Sadly....Val insists on lying to Jessica and makes everyone else do the same.
Like convincing Jessica she's in " classes" learning to be a nurse,or she's going to be moving into her own place or with Keely, Jessica has been told by Val...that certain rides at Disney are Jessicas, that Zoe is Jessica's dog, that they are moving to Disney , anything Val wants Jessica to like or be interested in Val manipulates Jess by lying to her convincing her that it belongs to her!
It's extremely sad....and in my eyes it's mental abuse.
Val got angry at a teacher claiming she scarred Jessica for life because she wouldn't lie to Jessica and follow Vals instructions on lying to Jessica about being a nurse ...
Val wanted this professional to be unprofessional, risk her job, be unethical and lie to Jessica in order to make her happy. Can you imagine???
Again....this is way Val has removed people from Jessica's life. Abusers isolate their prey.
The shopping video with Marlo and Jess...perfect example of how inappropriate Jessica's questions are to people ... " what's your mother's name? Wherever you live? Why did you leave home? These are NOT appropriate to ask people..as still needs and LOVES to tell strangers about dead Abby...whose been gone for years...but keep letting her obsess about it Val.
Notice Marlo just stood there red faced grinning like an idiot allowing Jessica to ask all those inappropriate questions AND filming it!!!? Marlo does as Val says.
If a strange woman approached my daughter at work and started asking her PERSONAL questions I would tell my daughter to refuse service or call a manager because no cashier needs to be accosted and drilled with personal questions by a stranger while working!!!
I would NEVER encourage my child to question people like that...it's RUDE it's invasive, it's personal!!!! Teach Jessica some manners and appropriate conversation ....but no...the world must serve Vals demands.
Val is unfit and in need of serious mental help.
