When I first came across Ash she spent time with the kids, would proudly cuddle them and say how proud she is of them etc she even walked the dog at times, got a bit of exercise walking...
Then she went out more and more leaving the kids, cruises, events, 'weekend' trips that turn into week long trips to Manchester. Drinking more and more, swearing, doxxing people, even making comments about people daring to comment of lives in different languages.
The family got ripped apart when Chels left, the stability the kids knew completely went, not just because of Chels, but because Ash wasn't home and publicly didn't want to be around her kids. She still constantly slags of their dad, years after they split etc forgetting that like it or not he is their dad and part of their dna make up. Ava seems to have back away almost completely, although she posts her own stuff, she doesn't even seem to eat dinner with them.
Oscar has shown he's emotional, going through a big life change with hormones and school etc and Ash has pushed him away. She spends more time with James then she does Oscar and as a single mother that is not a healthy balance or stability for O.
She slags off the neighbours, she shows her street and shows her painting the door an unusual colour, publicly slates the schools but she's ignoring the kids trying to communicate and takes the kids out of school because she's got a free caravan stay or has decided that taking them abroad for a few days makes up for all the lost time.
As for Dex she obviously read here to suddenly be showing she 'walks' him. Still not actively showing affection to him, playing or giving him something to stimulate his mind at home. Not even chews and she can't blame allergies as there are so many varieties and natural versions.
Do I wish her ill health no, do I wish her the biggest reality check and for her to realise her privilege definitely.
The kids seems lovely, but that seems to be from Jean's influence.
