I am wondering how it is that these two qualified for another home. It looked like they financed it in part. They own another home in NJ which I believe is rented. My husband and I had a hard time WITH JOBS, to qualify due to owning another home in another state which the mortgage company considered an expense; repairs/ taxes etc. This didn't seem to be an issue for these two. I wonder why that was. Gil and Kelly must be amazed at the contrast in finances when compared to how their own children grew up in borderline poverty, IMO. Most of these childrens' lifestyle just doesn't seem to add up to not working traditional jobs.

Paine "Construction"? I think his "company" is mis-named. Does Chad build residential homes or commercial properties? No, he is a handy man. Nothing wrong with being a handyman; there is a need for this..but I think being an unlicensed, seemingly uninsured tradesman would lead to not being hired by most people. I have hired handymen many times in my life and unless they were licensed and insured..they would not be considered. Chad needs to open his eyes and look around the world...THE WORLD in which he lives. He seems to be unmotivated IMO. Unless a job drops in his lap, he's not actively seeking employment...does he advertise? Does he have an ad in their sweet church's bulletin? Other church bulletins? Is he on the internet? I doubt it. There are some great comments here and I am enjoying reading your opinions.

I watched this video of them signing off "for now". I got the impression that Alyssa blamed insulting/put down comments towards her children as the main reason. I don't know of viewers putting her children down...what I have seen are comments putting HER down for her poor treatment of Allie. It's obvious even to me that Alyssa does not "like" Allie the best. Alyssa needs to re-evaluate her own behavior.

I watched Trace's video of Gil's birthday. He was speaking to Erin about how she's not coming back to TN. Erin admitted to crying a lot about it and that she'd rather be in TN. Trace spoke about purchasing some land and maybe they could purchase together in TN and share it. Erin jumped at this. She was VERY enthusiastic about HIM finding the land and offering this suggestion to Chad. How is it that she also said they hope to buy next year...what will change in their financial status that they could qualify to do this? I think she lives in an unrealistic state of mind. Nothing wrong with hoping for better but you have to be actively working towards it. I don't see any of that in the Paines. I agree that living in an actual neighborhood can be good for their children; IF the allow them to meet and play with any children living there. It must be local to where they moved from because Erin stated that they love their church and will be able to continue to attend.

I completely agree that the wedding party entrance was ridiculous. Act like adults.

Is this church local?

Sadly, I noticed how poorly Allie was treated in their Christmas "opening presents" video. That poor girl was sitting on the couch waiting to be filmed opening HER gifts. Alyssa was too busy filming Rhett who was actually doing nothing. My heart goes out to that little girl.

Erin was "bragging on" Chad about how he has been washing the dishes and doing all of the laundry for Erin since she was expecting William. Isn't he about 2yrs old now? I would think that with the family he has to financially support, his time would be better spent looking for jobs...not housekeeping for his "sweet wife". She is a stay at home wife and mother. She should be doing these household chores right after she was well with William's delivery. I don't understand why he doesn't apply for a job with the local state, county or city offices. Their facilities usually need employees..he could work his way up with a local government job, have a steady paycheck, health insurance AND retirement. Nothing sinful about this IMO. He seems to be a stubborn individual fixed on a certain way which hasn't been working so well for his family. Time for a change, I say.I agree that Erin was quite stressed and not very happy with the way life has been working out for her. She can't dare show worry or unhappiness which is so wrong IMO.

Someone stated that the Paines were on the verge of being evicted from their house. How is this true if they needed to be out by the end of December, which they obviously were? Does anyone know anything about this?

I bet this house is in Tennessee right back near Erin's family.

Biltmore Hotel tour, Dollywood....just after coming back from a first class trip to Dubai? These two are living like they are millionaires IMO. It doesn't add up. One day soon, they need to explain how they are paying for all of these things...no need for bank account numbers, etc...just explain if they are spending everything they earn from BUB and YouTubes...if they are saving for tomorrow or not...Frankly, I am tired of the trips, shopping excursions, restaurants, expensive coffees, nails, hair...etc. These two are never home. Their children do NOT have a good routine. Sadly, I see Katie following their example...I am now seeing Hailey walking around eating "snacks" all the time. She also fell fast asleep during a recent YOuTube...They were better off staying in NJ with stable influences.

Don't identical twins share the same sac? Fraternal have their own...am I correct?

I saw a video yesterday that said Jinger was going to have twins..a boy and a girl. Does anyone know if this is true?

Travis came across to me in the video that he bought it from a private person, not a dealership. Otherwise, he would not have met the person at a gas station at night to see the vehicle. He said his flight was so delayed that he arrived at his destination almost after dark. Am I mistaken about this?

I can't pay MORE to watch on these networks. I will wait until it comes out on DVD and check them out at the library like I did to watch all of Yellowstone so far, 1883 and 1923. I can wait until then. I am happy to read your comments here and see what is happening. Thank you all for commenting.
