    I don't mean to envy her or anything but I can't help but noticing that living in a healthy society with a supportive family and overall encouraging environment can affect your academic life in a good way.

    • @HaruTheGyaru
      @HaruTheGyaru Před 5 lety +486

      Obviously. But all those things don't necessarily mean automatic academic success such as Ruby's. I mean Ruby's own sister is just normal at school. But yes, of course it is extremely helpful if you have support.

      Obviously, but a lot of rich privileged people still don't do well academically, despite all the private schools and the best education. The cast of made in chelsea went to Eton, and they still can tell the difference between 'they're and 'their'.

    I don’t think it’s the cost of everything that makes people jealous or surprised, it’s that your parents bought you such adorable personalised gifts without having to ask you. My parents will always just ask me or give me money - the fact that they pay so much attention to what you care about is something special

      Exactly... it’s really sad my mom doesn’t have anything in common with me and we do nothing together. She doesn’t have a slight idea of what I want, except “pens” bc I’m a stationary and organizing freak. I always have to give her an exact list of what I want then she literally asks me to find it online for her... so basically I’m buying my own presents with her money. It’s actually really sad that I’ve lived with her my whole life and she doesn’t even know what I like. She doesn’t even know how to buy basic teenage girl things, when I try to have fun and get a surprise she gives me stuff for five year olds. So, every holiday I am opening presents that I know exactly what they are and I bought them.

      Sophia V hello dear. you are very, very lucky that you have a mother who is financially able and cares enough to buy you gifts at all. there are many people in this world who would give anything to be in your place and even have a mum at all - let alone one who puts in effort even if it is to buy “stuff for five year olds.” she cares about you, love! please be grateful because there are not many people who are able to say that about their mum. much love.

    I honestly do not know why this is in my recommend but I’m not complaining. Although this video does kind of “show off” privilege, this young woman is so incredibly polite and appreciative. I mean, come on, I’ve never seen someone so thankful for tea and a label maker. You go girl! You’re definitely unique in comparison to other people your age but this is refreshing to see to say the least.

It’s rlly annoying ngl

      Just to correct you. Other kids on CZcams get a lot of hate for even 20€ gifts.
      To me she doesn’t seem to have gotten much hate for her WHAT I GOT FOR MY BIRTHDAY, but regular or people with different passions on CZcams get a lot of hate because some people call them out to show off their presents. Honestly the video idea is simply entertaining and interesting,plus some fans personally ask for it.
      At the end of the day they are all showing and explaining, I never saw any of them (not even the ones with biggest presents) acting like they were luckier.

    I’m not rich or anything but growing up my parents would save for a while to give me a lot on my birthday, I got around the same amount of things she got. Stop calling a young girl spoiled if you don’t know her situation, even if her parents are well off why shouldn’t they celebrate the birth of their beautiful daughter who is extremely well mannered and study’s hard! She seems very silent and kind. Everyone is so mean.

      The only reason someone would be mean here is envy. Ironically...when someone is privileged AND kind it can hurt someone who was underprivileged or who came from poverty much more than a rich person who is spoiled or awful. Because they see sort of what they dreamt about for themselves and never had the same opportunities to experience. There are kids who were in foster care, or dire poverty, or experienced abuse and a lot of those things keep people from succeeding as quickly or at all as they increase the risk for major depressive disorders and anxiety on top of the setbacks caused by being poor or being treated badly.
      Consistent and lasting adverse life experiences, especially while growing up often cause...complications. With confidence or feeling "good enough" or feeling accepted or loved. While the nastiness is of course wrong since Ruby is lovely...my guess is that her life seems idyllic to many AND she is awesome and it causes people who were not given the same stability or consistent kindness by family a stab of emotional pain. Again, what I believe. It does not excuse the behaviour at ALL but it explains it a bit more.
      And because Ruby is again...awesome...deep down they know they should not be attacking her so it can create bitterness. I would say to everyone who has a hard life or lots of losses or little support from family...really cast your attention on what you love and can improve because you deserve to be happy! My little adopted cat (she is 16) is my angel and helps me. Work or volunteer with animals, volunteer to help underprivileged kids with various support groups, and do things that are beautiful but which are not by their nature elitist...my favourites are going to the library, visiting the provincial parks in BC, going hiking, visiting museums and galleries on donation night, and learning how to draw or sketch. I also love watching old 90s films and comedies which I rent from the libraries. Take care, everyone.

    So glad you got these beautiful presents, which are a small expression of the love and care your friends and family have for you. I got really exited about the writing machine. When I was 10 I became obsessed with them and scrolled through all online second hand shops...without success. Then I got really ill and one evening one of my best friends and her parents came to visit me and her dad gave me his old oxford red writing machine which he had got second himself (he found it in a street with a note that said “help yourself”). It’s the most touching thing someone has ever done! I kept everything that was in the box: old essays and papers that belonged to the original owner and my friend’s dad. I love the authenticity and knowing that I am one of the long line of owners that have written on it!

    Happy belated birthday Ruby 😊 Love all the fab presents you received! I too love old department stores (I live near what used to be the oldest in the world, called Austin's in Derry, northern Ireland but it shut down a few years ago 😔) so I loved the Fortnum and Mason picnic hamper. Could you do a video on how you would pack for a picnic? Would love to see! Thanks and have a great summer 😊

    The amount of hate she is getting is disgusting. She works extremely hard and is an inspiration to so many people, why can’t people just respect and be happy for her? She is extremely grateful and that’s nice. Much better than the fact so many people are sad enough to actually write a hate comment on her video because of their jealousy and insecurity. Let her be.
