    I think as much as things should never get this bad, especially with children, pets, the elderly and disabled, we need to remember that she took that first huge step. She asked for help, allowed Barbie into her home and to video it knowing how bad it was…that’s HUGE and has to start somewhere. I know the kids will be much safer, healthier and happier as will their mom thanks to the amazing compassion and hard work from Barbie❤❤❤

    As a special education teacher I am very concerned about this young person with autism stuck in this home. I understand mom has issues with depression and I hope she continues to reach out for help. Barbie said at the outset the kid with ASD was acting out…. When they are nonverbal and they have insects crawling on them while in their home there is no way for them to express their discomfort, anxiety, and physical issues but to act out. I hate to see a kid taken away from a parent but this needs to happen in cases like this until mom gets it together.

    • @laurasara7132
      @laurasara7132 4 місяці тому +2

      It was the other teenager that was bullied until she ended up hospitalized. Not the nonverbal one. You wanting a child you know only 2 details about, removed from his family doesn’t matter. Thankfully. A perfect stranger whom thinks no further than dirty house and bugs before calling to rip a child from his family, should never have such power.
      Pure judgment, and zero realism and actual consideration. This is a solvable issue in which the video you’re watching shows HAS already occurred, due to the mother’s initiative. If you ever find yourself with that kind of power, I highly suggest you learn the long term trauma, PTSD, and sheer statical risk that comes with ripping a child’s life apart. Especially where foster care is considered. Is it worth the risk of physical abuse or SA? Are you aware a nonverbal child is 4x more likely to be seriously abused by any parent, which increases dramatically higher with strangers becoming guardians?
      You’d treat an infection with high doses of radiation because you’re too..short minded I’ll say, to see past the redness and swelling to even consider consequences of the most damaging treatment.
      You ARE in a position of some power, so unfortunately. I sincerely hope you educate yourself on the processes, consequences, and statistics of child ‘protection’, since you view yourself as fit and prepared to completely rip apart a 98% unknown teenagers present and future.

    • @JadestonePony
      @JadestonePony Рік тому +5

      As I've heard it from the channel Midwest Magic Cleaning (who did a cool collab with Barbie and another youtuber), basically hoarders have developed a neurological mis-wiring in their minds where they develop an emotional attachment to all their items, including the trash. Most of the time, asking them to throw away anything is basically like asking someone to throw away their dog or their best friend, so you can see why they have such a struggle. Sometimes though, they can get moments of clarity where they realize they can't keep living like that and need to get rid of everything, and that's when someone else can come in and help them chuck all the junk out.
      The reasons a person may develop a hoarding disorder can vary, but for some, it can carry a component of trauma from living through a period of scarcity. Having more stuff can give a sense of security.

There is a massive correlation between eating ultra processed foods and high anxiety levels, brain fog, fatigue, depression, and other detrimental brain activity.

      It can also be a food desert issue- many companies won't put grocery store in low income areas, so nutritious food can't be sourced a reasonable distance from home. Bodegas and fast food can sometimes be only option. If someone is already financially or physically challenged, traveling to where better good is available is tough. Not saying that happened here, but low income neighborhoods being underserved with regard to food is a real problem.

    I am one of those people that are overwhelmed and sometimes it’s unbelievable when I have to conquer the house, but never in my life would I want my kids with me if this was what they lived in. I have disabled child and she can’t communicate verbally her autism is severe, and this is unacceptable heath rise this is the time you need to put the kids somewhere safe, and I pray she has a plan and mental health care, this isn’t normal depression or illness and you get so overwhelmed by it all, this is dangerous to your children not just you; and she needs mental heath or this will repeatedly happen, I’m not trying to be mean this is absolutely another level of things, an I really worry when we make it ok that people aren’t getting the critical mental health care they need to succeed in the future for themselves. It’s amazing that we have people who will clean like this and I thank you sincerely I just worry when people are living there with kids and no plan for the future 😓😭

      You are not being mean, for any child to be living like this (let alone someone so far in autistic spectrum, to whom it would be literally, not figuratively, torture) it's child abuse. The younger child who seems to have had a mental breakdown, for me the bullying was probably the least of her worries. It's a systemic societal failure that this has happened. Barbie is a saint, hope she doesn't take personally what I'm saying here, this has nothing to do with her.

While he previously lived with me for 15 years, I taught him to put things away. He does that well, also does dishes and puts them away. But tomorrow I am going over to wipe down a lot things that have gotten dirty because he doesn't know how to clean.

      I've been having this debate with a friend for 30 years and, at some point, it became sort of a game. Whenever I visit her house, if I need to use her bathroom (and sometimes just for fun), I "fix" the toilet paper to over. She flips it to under at my house, but I only use the small bathroom that's attached to my bedroom, so my kids always know when she's been by for a visit. The toilet paper war rages on! 😂

      In the house that I grew up in, the basement doorway was directly across from the bathroom. One of our dogs used to grab the end of the paper and run down the stairs with it! He didn't do it very often and eventually outgrew the game, but it was surprising how far he could get before it broke off!

    What strikes me in these cleanings is that once the garbage is gone, there is very little (stuff) remaining. I guess everything that would be personal was destroyed by the bugs and garbage. It is so sad... I also just think, "what a waste!' when I see all the clothing and purchases in piles of garbage and filth. Nothing that would tell me who this person is, what they like, what their hobbies or tastes are... It's as if, the coziness that I put into my space by purchasing linens, curtains, cushions and furniture and art is taken up by garbage. The clean spaces, always seem a bit sad. The garbage, while disgusting, was at least evidence that the person was there.... just a weird observation. Congrats on a job well done none the less. You should be proud that you have made (and continue to make) such a noticeable and direct impact on the lives of these individuals.

    pay for all that food, so much junk for and take out which is expensive. Did she ever cook and where is the

    ❤ But I do have to say I disagree with not setting off fogger bombs in apartment the night before you clean or have the renters set them off before they leave their apartment.because the fog is will get every everywhere ,maybe not inside boxs of crap or deep inside bags of stuff but trust me it will kill a lot of the roaches. .first it's absolutely not fair to the neighbors living next door .when your cleaning and you have thousands of roaches running they will get into other apartments.i agree the two roach sprays I have tried didn't work the bugs kept running omg that freaked me out. So I put rubbing alcohol in spray bottle and shoot them they die in seconds. Also you can put Mr clean lemon cleaner full strength in spray bottle they die very quick .even fabuloso .I live in south Florida and it doesn't matter how much money you have or if you live in a super nice home. Or apartment roaches are apart of this place but no way I letting stay in my home. They also don't like coffee so I buy cheep coffee and put it in a bowl and place that in my oven draw.roaches carry so many types of disease's .and they were crawling on your mask. I hope you change your mind about the foggers. Just think about the other tenants living next to that apartment.well anyway I put more then my two cents in .your still an angel keep up the great work .❤
