Poor Jake. As an autistic person, I feel bad that he has those shitty parents. It’s tough enough being autistic. But then add sociopathic parents to that and it’s a nightmare. People ignore your struggles and needs when your smart. This country fails disabled people. It neglects us and allows others to ostracize and vilify us. I hope Natalia gets justice and Jake gets to be a normal adult away from his parents.

I just need accommodations and empathy from neurotypicals who instead just expect me to spend my time trying to think like them. No thanks, I have a soul. I’d rather be autistic than a sociopath.

This kid went so far under, he doesn't even know what happened. He knows he regressed, but not how. I think his sense of reality got so distorted once the suspicion of Natalia being an adult was introduced into his life and it just distorted his sense of reason.
Forget the book about the math, should write a book on how he overcame that mother... (and father for that matter). How he survived. I watched the documentary... clearly she/ he broke his spirit. The sadness in his eyes tells it all...
@@lilytyler80 for real. It’s really sad. His parents did a number on him. And I guess Natalia too, even though she is a product of abandonment and abuse.
I’d love to hear what his mother has to say for herself. Can’t wait for Natalia’s side of the story later this summer. He was abused as well. His sadistic mother making him do terrible things to Natalia. I truly hope he’s able to get the therapy he needs, and goes on to pursue his true potential! He is beyond brilliant and truly a victim in his own right.
What an Amazing kid! I'm so lost for words. I hope this young man lives an Incredible Life. He seems like such a good hearted kid too. Wish you the very, very best!
Wow I can’t believe this kid has the potential to change the way we understand this world and he was on such a good track, I can’t imagine how everything that has been going on with his family must be affecting that poor baby 💔 can’t wait for those boys to grow up and share their side of this story.

This family is trippy they have a genius son who was 13 when he went to college. Meanwhile they adopted and Ukraine girl who they thought was 8 turned out to be 22. Wtf! They are like the complete opposite. Old girl acts young , young boy who acts old wtf
Zambie Crew And all of you regardless of age, are not mature enough to see the big picture. Jake is missing out on a childhood while the parents’ motivation is to make themselves look like perfect parents by pushing him to skip all of school to only be a math-science genius and never appreciate so many other meaningful subjects that matter for human development. In contrast, Natalia was a sweet-hearted soulful girl who never had a chance to be unconditionally loved as a kid as she was abandoned and then forced to have her age altered. Natalia’s struggle was for her individual voice to be heard, her vengeance was to STOP this robot perfectionism and her aggression was her only known way to express she was very very very unhappy inside , she wanted to be a kid, she wanted to be loved, she wanted to be imperfect as she was, not have to compete with her brother Jake, and they never appreciated Natalia, they left her abandoned where if anything came out of Jake, she tried to copy Jake’s high school binge by getting her GED all by herself and instead she cried sobbed and fell into the arms of a new adopted family that finally loved her for her :(((((((((( How Sadddd ...poor Natalia .... my heart is for Natalia . Not jake’s fault but Natalia has my whole heart
Zambie Crew Both probably came from the 4th dimension. Wrinkle in time. They don’t have a problem with home being so much older but they have a problem with her being so much younger. They banked on him so ditch her.. He has the dad’s bad attitude.
Omg such a sweet kid. And terribly amazingly talented. Im in awee! Im a physics student and his memory and talent at that age. Wow. More beautiful how he wants to share it with other to let them see what he sees.
Being that he is not just very smart/intelligent but that he has savant like capabilities will always set him apart. If he didn't have a photographic memory he would grow up, continue his studies, start a career and then eventually look around and see that his colleagues are just as smart as he is, if not smarter...So the savant thing helps a lot, he'll always have that.
He was great until his parents adopted a little girl and abused her while letting him and his brother abuse her,, now he’s living in a basement in devastation from the aftermath of everything,,
Allowed, he was told to abuse her and now has to live with the guilt, like a "Nazi" following orders. Its so kuch worse to realize that you were an abuser when you've survived abuse. His poor heart. Not to mention all the gaslighting the mother did while she had sole custody
This video increases even more my empathetic support for Natalia Grace. The REAL story here to me is how an extreme devotion specific to the family’s prodigal son Jake Barnett, justified to the parents a callous will to remove their attention (as well as love and support) from much of Natalia’s self-worth and all that they may have originally had in mind when they adopted Natalia. This mentality on the part of Barnetts compromised their level of due care and support for Natalia on all accounts, in favor of promoting Jake instead. While I of course can still appreciate the positive mental capacities showcased in this 60 minutes video, this upload also now adds closure for me on how Barnetts were perhaps able to act so cruel as they were in their deeds regarding Natalia. It was to promote a favored child at the expense of another. They clearly had no business adopting Natalia only to negatively scar her childhood. She wanted to be a kid unlike Jake, cherish the social relationships Jake wouldn’t care as much to have, have diverse subjects of interest, not be perfect genius but be a unique creative little person. Aside from my thoughts specific to the Natalia case, I also want to mention that this family appears to me personally as incredibly over-manipulative even in dictating and describing Jake’s autism not the way he might approve of himself deep down in his own soul, overriding Jake’s own feelings by making some major decisions on his behalf, turning him into a sort of robot to be praised.

ESponge2000 If the oldest took up so much attention requiring them to move, I wonder why they adopted more. And disabled? Probably gov’t money to fund him.
That's Natalia at the dinner table as that clip is often used in news reports . It looks to me as though it could be the same child in front of the tv .
If the parents of this child loved him enough to get him all those therapies and educational help, why would they abuse Natalia Grace?? They had other kids too. Were they ever accused of abusing them??
Because Kristine Barnett realized that Natalia wasn't a prodigy like Jacob after she forced her to do a physics paper when she was only 7 yrs old and when she didn't behave or do as she pleased she would pepper spray her. So when her plan failed she decided to lie about Natalia wanting to kill them and had her re-aged and tried to have her committed...but the psychologists at the Mental Institution refused to have her committed because she was PERFECTLY FINE!!!
yes they are- you can see the girl at the table in the scene where they were eating. The court just issued an arrest warrant for "mom" this morning public.courts.in.gov/mycase#/vw/CaseSummary/eyJ2Ijp7IkNhc2VUb2tlbiI6Ik16QXlNakV5T1RFM01Ua3dPamswT1RBeE1qY3pNVEk9In19
Laura H if you read the full story, they kinda knew. The dad saw full on pubic hair when the girl took a bath. They believed she was a teenager but they were willing to take care of her anyway. It wasn’t until later that the dwarf girl went full on crazy that they decided fuck this bitch!
I'm from the future. He discovers he has a sister that pretended to be 8 but she has pubes and grown up teeth and smears her body fluid everywhere and wants to kill him. But also alot of other things because he has that big brain energy.
He's an autistic man who was also abused as a child. When he's free of those parents and has a good support system then maybe he'll be able to talk freely.

This comment aged horribly. The Shepherd adoption agency is suing Michael Barnett because they were not involved in Natalia's adoption. He lied. It turns out there is proof positive Natalia was a child when the Barnett's abandoned her including DNA analysis.
@@katk5462 excuse me for having more important things to do other then sit around and watch news about other people's life. However the fact that this even happened regardless of when is beyond me. Everyone including the judge of this situation that changed her age should all be held accountable. I am a parent and as many parents this should disguss u. But because so many people today just believed whatever they hear and since most people heard the Barnett's lie first they believe it regardless of the fact that they copied the plot of a known movie. I find it very sad that some people are so gullible that they would even consider that it's true. And yes since they left a child alone on her own for no reason other then they weren't getting the attention they thought after adopting her, or that they didn't need her anymore for attention since thier son was giving them the attention they wanted so they got rid of her. And made it seem like she did it. So laugh all u want it only makes me realize how unintelligent u are and clearly bored since u have so much time on ur hands to set in front of a screen.
I know several austisic children and adults that are high IQ. We know it exists. Problem I have the mother I believe is evil. She I believe and hope federal prosecuters will take a case against the mother.
The Prosecutor went to Ukraine and gathered solid evidence Natalia was a child. He published his findings online after the Michael Barnett trial. The judge ruled the jurors could not hear that Natalia was a child when left to live alone. The jury had to decide that Michael Barnet was not guilty despite wanting to vote for a guilty verdict. The rules the Judge gave them to make their decision constricted them to a not guilty verdict.
Weird. Because now he lives in his dad's basement. I'm not sure if this whole Natalie Grace thing is real, or maybe these parents got a little taste of "fame" with Jacob being interviewed and when that died down, they found a way to keep it going.
By real do you mean the claims they made of her being an adult? These parents certainly did everything in their power to up her age and nothing to help Natalia. They certainly had the situation all set up for their story. We all need to consider that its THEIR story and THEY manipulated the situation and all evidence
@@LetsPatchItUp no by real I mean she was a child. Clear as day if you watch the documentary. Plus yeah the parents did try everything they could to claim she was an adult.
Where is Jacob now in 2024, along with his brothers?? The whole story of Natalia is just weird... Where is Natalia's attorney? Where were the adoptive grandparetns, aunts, uncles...There is a lot missing in this story.... The adoptive father is a whack...I'm beginning to think this whole thing is a set up.... nothing makes sense...
Be careful what you wish for. Turns out he had some of the worst parents ever. He doesn’t even have a relationship with his dad, which considering his dad is probably for the best (as of 2023 he’s now reconciled w dad Ugh but now has issues w his mom. His 2 brother still estranged from dad)
You can't be like HIM per say, but shockingly speaking, you can actually be the smartest by making a firm decision on yourself that you will be the smartest on the world.
No. You don’t…he now lives in a basement and is severely traumatized by his families insanity. Be happy with you because most stuff you see on social media, is a facade
I wish some good person - a mentor - would take this kid - now young man - get him help, help develop his skills and lead him to a good life. He would be an asset to anyone he worked for.
Yes, they are the same people that changed their daughters age legally and abandoned her in Indiana. That type of behavior must also effect their other children. What a very sad story.
I'm still curious if the adoption scam story is true. Hoping the full details come out soon. That would also be sad- to adopt an 8-year-old who turns out they used their dwarfism to lie about being much older.
These orphanages lie all the time you don’t remember the story of this family adopting Chinese kids and one of them was 21 and raping his other adopted brothers bc he was being pimped out at the orphanage.
The girl has an extremely rare form of dwarfism which makes it difficult to establish her real age as hormone imbalance is disrupted, apparently they tend to have early period and osteoporosis. It's very complicated, this Kristine woman could be a liar.
Per old interviews & now defunct website of the mom’s, Jacob was evaluated at age 10 & informed he no longer had the diagnosis, he was “fully recovered”. So even if he “had” ASD, he doesn’t now
No one can say that this kid's IQ is higher than Einstein's. Although his estimated IQ is 160 since he never took an IQ test. It would be more accurate to say this boy's IQ is higher than Einstein's estimated IQ. Someone needs to fact check before making the claim in the description of this video. smh
@@krustycrb7182I agree My Mom used to lie to people and tell them my IQ was 170 and it wasn’t it was 120 she exaggerates to make herself look special and like she is better than everyone else it’s gross. My Daughters is the same as mine but she doesn’t have ADD or dyslexia so she is way smarter than me because she can actually use her intelligence in a meaningful way. I’m always skeptical about anything anyone says because of my Mothers strange relationship with the truth, you can’t believe a word she says, even if she isn’t outright lying she is stretching and exaggerating until the truth is meaningless anyways.
See this is why people are so stupid this kid's a genius and grade 5 to drop out and learn everything he needs to know in 2 weeks just so you can go to college that's possible Right? But it's not possible or a Ukrainian dwarf to come over and pose as an 8 year old even though she probably like 30
Hella Fancy Agreed. Don’t you get it? Barnett family didn’t appreciate Natalia’s sweet soul and deprived her of attention to make Jake their perfect robot genius who could skip all the social sciences and only do math science astronomy. Natalia was very very sad. When they did abandon her she tried to be like brother Jake though and pursue a GED all on her own because SHE couldn’t finish high school because they force changed her birth date :((((. It’s nothing at all funny about this it’s heart-breaking AF. It doesn’t take much digesting of this to more than understand the motives behind Natalia’s aggressive behavior directed only at Barnett family, not against society. She’s not a psychopath in the least. Her experience in that home was scarring and traumatizing and so so sad. She wanted a childhood, she wanted LOVE, she wanted to be accepted as she was, as a cute little Person, she craved loving attention, she valued being a kid, she could have also brought out a more empathetic soulful less perfectionist more quirky side out of Jake, but the parents made sure to not allow that to happen. She wasn’t so called perfect enough for them
lilli because some rare forms of dwarfism are associated with other related rarities such as earlier puberty. You are already dealing with someone who is under 3ft tall and that’s 1 in mega millions rare, so how can you even standardize all other faucets of this child, including the related pieces? It is rare to be under 3ft tall fully grown and with that rarity associates early puberty and with that early puberty comes emotional behaviors usually associated with adolescence, she is still nonetheless by all means a child cannot be ruled out. Sad to say human society has an aversion to how they regard the most unique individuals who don’t quite fit someone else’s mold, at first this was how blacks were once treated in the Americas, then Chinese immigrants, then people who were mixed blood, and now a unique child with earlier signs of adult features, so sadly that trend of aversion to someone who is different is still an unlearned lesson in our society. Very very sad.

Considering all the outlandish claims she made concerning Natalia and the fact she was instrumental in transforming Natalia from an 8yr old into a 22yr old, the claims she made about her son ought to be re-examined as well now that we have the benefit of it being Years later.
Yeah :(
This kid went so far under, he doesn't even know what happened. He knows he regressed, but not how. I think his sense of reality got so distorted once the suspicion of Natalia being an adult was introduced into his life and it just distorted his sense of reason.
His parents were deranged narcissists. He was doomed whether that little girl was adopted or not.
Forget the book about the math, should write a book on how he overcame that mother... (and father for that matter). How he survived. I watched the documentary... clearly she/ he broke his spirit. The sadness in his eyes tells it all...
3:40 is what you're looking for.

Thanks a lot

He worked under an Indian Institute of Technology graduate in his project, at SUCH a young age, that's a big deal. This kid is going places.
Straight to his dad's basement 😢
@@lilytyler80 for real. It’s really sad. His parents did a number on him. And I guess Natalia too, even though she is a product of abandonment and abuse.
I’d love to hear what his mother has to say for herself. Can’t wait for Natalia’s side of the story later this summer. He was abused as well. His sadistic mother making him do terrible things to Natalia. I truly hope he’s able to get the therapy he needs, and goes on to pursue his true potential! He is beyond brilliant and truly a victim in his own right.
@@lilytyler80 He needs to get out of there sometime soon.I think his Mom did a lot of damage to the family. Therapy would help him.
@@lilytyler80what do you mean? What happened to him? I have been following their family’s story but haven’t watched the recent documentary yet.

You were so right the Barnet Parents are creeps.
Wow I can’t believe this kid has the potential to change the way we understand this world and he was on such a good track, I can’t imagine how everything that has been going on with his family must be affecting that poor baby 💔 can’t wait for those boys to grow up and share their side of this story.
He’s 23 now and from what I hear he’s not to happy with his parents, starting with the fact they pocketed all the money they made off of him. The other 2 are also adults now, still not a peep
Go watch the curious case of natalia grace now...
@@meganmcfeeter8478 I did 🤯 that was really hard to watch honestly, poor children, all of them. And it seems like they were still hiding the ugliest parts of the story. So upsetting.
@@creaturespictures880 I agree all the children were victims of their parents.
@@smithdawn1He seems good with his Dad. His mother pocketed the money as she considered the book sales hers and not Michael's. She had promised him part of it. He got nothing.
This family is trippy they have a genius son who was 13 when he went to college. Meanwhile they adopted and Ukraine girl who they thought was 8 turned out to be 22. Wtf! They are like the complete opposite. Old girl acts young , young boy who acts old wtf
Zambie Crew And all of you regardless of age, are not mature enough to see the big picture. Jake is missing out on a childhood while the parents’ motivation is to make themselves look like perfect parents by pushing him to skip all of school to only be a math-science genius and never appreciate so many other meaningful subjects that matter for human development.
In contrast, Natalia was a sweet-hearted soulful girl who never had a chance to be unconditionally loved as a kid as she was abandoned and then forced to have her age altered. Natalia’s struggle was for her individual voice to be heard, her vengeance was to STOP this robot perfectionism and her aggression was her only known way to express she was very very very unhappy inside , she wanted to be a kid, she wanted to be loved, she wanted to be imperfect as she was, not have to compete with her brother Jake, and they never appreciated Natalia, they left her abandoned where if anything came out of Jake, she tried to copy Jake’s high school binge by getting her GED all by herself and instead she cried sobbed and fell into the arms of a new adopted family that finally loved her for her :(((((((((( How Sadddd ...poor Natalia .... my heart is for Natalia . Not jake’s fault but Natalia has my whole heart
and 1 day,they gonna meet in midbetween n converge,like case of benjamin button
Zambie Crew Both probably came from the 4th dimension. Wrinkle in time.
They don’t have a problem with home being so much older but they have a problem with her being so much younger.
They banked on him so ditch her..
He has the dad’s bad attitude.
Looks like the parents want more cool kids and they end up with kids like Natalia. They should stick to making their own.
Oh damn I didn’t even realize it was them!!!!!
Well this family just got more interesting
Omg such a sweet kid. And terribly amazingly talented. Im in awee! Im a physics student and his memory and talent at that age. Wow. More beautiful how he wants to share it with other to let them see what he sees.
Being that he is not just very smart/intelligent but that he has savant like capabilities will always set him apart. If he didn't have a photographic memory he would grow up, continue his studies, start a career and then eventually look around and see that his colleagues are just as smart as he is, if not smarter...So the savant thing helps a lot, he'll always have that.
@@aydiosmio1315 Google it...
I saw his talk on UA-cam a few years ago and I'm amazed 😳 he's adorable too
Can you imagine? As a kid wanting to please your parents because if you don’t they will leave you alone while they flee the country?
Without his mom, or another kind of mom, everything would have turned out different, for so many people, to the better. Jacob is a good boy
He's a man now. A very broken man.
He was great until his parents adopted a little girl and abused her while letting him and his brother abuse her,, now he’s living in a basement in devastation from the aftermath of everything,,
Allowed, he was told to abuse her and now has to live with the guilt, like a "Nazi" following orders. Its so kuch worse to realize that you were an abuser when you've survived abuse. His poor heart. Not to mention all the gaslighting the mother did while she had sole custody
@@LetsPatchItUp He was only twelve years old, and followed what his Mom told him to do.
"The oldest of FOUR kids..."
Turns out he really was the oldest and Natalia was in fact telling the truth about her age.
This is why natalia is mature for her age. Imagine the convos in their family room...smh...they messed her up bad.
😂
Seeing him now on the Natalie Grace special ot very upsetting. Hisbparents took everything from him.
The orphan spin off o:
Dude for real
All while this happens, poor Natalia is being abused.
I’m sure this narrator is well known in the field of journalism , but I found it a bit challenging at times to clearly understand him.
Well he is 100 yo. What did you expect?
He’s probably the right age to be in college just some sort of dwarfism that he looks younger and smaller..
joeypainter81 No that was Natalia
@@ESponge2000 and i oop-
You are funny.
@@ESponge2000 He said it as a joke.
I mean why not?
This video increases even more my empathetic support for Natalia Grace. The REAL story here to me is how an extreme devotion specific to the family’s prodigal son Jake Barnett, justified to the parents a callous will to remove their attention (as well as love and support) from much of Natalia’s self-worth and all that they may have originally had in mind when they adopted Natalia. This mentality on the part of Barnetts compromised their level of due care and support for Natalia on all accounts, in favor of promoting Jake instead.
While I of course can still appreciate the positive mental capacities showcased in this 60 minutes video, this upload also now adds closure for me on how Barnetts were perhaps able to act so cruel as they were in their deeds regarding Natalia. It was to promote a favored child at the expense of another. They clearly had no business adopting Natalia only to negatively scar her childhood. She wanted to be a kid unlike Jake, cherish the social relationships Jake wouldn’t care as much to have, have diverse subjects of interest, not be perfect genius but be a unique creative little person.
Aside from my thoughts specific to the Natalia case, I also want to mention that this family appears to me personally as incredibly over-manipulative even in dictating and describing Jake’s autism not the way he might approve of himself deep down in his own soul, overriding Jake’s own feelings by making some major decisions on his behalf, turning him into a sort of robot to be praised. I do not approve in many of the practices of this family and it’s a pity I have to draw that conclusion in spite of the brilliancy showcased in this 60 minutes and their claim to fame in handling children with special needs.
Lastly, please note I myself am on the autism spectrum, if that means anything to the reader. So I am more than qualified to speak on this subject. I wish all the best for Jake but I hope this family, as God’s children no different from any of the rest of us, can come to terms with their own imperfections, on God, on members of the community, on seeking forgiveness, and facing consequences for injustices against others such as Natalia, and ask our ever forgiving maker for redemption. I myself am imperfect, so are we all. Only God is perfect. Thank you for listening.
👏👏 Thank you sincerely for this intelligent comment. Agree with everything you said.
ESponge2000 If the oldest took up so much attention requiring them to move, I wonder why they adopted more. And disabled? Probably gov’t money to fund him.
Love this comment!
@@TheLadyaec They adopted more children after Natalia? I hope you are wrong.
Even before exiling Natalia off to her own apt, there were several family photos including all three boys, but no Natalia. She was shunned early on.

FFS that movie was based on the Natalia Grace case
@@MsSilverTulip Orphan came out before the Barnett's claims about their adopted daughter. They got the idea from wathing that film.
I believe Natalia.
Holly shit I just realized who this kid was and who he is now OMG this poor guy. IMO those 2 people are some me me me narcissistic evil people
I don't know what's worse, Krustine's taste in men or Microael's taste in women
Look at the little girl with the microphone in front of the tv at the 4:23 mark. That is NOT how a 20 something year old would behave.
That's not her
Thats not her dude.
That's Natalia at the dinner table as that clip is often used in news reports . It looks to me as though it could be the same child in front of the tv .
If the parents of this child loved him enough to get him all those therapies and educational help, why would they abuse Natalia Grace?? They had other kids too. Were they ever accused of abusing them??
The pattern of child abuse usually involves one child that is singled out and abused.
He didn’t need therapy. His mom is one of those Munchausen mothers. Then wrote a book acting like she cured him. Sickos
Because Kristine Barnett realized that Natalia wasn't a prodigy like Jacob after she forced her to do a physics paper when she was only 7 yrs old and when she didn't behave or do as she pleased she would pepper spray her. So when her plan failed she decided to lie about Natalia wanting to kill them and had her re-aged and tried to have her committed...but the psychologists at the Mental Institution refused to have her committed because she was PERFECTLY FINE!!!
He give a whole new meaning to from thee window to the wall
Wild that these people have 2 stories hovering around them.
Aren't these the same people that abandoned the 8 yr old girl they adopted claiming she was really 22?

very interested where this kid will go and what he will discover
@WestieB That's a really bad haiku
I'm from the future. He discovers he has a sister that pretended to be 8 but she has pubes and grown up teeth and smears her body fluid everywhere and wants to kill him. But also alot of other things because he has that big brain energy.

He's an autistic man who was also abused as a child. When he's free of those parents and has a good support system then maybe he'll be able to talk freely.
thank you
Who knew this family would turn out to be psychos especially the parents….wow. They are cray cray
God bless his heart ❤️!
With parents like this, I'm not surprised if he snapped and become like Kaczynski.
Hewas last seen in his fathers basement. He needs to get out of there.
It's Big Bang Sheldon in the Flesh! Yes here after Natalia case - here after hearing it in Canberra Australia! Even if the Court buggered up in accepting documents from doctors to change Natalia's age.... they are still innocent! The court ruled and upheld the rulings on numerous occasions that Natalia was an adult , they didn't abandon her even after the Court ruled. Where is all the news on the adoption agency being investigated??? These people are smart people, they wouldn't be saying false statements in the media (particularly after the Jodi Arias case) if it wasn't true as ALL statements will be used against them!
Her son might be smart because and thanks to his autism, but not them
This comment aged horribly. The Shepherd adoption agency is suing Michael Barnett because they were not involved in Natalia's adoption. He lied. It turns out there is proof positive Natalia was a child when the Barnett's abandoned her including DNA analysis.
Absolutely amazing
Why is he living in his dad's basement now? 😢
He’s a real life young Rainman!!
These all reeks of creepiness starting with the parents.
His parents need to be locked up. She was a child when they adopted her and they have lied and bullied her. I hope his parents loses custody of him.
Well he’s 21 now so lol
@@katk5462 excuse me for having more important things to do other then sit around and watch news about other people's life. However the fact that this even happened regardless of when is beyond me. Everyone including the judge of this situation that changed her age should all be held accountable. I am a parent and as many parents this should disguss u. But because so many people today just believed whatever they hear and since most people heard the Barnett's lie first they believe it regardless of the fact that they copied the plot of a known movie. I find it very sad that some people are so gullible that they would even consider that it's true. And yes since they left a child alone on her own for no reason other then they weren't getting the attention they thought after adopting her, or that they didn't need her anymore for attention since thier son was giving them the attention they wanted so they got rid of her. And made it seem like she did it. So laugh all u want it only makes me realize how unintelligent u are and clearly bored since u have so much time on ur hands to set in front of a screen.

Both of them do. Narcissists
I know several austisic children and adults that are high IQ. We know it exists. Problem I have the mother I believe is evil. She I believe and hope federal prosecuters will take a case against the mother.
The Prosecutor went to Ukraine and gathered solid evidence Natalia was a child. He published his findings online after the Michael Barnett trial. The judge ruled the jurors could not hear that Natalia was a child when left to live alone. The jury had to decide that Michael Barnet was not guilty despite wanting to vote for a guilty verdict. The rules the Judge gave them to make their decision constricted them to a not guilty verdict.
Weird. Because now he lives in his dad's basement. I'm not sure if this whole Natalie Grace thing is real, or maybe these parents got a little taste of "fame" with Jacob being interviewed and when that died down, they found a way to keep it going.
It's very real. Watch the documentary.
By real do you mean the claims they made of her being an adult? These parents certainly did everything in their power to up her age and nothing to help Natalia. They certainly had the situation all set up for their story. We all need to consider that its THEIR story and THEY manipulated the situation and all evidence
@@LetsPatchItUp no by real I mean she was a child. Clear as day if you watch the documentary. Plus yeah the parents did try everything they could to claim she was an adult.
This is gonna be a funny story when they find the adopted daughter
She is in the footage in this video, when they show the family eating together
Mislabeled: nothing about Kristine
they seem to like the attention hmmm
Maybe that was natalia's seat in university which jake took... She must have come to take the revenge 😁😁😁😁

It's mutual.
Where is Jacob now in 2024, along with his brothers?? The whole story of Natalia is just weird... Where is Natalia's attorney? Where were the adoptive grandparetns, aunts, uncles...There is a lot missing in this story.... The adoptive father is a whack...I'm beginning to think this whole thing is a set up.... nothing makes sense...

Teach him some manners to learn “Yes, sir, No, sir” or would he not understand that.
Is this the same boy who is now living in his crazy father's basement, completely mentally and physically desolate?
I can’t believe this kid. He’s going to have an amazing life. I wish I was him.
Be careful what you wish for. Turns out he had some of the worst parents ever. He doesn’t even have a relationship with his dad, which considering his dad is probably for the best (as of 2023 he’s now reconciled w dad Ugh but now has issues w his mom. His 2 brother still estranged from dad)
You can't be like HIM per say, but shockingly speaking, you can actually be the smartest by making a firm decision on yourself that you will be the smartest on the world.
@@smithdawn1 finally now he is living with him but the dad is not good either
No. You don’t…he now lives in a basement and is severely traumatized by his families insanity. Be happy with you because most stuff you see on social media, is a facade
He is not the same kid now. Natalia home life messed him up
I wish some good person - a mentor - would take this kid - now young man - get him help, help develop his skills and lead him to a good life. He would be an asset to anyone he worked for.
3:42 The Orphan is sitting next to the family mom.
Like Jake from Touch.
Yes, they are the same people that changed their daughters age legally and abandoned her in Indiana. That type of behavior must also effect their other children. What a very sad story.
I'm still curious if the adoption scam story is true. Hoping the full details come out soon. That would also be sad- to adopt an 8-year-old who turns out they used their dwarfism to lie about being much older.
These orphanages lie all the time you don’t remember the story of this family adopting Chinese kids and one of them was 21 and raping his other adopted brothers bc he was being pimped out at the orphanage.
@@TheNeeyang wtfff? Why orphanages do thiss?
The girl has an extremely rare form of dwarfism which makes it difficult to establish her real age as hormone imbalance is disrupted, apparently they tend to have early period and osteoporosis. It's very complicated, this Kristine woman could be a liar.
IDIOT, they changed her age because doctors said she is an adult with dwarfism who was cheating the system getting taken care of by the parents.
can any body tell me? is he really with ASD?
Per old interviews & now defunct website of the mom’s, Jacob was evaluated at age 10 & informed he no longer had the diagnosis, he was “fully recovered”. So even if he “had” ASD, he doesn’t now
Michael looks and acts so different today. Whatever the truth is, it’s saddening to see his life turn so far downhill since this.
No one can say that this kid's IQ is higher than Einstein's. Although his estimated IQ is 160 since he never took an IQ test. It would be more accurate to say this boy's IQ is higher than Einstein's estimated IQ. Someone needs to fact check before making the claim in the description of this video. smh
The claims about his IQ were made by his lying mother. No way does he have 170 IQ. She made it up to sell books
@@krustycrb7182I agree My Mom used to lie to people and tell them my IQ was 170 and it wasn’t it was 120 she exaggerates to make herself look special and like she is better than everyone else it’s gross. My Daughters is the same as mine but she doesn’t have ADD or dyslexia so she is way smarter than me because she can actually use her intelligence in a meaningful way. I’m always skeptical about anything anyone says because of my Mothers strange relationship with the truth, you can’t believe a word she says, even if she isn’t outright lying she is stretching and exaggerating until the truth is meaningless anyways.

@@kayemm4442 its been proven that little girl was a child and this lady is a liar.
Hella Fancy Agreed. Don’t you get it? Barnett family didn’t appreciate Natalia’s sweet soul and deprived her of attention to make Jake their perfect robot genius who could skip all the social sciences and only do math science astronomy.
Natalia was very very sad. When they did abandon her she tried to be like brother Jake though and pursue a GED all on her own because SHE couldn’t finish high school because they force changed her birth date :((((. It’s nothing at all funny about this it’s heart-breaking AF. It doesn’t take much digesting of this to more than understand the motives behind Natalia’s aggressive behavior directed only at Barnett family, not against society. She’s not a psychopath in the least. Her experience in that home was scarring and traumatizing and so so sad. She wanted a childhood, she wanted LOVE, she wanted to be accepted as she was, as a cute little Person, she craved loving attention, she valued being a kid, she could have also brought out a more empathetic soulful less perfectionist more quirky side out of Jake, but the parents made sure to not allow that to happen. She wasn’t so called perfect enough for them
@@ESponge2000 why she had pubic hair and menstruation at 6??
lilli because some rare forms of dwarfism are associated with other related rarities such as earlier puberty. You are already dealing with someone who is under 3ft tall and that’s 1 in mega millions rare, so how can you even standardize all other faucets of this child, including the related pieces? It is rare to be under 3ft tall fully grown and with that rarity associates early puberty and with that early puberty comes emotional behaviors usually associated with adolescence, she is still nonetheless by all means a child cannot be ruled out.
Sad to say human society has an aversion to how they regard the most unique individuals who don’t quite fit someone else’s mold, at first this was how blacks were once treated in the Americas, then Chinese immigrants, then people who were mixed blood, and now a unique child with earlier signs of adult features, so sadly that trend of aversion to someone who is different is still an unlearned lesson in our society. Very very sad.
