Her poor little boy, it’s so unfair that she’s sharing his private assessment. Putting it behind a paywall to increase engagement is just awful.

When that follower asked her where her highly sensitive child was. It was an opportunity for her to say well actually I forgot to mention we've made great progress by doing ABC and working with Dr.123 and incorporating their methods, it's enabled us to be able to be apart more and lowered his separation anxiety. Instead she comes out with what she did and calls her followers cnts! Maybe she thinks she's explained call this to her followers, but the narrative changes so frequently it's hard to follow?!

I think everyone here called it - it’s a little bit of who he is (sensitive and anxious by nature) and a lot of how he is parented (no consistency, endlessly pandered to).

I don’t know if I’m being mean but this part gave me a sinking feeling. She said she felt relieved that ‘.. I’m already someone with a huge understanding of anxiety and I can be a massive help for him as he gets older.’ I just read that as her deciding that he is going to be an anxious person forever now, that’s his label and that’s how he’ll be treated/moulded. As many have said before.. I see a ‘raising an anxious child’ book in her future. The poor kid.

Also YOCK to her putting the diagnosis behind a paywall. Yock Yock Yock

Did she actually call her followers cnts?? All because of that?? It’s a bit counterintuitive!

She need a bleeping kick up the hole now after getting confirmation he isn’t ASD, time for boundaries structure and routine for the poor child, I hope those around her give her a good taking to so the poor kid isn’t held back by her any longer

Not on the spectrum!
Not surprised!
She’s the problem for sure

I’m actually glad she didn’t get a diagnosis she could use to 1) explain how difficult her privileged life is and 2) earn more money off her lovely little boy

Honestly do they ever think about how his anxiety will be impacted by himself, his classmates, his future employers being able to read about every tantrum he threw as a child, his potty issues, his private medical assessments. It actually blows my mind. Now is the time to take the child off the internet (not just cover his face with a flower), give him his privacy and parent him properly, not as a piece of content.

There was someone on the radio this AM (I can’t remember her name) discussing narcissistic parents! I was driving so I didn’t give it my 100% attention, but one part I picked up on was parents thinking they’re doing the best thing by parenting the way they wanted to be or think they should have been and not how their child needs them to, and it just made me think of Caroline and this thread because someone said that on here before!

Did she say if he has sensory processing disorder? I think it’s gas she hasn’t seen that he erupts into meltdowns because he knows she’ll give in. Maybe some of the potty training craic was sensory too who knows, but they’ll never know until they implement a structure and some rules / boundaries. At 3.5 years old he is absolutely able for consequences I don’t mean old school but for example, my little fella is going through a stage of spilling his cup of juice everywhere on purpose, he’s 3, so now he knows if wants a drink it’s water and he must stay at the kitchen counter / table. It’s a simple consequence and maybe I’m wrong but they’ve gotta learn too!
