Patreidy318 believes Zach and Tori should show more gratitude, stating that their fans have a great life because of them. K_lo72 finds Zach and Tori to be slightly hypocritical for sharing their lives on their podcast and social media while complaining. They question if this is similar to being on reality TV. Grace4ever1980 and other fans suggest that Zach and Tori should stop complaining and move on, just like their father has.
Despite the criticism, some fans defended Zach and Tori in the comments. Anetters24 acknowledges the negative feelings towards Matt and his partner Caryn Chandler. Caseycampo hopes the Raising Heights podcast allows the couple to continue sharing their individual and joint experiences. Nancynewton.art expresses sadness about Zach and Tori leaving Little People, Big World, understanding that it may be for the best in terms of their well-being.
It is in their best interest for Zach and Tori to depart from the show. If remaining on Little People, Big World is detrimental to their well-being, then it is indeed for the best that they are leaving. Reality television personalities often showcase intimate aspects of their lives that would otherwise remain private. The recent response from fans regarding their podcast conversation raises a valid point - the podcast can be seen as another form of reality show. However, hosting a podcast grants them more autonomy over the topics they choose to discuss publicly, eliminating the need to navigate unexpected situations involving other family members.
Little People, Big World airs Tuesdays at 9 p.m. EST on TLC.

Editor's P/S:
The departure of Zach and Tori Roloff from "Little People, Big World" has sparked mixed reactions among fans. While some express disappointment, others support their decision to prioritize their well-being. The couple's explanation that reality TV can tear families apart resonates with the challenges they faced as "middle men" between their parents. However, fans' criticism stems from the perception that Zach and Tori continue to discuss family matters on their podcast, raising questions about their genuine desire for privacy.
Ultimately, the decision of whether to leave the show is a personal one for Zach and Tori. If the show has become detrimental to their mental health, then their departure is justified. However, the ongoing public discussion of family dynamics on their podcast suggests that they may not be fully embracing the privacy they claim to seek.
