A viral TikTok user has been making headlines for reported overcrowding. She has been sharing videos of living in a one-bedroom apartment with six children and her husband. In one of the videos, she is seen rearranging furniture in the small apartment to create more space in preparation for their unborn child.
The clips are reportedly posted on her TikTok account @jenkinresiliencecrew. She noted in the video that, with one bedroom for six people, having a “bedroom” area becomes more important than a dining room. In the voiceover, she said,
“As the kids grow older that means we constantly have to adapt our environment to give them more means for privacy and extra space. When outside our environment appears cluttered, disorganised that have you but quite frankly after making do nearly three years now, I have nothing but grateful spirit for the roof over our head.”
The TikToker has attracted a myriad of reactions from netizens. A person on X commented,
“Why keep having kids?”
Social media users wrote that the TikTok user had breached property rules, so their reactions are beyond judgment.
“I was in property mgmt for 17 years. This is against occupancy standards and typically shouldn’t even be allowed. It’s not just “judgement”. These rules are in place for a reason,” an X user pointed out.
“Why people get on here telling their business is beyond me. There are limits on the amount of people that can be in an apartment based on bedroom number. Hope she don’t mess around and get evicted,” another netizen reacted.
Others called the situation ‘insane,’ saying that the TikToker deserved to be judged.
“She also has a ps5 and two tvs in their room and yet the kids couldnt take the bed room for some bunk beds?” another person remarked.
“NGL, this is f*cking insane to do and even crazier to film and share with the world,” an online user commented.
“She needs to be judged because where is she finding the time to get f*cked raw with 6 children,” a social media user wrote.
The TikToker said the judgments came from a place where people had no experience
The TikToker mentioned that the only immediate judgment she and her husband faced was regarding their decision to have so many children in a space that seemed too small for them. She believed that judgment often comes from a lack of experience, noting that those who are more experienced typically do not judge others.
Reflecting on the past three years, she stated she had little reason to judge people. She admitted that there had been a time when she was naive and might have judged someone based on their appearance. However, she emphasized that she had learned a great deal since then.
Although she often looked disheveled, the TikToker explained that their children took priority. She worked hard to maintain a clean and tidy environment for her family.
Ultimately, she felt that her children's belongings could easily fit into the single bedroom of some of the homes she had seen, and she focused on teaching her kids to care for what they had, appreciate their blessings, and strive for growth through prayer and effort.

The video depicted the children assisting her in organizing the cluttered room, which contained two large mattresses on the floor and a small cot for a baby nearby. Users allegedly shared screenshots from her other videos, in which she requested her audience's help to go viral so she could earn more money and have additional children.
In one video, the TikToker reportedly mentioned that her husband had promised to give her as many babies as she wanted if she could make their account go viral and improve their financial situation.
