The video where Alf stops reading and gives her a sad glance actually broke my heart.
whoever said she’s not self aware is spot on - she has no idea how awful she is and Joe obvious she makes it.
“I had to take Alf swimming”
Just really sad actually.
and then her stories about MH… she is just openly saying she hated it because she missed her old fun life. And now it’s ok because Ad fits in and lets her have fun. Poor poor Alf.
i know people in child protection and they are too over worked and busy to deal with this kind of neglect, but it’s awful all the same.
when she says she couldn’t face being alone with Alf as a baby, I wish she’d add “and that made me feel bad” or “I worried about our bond as I pulled away” but she never mentions Alf. Seems to genuinely believe he has love from others and material needs met (although I’d question that!) then he’s fine. It’s probably how she was raised sadly.
it just doesn’t seem right that she makes an incredible amount of money off neglecting her child online…
