There's a reason you havn't met many "travelling long distance mummas" Crystal... Try and work out why babe...

I can’t imagine either father is going to want to her to have more contact than she currently does, so I’m not sure how this situation could be resolved.

Maybe she should have chosen to live in a midway town like Glen Innes?

(I know Glen Innes wouldn’t suit the cosmopolitan curtain designer image Crystal wants to cultivate, but it would have been much better for her sons.)

i think she likes the arrangement as it is. She can blame distance on her lack of involvement when really it’s her selfishness that keeps her away. She only has to “play” mum for a week or two, doesn’t have to deal with the hard stuff that comes with being an actual parent and can also play the poor me card all for social media likes.

I completely agree.

A child focussed solution wouldn’t work for Crystal.

Yup! If she lived closer she’d have less of an excuse as to why she never attended any of her kid’s extracurricular activities like the BJJ matches that are so important to the youngest, or be available for emergencies or sicknesses. Most mothers would live as close to their children as possible, living half way between the two. But leave it to our girl to turn her selfishness into a way to try to get sympathy on socials as the poor beleaguered long-distance mum who so loves her children that she’ll drive 6 hours to see them every two weeks. Her dedication and sacrifice are so impressive, amiright?

She always talks like she had her first baby in her teens. ‘SO young’
Mid 20s is not THAT young. Not young enough to reference all the time, anyway.

She said multiple times she loves being a young mumma. Isn’t she in her mid 30s??
Crystal, honey, having the emotional maturity of a 16 yr old despite being a grown ass adult does not make you a young mum. You’re legit almost out of your child-bearing years. duck. 🙄

note: just looked it up, she’s 37! Ahahahaha.

Oh my gosh, I thought I must’ve gotten it wrong and she must be like 30 hence being such a “young mum”. I had my son at 25, almost 26, but have never considered myself to be a young mum. I’m also a single mum (80% care, not full care) and have been since he was very young. Difference is I’m actually a parent, I’m present, I’m the primary caregiver, and I would never dream of living away from him. I miss him when he goes to his dads for 1 night! She drives me insane. Of course you haven’t met “traveling mums”. Because everyone else puts their children first and stays close by, so they wouldn’t be in this position even if they had 2 kids to different dads.

I was 25, too. It’s was young compared to most of my friends but I never thought I was soooooo young. I was a fully grown adult.

Good on ya for being a ‘young mum’ crystal. Never mind the fact that your family is broken, you have 2 failed marriages and never see your kids who don’t even live together. But hey, you were a yOuNg MuM so that’s all that matters.
I guess us ‘old’, partnered, stable, home owning, working, involved mums who had babies in our 30’s are just SO beneath you and completely jealous of you 🙃

Dear Crystal. You are not a young mum. You were 24 when you had your first. Don't bleeping use it as an excuse to be useless. I had 4 by 26. 3 by 23. All to same dad, all planned. Go duck yourself.

I’ll just leave this little nugget of a comment here.
Anyone who has done a quick Google for Crystal Bailey would only see all her self promotion projects. Tattle is way down on the first page and it’s almost as though the internet has been scrubbed of all her business scams and failures.

That person needs to take the matter up with Fair Trading.

If she was a legit business, she would have a google business page and that person (and others) could actually leave reviews….

If I was a new follower of hers & watching her Insta lives I'd be thinking she's manic or unorganized or takes on too much or all of the above. (Able to follow again under a different account 😜).
