Recent vlog observations.... 1)Ever since Priscilla explained that hands-on parenting is "just not her jam," she seems even more emotionally distant from Abby. It's as though by finally openly admitting it, the pressure is off and she doesn't have to hide it anymore. Now when she shows ANY loving attention to Abby, like playing in the pool with her on yesterday's vlog (after playing with Sandy of course), I almost fall off my chair in surprise!
BTW....I thought is was extremely sad and selfish when she admitted how she felt about parenting so coldly and matter-of-factly. Her parents, in-laws, friends, and her child's teachers and therapists have probably watched it. Not her "finest moment" at all. One day she will look back on this and probably be very embarrassed and regretful. At least she should be.
2) I cannot get over the fact that Asa and Priscilla feel that it is ok for Abby to swim naked in their pool. This is not ok in any way, shape or form. She is not a toddler. Treat her with dignity!
3)While I commend Asa for all the hands-on parenting that he does for Abby, I feel he should be ashamed to admit that he is bored. I know he tried to restate what he meant it in a comment reply by saying that he was bored of his "vlog content," but the damage was already done. He should be embarrassed to even speak that thought. He has forgotten what going to a real job is like and is suffering from a major case of "Peter Pan Syndrome." Hopefully when COVID 19 has moved out and life returns to "normal" the Maas family can do some reflection, re-prioritize, and reboot their day-to-day family dynamics. I think it would be healthy for them, especially with Isaiah leaving for college.
