Lets get real. The "Stew Crew" should have purchased something like this. At least then, Layla would know what its for. 🤣

I assume it's the syndrome of 1st boy after 4 girls + only Stewart grandson in the entire family until his bro came along. It is also interesting how this cult makes SUCH a big deal of - a brother for our boy - and yet the 2 brothers have little to do with each other. Sure they see each other at Christmas/Easter and his brother appears to visit Knox about 1x/yr and they make IG bday posts but that's about it. His brother lives local to his parents and yet he NEVER drops his own life and runs to mommy's house for the weekend bc C&E are here again. Good luck Alyssa - Prince Rhett could turn out to be Evan 2.0.

One of the very reasons my parents (who have 5 girls) were practically praying the last two would be girls. Both had known families with a boy after a bunch of girls and every one was a spoiled PITA. My grandmother called it Prince Syndrome.

They need that boutique for creative tax accounting!

I think Z&W are fairly shrewd too. If C&E want to leave and only be involved remotely, I can see Z&W agreeing if they can take on a bigger ownership %. All of them are using BSB as their tax cover and for whatever minimal income it provides. . .

 

Tax cover for what???  To get any benefit out of writing off a loss, don't you need something to write off?  And if they aren't making the bulk of their income from the fugly dress boutique, then I can't imagine how else they're funding their, shall we say, less-than-frugal lifestyle.  There's no way they're making that much from social media with less than 200K followers, and while I guess it's theoretically possible Gil gave them a decent chunk of money for doing the show that they've prudently saved/invested . . . that doesn't strike me as super likely.  Then again, they paid $310k for a house a little over a year ago according to the warranty deed -  and there's no evidence of a mortage.  Or at least, not a traditional one (as in, one recorded in the real property records).  I guess it's possible they did some kind of owner financing / contract-for-deed kind of thing, given they were close with the owners.   

But, bottom line is they clearly spend a not insignificant amount of money - which has to come from somewhere.  For Knoxville, their house is nice, but absolutely nothing over-the-top.  100% completely average.  However, add in the Tesla.  The vacations.  The endless supply of Starbucks + fast food, facials, massages, manis and pedis, higher-end leather sofas, electronics . . . and so on.  So, either they did actually pocket a chunk of change from the show (highly unlikely, IMHO), or they're making way more than we think from the BSB, social media, or some combination thereof.  And I guess another option is that they're making money doing something we don't know about, but chances of them having some other lucrative side gig and not saying a word about it are remote, I think it's fair to say.

Agree. The only benefit that comes with a tax write off is paying less of your income in taxes.  A write off does not create income. I still don't get how they are making enough from the BSB to purchase a Tesla. But maybe it is more lucrative than we think. The trips might be gifted to them by church friends.  And all of the furniture and things like the fancy grill are probably freebees from their social media work. Tori Roloff was  promoting the same grill this week on her social media. And Tori has hinted that they will no longer film LPBW. So she must be making enough from Social media to support the family because Zach sure doesn't work. The big difference is that Tori  Roloff has around 2 million followers and Carlin has 387,000.

We've all tried to figure out the Stewarts' income. Carlin has her own Dime page, so anyone who buys a product off that page puts money in her pocket. Its almost like passive income because I'm guessing many Dime buyers go to her page for the discount by habit. At this point I'm guessing Carlin's less frequent SM Dime shills are to gain new buyers, who again will buy from her page for years to come.

Googles says: How much do you need to make to live comfortably in Tennessee? Ordinarily, $37,499 per year should cover your expenses in Tennessee. However, to really live comfortably, you need to earn an average salary of $80,548 per year to be able to cover other miscellaneous costs you might have.

I'm guessing Carlin makes at least $40,000 a year from Dime alone. So any other income from BSB, YT and other shills likely puts her way over $80,000.

Sounds like they probably do have more income streams than I'm aware of (as I have no idea what a Dime page is, for instance), and they probably make more off each than I'd expect.  And I guess it all adds up.  Just seems kind of crazy, but good for them, I suppose, if that's what they want to do.  As someone who wanted to be an attorney from the time I was 6 yo (and I am), I can't imagine being happy with a mash up of sorta work (nor I could imagine having much respect for a husband whose entire career goal now seems to be making short youtube vids and helping with some website design (or whatever it is exactly he does for BSB) , , , but to each their own.

I was actually watching some old youtube vids of theirs last night - as I was busy and couldn't reach my remote, so ended up watching whatever vids my tv randomly cycled through - and really became aware of just how very materialistic Evan and Carlin are.  In one video, they were both drooling over Zach and Whitney's GMC Denali, going on about the luxuriousness of the leather, and so on.  In another, Evan was circling Trav's Tesla, exclaiming how "sick" it is (idk why exactly, but hearing Evan say that word grates so much).  And in another, Evan surprised Carlin with diamond stud earrings for Christmas, and she actually asks straight up how much they cost, while Evan points out that the screw on backs were a very expensive upgrade.  (And in fact, she seemed super focused on - and delighted about - all the expensive gifts with which Evan had stuffed her stocking.  Lush bath bombs, and some other crap (already forgotten exactly what).  Anyway, I don't really have a grand point . . . was just very struck with the pretty stark contrast between Evan and Carlin's content and say, the videos Chad and Erin upload (and it made me wonder what Erin thinks about their over-the-top focus on expensive "stuff").  Not that Erin is the arbiter of what's okay and what's not . . . but idk, E&C's vids don't, in some ways, seem very in line with the values they grew up with (at least Carlin, can't really say for Evan), nor the values they espouse to have now.

Don't let Erin fool you. While DIY projects are typically cheaper (and nicer) than off the shelf, they're still not free. Erin (re)decorates more than Macy's at Christmas.

Farm animals aren't cheap either unless they're earning their keep in the form of eggs, milk, etc.

So while Erin's choices appear quaint and down to earth, they likely could have made different choices and been able to afford their own home by now. Chad likely could have built a profitable business in TN.

Erin is more Joanna Gaines and Carlin is more Kardashian.

Evan really needs a job. He has a video up about using Zade as an excuse to leave a party. Evan is obnoxious AF. He wouldn’t know a party if it bit him in the ass. He is getting to Jeremy Vuolo level poser.

Then Carlin complains about having two, TWO appointments for the kids on the same day. The unimaginable burden these entitled folks have. There are households where both parents work outside the home and somehow manage to meet their children’s needs. I understand Carlin grew up in a chaotic environment. But I don’t see Evan’s mom as the neglectful, clueless type.

I'm so tired of Evans voice.  "What's up Stew Crew?"  Ug.  And yeah, I thought Evan and Carlin were all about the "party party" and "go go go", why would he ever need to use his kids as an excuse to leave.  The kids stay up late or fall asleep wherever they are.  It's no problem. 

And isn't it so modest of him, now that he has his Tesla, he doesn't want to talk about it or draw attention to it.  So selfless of him not to gloat in front of the Stew Crew at how blessed he is.  So thoughtful of him not to show off his new wheels and lifestyle for his channel.  ----> yeah right.  His not talking about the Tesla and bragging about it is all a plot point.  Just like Carlin and the outfit she will carefully pick out to wear while she pitches something else knowing that she'll get dm's about what she is wearing.

So now Zade has low/borderline low iron and is on some prescription for that + high/borderline high lead. Yet his genius parents didn't realize what they were going to the dr for. They thought they were going to follow up on these issues, only to arrive and find out that no this was in fact his 15 mo well appointment and he'd have follow up bloodwork for those two issues in Sept bc they need to give the iron script time to work as well as time to see if the lead works its way out of his system. My god how will these kids survive with two such dumbass parents who don't know what they're going to the dr for - and had to call ahead to be like "we have an appt today, right, we weren't sure"?

But fear not, it happens with Carlin's own appts all the time where they show up hours late or on the wrong day. But as Carlin points out - whoa whoa whoa, we've never missed one of my appointments, they always get us in even if it's hours late 🙄. Ah to be a young white couple showing up with two kids in tow . . . . I'm sure offices in small town Tenn bend over backwards the same way when it's an unattractive 45 yr old or a person of color showing up hours late or on the wrong day . . . .

Then Carlin goes on about how it's just a thing - they say the date/time and I put it into my phone wrong, I have a problem with days/dates, as Evan giggles along. Funny how you NEVER have any problem posting the wrong link to whatever damn shorts set you're wearing that day or whatever cheap makeup you're shilling. Also Lord Headship - if your woman is soooooo dumb that she can't handle days and times, can't you - her keeper who quit his job to be with her 24-7 - be in charge of putting appts into YOUR phone?

And Evan and Layla both "caught a cough" from the grandparents' farm. Hmm . . . you'd think any cough you caught from staying in their dusty attic would've resolved in the last 17 days, no? Guess they are remaining in complete denial of the current uptick in Covid, not to mention their own sisters putting on YT and IG that their kids have RSV, Katie has bronchitis etc.

I'm not a dr, maybe Zade has low iron bc Carlin had low iron when she was pregnant. But damn do they give their kids ZERO real food? Isn't it well known that cereals like Cream of Rice which are given to small kids routinely are really iron fortified? Even things like Cheerios are pretty high in iron; to say nothing of real food like eggs. But I guess Doritos, Fritos, cheese puffs and whatever else are not like that. I mean he snacked continuously at the grandparents' farm and it was constantly a cookie or cracker in hand.

Funny also that Carlin was all - OMG should I be worried about high lead, what does that mean, where does it come from. The dr - well it can come from him chewing on antique furniture etc. Oh phew we don't have that and he doesn't chew on furniture. Uh morons you are home exactly never and aren't exactly attentive parents. Do you know the exact origins of every piece of furniture at G&K's house and the Stewart grandparents' house or what paint he's licking at BSB? And then it was explained that lead can affect IQ and "learning levels" - oh phew - he's soooo smart and cute as a button. Uh he's 1 and his parents are dumbasses, how exactly do you know that he's soooo smart?

Yes, you absolutely should be concerned. Seriously, he’s testing high for lead but they have NO clue how he was exposed?

Yes! And kids also ingest lead from soil around older houses that were painted with lead paint. Also water coming through old pipes. And wildfire smoke can contain lead.

And poor Zade is anemic because he basically eats baby puffs and bread. Of course in addition to all the junk.

It boggles the mind that two grown adults with no jobs are so horrible at managing life. There's absolutely no excuse for not getting to appointments on time. Once or twice in a blue moon? Sure, because shit happens, but every single instance? And not even ten or fifteen minutes late, but hours? That's just flat-out disrespectful. 

I'm not surprised to read Zade is anemic. Poor kid sits like a lump in all their videos, and IIRC, several posters have previously commented on his lack of energy. I feel for both him and Layla because bad eating habits are incredibly difficult to break. It doesn't seem like Evan and Carlin even attempt to introduce them to a variety of food, it's just shove a cake pop in their hand and send them on their way.

How many times have i missed a doctor's visit as an adult, never. I do it the old fashioned way. I have an appointment book that I get at the dollar store every year and when I have appointments I write them down. Hair appointments, medical appointments, appointments for the A/C service, and anything else that I need to remember goes in my little book.

 I am not so sure that C&E aren't just making up all of this "oops we missed another appointment. Isn't this funny?" Don't they get phone calls, texts and emails reminding them and asking them to confirm? I get reminders for my appointments all of these ways and they keep it up until I confirm. And no shows are charged a fee.

Ok, he has high levels of lead in his system and these two are unconcerned?  It would seem to me that they should get Layla tested as well since she is probably exposed to the same stuff Zade is, but I imagine that is too hard comprehend for these two. 

And as for them being late to appointments, the Bateses and Duggars in general think their lateness is cute.  I've had to sit waiting for appointments I showed for on time because of people like this and I have a job and a life I need to attend to. 

In pretty much every scene on the Bates show where they had to be somewhere the first thing you hear out of some Bates is "sorry we're late".  I still remember when Lawson was late for a concert Brian Leftwich had invited him to participate in.  He needed to rehearse beforehand because he couldn't hit the notes in the song he was supposed to sing, but he didn't show up until right before the show was to start.  Brian was visibly annoyed, but of course had to say the Lawson did fine anyway.

The only way they're having Layla tested is if a dr says - you know if it's a household thing, it could be both kids, we need to test her too. I love how Carlin takes the first example the dr gives - lead from sucking on antique furniture - and back of the hands it with "oh we don't have that and he doesn't suck on furniture." Uh!? Antique furniture isn't the ONLY thing that has lead. And let's not act like we are such vigilant parents that we watch these kids 24-7. My sense from Layla's affect is that she spends her day in front of the TV with snacks thrown at her when she fusses and my sense is Zade has joined her now. Meanwhile Evan is at the kitchen table on his laptop all day and Carlin is off preening in front of a mirror hawking something.

How would they even know if Zade is the kind of kid who takes a lick of the furniture or a particular toy every hour? And let's be real, these girls shop 24-7 but largely buy REALLY cheap shit from Amazon, furniture.com, and wherever else. They aren't exactly buying high quality things - they don't know that whatever they're buying has zero lead in it.

And btw half the time Zade is watched by his aging and tired grandparents. I mean the Stewart grandparents do their best but we've def seen pics where Zade is sitting in grandmother's lap and she is fast asleep after chasing the kids and feeding them all day. So IDK that they are watched SOOOO closely at the Stewart grandparents' home that anyone could guarantee that he isn't sucking on toys or furniture; and frankly the grandparents' home could have some older furniture, paint, or pipes.

Also thought it was hysterical that when the dr explained high lead can cause IQ or learning difficulties they 100% back of the handed it - oh his lead isn't SOOO high + he's soooo smart. Lol - smarts ain't that important in our cult.

Honestly I feel like it makes them feel super special and important. Just the way E&C were talking about it it was very - hey whatever we've NEVER missed an appointment bc they ALWAYS fit US in, even if we are hours late. So all those "appointments" they're for the mere plebians, do you know who WE are!?

It has always blown my mind that C&E THEMSELVES introduced their kids to cake pops, Cheetos, Doritos etc. Most normal parents have their 1-2 yr olds thinking that cheese cubes, cut up peppers and cucumbers, and whatever fruit they like is the BEST snack in the world. Bc most parents know full well that the world will introduce their kids to chips, candy, cookies soon enough - so may as well stuff them full of those good vitamins and antioxidants for 1-2 yrs while the kid isn't resisting.

I mean it's summer - fresh produce is abundant right now. Is it sooo hard to slice up a tomato or cucumber and throw some salt/pepper on it for a snack or hand the kid a plum which requires just washing it!? [Cue tomatoes, cucumbers, and/or plums on IG this week . . . .]

Meanwhile Evan takes Layla to vacation bible school this week - which at their church is an evening event starting at 5-6 pm - and she is sitting in the trunk (hatchback?) of his car polishing off a bag of Fritos before going in!? Not a tiny child size bag you'd put in a kid's lunch - more like one of those convenience store size bags which are really 2.5 servings. Uh idiots, if a kid event starts at 6 pm, you give the kid DINNER at home before attending!? 

Katie & Trav are running circles around them with parenting - low bar. Apparently H is now 5 months and cleared for baby foods and trying to grab food. They were showing Trav was holding her, holding his Chick Fila soda of course, and she makes a grab for it - tries to put the straw in her mouth. Both parents pull it away and say - no you can't have soda . . . . Meanwhile Carlin was in Nashville a week ago giving Zade a taste of her pink drink from Sbux and when he takes a sip and wants more, yep she just lets him have more . . . amazing parenting.

So much to respond to in your post!  My comment is focused on the never getting the right days/dates, etc. Does Carlin have dyslexia or what the one with numbers called, dyscalculus or something like that? (I know dysgraphia has to do with writing). Or is it “just” being immature or irresponsible?

Mostly being immature and irresponsible.  She was homeschooled by her lazy mother. so if she does have a learning disability, it was never identified let alone treated.  Just like Carlin is sure that Zade has suffered no ill effects from the high levels of lead in his blood.  He's only a year old, but she can see he is 'smart'.  Case closed. No need for professional evaluation and follow up.

Sadly Carlin and Evan are also lazy as well as immature & irresponsible. They never should have had a honeymoon baby, a few years as a young childless couple might have helped them grow up. But the Bateses are all about babies & more babies. Hopefully someone in Evan’s family will try and explain to the Stew Crew that they shouldn’t blow off the anemia or lead test results for poor Zade.

Are we sure Evan's family is any smarter? There's plenty of 'normal' or typical families out there who dismiss a lot of medical advice and treatment. Not for any particular reason - they could be clueless, careless, not so smart, anti medication, etc. I can see the elder Stewarts falling into the clueless or not so smart category.

I think it’s just not important enough to her so she’s not motivated.
