the boat it didn't feel that way until I had to go directly there.
@@bremcdonaldcruise ships are huge. Dinner usually happens in the dining room and therefore away from the actual cabins. You most likely have to battle crowds and go either up or down stairs or elevators to get back to your room. Even if you take away big crowds you’re still a pretty decent walk away.
@@bremcdonaldbro you have no idea how huge cruise ship are… to get to your cabin out of hundreds if not thousands of room is like a maze… in an emergency situation, the best thing to do is to go to the nearest emergency exit… cant imagine if they have to go to their room the fetch their kids then get to an emergency exit is kinda not possible in a panic situation… BTW WHO LEAVES KIDS ON CRUISE KNOWING 100% THE KIDS WOULD 100% DIE IF THERES IS ANY I MEAN ANY SORT OF EMERGENCY??? MY ANXIETY COULD NEVER EVEN CONSIDER THAT OPTION ON A MOVING SHIP LOL ITS BONKERS REALLY
I was a nanny for a family who told me I could leave their youngest at their house alone to nap while I went go to pick up the older one from school. Bc “it‘s only 5 min away.” Their car had been stolen twice out of their backyard. Absolutely not. I cannot imagine how scary that would be to wake up and no adults are there as a 2 year old. Also posting this while they’re still on the cruise is crazy. Now everyone on that cruise knows their children are unaccompanied
Good on you for having better sense than the parents! I remember some times as a very small child where I woke up to no one in the house and I panicked every time. When you're too young to know how to read, they can't even leave you a note, and you don't have a cell phone to call anyone either (or know how to use the landline in my case). Even if adults aren't that far away, a little kid doesn't know that, and they deserve to feel secure.
This is how Madeleine McCann went missing. Her parents left her sleeping in her room, so that they could go to dinner by themselves without her. Just to come back to find her gone. Abby and Matt DO BETTER.
Madeleines parents didn’t even lock the apartment and weren’t on a ship where there’s no where to go. They were pretty much begging for their children to be abducted. Not the same at all
@@toriplayssgGood parents don’t take a family holiday and leave the kids behind on their own. My mum and dad always took us with them, or left us with a trusted adult. Even if monitors were a thing back then, they wouldn’t leave us alone.
@@boosqueezy2418definitely Matt. Abby isn't an angel at all but i feel like if she hadn't got married so young and had kids she'd of had more time to mature and find a better person than him. He just seems childish, toxic and self-centered, way more than she does
Am I the only one that thinks they both suck? Everyone seems to be on the “Hate Matt” train… but she isn’t great either. She’s very complicit in everything, I don’t see her as a victim at all. They both give off peaked in high school, married too young and regret the last 5 years of their lives.
@@bremcdonaldit’s called true crime for a reason…because it’s true. There’s literally a whole series of true crime cruise ships stories, so yes - crazy stuff can happen.
So if they left their kids in their room asleep with baby monitors and went in the backyard or the neighbors for dinner they would be arrested? Because that's what happened here if you place the scenario on land instead of a ship. And no, they would not have been.🤦♀️
@@jenniyumthose are two COMPLETELY different scenarios… ones in the safety of your home and neighborhood, the other is on a cruise ship where whoever has access to your room and can frankly enter whenever they would like… cruise ships are known to have people and CHILDREN go missing and d*ing. regardless, DONT LEAVE YOUR BABIES UNATTENDED. EVEN IF YOURE GOING TO A NEIGHBORS HOME??!!! Like he so fr, that is incredibly irresponsible and dangerous. They had and have the means to have family or a nanny watch their kids while they go to dinner and if they don’t, then don’t bring your kids on vacation…
What’s nuts to me is that the kids clubs and nurseries on cruises are generally so sooooo well done. Older kids it can be hit or miss due to interactions with the other kids but for the young young ones it tends to go really well. The fact they decided the kids didn’t like it and then resorted to leaving them unsupervised is insane
The kids were probably hell on earth to deal with no thanks to Matt and Abby’s hands off parenting style. Rarely do kids clubs call parents so often. M&A we’re probably very snarky too. Matt’s story when G was throwing rocks at other kids on the playground makes me think the kids club didn’t want them there because of their behavior. Not blaming the children of course.
@@absurdartist6346yes! Luckily I have moved on but I spent years working in several different childcare centers from daycares, to gyms, etc, and it is THE LAST resort to call the parents! To the point that sometimes management will reprimand for calling parents even when it’s warranted
@@kimmiehamilton6993 if this is your mindset I pray you don’t have kids because leaving 2 BABIES aged 1 and 2 ALONE on a cruise ship when the statistics of how dangerous cruise ships are and how many people and children go missing is INSANE, it’s literal neglect? Please ask a judge or social worker if they think everyone should calm down because you’re tripping
Oh my god I honestly didn't even think about the fact that because they're INFLUENCERS and their lives are incredibly public that some creep on the internet could have been FOLLOWING ALONG while they leave their children UNATTENDED. They basically just gave potential kidnappers instructions on how and when to STEAL THEIR CHILDREN. Unbelievable.
I bet this was Matt's genius idea because he *always* needs selfish time for himself, and despite her anxiety, Abby is too much of a doormat to go against him lest they have a fight on vacation (he probably told her that her anxiety was irrational and over the top and would blame her for the fight), so she let it happen.
I just heard about this couple and watched few of their videos. It is apparent he doesn’t like her. He is very narcissistic and immature. I would hope her family calls her attention to his behavior but until she is ready to listen nothing will change. I hope the babies will be ok.
Parents that are defending these people need to be looked into. 😅 I would NEVER put my children in harm's way by leaving them alone on a cruise ship full of 100s of complete strangers who could have ill intentions and know that they're in the room all by themselves while mommy and daddy are having dinner. If you can't afford a nanny or don't have a family member to come with you on the cruise, DON'T GO ON A CRUISE. Parenthood is hard, but there are sacrifices you have to make as a parent until your kids are old enough to take care of themselves and be alone for a while. So disgustingly irresponsible. Do better.
@@bremcdonaldDo you understand that one of them is a toddler, who can literally walk on his own? He could literally do anything and all they could do is watch him do it and hope he’ll be okay long enough for them to reach to help him. You’re being way too flippant in these comments. Luckily, nothing happened to them though.
@@bremcdonaldwell the wifi on cruises are actually horrible so the FaceTime could’ve been laggy and an emergency can happen at any second so getting to them in time can be hard
I do not like judging parenting. Unless it's abuse or neglect, I don't like to. But Jesus these people have a ton of money; who thinks bringing a 1&2 year old on a cruise would be a vacation?!? Literally get a sitter, or wait until they can vocalize their needs.
Leaving your child is the definition of neglect. Not teaching children what they need to become stable adults is also a form of emotional neglect, not saying that’s them just giving an extra example.
As a mom planning to go on a cruise with a 4 year old and a 1 year old in November...I CANNOT imagine ever doing this let alone thinking of it. This is so selfish. God forbid you sacrifice a dinner in the main dining room. Can we stop praising these influencers??
they fact they were posting that they were leaving their kids alone in real time is INSANE!! who knows what kinda crazy is on board that ship?!?! they’re weird.
Matt and Abby are claiming that they never left their kids alone and that they would never leave their kids alone. The thing I don’t understand is that if someone was with them (like family or a nanny) why would you have to watch a monitor through FaceTime? The math ain’t mathin’
I mean I'd still check the baby monitors even if I left my baby with family or a sitter (hello major anxiety) but I don't know if I believe their story either
What scares me more are young couples who will model this parenting behavior thinking it’s okay and nothing will happen. Just because nothing bad happened to them, does not mean it will not happen to you. They were lucky, super lucky but young couples who try this, I promise you, luck will not be on your side nor should you risk it.
@@bremcdonaldanything that could possibly endanger the child. Too many possibilities to happen, you simply do not leave a 2 and 1 year old by themselves especially when staff have access to your room. Leaving children to go to dinner? There are so many ways they could have safety gone about it. When you become a parent, it’s always ALWAYS about the kids, even on vacation. Parenting is not clocking in and out, I don’t care about excuses, it’s our job as a parent to make sure children are safe. This was NOT being safe.
@@accioapple760I don’t have any children of my own yet but I’m a god mother to a 4 yr old that iv watch grow from being a newborn and at 2 yrs old , he could do a lot of things maybe other kids his age couldn’t , the possibilities of the danger they could un intentionally cause themselves in a matter of minutes is crazy sometimes lol , no survival instincts, this is mind boggling to me..
@@accioapple760 I still don't get what could've happened. Its a genuine question. They were monitoring them, and they were close by. Thats not checking out.
@@bremcdonald Sigh 😔 Kidnapping. Physical harm. SA. When you are on a cruise, everything is not a step away from one location to the next. That dinner was no where close to their room, it’s definitely a walk. God forbid someone came into their room, it would have taken them several minutes to get back to the room. That is several minutes too long, especially if the kids cannot defend themselves and the person is already in the room. Parenting includes any possible prevention of serious harm and if you still don’t get it, with all respect, please do not have children. That’s all I can say on the matter.
Abby's family is very religious, and I genuinely think they only got married so young because of that and... yk what comes with it. Same thing with the kids. Abby looks like she'd of been a better mom if she got to mature more but he seems so childish and like he doesn't have a single idea about how shitty he treats her. At the end of the day I really don't think this couple will last much longer but we'll see
Yeah that's the danger with having zero life experience before making big life decisions. Especially children where you cannot get out of. Like you can change jobs, you can divorce, you can sell a house but children are for life. They are married children with children and that's so sad. And they lowkey promoted that in their earlier videos too.
This!!! It’s soo sad cause I can’t recall exactly what it was, but it was something about her body that was actually very normal but it was clear Abby had NO idea & no one, not even her own mother had bothered to tell her; despite the fact that she was expecting a child & already had one.. And then she has Matt🫥.. who’s like “oh that’s sooo weird!” She was expected to have & raise babies despite not having a soul care to explain to her how her body works.. It’s also not the first time she’s quoted misinformation when it comes to HER OWN BODY.. That’s so fkin sad to me.
It BAFFLES ME that people don’t understand that your life changes when you have children! If you want to have a “kid free” dinner - don’t have children or don’t bring them with you ( and from what’s being said, they certainly can afford a nanny ) Another thing, why do you go on a cruise with two toddlers? This was a vacation they had for the two of them, not for their family.💕
For the cost of a cruise ticket let the kids be comfy at home with a nanny! If you can afford to take them, no way you can't afford to have someone watch them
This is crazy considering the amount of missing children that go missing on cruises. This is so irresponsible and they should definitely get in trouble for this.
@@bremcdonalddo a quick google of missing people from cruise ships. It’s extra unfortunate because it’s international waters and no investigations are usually done.
Fr like Mrs girl you just posted that you left your two children under two all alone unattended on a cruise ship that’s negligence and if she was that comfortable to post that alone imagine what else they’ve done and haven’t posted as a “life hack”
Reminds me of Madeline Mccans parents leaving their small children alone on vacation. Different, but very similar actions that can lead to very serious consequences. Also, rage bating something like that is so shameful and gross.
This is why I wish more people would wait to have kids. Too many people not wanting to give up fun and games and thinking they could balance their extravagant lives and have kids- it's called settling down for a reason. Just because you have the financial means to have children doesn't mean that you are ready for the responsibility.
I have always wondered why the McCanns were never charged with child neglect for leaving the kids alone? Why were they allowed to keep their other kids and faced no legal consequences?
@kitkatmccabe it was a different time, it was more common than not for mom and dad to leave kids alone while they went for dinner. My parents did it all the time.
@@medusaschild that’s true. Madeline McCanns case was probably the turning point for a lot of parents that did similar things with innocent enough intentions
Either rage bait as you said, or the stupidest couple ever, as there are kid's clubs, nurseries, babysitting services on cruise ships. So the children hated all the services? Also, we know it isn't as if they can't afford it. Them deciding to do this means they made not one, but multiple bad decisions. Also, watching a baby monitor (facetime in their case) is different at home. You can easily run to the next room. You can't do that on a cruise ship.
Posting your whereabouts so extensively especially when we know creeps follow family pages closely , and then letting everyone know your kids are currently unattended is craaaazy
When I was a kid, and my family was staying in a hotel, I remember NEVER being able to go places without my mom or my dad. I want food? Mom or dad took me. I want to go swimming? Mom or dad took me. If I wanted to go to the children's area? Mom or dad took me. They never let me out of their sight when we were on trips. And if my parents wanted to do something alone, they would ask my aunt, uncle, or grandparents. If none of the other family members were there, they wouldn't do it and plan it for a time when my brother and I could be watched. This is absolutely insane.
The “it feels different after you have kids” is bs. After I heard that I texted my exhusband who’s my sons dad and his response was “what no. It doesn’t work like that. There was zero difference from before childbirth and after. Even if it did it’s called being a grown up and realizing what she went through and all you’re thinking about is your pleasure and not what my wife went through to have my children.”
This probably sounds weird but I’m glad you have an ex that’s a decent man. I haven’t encountered that in my life and in my family so it’s nice to hear that there’s still good in this world when it comes to divorce and coparenting
@@notsuspicioususer4080 we agreed that just because our marriage didn’t work doesn’t mean that we shouldn’t have a friendship. He’s still one of the closest friends I have and I’m so glad for that. Him and my husband are also great friends and close too. I’m glad we have the relationship we do not just for my son but also for us.
All she did was complain about her kids the entire trip. As a mom of 3 whos kids are grown now...this disgusts me. She sees her kids as an inconvenience during her vacation instead of spending time with them. The kids are ALSO on vacation and she did NOTHING to make it fun for them...just treated them like they were a burden. If she wanted a trip without kids...why not hire someone to take care of them while they did their selfish activities? God knows they have enough money to do that. Sounds like she also made her parents vacation really crappy too since she kept dumping the kids with them instead of just hiring a care taker or utilizing the on site nursery.
I became convinced they're trolls and ragebaiters when I heard Matt's music, no way that he's serious about that garbage, I refuse to believe someone is that delusional
being so into celebrating oneself that you get upset at ur wife for celebrating father's day and ur bday at the same time when it lands on the same day is a very common narcissistic trait. i think he's a total narcissist and she enables him.
So you'd rather have a complete stranger in your room watching your children while they sleep? I fail to understand how this is at all safer than what they did.
@@bremcdonaldif someone is hired by a cruise line to be a nanny I would hope they’re qualified. You would at least know an adult who is capable of helping your child in case of an emergency is there with them. You honestly think a baby is more capable of taking care of themselves than an adult just because they aren’t personal friends of Matt and Abby?
This couple has crazy red flags. Goes to show how dangerous social media is cuz they seem the perfect couple to ALOT of people depending on which content they watch
Life with kids doesn’t stop.. it slows down. I think they need to remember that. This means.. maybe not taking a cruise when your kids are so young because you want to spend alone time with your spouse. It’s impossible with kids that young. It just is. They should’ve waited a few years til the kids were old enough to enjoy the kids club. Like I said, life doesn’t stop - it slows down.
Great example of "its not because you can have children, that you should.." They recently had a solo trip? I get that as a parent some time alone is crucial but leaving your kids alone in a massive ship? Why get kids if you dont want to be around them. Everything they do is just for appearance, stupid influencer stuff.. be a responsible parent for a change. Not the first time they've been in the spotlight for the wrong reasons.
@@aj-ic9vz That wasn't a cruise and it happened 11 years ago. It wasn't a locked room or a place with tons of cameras and the parents weren't watching with a monitor. Lets say someone had an elaborate plan to kidnap their kids, where exactly are they taking them? Its a cruise. You people need a reality check. What a way to live.
@@bremcdonald idk why ur freaking out on me I don't have an opinion one way or another on the situation, I was just telling you what the original commenter was referencing.
I can’t even shower in the same house as my kids without freaking out. This is outrageous. The endless list of possible outcomes. This tells me they’ve done it before at home.
I have been on so many cruises and I think a big point people miss here is that these ships have sometimes 15+ levels. Often the dining areas can be on the complete opposite side and elevators are always crammed and you could wait for one for 10+ mins. Yes, there are stairs, but if an emergency did occur, it would take you AT LEAST 20 mins to get to them which could be too late. We’ve brought our kids on cruises and have NEVER even thought to leave them behind in the room. One of us always stayed while the other went to get food and bring it back to the room. This is so irresponsible of Matt and Abby.
I’m sorry, but there are some people that just shouldn’t have kids. There are SO many people who wish they could have children and they would love and protect them more than they EVER could. They do not deserve those kids
Nobody deserves kids and it's not just "some" people that shouldn't have them. Too many people have kids for selfish, arbitrary reasons and the people that "wish they could have children" could really be using all of that time and energy to care for people that are already here and struggling. Reproduction is inherently selfish and I'm tired of people pointing at the breeders that happen to be on social media going "THEY'RE DOING IT WRONG" This particular couple is on social media broadcasting their actions so we can see it all and comment on it. Do you know what's happening in households across the world?? Across the US alone??? Negligent things like this are happening all the time and it's just not on camera. Do you know how many parents are out there having multiple kids and then leaving them alone with each other on a constant basis? Do you know how frequent it is for kids to be abandoned? Society is a shitshow and a LOT of parents are doing shitty things like this. And fuck anyone who *WISHES* they could have kids in this repugnant fucking existence.
I know parents will sometimes have to make compromises or decisions that would get them judged if they were broadcast for the whole internet but this is crazy especially because it was so unnecessary. These people have money, why are you even wanting to bring kids that young on a cruise or if you do, sorry you have to take their safety into consideration on your very luxurious vacation like???? Also throw that man into the tar pits as far as I’m concerned, “your wife feels different down there”??? Their relationship feels like my nightmare tbh
@@bremcdonald you need to pipe down weirdo, I’ve been robbed from an adjoining room when i crashed in a friends room… my suitcase could’ve been their babies lmao
The way people overshare is wild. Don’t post your vacations or trips until after you come back or don’t say much at all. Just by looking at the room it looks like Royal Caribbean cruise line. They posted this all in real time and people are watching. They probably did a countdown of this vacation weeks out and said when they were leaving and shit. Absolutely insane and reckless.
This is such a crazy thing to do. Cruise ships are KNOWN for the fact that crimes that happen on them can't really be prosecuted because theyre in international waters. Also. they really brought TODDLERS on a CRUISE? And expected them to not be kind of upset at such a huge change in environment? I dont think they planned this ahead of time but still geez.
For those who haven't gone one cruises.... they literally have babies nurseries for this reason so parents can have child care. Leaving their kids in the room while they slept and you watched, sounds ok to me... they are close to the room and can go back at any time. It's like watching them sleep upstairs while you're watching a movie downstairs
I mostly agree, though I think they should have done an extra prevention measure In case someone unauthorized tried to get in But it's everything combined that makes me not view this in good faith- why would you pay the money for the cruise just to have them basically get babysat and complain you have to be a parent and expect to have an adult experience... leave them at home??? It makes no sense.
They posted a video on instagram addressing this two days ago. They said someone was in the room and Abby left that part out in her story. They both looked so nervous and kept saying “um” a lot trying to cover their tracks.
There's a simple solution if you feel so resentful of your children interrupting your adults only meals - don't bring then on vacation. But then they can't complain nonstop about their kids being kids.
I literally just watched a body cam video of a lady getting arrested for child neglect for leaving her child alone in a hotel room and going to Burger King …. This is no different if not worse
THANK YOU FOR COVERING THIS!!! So far I have only seen Dad Challenge Podcast and Dustin Dailey cover this mess. I can’t have children and it disgusts me that people who claim to love their children would do something as horrendous as this. I have never liked these 2. Matt always rubbed me the wrong way and I believe he may actually be a narcissist. And as for Abby, well she’s not terrible but she plays a part in this mess too so she isn’t innocent either. These two need to go away and just not come back and focus on their children.
If they wanted a kid free cruise…they could have gotten baby sitting or asked their parents to watch the children. I’m shocked that child protective services haven’t been contacted.
This absolutely disgusts me. I don't follow these people but omg can you imagine! I also just got through watching a video about a child being abducted and SA right across the street from her home. Luckily it wasn't due to parent neglect but on that channel, there are so many stories of parents doing stupid things that harm their kids. smh Not every parent deserves children.
NO parent deserves children. No one. None of them. You can't deserve another person's entire conscious existence. Stupid sentiment that people can't stop parroting. 🙄
@@bremcdonald they might’ve not directly harmed them by leaving them alone, but if something did happen to those children, then they would be held responsible.
I think we’re gonna see a similar situation with Matt and Abby that we saw with Aspyn and Parker. I think they got married and had kids too young. Eventually Abby is gonna realize that wasn’t the life she wanted and divorce Matt. Curious what will happen…
My parents always left me alone when I was 6. They went out for dinner when I was sleeping. They never thought so much about it because I was a very well behaved child. But imagine what could have happened. They realized after some years that it was a VERY BAD idea to do that.
if you want a baby free vacation, GO ON A BABY FREE VACATION 🤦🏻♀️
‼️‼️‼️ period.
Like if you can't find someone to watch your kids,don't go then?? You don't leave your children alone. And one is only a baby right now.
This comment.
They seem to do that all the time anyways lol
And it’s not like they can’t afford incredible child care! They could have paid a nanny to watch their children at home while away, OR payed a nanny and took her on the cruise with them to watch the kids if they wanted the kids to come but didn’t want to stress over having to take care of their children themselves and just relax. They are EXTREMELY wealthy. They have no excuse. Heck, even if they were poor, there is still no excuse to leave your children alone in such a high risk environment! Horrendous!
This couple gives me I-regret-having-kids energy and every time I hear about something they did it further solidifies it for me
She likes it
Yeahh.. poor kids
i’m a selfish person so i made it a point to not have kids.

@@DaizyBlossom and they would never be honest about it.
Sounds like the entire time all they did was complain about their kids interrupting their vacation
as if there's no option for them to leave the kids with family for a week, so they can go have an adult vacation. vacationing with kids is just parenting in a different location, if that's not what you want, make actual accommodations for your kids
Yeah so many tiktok couples having kids and then being like, "wow traveling with kids is hard!"
It really does, they make having kids sound miserable.
This screams selfish! They’re young and it shows
Imagine your parents documenting a vacation that you probably thought less fun and happy like this
Leaving children alone on a cruise when cruises are known for people going missing and getting SAd is truly horrifying
it is so irresponsible!!!!

oh please, them leaving their kids alone is bad but you acting like complaining about being tired or whatever related to their kids is not normal... like, in what reality do you live in? people do get overwhelmed. stop acting like this is also something to judge them about when its not "I have healthy babies so I can't be sad or overwhelmed or complain just for the sake of complaining because it feels nice to say it out loud "
@@maymayyyy you can complain and moan all you want believing your kids unattended at the age of two years old is unacceptable. I don’t know why they even took their two-year-olds on a cruise anyway. They should’ve all just stayed at home or found a proper babysitter so just the two adults could go on the cruise. If they’re not able to make that happen, they shouldn’t have had kids in the first place. Stopped defending bad parenting.
Imagine something catastrophic happens and you’re 10 minutes from your kids, on a ship, with thousands of panicking people. Nah, dinner alone ain’t worth it.
10 mins away? how big is this ship lol? and what is this hypothetical catastrophic event?
@@bremcdonald Last cruise I was on our cabin was 15 minutes away from the dining hall. I forgot something and had to go back to my room so thats how I know. I was shocked it was so far away because with everything else going on and being out and about on the boat it didn't feel that way until I had to go directly there.
@@bremcdonaldcruise ships are huge. Dinner usually happens in the dining room and therefore away from the actual cabins. You most likely have to battle crowds and go either up or down stairs or elevators to get back to your room. Even if you take away big crowds you’re still a pretty decent walk away.
@@bremcdonald Tell me you've never been on a cruise w/o telling me you've never been on a cruise
@@bremcdonaldbro you have no idea how huge cruise ship are… to get to your cabin out of hundreds if not thousands of room is like a maze… in an emergency situation, the best thing to do is to go to the nearest emergency exit… cant imagine if they have to go to their room the fetch their kids then get to an emergency exit is kinda not possible in a panic situation… BTW WHO LEAVES KIDS ON CRUISE KNOWING 100% THE KIDS WOULD 100% DIE IF THERES IS ANY I MEAN ANY SORT OF EMERGENCY??? MY ANXIETY COULD NEVER EVEN CONSIDER THAT OPTION ON A MOVING SHIP LOL ITS BONKERS REALLY
I was a nanny for a family who told me I could leave their youngest at their house alone to nap while I went go to pick up the older one from school. Bc “it‘s only 5 min away.” Their car had been stolen twice out of their backyard. Absolutely not. I cannot imagine how scary that would be to wake up and no adults are there as a 2 year old. Also posting this while they’re still on the cruise is crazy. Now everyone on that cruise knows their children are unaccompanied
that’s crazy
Good on you for having better sense than the parents! I remember some times as a very small child where I woke up to no one in the house and I panicked every time. When you're too young to know how to read, they can't even leave you a note, and you don't have a cell phone to call anyone either (or know how to use the landline in my case). Even if adults aren't that far away, a little kid doesn't know that, and they deserve to feel secure.
Thank u for being a good nanny to that baby 🥺
They’re so out of touch. Most of us can’t even afford a damn vacation, yet all they do is complain.
Why couldn’t they hire a nanny to come with them if they didn’t wanna watch their kids?
@@sunflower4428Fr ik they make a lot of money so why can’t they hire one
This is how Madeleine McCann went missing. Her parents left her sleeping in her room, so that they could go to dinner by themselves without her. Just to come back to find her gone. Abby and Matt DO BETTER.
Madeleines parents didn’t even lock the apartment and weren’t on a ship where there’s no where to go. They were pretty much begging for their children to be abducted. Not the same at all
@@toriplayssgGood parents don’t take a family holiday and leave the kids behind on their own. My mum and dad always took us with them, or left us with a trusted adult. Even if monitors were a thing back then, they wouldn’t leave us alone.

Am I the only one that thinks they both suck? Everyone seems to be on the “Hate Matt” train… but she isn’t great either. She’s very complicit in everything, I don’t see her as a victim at all. They both give off peaked in high school, married too young and regret the last 5 years of their lives.

If this was in their home they’d be arrested for neglect.

EVEN IF YOURE GOING TO A NEIGHBORS HOME??!!! Like he so fr, that is incredibly irresponsible and dangerous. They had and have the means to have family or a nanny watch their kids while they go to dinner and if they don’t, then don’t bring your kids on vacation…
@@jenniyumummmm yes
What’s nuts to me is that the kids clubs and nurseries on cruises are generally so sooooo well done. Older kids it can be hit or miss due to interactions with the other kids but for the young young ones it tends to go really well. The fact they decided the kids didn’t like it and then resorted to leaving them unsupervised is insane
The kids were probably hell on earth to deal with no thanks to Matt and Abby’s hands off parenting style. Rarely do kids clubs call parents so often. M&A we’re probably very snarky too. Matt’s story when G was throwing rocks at other kids on the playground makes me think the kids club didn’t want them there because of their behavior. Not blaming the children of course.
@@absurdartist6346yes! Luckily I have moved on but I spent years working in several different childcare centers from daycares, to gyms, etc, and it is THE LAST resort to call the parents! To the point that sometimes management will reprimand for calling parents even when it’s warranted
They were asleep and they WERE supervised lol, they had monitors on them and were within 30 feet of their LOCKED and SECURE room. Calm tf down.
@@kimmiehamilton6993 if this is your mindset I pray you don’t have kids because leaving 2 BABIES aged 1 and 2 ALONE on a cruise ship when the statistics of how dangerous cruise ships are and how many people and children go missing is INSANE, it’s literal neglect? Please ask a judge or social worker if they think everyone should calm down because you’re tripping
@@kimmiehamilton6993lol that's actually illegal - it's called child endangerment and will be a federal charge in most states
Oh my god I honestly didn't even think about the fact that because they're INFLUENCERS and their lives are incredibly public that some creep on the internet could have been FOLLOWING ALONG while they leave their children UNATTENDED. They basically just gave potential kidnappers instructions on how and when to STEAL THEIR CHILDREN. Unbelievable.
Okay, but where were they going to go? It's the middle of the ocean 🤦♀🤦♀
@@nellieshoalsthat’s the issue. They’re in the middle of the ocean that’s scary .. you don’t know what people are capable of doing.

You seem ignorant, wishing divorce on someone you don't know based on unverified online information.
unverified? abby posted the info on her own story…
@@eloise5527They told on themselves so how is it unverified?
@@lilacflower2317 You still believe everything you read on the internet?
I bet this was Matt's genius idea because he *always* needs selfish time for himself, and despite her anxiety, Abby is too much of a doormat to go against him lest they have a fight on vacation (he probably told her that her anxiety was irrational and over the top and would blame her for the fight), so she let it happen.
she lets him call all the shots.
I just heard about this couple and watched few of their videos. It is apparent he doesn’t like her. He is very narcissistic and immature. I would hope her family calls her attention to his behavior but until she is ready to listen nothing will change. I hope the babies will be ok.
EXACTLY what I was thinking
She’s scared to lose him. He isn’t happy with his life, he makes that clear. She’ll do and tolerate whatever to keep him placated
Parents that are defending these people need to be looked into. 😅 I would NEVER put my children in harm's way by leaving them alone on a cruise ship full of 100s of complete strangers who could have ill intentions and know that they're in the room all by themselves while mommy and daddy are having dinner. If you can't afford a nanny or don't have a family member to come with you on the cruise, DON'T GO ON A CRUISE. Parenthood is hard, but there are sacrifices you have to make as a parent until your kids are old enough to take care of themselves and be alone for a while. So disgustingly irresponsible. Do better.
they’re absolutely insane and negligent
How are they in harms way if they are sleeping in a locked hotel room with the parents steps away at a restaurant watching live monitors?
@bremcdonald I agree with you.
@@bremcdonaldDo you understand that one of them is a toddler, who can literally walk on his own? He could literally do anything and all they could do is watch him do it and hope he’ll be okay long enough for them to reach to help him. You’re being way too flippant in these comments. Luckily, nothing happened to them though.
@@bremcdonaldwell the wifi on cruises are actually horrible so the FaceTime could’ve been laggy and an emergency can happen at any second so getting to them in time can be hard
I do not like judging parenting. Unless it's abuse or neglect, I don't like to. But Jesus these people have a ton of money; who thinks bringing a 1&2 year old on a cruise would be a vacation?!? Literally get a sitter, or wait until they can vocalize their needs.
Leaving your child is the definition of neglect. Not teaching children what they need to become stable adults is also a form of emotional neglect, not saying that’s them just giving an extra example.
@@catheriner6675do you sleep next to ur child in their room every night. Or stay awake and stare at them all night while they sleep. Bffr
The Madeline McCann’s case is literally the first thing I thought of when I heard what they did….
me too
As a mom planning to go on a cruise with a 4 year old and a 1 year old in November...I CANNOT imagine ever doing this let alone thinking of it. This is so selfish. God forbid you sacrifice a dinner in the main dining room. Can we stop praising these influencers??
they’re more a cautionary tale than influences or role models
Crazy too like why did you take your kids if you wanted the adult experience?? I don't get it
they fact they were posting that they were leaving their kids alone in real time is INSANE!! who knows what kinda crazy is on board that ship?!?! they’re weird.
Right?! I AGREE 💯
Matt and Abby are claiming that they never left their kids alone and that they would never leave their kids alone. The thing I don’t understand is that if someone was with them (like family or a nanny) why would you have to watch a monitor through FaceTime? The math ain’t mathin’
I mean I'd still check the baby monitors even if I left my baby with family or a sitter (hello major anxiety) but I don't know if I believe their story either
Right like they didn’t say who exactly was in the room like “oh Abby’s mom and aunt was in the room with them” or something
What scares me more are young couples who will model this parenting behavior thinking it’s okay and nothing will happen. Just because nothing bad happened to them, does not mean it will not happen to you. They were lucky, super lucky but young couples who try this, I promise you, luck will not be on your side nor should you risk it.
what is this bad thing you are referencing?
@@bremcdonaldanything that could possibly endanger the child. Too many possibilities to happen, you simply do not leave a 2 and 1 year old by themselves especially when staff have access to your room. Leaving children to go to dinner? There are so many ways they could have safety gone about it. When you become a parent, it’s always ALWAYS about the kids, even on vacation. Parenting is not clocking in and out, I don’t care about excuses, it’s our job as a parent to make sure children are safe. This was NOT being safe.
@@accioapple760I don’t have any children of my own yet but I’m a god mother to a 4 yr old that iv watch grow from being a newborn and at 2 yrs old , he could do a lot of things maybe other kids his age couldn’t , the possibilities of the danger they could un intentionally cause themselves in a matter of minutes is crazy sometimes lol , no survival instincts, this is mind boggling to me..
@@accioapple760 I still don't get what could've happened. Its a genuine question. They were monitoring them, and they were close by. Thats not checking out.
@@bremcdonald Sigh 😔 Kidnapping. Physical harm. SA. When you are on a cruise, everything is not a step away from one location to the next. That dinner was no where close to their room, it’s definitely a walk. God forbid someone came into their room, it would have taken them several minutes to get back to the room. That is several minutes too long, especially if the kids cannot defend themselves and the person is already in the room. Parenting includes any possible prevention of serious harm and if you still don’t get it, with all respect, please do not have children. That’s all I can say on the matter.
Abby's family is very religious, and I genuinely think they only got married so young because of that and... yk what comes with it. Same thing with the kids. Abby looks like she'd of been a better mom if she got to mature more but he seems so childish and like he doesn't have a single idea about how shitty he treats her. At the end of the day I really don't think this couple will last much longer but we'll see
Yeah that's the danger with having zero life experience before making big life decisions. Especially children where you cannot get out of. Like you can change jobs, you can divorce, you can sell a house but children are for life. They are married children with children and that's so sad. And they lowkey promoted that in their earlier videos too.
100%
They both have got a rough decade ahead of them no matter what happens
This!!!
It’s soo sad cause I can’t recall exactly what it was, but it was something about her body that was actually very normal but it was clear Abby had NO idea & no one, not even her own mother had bothered to tell her; despite the fact that she was expecting a child & already had one..
And then she has Matt🫥.. who’s like “oh that’s sooo weird!”
She was expected to have & raise babies despite not having a soul care to explain to her how her body works..
It’s also not the first time she’s quoted misinformation when it comes to HER OWN BODY..
That’s so fkin sad to me.
@@OoooshetriesSshe gaslights her every chance he gets. Clear sign he’s very unhappy
It BAFFLES ME that people don’t understand that your life changes when you have children! If you want to have a “kid free” dinner - don’t have children or don’t bring them with you ( and from what’s being said, they certainly can afford a nanny ) Another thing, why do you go on a cruise with two toddlers? This was a vacation they had for the two of them, not for their family.💕
bingo!
For the cost of a cruise ticket let the kids be comfy at home with a nanny! If you can afford to take them, no way you can't afford to have someone watch them
This is crazy considering the amount of missing children that go missing on cruises. This is so irresponsible and they should definitely get in trouble for this.

I hope CPS calls on them. It’d be for the best.
why the FUCK would you take two kids under 2 on a CRUISE???
it’s bonkers
Reminds me of Madeline Mccans parents leaving their small children alone on vacation. Different, but very similar actions that can lead to very serious consequences. Also, rage bating something like that is so shameful and gross.
This is why I wish more people would wait to have kids. Too many people not wanting to give up fun and games and thinking they could balance their extravagant lives and have kids- it's called settling down for a reason. Just because you have the financial means to have children doesn't mean that you are ready for the responsibility.
Having kids should require a license just like driving, it's always the most selfish, stupidest people that decides to have a bunch
As dystopian as it is I'm so inclined to agree, people are ruining LIVES - purposeful or not
Not everyone should be a parent
No, thank you.
I really can't stomach either of them.
My dad’s birthday always falls around Father’s Day and he loves when it’s on the same day.
Same!! If anything, we just do cake on Father’s Day if it’s his bday or we do a dinner that’s a combo for Father’s Day and his bday
Don't take the kids on a cruise. Duh.
Lol for real how are they complaining their kids don’t want to sit through dinner like duh?
Nothing like taking a page out of the McCann playbook 🙄
I have always wondered why the McCanns were never charged with child neglect for leaving the kids alone? Why were they allowed to keep their other kids and faced no legal consequences?
@@kitkatmccabe probably cause it was in a different country and theyre white
@kitkatmccabe it was a different time, it was more common than not for mom and dad to leave kids alone while they went for dinner. My parents did it all the time.

@@kate_6436oh shut up please ffs.
Every time I hear of Matt and abbey all I can think of is “IT GETS WORSE”
Either rage bait as you said, or the stupidest couple ever, as there are kid's clubs, nurseries, babysitting services on cruise ships. So the children hated all the services? Also, we know it isn't as if they can't afford it. Them deciding to do this means they made not one, but multiple bad decisions. Also, watching a baby monitor (facetime in their case) is different at home. You can easily run to the next room. You can't do that on a cruise ship.
I don't even think they're stupid enough to rage bait I honestly believe they think they're normal and interesting
Entitled. Affluent, white, young, attractive = zero accountability
One pair of grandparents were with them too. No reason to leave them alone!
Right!!!
Posting your whereabouts so extensively especially when we know creeps follow family pages closely , and then letting everyone know your kids are currently unattended is craaaazy
When I was a kid, and my family was staying in a hotel, I remember NEVER being able to go places without my mom or my dad. I want food? Mom or dad took me. I want to go swimming? Mom or dad took me. If I wanted to go to the children's area? Mom or dad took me. They never let me out of their sight when we were on trips. And if my parents wanted to do something alone, they would ask my aunt, uncle, or grandparents. If none of the other family members were there, they wouldn't do it and plan it for a time when my brother and I could be watched. This is absolutely insane.
This couple never has given prepared to have children vibes.
also too immature to be married. she got married before having any life experience
They give "we had kids as accessories"
The fact that she probably felt so smart for the baby monitor thing and that’s why she posted it is so fucking funny and insane
I wouldn’t be shocked if CPS comes to their house one day because this right here i have no words to describe this
The “it feels different after you have kids” is bs. After I heard that I texted my exhusband who’s my sons dad and his response was “what no. It doesn’t work like that. There was zero difference from before childbirth and after. Even if it did it’s called being a grown up and realizing what she went through and all you’re thinking about is your pleasure and not what my wife went through to have my children.”
absolutely
This probably sounds weird but I’m glad you have an ex that’s a decent man. I haven’t encountered that in my life and in my family so it’s nice to hear that there’s still good in this world when it comes to divorce and coparenting
@@notsuspicioususer4080 we agreed that just because our marriage didn’t work doesn’t mean that we shouldn’t have a friendship. He’s still one of the closest friends I have and I’m so glad for that. Him and my husband are also great friends and close too. I’m glad we have the relationship we do not just for my son but also for us.
I’m glad that the kids are safe & okay. May Matt & Abby never have to learn this the hard way like that poor family did.
All she did was complain about her kids the entire trip. As a mom of 3 whos kids are grown now...this disgusts me. She sees her kids as an inconvenience during her vacation instead of spending time with them. The kids are ALSO on vacation and she did NOTHING to make it fun for them...just treated them like they were a burden. If she wanted a trip without kids...why not hire someone to take care of them while they did their selfish activities? God knows they have enough money to do that. Sounds like she also made her parents vacation really crappy too since she kept dumping the kids with them instead of just hiring a care taker or utilizing the on site nursery.
I became convinced they're trolls and ragebaiters when I heard Matt's music, no way that he's serious about that garbage, I refuse to believe someone is that delusional
I know right, it’s so ridiculous, how could someone think it’s anything other than parody?
They're trying to live like they still don't have kid's. Matt gives me narcissistic abuser vibes. Brutal all around.
They only got marry to have sex, kids were most likely not on they marrying young plan.
being so into celebrating oneself that you get upset at ur wife for celebrating father's day and ur bday at the same time when it lands on the same day is a very common narcissistic trait. i think he's a total narcissist and she enables him.
I don’t understand why they left them alone when cruises have the option to hire Nannie’s for this exact reason.
So you'd rather have a complete stranger in your room watching your children while they sleep? I fail to understand how this is at all safer than what they did.
@@bremcdonald that’s why they should’ve never left them in the first place. That’s the whole point that you seem to be missing.
@@bremcdonaldif someone is hired by a cruise line to be a nanny I would hope they’re qualified. You would at least know an adult who is capable of helping your child in case of an emergency is there with them. You honestly think a baby is more capable of taking care of themselves than an adult just because they aren’t personal friends of Matt and Abby?
For the amount of money they have they could have hired a travel nanny 👀
some people have no common sense
Womp womp. If you wanted uninterrupted dinners and alone time you shouldn’t have had kids.
Also if they weren’t social media influencers they’d be arrested ♥️
If you want to have the freedom to do whatever you want whenever you want. DONT HAVE KIDS.
Leaving kids alone is never acceptable but leaving them on a cruise ship is absolutely insane.
This couple has crazy red flags. Goes to show how dangerous social media is cuz they seem the perfect couple to ALOT of people depending on which content they watch
6:14 SHIP CAN SINKKKKKK why is no one saying this?!
No. Never, ever leave your kids behind!!!!
So they just admitted to child neglect publicly…..
they seem like they genuinely dont like their kids :(
I’m so tired of these two it’s always something with them
Life with kids doesn’t stop.. it slows down. I think they need to remember that.
This means.. maybe not taking a cruise when your kids are so young because you want to spend alone time with your spouse. It’s impossible with kids that young. It just is.
They should’ve waited a few years til the kids were old enough to enjoy the kids club.
Like I said, life doesn’t stop - it slows down.
Great example of "its not because you can have children, that you should.." They recently had a solo trip? I get that as a parent some time alone is crucial but leaving your kids alone in a massive ship? Why get kids if you dont want to be around them. Everything they do is just for appearance, stupid influencer stuff.. be a responsible parent for a change. Not the first time they've been in the spotlight for the wrong reasons.
You're so talented, keep making videos!

I can’t even shower in the same house as my kids without freaking out. This is outrageous. The endless list of possible outcomes. This tells me they’ve done it before at home.
Madeleine McCann literally went missing under this exact circumstances!
I have been on so many cruises and I think a big point people miss here is that these ships have sometimes 15+ levels. Often the dining areas can be on the complete opposite side and elevators are always crammed and you could wait for one for 10+ mins. Yes, there are stairs, but if an emergency did occur, it would take you AT LEAST 20 mins to get to them which could be too late. We’ve brought our kids on cruises and have NEVER even thought to leave them behind in the room. One of us always stayed while the other went to get food and bring it back to the room. This is so irresponsible of Matt and Abby.
I can’t stand these two “parents”
I’m sorry, but there are some people that just shouldn’t have kids. There are SO many people who wish they could have children and they would love and protect them more than they EVER could. They do not deserve those kids
Nobody deserves kids and it's not just "some" people that shouldn't have them. Too many people have kids for selfish, arbitrary reasons and the people that "wish they could have children" could really be using all of that time and energy to care for people that are already here and struggling. Reproduction is inherently selfish and I'm tired of people pointing at the breeders that happen to be on social media going "THEY'RE DOING IT WRONG"
This particular couple is on social media broadcasting their actions so we can see it all and comment on it. Do you know what's happening in households across the world?? Across the US alone??? Negligent things like this are happening all the time and it's just not on camera. Do you know how many parents are out there having multiple kids and then leaving them alone with each other on a constant basis? Do you know how frequent it is for kids to be abandoned? Society is a shitshow and a LOT of parents are doing shitty things like this. And fuck anyone who *WISHES* they could have kids in this repugnant fucking existence.

The way people overshare is wild. Don’t post your vacations or trips until after you come back or don’t say much at all. Just by looking at the room it looks like Royal Caribbean cruise line. They posted this all in real time and people are watching. They probably did a countdown of this vacation weeks out and said when they were leaving and shit. Absolutely insane and reckless.
This is such a crazy thing to do. Cruise ships are KNOWN for the fact that crimes that happen on them can't really be prosecuted because theyre in international waters. Also. they really brought TODDLERS on a CRUISE? And expected them to not be kind of upset at such a huge change in environment? I dont think they planned this ahead of time but still geez.
He is such a child himself.
For those who haven't gone one cruises.... they literally have babies nurseries for this reason so parents can have child care. Leaving their kids in the room while they slept and you watched, sounds ok to me... they are close to the room and can go back at any time. It's like watching them sleep upstairs while you're watching a movie downstairs
I mostly agree, though I think they should have done an extra prevention measure In case someone unauthorized tried to get in
But it's everything combined that makes me not view this in good faith- why would you pay the money for the cruise just to have them basically get babysat and complain you have to be a parent and expect to have an adult experience... leave them at home??? It makes no sense.
They posted a video on instagram addressing this two days ago. They said someone was in the room and Abby left that part out in her story. They both looked so nervous and kept saying “um” a lot trying to cover their tracks.
Their influencing careers should be over. They are not the kind of people anyone should be looking up to, especially him!
I’m so glad the babies are okay. I hope it stays that way.
There's a simple solution if you feel so resentful of your children interrupting your adults only meals - don't bring then on vacation. But then they can't complain nonstop about their kids being kids.
I literally just watched a body cam video of a lady getting arrested for child neglect for leaving her child alone in a hotel room and going to Burger King …. This is no different if not worse
THANK YOU FOR COVERING THIS!!! So far I have only seen Dad Challenge Podcast and Dustin Dailey cover this mess. I can’t have children and it disgusts me that people who claim to love their children would do something as horrendous as this. I have never liked these 2. Matt always rubbed me the wrong way and I believe he may actually be a narcissist. And as for Abby, well she’s not terrible but she plays a part in this mess too so she isn’t innocent either. These two need to go away and just not come back and focus on their children.
Everyone is bringing up madeleine mccan, but i still believe her parents killed her and not some random stranger stealing her
tgere nothing with mad in the video tho
@@tianaohnana the comments do tho?
Matt and Abby need to grow up you don't ever leave kids alone no matter where you're also if you want to be kid free 24/7 don't have kids. Grow up
Also posting the room layout in real time is so crazy
1:28 why do people care 😂😂😂
Because Matt was being a jerk about it
You honestly care enough to watch the video
@@Heretobegood1 not really do know them just cause I watch a video doesn’t mean I care what they do it’s a tea channel weirdo
Dont*
i was across their room on the cruise, and i can confirm that they DID leave their children in the room alone
If they wanted a kid free cruise…they could have gotten baby sitting or asked their parents to watch the children. I’m shocked that child protective services haven’t been contacted.
One of the reasons i dont have kids is because i love travelling so much 😂
This absolutely disgusts me. I don't follow these people but omg can you imagine! I also just got through watching a video about a child being abducted and SA right across the street from her home. Luckily it wasn't due to parent neglect but on that channel, there are so many stories of parents doing stupid things that harm their kids. smh Not every parent deserves children.
NO parent deserves children. No one. None of them. You can't deserve another person's entire conscious existence. Stupid sentiment that people can't stop parroting. 🙄
How did they harm them?
@@bremcdonald they might’ve not directly harmed them by leaving them alone, but if something did happen to those children, then they would be held responsible.
I think we’re gonna see a similar situation with Matt and Abby that we saw with Aspyn and Parker. I think they got married and had kids too young. Eventually Abby is gonna realize that wasn’t the life she wanted and divorce Matt. Curious what will happen…
she def married too young
Some people truly don't deserve kids! 🤬
My parents always left me alone when I was 6. They went out for dinner when I was sleeping. They never thought so much about it because I was a very well behaved child. But imagine what could have happened. They realized after some years that it was a VERY BAD idea to do that.
