Hey! I was wondering how/where you’ve been as hadn’t ‘seen’ you on here for a while! Hope all okay with you. I think you’ve pretty much got it (very) straight. Poor, poor Alfie. I know first hand how challenging change can be to children, particularly those who are ND. I cannot imagine for a moment not scooping my child up and bringing them on the whole journey with such a big move. Children don’t care about the big reveal of the new room, or mummy (and daddy where there is one) still unpacking boxes (there’s fun and adventure to be had in that) what they care about is consistency in caregiving, from their safe people, and feeling secure and understood while big transitions are afoot. I doubt Alfie will even get the chance to explore his new home and potter about like most children do. It will be straight to his room (for some IG content for the big reveal) then straight to the play prison in whatever form that takes. Avoiding mummy's quarters at all costs. Followers will of course be treated to the final breastfeed for Ada in her new room. Naturally there will have also been a huge, cue sad music, montage of THE REUNION with her babies/littles (or whatever word she has seen another influencer use and awkwardly and unnaturally jumped on) . A videographer there to capture the completely candid, not at all contrived and curated for the gram, moment. I hope to god in this magical universe that is London, where Princess Ashley finds herself again (again) she develops a less self absorbed, self obsessed, narcissistic personality and finds a way to put her poor childrens’ needs ahead of hers. I mean actually do it rather than just cosplaying at being a mum. Sadly, I think we all know that isn’t possible infact it’s going to get a lot worse as Mummy has lots of well deserved catching up to as gal about town.QUOTE="Autisteuse, post: 19455728, member: 298390"]
Hello, everyone *waves*
So let me get this straight (or try to): Ashley has decided to move to London in a futile attempt to resolve her early midlife crisis, which has really come on because she has two children she finds dull, tedious and irritating, a fauxmance with a man who looks like something out of a hostage scenario, and who believes that returning to the scene of her youth will miraculously unwind the clock (partially the biological one)?
And in the course of this move, she’s going to uproot her oldest child, whom I firmly believe is autistic (based on my own experience of it) - a child that hates changing routines, who is infantalised by both parents, who is going to lose his home, second home (Lovely Day), his friends and familiar surroundings… but has not only been unprepared for the move, but will be away for six days? And then come home to a brand new, unfamiliar house? Expect some quite significant regression, Ashley.
And further to that Ada, who is still breastfeeding, will be uprooted from the only home she’s ever known, her second home (Lovely Day), her third home when convenient (Ashley) and will be forcibly weaned while in a strange place? That’ll be… totally quiet and not distressing at all for either her or her temporary carers.
And after the children have been summoned to the new house, they’re probably going to be shoved into a brand new nursery the very next morning, going from an unfamiliar home to an unfamiliar learning/play environment, while Ashley prattles on about pink and cocktails and shopping and Women’s Rights? I’m sure they’ll adjust straight away.
This is going to be an absolute shitshow. Couldn’t happen to a nicer person. @InTheDollsHouse and @Cariad, this is a little bit of karma, just for you.
I wonder how many Aff links she will get out of this move. If we are really lucky she might Aff link the Estate Agent, I’m sure we are all in the market for a 1mill+ property.

Alfie will never be allowed to potter about. Probably got a locksmith there now preparing one room as a bland kids prison. Locks, baby gates, anything to keep them in one room only.
