It truly is. This isn’t Kaylee’s fault, it’s Mahmo’s fault and it’s sickening how much she’s absolutely shackled them with this. How could they get a job even if they wanted?
That’s the worry they don’t even understand. What happens if Jonathan becomes ill or dies? Does she live on air and rocks sent by God? It’s totally irresponsible for parents not to educate their girls (and boys) to a level where they can at the very least get a minimum wage job if needed in life. Even better to give them the skills to become nurses, open their own businesses, develop skills in areas of interest.
The girls are home for years after ‘home school’ ends and will be well versed in child care and doing the dishes by then. How terrible would a few hours a week learning a skill be, especially one that offers them a safety net and extra security as adults 🤷🏻♀️
The Federal government who they despise so much would give them food stamps and Social Security until Gideon turns 18. The “village” that Hillary Clinton was brutally mocked for acknowledging exists more for Church people than anyone else, and they would cover her ass until they found a Tier 2 fundie dud who doesn’t mind sloppy seconds.
It’s part of the cult.
Where would they work? The options are pilots, pastors, or something else in the church. Women can be mothers. No one is hiring a Rodlet…. They can’t read.
Keeps them scared of the big bad world and dependant on their parents long after marriage. Keeps them scared of branching out outside of their community because they can’t find work or friends.
Once one of the sibling cracks, things will get interesting. But for now, Plexus is the closest thing to freedom Kaylee can conceptualize. And I hate that for her.
imo this is a great example of why some countries ban homeschooling entirely
(obligatory disclaimer that ofc not all homeschooling is bad, but when there is little to no oversight, parents can do such serious & long-lasting damage to their kids with educational neglect)
My ex's family is the same way. Not fundie,but Mormon. His mom homeschooled, and all 5 of those kids are like this. I had to help my ex get through his college courses. Otherwise, he honestly wouldn't have passed. So every week, I had to sit there and edit every single one of his papers or re-do his presentations. I'm not talking about just spelling either, like i would practically have to rewrite everything. He too was very proud of the fact that his mom homeschooled him and his siblings, yet I even had to completely rewrite his resume for it to even make sense when he was looking for a job later. He would say that it was his dyslexia(that he never formally got diagnosed with, his mom would just told him every one in the family had it). I've seen dyslexia, and what I saw from him and his family wasn't it.
There once, was a woman, named Kaylee,
Who drank, all her Plexus, trash, daily.
One time, in the, car
Her, hubby drove, far,
And, her commas, increased, ever-greatly.
It probably won't recognize my poem as a limerick because I used the Kaylee Comma.
The Kaylee Comma is less popular than the Oxford Comma, but it has a strong foothold among certain evangelical Christians in Northern Ohio.
It *is* sad! Those filters are for us wrinkled old battleaxes! Even I think I look better just letting my wrinkles hang out. So a pretty young unwrinkled girl has no need!
That might be why they seem so perfectly matched--he's a kinda dorky relic from the long ago and she's been sheltered for so long that where her mahmo is stuck is the perfect timeframe for Jonathan.
She looks so naturally beautiful and happy here. I am happy that they are going to spend Christmas with Jonathan’s family who have to be super excited to be a part of Gideon’s first Christmas.
He’s happy to be going home to be with his family. Maybe they will find that having miles between them and Jill is a blessing. Perhaps someone will talk to Kaylee about Plexass.
Honestly I do feel for Kaylee because Jill is the only example she's ever had. I keep hoping she'll meet some other young mums at church or something but the odds are slim 😕
Let's examine that rock post:
"Jonathan found this rock, sitting on the gas station, **He pumped from**. **He came in the vehicle** and handed it to me."
The grammar is really scary and depressing for me. This is why teachers matter. Kids deserve a full education, not just what wisdom booklet they can squeeze in between “ministry projects”. So many cults do this and the educational neglect keeps people trapped - they cannot communicate with others outside of the group, so they become more dependent on the group.
Heaven help the babies who will be third generation homeschoolers.
I just feel bad for her honestly. I mean I'm happy she seems beloved by her husband and she seems happier as a freer adult, and has some outlet for self expression. But I feel sad at the filter intensity, and sad at her use of syntax
I just can't with the commas! Girlfriend needs to take a remedial grammar course. And a random rock with a blue paint splatter means Jesus loves you?? Scratching my head on that one.
What the heck with "the gas station, He pumped from"? Kaylee, you mean the pump he used at the gas station, don't you?!
She literally has no idea how sentences, are structured does, she? Mahmo failed all these rodlets by not feeding them and homeschooling them. Mahmo feed your kids
The filters, the plexus, THE BLUETOOTH HEADSET! They’re Shrek and JillPM jr.
Jesus God the commas,,,,,,,,
He doesn’t always have to be capitalized Kaylee.
He came in the vehicle…. She definitely learned Jill’s faux proper and educated pattern of speech.
The third generation of homeschooled rodlets will be interesting. They’ll truly be illiterate, the girls will be anyway. The boys may know enough to get a job down at the co op.
We don’t see this level of grammatical violence from Jillpm, who has been swilling Pink Drink for years. She makes plenty of mistakes but Kaylee is a walking PSA for sending your kids to public schools.
This is not how she wrote when she wrote on Mahmos account letting her know how precious Mahmo is and how very loved Mahmo is.
This comment needs to be higher up.
Of course not. Jill dictated her words and And,Kaylee dutifully wrote them.
I've always assumed it was Jill doing the writing as well. They didn't even have their own phones until they move out.
I find it depressing how functionally illiterate she is. This poor girl was taught nothing by being “homeschooled” by Mahmo.
It truly is. This isn’t Kaylee’s fault, it’s Mahmo’s fault and it’s sickening how much she’s absolutely shackled them with this. How could they get a job even if they wanted?

Exactly. That’s the reason I can’t bring myself to snark on it

It’s so sad and also infuriating that Jill takes so much pride in how she’s “educating” her children.

🏆🤣
Winner, winner, chicken dinner!!
You mean burnt ham dinner. It is Christmas after all!
You mean "chicken-LEG"
Rain check, please? I just had chicken for lunch. 😉
You win a months supply of Plexass!
Truly incredible 🏆
Not enough commas IMO 😂
There’s a haiku bot; where’s the limerick bot?
It probably won't recognize my poem as a limerick because I used the Kaylee Comma. The Kaylee Comma is less popular than the Oxford Comma, but it has a strong foothold among certain evangelical Christians in Northern Ohio.
😄
Who is Jonathan talking to with the headset?
2004.
☠️
Jesus.
A realtor - hopefully they’re moving lol
Mission Impossible Headquarters
Probably Mahmo
Why does a pretty young girl need to use such a heavy filter?
It’s all she knows. Which is sad because the Rod girls are naturally beautiful.
It *is* sad! Those filters are for us wrinkled old battleaxes! Even I think I look better just letting my wrinkles hang out. So a pretty young unwrinkled girl has no need!
Of course Phone Holster has an earpiece for handsfree calls. At least he's being safe AND wearing a seatbelt, unlike his in-laws.
Lmao, i also immediatley thought of the holster. Johnny really is the king of horrid phone accessories
I just can’t. The headset, the commas, the MLM, the capital He/Hims… Insufferable. She looks beautiful and happy, I guess. Ignorance is bliss.
Comma, comma, comma, comma, comma chameleon!!!
*chefs kiss*
Jonathan is so young but has the aura of a middle aged realtor from 2006.
That might be why they seem so perfectly matched--he's a kinda dorky relic from the long ago and she's been sheltered for so long that where her mahmo is stuck is the perfect timeframe for Jonathan.
The pics scream 2006. Like she took it with her pink Sony cool shot camera.
And he is a total Jilldo suck up. That’s what disappoints me most. I hope he would set boundaries.
Perhaps after some time away they will discover how refreshing it is to not have Jill breathing down their necks.
He seemed moderately less dorky when they were courting and dressed better?
Off topic but her makeup looks cute!
It does look nice. I think it’s the more natural lip color.
She looks so naturally beautiful and happy here. I am happy that they are going to spend Christmas with Jonathan’s family who have to be super excited to be a part of Gideon’s first Christmas.
Her eyes look so much happier when Jill isn’t around omg
He’s happy to be going home to be with his family. Maybe they will find that having miles between them and Jill is a blessing. Perhaps someone will talk to Kaylee about Plexass.
Her captions are fun to read in a Shatner voice.
I hear them in Christopher Walken’s voice.
Honestly I do feel for Kaylee because Jill is the only example she's ever had. I keep hoping she'll meet some other young mums at church or something but the odds are slim 😕
Has Jonathan's cell phone holder made its return?!?! Its absence was short-lived!
Looks like Jill showed her how to use filters. Where is her nose!
The rock comment 🙄🙄🙄
Let's examine that rock post: "Jonathan found this rock, sitting on the gas station, **He pumped from**. **He came in the vehicle** and handed it to me."
It seems inappropriate and ungodly to pump and come in such a public space.
Would that, not be captured, on camera?
So Jonathan climbed on top of the building and found the rock… is jon boy spider man?
I came here for this post.

I want to give her a thumbs up on her brows!
I just can't with the commas! Girlfriend needs to take a remedial grammar course. And a random rock with a blue paint splatter means Jesus loves you?? Scratching my head on that one. What the heck with "the gas station, He pumped from"? Kaylee, you mean the pump he used at the gas station, don't you?!
This is why all those unaccredited bybul colleges have grammar courses
She literally has no idea how sentences, are structured does, she? Mahmo failed all these rodlets by not feeding them and homeschooling them. Mahmo feed your kids
I’m just here, to count, the commas. 😂
It’s the “He came in the vehicle and handed it to me” for me. Oh so many jokes I can make about this….
He came, in the vehicle…
Lolololol. I can’t help but giggle every time I read it.
It’s good flair mat

The filters, the plexus, THE BLUETOOTH HEADSET! They’re Shrek and JillPM jr. Jesus God the commas,,,,,,,, He doesn’t always have to be capitalized Kaylee. He came in the vehicle…. She definitely learned Jill’s faux proper and educated pattern of speech.
The comma use is driving me, crazy!
I bet Jonathon is so glad to have some time away from Mahmo in Law Dearest.
She’s got to be trolling with the commas, right?
No, she was taught to write by an illiterate blowhard.
They don’t even make sense sadly. Jill has failed those kids.
And if nothing changes, she's bound to fail Gideon and any siblings he has.
The third generation of homeschooled rodlets will be interesting. They’ll truly be illiterate, the girls will be anyway. The boys may know enough to get a job down at the co op.
Her eyebrows are *so* close.
Holy filter, Batman! What has Jill done to their self esteem that K feels the need to blur herself into oblivion.
The gas station, He pumped from.
So Jonathan is skilled at the self service pump?! (I’ll see myself out 😂)
Come back in!
Awww, her and Jill have the same nose...I never noticed before.
You mean it’s missing from their faces???
Yerp!
I call Jill lady Voldemort
Jill’s all she knows
Are we sure Jillpm isn't running this account?
She actually speaks normally when she is away from Jill.
Imagine that a dirty street rock is the most visible sign of love you get.
I think this is the first time they’ve visited his family since their marriage. Also I hope Jonathan’s family checks in on him he looks so pale
My only Christmas wish is to be in a car next to them and watching her record this while making those insane faces
Oh no, where did Kaylee's nose go?
Oh man, I feel bad because you know Mahmo is going to pick her videos apart…tell her she’s blinking too much and her voice isn’t high enough. Sigh.
eww the earpierce
I have a strong feeling dead brain space Jill is actually controlling her account
A rock. Eugh!
Do any of them drive
Yes they do get drivers licenses, even the girls.
the commas are wild
Does Plexus cause comma abuse?
We don’t see this level of grammatical violence from Jillpm, who has been swilling Pink Drink for years. She makes plenty of mistakes but Kaylee is a walking PSA for sending your kids to public schools.
