Now it's different if you call things useless, like what the vacuum cleaner would be if the bag got punctured. (That's among the things my dad would sometimes scold our dog for doing back in the mid 2000's, biting on the vacuum cleaner bag while he was using it.) And if you talk about being useless in a particular situation because you just stood by and did nothing to help when it was clearly needed, also different. That would describe Kevin Franke in my opinion, Ruby's ex-husband of the former 8 Passengers YouTube channel. According to the oldest of their children, there were acts of abuse coming from Ruby while the channel was still up and she and Kevin were still together. Maybe it wasn't until they separated and he moved out that the duct tape stuff between Ruby and Jodi Hildebrandt started, but according to the oldest, who left the channel early, there were things going on that she was around for, so clearly Kevin was around for those things, too. His lawyer tries to say he was "manipulated" and that "he had no reason to believe that his kids were being abused," but I think that's poppycock. There was an incident he teamed her on, and he is apparently still defending her, which tells me he just let the other ominous things happen because he didn't think his kids deserved any better. After he moved out he didn't even bother to check on his kids in any way or ask the police to check. That's just as bad, maybe worse.
What I'm getting at is that he was useless in this situation because he did not protect his abused kids.
But there was no justification for Gaby to call Sherry a useless person, especially when she cooked the first meal for everyone and then tried to make everyone happy by trying to surprise them. She deserved better, and at least she wasn't a bully like Sade.
