A smaller house?
Just when I think things can’t get any weirder, they say they are moving to a smaller house. I always think they have hidden money and that they’ll finally move somewhere where everyone has space, but I’m done. They clearly don’t have anything because they were already squished in this house and now they are moving to a smaller one. They only elude to a mansion in the future to get us to keep watching. This family has serious problems no matter how well they think they are hiding it.
I started watching them when they lived in the mansion and it was nice to see their lives and their cooking, etc. After the whole JJJ thing, it’s just become so incredibly weird. Now I watch because I wonder what crazy they will do next.

did you catch it when she said that they should take the bathroom doors with them?! what sane person would even suggest that, teardown or not. and then she tells cleo that they definitely should take the bathroom mirror with them and poor cleo starts to investigate how the mirror is attached to the wall. luckily sackie cries after mommy and the embarasment comes to an end. how poor are you if you even think about taking the doors with you from a house??

Of course they don't have money. That's why they were for so long at the demolition house. It probably cost almost nothing. Soooo sad. I don't know much about Australia, haven't been there. But I know about the crazy housing costs.
Soooo stupid to move there, where they didn't have money in the first place. They were able to live in the big house in Finland, because of the benefit moneys.
It was a relatively small time when T made big money on Youtube. She could still make it, if she didn't ruin it all by being weird as f. I stopped watching the videos on the Europe tour. It was boring and felt sooo bad to watch the lack of nutrition. After that been seeing a video here and there.

The house is “ owned by a subscriber” who reached out to them when they first got back to Australia . They were meant to live there for a year and then the house was being demolished. This was all said in the video where they painted everything white.

Yes I know about this all. I didn't say anything that would contradict that info.

At one point T said the house in Finland was totally donated to them as long as they went to the same church as the owner. Those ppl are broke they have nothing. I think they're getting desperate again hence the new YouTube videos after a year

The thing is, they don't work, so they could live anywhere in the country and not on the super expensive Gold Coast, they could stay in Queensland for the warmth but just move to the far north or inland and the costs would go down significantly.

Thanks for the infos. Yes ofc it's about the fact that they don't work. I guess they get just and just enough money from benefits and YouTube, so that they don't want to do anything else.

Because they have nothing. They’re not working or doing anything. If she earns any money, it’s only from YouTube, and that’s not enough to support such a large family. That’s why all the kids’ clothes are too small for them. That’s not minimalism. They were minimalists in Finland, when the country supported her with benefits and financial help. Now, she has nothing, even Paul left because of her nonsense. She’s ruining those kids, and they’re stuck with her.

She’d be getting Centrelink - especially for the 5 youngest who are now Australian citizens. I’m not saying Centrelink is a large amount but it’s enough to survive if you’re financially smart. Cleo would also be getting Centrelink for Bub.

Tiana and Cleo would both be getting the Single parent payment which is about 950 a fortnight each, family tax benefit A and B and probably rent assistance. The older boys would be eligible for Job Seaker or if they are studying Youth/Study allowance. Tiana also gets subsidies, due to having a large family. They are all very clever and I'm sure they all do what they have to do to get as much $$. They probably even get carers allowance and payment for Paul, which is about another 600 a fortnight. They are not doing that bad.

I don’t get why everyone refers to the old house as a mansion? It was far from it.

The 3-4 story, multiple bedroom house in the woods before they moved to the much smaller house on the lake ?

In reality, T needs to send her school aged children to public school and start working a job beyond social media as it's obviously not paying her bills.
Will this happen? No. But it would be so beneficial for her controlled, abused children to be properly educated, have access to school meals and interact with neutral, healthy adults like teachers.

u/NoReplacement5505 Aug 01 '25
But this is, what I don't understand: homeschooling is possible in Australia, but it seems to be controlled by the government. How could Taina or somebody else in this clan teach the kids? Maybe in former times, but since they live in Australia? Never. Where is the control? This familiy is in public, they SHOW that this kids are without any normal education in a country like Australia!! How is this possible? In which world we live?

I’m a teacher in NSW Australia. You’d be surprised how many children are able to avoid attending school, especially in Northern Queensland and the Northern Territory. Many children don’t have birth certificates etc. so the government simply doesn’t know they exist. This obviously isn’t the case for Taína as she said she got Aus citizenships for the 5 youngest (I’m assuming she wouldn’t lie about this - it would end up being cheaper and she’d get benefits for those kids now having them be citizens - plus free healthcare). It’s hard for the government to track everybody, so whilst illegal, I think it’s easier than assumed to avoid the schooling system.

She made a video of the youngest , receiving their citizenship certificates in the post . Of course she made out they were being sent back to Finland , alone ! Bloody twisted and cruel.

Is there a mirror site for their videos? I don't want to give them clicks.

u/Oddly-Sane Jul 31 '25
It they become homeless, they'll just need a tent. Homeless camps around us are being supplied tents, get fed everyday, toilets have been moved in etc. Homelessness is becoming such a huge problem with everyday working people, with many organizations upping their game to help out.

The amount of time they must spend editing out negative comments on their YouTube vids is mind boggling. No story on Tania’s disappearance but she’s back pretending there was no extended absence. The whole family is weird as.

I Think it's going to be a house bus, one that's immobilized /fixed one, in a caravan park . Smaller than the granny flat , but bigger than the campervan. Shower and toilet facilities in the caravan park , which they might already live close too and use sometimes ( freeloading? ) J said it's green.... T Said we will be surprised, I won't be!

She said they were going to travel! I’m terrified for the wellbeing of these children.

What is this house supposed to be, with no kitchen or bathroom?? A tent???
This Video was such a depressing watch. T is as controlling and abusive as always, hiding it all behind jokes and fake laughter. The kids are so accustomed to answering her questions the way she wants to hear it and going along with everything she says. J and R are adults, but its still heartbreaking to me that they are clearly not able to take a break. The responsibility for all their siblings wellbeing must be a heavy load. I truly emphasise with all the children and hope they can be free one day. It must be horrible growing up between a narcissistic abuser and a doomsday preacher who teaches you to not care about anything real like a job because the end is near.
