Obsessed with a pram? It's a pram, just like any other ffs. Using your child to get yourself ANOTHER freebie? Let's face it, she doesn't have any of the others she's been gifted. I reckon they're long gone by now.
I know they're not all the same, but my kid is a few weeks older than Ad, and he is FERAL. Highchair? Pfft, forget it. Pram? Hell no. You can just about wrestle him in if he's got a piece of toast in his hand. Imo, the consistent use of screens is keeping them placid.
I was having a very difficult day yesterday, so I let him watch the iPad at dinner. The kid who usually feeds himself, happily making a mess and exploring his food, sat there and let me spoon feed him the entire meal. A complete zombie.
So same with the pram, right? Alfie probably loves his pram so much because he knows he can sit and watch tv in there. An easy life for the kid who struggles with his mobility.
And Ada, who is supposedly this go-getter, this "old soul" who's been here before on this earth, is gonna end up exactly the same way. It's so sad. Ash is the one who takes the easy way out with her children because she doesn't know how to parent them.
I will never understand how her favourite time of day is when they're immobile in front of the tv and about to go to bed. She doesn't realise what she's putting out there - what she's saying about herself.
