Recently, OutDaughtered parents, Adam and Danielle Busby, reflected on attending an eye-opening event. While their life has become increasingly more stressful, they let their “guard down” and find ways to look at life differently.
Close To Breaking
Undeniably, the OutDaughtered crew is getting more hectic to control. During the show’s latest season, Adam and Danielle Busby have reached a breaking point of knowing they can’t continue doing the same things that have always “worked” in the past.
Over time, the burdens are increasingly getting heavier for both parents to shoulder. Together they have started focusing on their marriage. Likewise, Danielle is choosing to start therapy for herself.
Additionally, they are looking to hire two nannies to assist with the chaotic day-to-day living of eight people and their abundant needs.
On top of their already busy schedule, Danielle feels called to start a support group for parents of multiples. While Adam thinks they need less on their plate, Danielle pushes for the desired connection with other moms.
Adam & Danielle Busby Discuss Attending Eye-Opening Event
In the June 18 episode of OutDaughtered, Adam and Danielle Busby take steps to meet up with other parents of multiple children.
With Danielle’s passion for coordinating and desire to be understood, she arranges a meet-up with two other families. They take their six girls, Blayke, and quintuplets, Riley, Hazel, Ava, Olivia, and Parker to a huge extravaganza.
While it was “another thing” to do, Adam and Danielle admit it was eye-opening to see other parents working through similar struggles.
Adam says, “It was so freeing.” He felt understood by other people who knew what they were facing in their daily lives. He says, “You could totally let your guard down around these people because they completely understand.”
Although Adam Busby wasn’t very happy that Danielle Busby was adding another thing to her overwhelming schedule, he confesses the huge event was therapeutic. Reflecting on the event, he says, “I had a blast meeting these other parents with multiples.
I mean, you know, I was more concerned that like, OK, this is just like one more thing added to our list of things that got to get done this week.” During a confessional interview, he adds, “But I saw it as a net positive. And the kids had an absolute blast for sure.”
