The eldest daughter was very insightful of how hard it must have been for her mum to do it. She was also appreciative and relieved to have a clean space. Very mature girl
Laura, you are so mature, insightful, and kind. You received Adam's "suggestions" with aplomb and grace. I have seen no one on Filth who have behaved as well as you did when furniture was going to the skip!! God bless you and your beautiful children. I hope you can continue to clean and declutter the rest of your home and keep it that way!!❤
@Elizagrace9 So you obviously didn't know that Laura was arrested the following day for commandeering the dump truck and emptying it out on Adam's lawn, before throwing a brick through his bedroom window? She spent the next 10 years in the high dependency ward at Fitzory Asylum for the Criminally Insane.
No, I did not know this. I'm in the U.S. Thank you for letting me know. Sad situation. I'm a retired psychiatric RN so it's interesting to see her behavior with Adam and then hear what happened afterward. Since I'm told by another commenter it was filmed 15 years ago, I hope she and her family are on the road to recovery.
Agree. And having the children must have made it so difficult to keep up with housework too. It’s a lot of work to be the primary parent. She said she had a clutter problem before the divorce too so it was only amplified by that huge change in her life. She was probably very depressed and unmotivated to clean. She cared more about spending time with her girls bc that’s probably what gave her joy.
@@happydays3678 From what I’ve heard, these are people who put things away when they use them. I know nothing about it myself. I’m the one who throws everything into a laundry basket, cleans the surface, then puts it back on the table. Because I need the laundry basket for..laundry.
I wish he could come pay my home a visit, I suffer a debilitating condition called fibromyalgia, and really started to suffer from initially chronic back pain about 7 years ago after having my youngest son then went through some really hard times that effected me so much emotionally, and yes my home just got more and more disorganised, now with my condition it's like mission impossible, I can only do so much at a time, the more I do the more pain I will suffer the next few days and then the work I've done you wouldn't even know I've done it because it's a mess again, but he definitely is right my home being disorganised does effect how my mind thinks and feels
I have M.E and Fibro and understand completely what you are going through! Before I got the flu that caused it I had run the women's 10k! I have a good day and try to get everything done and then I'm bed ridden for days! I've learned to pace myself - my nan used to watch tv and every time an advert came on she did one small thing then sat back down - it works for me! Don't be ashamed to ask for help! My friend comes and we chat, drink coffee and sort everything out! I also rest completely when my body tells me to. Gabapentin has been a life saver for me and I'm also on anti depressants - they calm my mind and help to relax my body! Gentle hugs x
I think they both got something out of this. I am more like Lara myself, as I have too much stuff and don't do a lot of cleaning when I don't use the areas in question, however I am very clean when it comes to the kitchen and where I clean myself and sleep. Sometimes some areas just get overwhelming and I totally agree with her way of seeing things when it comes to spending more time with the kids. People can be overly obsessive. Adam did end up taking away something without realising it when he made his comment - he slowed down, paced himself at home and does a little less. People shouldn't feel their homes have to be pristine. No-one expects that of anyone. I liked the personalities of both people in this one. Sometimes that is not the case when people are from opposing viewpoints in life.
So wheres her social worker? Clutter cant be helped if no space ..but theres no call for having so much filth around children, she said it herself, more to life than cleaning NASTY!
I wonder if the producers tell all of the “organized/clean” people to always take a break and step outside so that they can get a mini aside interview for the storyline? Or if by and large the “clean” people in the meet-up situations at the “filthy” person’s home all genuinely need a minute away and the producers just use that as a moment to ask a few questions. The smell of soy sauce making him sick to his stomach just seems a little unbelievable (soy sauce is just a food smell, not a bad smell) so I wonder if it was scripted? Or if the lady being super casual about the bottle dropping and shattering that actually triggered emotions and his anxiety to where he needed to step away. If you ask me him genuinely being too freaked and needing a break would have been when they found the dead mice in the cooking and eating space. The way it’s edited/portrayed he needed a break when soy sauce spilled but didn’t run away when they found the dead mice??? Okay…
I used to live with my mum, she had a house similar dustwebs mess clutter out of date food. 12 years was enough for me I moved out and I was so glad. Sorry mum.
12 years!!🤢 plus Has anyone tell him the pictures were already straight. Someone pointed out my OCD tendencies and then I realized I was overdoing it, and I had never never done it again.
I bet his teeth drive him crazy. I bet her teeth drive him crazy. He spends so much time cleaning and straightening stuff in his home and then he goes to the mirror and sees how his teeth aren't straight and will not be easy to straighten and then he comes to such a mess of a house and this lady has beautiful, straight, perfect rows of ivory in her mouth.
Listen, I know it’s not easy to raise to kids by yourself (came from a similar upbringing as the single mom) but my mom cleaned. She taught us to have a balanced life.
I had someone do this to my house. Only I didn't consent to it and my house wasn't even close to being dirty. I just wanted someone to mop the floors and clean the shower and they did what this guy did 😅
Really wonder about her history. Like the childhood she experienced cause she seems completely blind to the filth. The things she says sound more like excuses she's created for anyone else, but she really acts detached from it all. It seems like she reached out for the sake of her kids so that's positive Edit: they say she divorced 2 years ago but the house hasn't been cleaned for 12 years? He could've cleaned even amongst the clutter that sounds more like hoarding
I have ptsd and bi polor ❤❤ I keep a gorgeous modern clean home ❤❤ makes me feel happy like I'm accomplished something had a fab clear out of stuff ree done my wadrobe huge glow up just need to add lights ❤❤
My opinion… the cleaning guy had a hard childhood, his caregiver didn’t use free dental services when he was a child so he’s stuck with grotty teeth, clearly had issues in his own home growing up so needs to have control and not much around him. Poor lad.
I wonder what the bedrooms are like. If you're blessed with having children, please keep your house clean and tidy . That is the very least every child deserves. If you can't or won't do that, then don't have children . No child or animal asks to be born, and none wants to be brought up in filth. It's always the children and animals that I feel so sorry for.
Her talking about the piece of furniture where she had memories with her ex husband before the children were born really moved me, Adam was being insensitive with his criticism which I think based off his facial expressions showed that he felt bad. This woman is amazing and a single man with no kids could never understand
The eldest daughter was very insightful of how hard it must have been for her mum to do it. She was also appreciative and relieved to have a clean space. Very mature girl
She’s very grown up!
Laura, you are so mature, insightful, and kind. You received Adam's "suggestions" with aplomb and grace.

I hope you can continue to clean and declutter the rest of your home and keep it that way!!❤
this was filmed more than 15 years ago lol
Oh no! I sure didn't know that. I'm shocked.

Shocked that Adam doesn't recycle those plastic cups and bottles. Nice outcome at Laura's! The kids needed that cleanup and Laura too.
This is about ten years old so hopefully he’s changed his ways
What?! How many plastic cups must Adam go through in a year? Frankly, the mind truly boggles......🤔🤔🤔
The way her daughter asks “are you okay” she knew the mum struggled and she didn’t care the house was clean she was just worried for her. ❤❤
I think Laura is still grieving over her divorce.

Lara should be eternally grateful and I sure hope she is motivated to keep her place clean.
It may be dirty but at least it’s organized I’ve certainly seen worse in my time alive if I’m being honest.
I’m clean, but “messy”. The surface will be cluttered, but no dust under the clutter!
This is not an excuse.
Organised? You have to be joking. 😮
Organised?

Adam is such a gentleman. Clearly he’s uncomfortable but remains so polite
So cutebhow rhe girls are so appreciative of the clean house.

Im exactly the same , fibro and ME , i used to be so clean, i was forced to lower my cleanliness standards so much 😢
Sending hugs 🤗.
One of the many reasons not to have children
@@sosososososo123 I also don't want kids, but your comment is a bit heartless towards the OP.
Looks great. Well done Adam helping this family.
dang, I would hire him for myself. That apt looked fantastic at the end

Sometimes the meeting of opposites can create positive results for both🙃
Them poor kids having to grow up in that mess!
* those
🤢Ewwwww stinky pickled onions, over a year old and she ate one🥴!
The SOUND it made!!!
🫣🤢🤢yeas my teeth-nails went up seeing her eating it 🫣🤮 .
🤮
Laura well done on making a massive change to your home you should be so proud of yourself 👌
Great job love the transformation!!
So wheres her social worker? Clutter cant be helped if no space ..but theres no call for having so much filth around children, she said it herself, more to life than cleaning NASTY!
I wish my son was neat and tidy. He's a gentleman.
Im sweating ...i cant bare it !

If it is years old, which lots of the food was... it would stink, but the mouse looked dehydrated, it would've had much of a smell.
If u keep a clean home I promise going into a dirty home overwhelms you
I would love to help people who are struggling to declutter and clean.
2:13 The state of that front door.....
Oh no a rainbow!!!
Lazy as can be. Not to clean a kitchen for 12 years? Horror!
I used to live with my mum, she had a house similar dustwebs mess clutter out of date food. 12 years was enough for me I moved out and I was so glad. Sorry mum.
Poor little animal..😥😥😥
12 years!!🤢 plus Has anyone tell him the pictures were already straight. Someone pointed out my OCD tendencies and then I realized I was overdoing it, and I had never never done it again.
I don't think anyone actually lives there, I don't know how they can.
He’s not doing anything but talking, cheers to her for putting in the work
Damn m feeling itchy watching how messy her house is ..
КАК Я ЛЮБЛЮ ТАКИЕ ПЕРЕМЕНЫ, СПАСИБО 🌷 ЗА ПРЕКРАСНО-ПОУЧИТЕЛЬНЫЙ РОЛИК.😃👍💯
Another masterpiece from you!
I miss this series
Sorry someone needs to call CPS that house is nasty
Poor guy.
Awesome 👍🏾 job 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾
Those kids are old enough to clean! I abhor a clutter mess and filth. Hope she keeps it clean, but I wouldn’t hold my breath.
I bet his teeth drive him crazy. I bet her teeth drive him crazy.

She might have dentures.
There is not much straight about him...
I also think he bites his fingernails.
He is good looking and kind
@@marcel9568so straight men are supposed to be filthy? And now yall wonder why women find yall repulsive
Listen, I know it’s not easy to raise to kids by yourself (came from a similar upbringing as the single mom) but my mom cleaned. She taught us to have a balanced life.
It was not too bad. There were many worse on this show

Haha my son keeps it’s even on tv n I keep them at odd 🤣🤣 n yes having OCD is a blessing.. m glad I have it too
Just read that if you are having trouble cleaning- watch cleaning videos!
Cleaning videos definitely help me to want to clean.
If you havent got space, you cant be clean. Impossible.
hoarder vs OCD
Love me a clean king !
The paint color choices don't help with a clean look but l do love the front door!
I throw food items away the day after best by date.
That woman is amazing!
The first guy……braces would be a good investment. If he was as obsessed with his teeth as he is with cleaning he’d be the perfect man.
Make a mess of the planet with plastic
I have ptsd and bi polor ❤❤ I keep a gorgeous modern clean home ❤❤ makes me feel happy like I'm accomplished something had a fab clear out of stuff ree done my wadrobe huge glow up just need to add lights ❤❤
Keep up the good work!
Shame about the Georgian chest of drawers 🙄
Adam is a nice and good looking guy but his teeth are in desperate need to be done. Laras house is a mess but she has perfect teeth.
The single mom and adam should get married ❤
I think that Lara has turned gay as her front door is painted in the gay colour's.
@@ChillToMusic87 rainbows don't just resemble being gay, and one does not turn gay.
My opinion… the cleaning guy had a hard childhood, his caregiver didn’t use free dental services when he was a child so he’s stuck with grotty teeth, clearly had issues in his own home growing up so needs to have control and not much around him. Poor lad.
Nasty you have kids clean that crap up. Soo lazy!!!
❤❤❤❤in a year!
So disgusting .😠
I wish you'd come to my house and help me
What is she clean? He has to clean.🤨
Gorgeous girls 🥰.
Clean your fixing house..some people are just dirty and lazy...
Terrible mother
👏👏
I wonder what the bedrooms are like. If you're blessed with having children, please keep your house clean and tidy . That is the very least every child deserves.

Every like this comment gets, that's how much cleaner the house gets 🎉
Long term, not a bloody chance that is going to last!. Not a chance
hopefully she has people around her that will not be so nasty and negative.
You will not live forever... So by your logic your life is pointless. Congratulations! You just wished yourself out of existence.
Her talking about the piece of furniture where she had memories with her ex husband before the children were born really moved me, Adam was being insensitive with his criticism which I think based off his facial expressions showed that he felt bad. This woman is amazing and a single man with no kids could never understand
lol i mean most men would divorce her living in that filth is not enjoyable especially long periods of time
she said, i can feel your disgust !!!
you can tell Adam wanted to get a shower after leaving that house for the first time
she said that jared onions were more than a year old and still ate them!!!
Adam went outside for 20 minutes and changed his clothes lol
W ADAM!!!
If Laura had any sense, she won’t take any advice from him. It did need cleaning but it was soulless when he left 🙄
That's ridiculous! Her place was filthy and a health hazard. Shameful where there are young children.
There was shit everywhere....
@@happydays3678 Very true but that can be cleaned - he is suffering from OCD - very difficult to deal with
You’re so in order, why are your teeth are not in order? 😂
This was filmed before Turkey teeth became popular
Why doesn't he fix his teeth????
I was going to ask the same thing….If he’s so pedantic about things being straight🤷♀️
Single mother...that's all you needed to say, and everyone knew the state of the home.
