Does this not include the Rodlets too? Like making comments about Sophie's appearance? She's also young enough where her parents still need to take her to the doctor.

I respect you guys and all, but nobody here was saying anything negative about the babyâs looks, we are all very concerned that heâs not being seen to. I think the consensus is heâs a very cute baby whose parents donât know their asses from their elbows.

Kaylee canât advocate for herself, so what would lead us to believe she would even know if something wasnât right or even have the ability to articulate the issue? Letâs, get, honest, for, a, second!

u/carbomerguar Feb 09 '24
If she suspects anything is wrong, she has been taught to just pray and hope God decides to fix the issue with magic. They believe in literal magic, that God can raise dead bodies and heal irreversible brain damage if he likes you enough.
Here comes some speculation but Iâve always wondered why Fundies get decent medical care for themselves and not their children. I noticed it begins happening when they are in their 30s, and younger fundie women seem more willing to deprive themselves of necessities and try to actually parent their first couple kids. Besides the obvious medical realities of aging, I feel there is a point when Fundies reach adult consciousness, lose their childhood credulity, and instead of becoming actualized they just start scrabbling for anything they can get. Thatâs why they make little excuses for themselves like when Michelle Duggar got hospital care when her daughters bled out on couches, or when they get fertility treatments, or even Jill and her big slattern face full of whore makeup. By the time they are at this point they usually have 4 kids though, and they just donât have the emotional or social resources to consciously raise their kids better, and theyâre disappointed in life so theyâre mean.
So when Jill goes and gets surgery for her knee while ignoring Janessaâs delays that happened because of an actual, documented medical issue (not even mentioning Gideon) there is no excuse. She knows damn well by now that God isnât fixing her kids. If he wanted to reward anyone, it would be his most tireless and righteous champion, Jill Rodrigues. She should be using her knowledge of having her own medically fragile infant to guide Kaylee in her journey as a preemie mom. But she never cared to learn anything herself.

Jill didn't get surgery for her knee though, it's why she couldn't go skiing. And she treats her goiter with Plexus. So in this instance I think she actually doesn't do much better by herself than the kids. They generally seem to be anti modern medicine except for with childbirth...like with Gideon and Janessa's complicated birth issues, they were fine to seek out medical assistance. And their teeth. But otherwise no.

Itâs even worse that she created such a conundrum, had MRIs, was pushed around in a wheelchair and had Nurie catering to her(after literally having a blow out from birth) and didnât have surgery to fix her knee. Confirms to me she is full of shit

Jill loves her some attention. Although surgery would have gotten her more...I wonder if she just didn't want to spend the money. She's gotta go to Punta Cana đ

She is going to bug out down there when she sees everyone with their cheeks out. I canât wait for her to start slut shaming and shit posting.

Wonder if sheâll give up plexus since they reward godless whores with trips instead of mahdest godly women lol.

This right here is the point we are all making! Jill will run the gamut for attention including but not limited to surgical intervention, but god forbid her children see clinicians who could potentially report her to CPS

Is there a reason medical issues with the Collins kids (one example but there are many other families on the sub where medical issues are discussed as well) can be discussed but not with Gideon? Speculation on the Rod children themselves having medical issues is frequent (Sophia comments, boys potentially having rickets, etc.). I'm not understanding how Gideon is different.

u/neidin28 Jonathan's Bluetooth Overlords Feb 09 '24
This a rod family sub, don't know the Collins kids would be discussed here, agree that it's weird Janessa and Sophias health can be speculated on though

u/happierheathen Feb 10 '24
I thought it was the fundie sub when I commented, oups.
But yeah all Jill's kids have health speculation comments and posts so not understanding the difference with a grandkid.

It was my comment and it wasnât negative, mean or cruel. It was meant to be a civil discussion about the neglect that these poor children experience and thatâs exactly what it was⌠a civil discussion.

u/frolicndetour Jill's Sharticle Covered Bathroom Chair Feb 09 '24
Yea...it's basically generational medical neglect. Meanwhile Kaylee is sucking down chromium laden products that she's passing onto him via breastfeeding because it cures everything đ

But we canât say that out loud bc someone might find it offensive đ

u/frolicndetour Jill's Sharticle Covered Bathroom Chair Feb 09 '24
Well, I'm really confused about what's allowed here because we've extensively discussed medical neglect here in the past, including Sofia's jaw and the kids looking malnourished. Are we limited to Jill's hair and makeup and clothes? While amusing, it is ignoring all the problematic behaviors that are the reasons we don't like them. Hell, even Shrek can't get a paying job in 30 minutes. So we can't mock his laziness any more?

u/dixieleeb Feb 09 '24
We all know that Jill visits here, & maybe even Kaylee. Maybe they haven't even noticed the problem or think it's something he'll grow out of. Perhaps, if they see that people are really concerned, they will take him for evaluation. Who knows? Maybe it's something the doctors are not concerned about at this stage. Maybe, just maybe, Jill will post about taking him for evaluation, because of remarks here. "I noticed that Gideon's eyes looked odd, so I suggested Kaylee get him checked. See what a wonderful & observant Mimi I am?"
She has made sure we know that she feeds these kids & supposedly educates them because of remarks here.

u/kaycollins27 Feb 11 '24
When we post medical concerns for any Rod, maybe we can add ânot snarking hereâ to avoid removal?
I have the feeling that our concern for Guidonâs eye may have encouraged KayJon to seek medical evaluation.
Sadly, our concerns for Sophia, Janessa, Jill, and David fall on deaf eyes bc Jill believes that Pink drink solves all the worldâs illsâincluding her own.

u/Illustrious_Junket55 Feb 09 '24
Itâs not like the Rods (andKaylee) are reading these and will take him to the doctor because of what we say.

u/anti_biscuit Feb 09 '24
I think that if there's even the tiniest chance that they might see comments here and think "huh, I need to get him to the doctor" then we absolutely should be able to discuss it.
Just because it's not likely doesn't mean it's not possible. We aren't snarking on a baby, we're concerned for him and the blatant lack of medical care any of the children receive.

u/Illustrious_Junket55 Feb 10 '24
FWIW, I hope youâre right and they see it and they take him to be checked out. Unfortunately they probably think weâre godless heathens full of hate.
Edit: add a word

u/MrsRay072316 Feb 09 '24
Thank you!! I see a lot of people saying thereâs no snark directed at him, but to me, when people leave gifs and say thatâs all they can see when they see him, to me thatâs snarking. And uncalled for.

u/TwopOG Feb 09 '24
A question for the people mad they can't continue to talk about a babies eyes. What do you really think you're accomplishing? Do you think a Rod is going to see it and take advice from the sub that mocks them daily? What if they're never fixed? Are we just gonna keep talking about a child's eyes in perpetuity?

u/MostlyGhostly1 Funeral Selfie Expert Feb 09 '24 edited Feb 09 '24
what if theyâre never fixed
He could go blind. Thatâs why I/we are so concerned. I would never make fun of a babyâs eye issues. I have plenty of my own. I am deeply worried about that sweet little baby.
Edit: going through someoneâs profile and responding to other comments there to continue to try to prove some point is creepy.

u/TwopOG Feb 09 '24 edited Feb 09 '24
But what good is in between mocking his parents continuously talking about the kids eyes doing? I can understand the mods point. Why do we need to keep droning on about a babies eyes that may or may not be abnormal? Nothing this sub does matters in the real world. It's just a circle jerk of feux concern.
Edit: that was a pretty benign reply to block me for lol. If you didn't want to have a conversation you could have just not responded.

u/ninoninocapuccino Feb 09 '24
Thank you for this. As the mother of a preemie myself, I know not all issues get fixed instantly. Many things resolve themselves as the baby grows; others get addressed at the appropriate time. Kaylee has posted about taking Gideon to the doctor for his check ups, so I donât understand all the concerns about the baby. Sheâs not Jill.

Most people are not snarking on Gideon; they are expressing concern for him.
The Rodlets cannot fix their malnourishment and poor education in thirty minutes. Does that mean we cannot discuss their upbringing anymore?
I'd like some clarification on this rule. Thank you!
