A single child with a narc parent means he’s guilted into doing things and/or too scared of the consequences if he doesn’t do as he’s told. If he has a sibling/s the pressure would be slightly diffused. His life I fear is totally f’d up and has been since he was born. Poor lad.

Held hostage watching fireworks with yer mum yelling "great effort oh good show Sadiq mate. My pal. Oh well done. Good friend of mine SB. Oh yes.." as she slurps down her squash and sigs into the jar of pickled cabbage she's been saving up.
SB sighs. Checks his watch to see if he can nip off to his freezing bedroom so he can message his mates in peace. Content raises an eyebrow in silent solidarity.
Muma seems happy
So that's a good start.

I'm guessing he doesn't really have any friends in the Thorpe Bay area any more, if he goes to school near his dad's. So it's either an evening with Honking Mumma Guest and her slops, or over to GrandChocs and Oirish Moumia Eve.
But if he had siblings they'd probably just be played off against each other, which is tit in its own way. At least he has half siblings (?) who can provide an example of relative normalcy compared to his batshit manipulative crank mother.
I watch and read a lot of finance adjacent material, and there is, statistically and anecdotally, a big old link between people wanting to look rich, whilst not being rich. There's also a lot of very scruffy looking people who aren't just rich they are practically bathing in it. Yet they look like they slept in a newspaper recycling bin overnight.
I find it fascinating. A mum at my kids' primary school exclusively turns up in gucci trainers. Varieties on a theme. She has no job, no partner, no owned property, no car etc. What is she getting from spending so much on those? Multiple pairs too. Almost identical but not quite. But it must be something in terms of self worth and status. She's had some work done too. But I think she looked better as she was.
I've found the more money I've earned, the cheaper the clothes I tend to buy on the whole. Or at least, the more unmarked branding. But usually cheap too. I want a plain black t shirt and black jeans. I happily have matalan, primark or branded but they have to be black, with a black belt with a black belt clip. Before I'd have wanted a logo if I'd paid enough to have one. Now I just want to look a certain way (not at all stylish either, I just have a look that I like having because I feel nice in it).
There's a family locally who are easily worth in the millions and the mamapapa bought a crochet circle thing so she can sew up the holes in socks. She doesn't care what anyone thinks, she's not wasting some socks.
I love the juxtaposition of it.

Just because you can do it doesn't mean you should.
Happy new year fraus.
The trainers are real ones. I'm just happy to have some trainers and some socks. Don't care where they come from (just as long as they're black
) 
It's the way she likes to make out they lead such a wholesome life. Jack hun, according to you you let your child go cold and hungry. Then in more recent years you've admitted to being permanently off your skull on drink and drugs. Wholesome, I don't think.
Claims her son adores her and would much rather be with “Mama” than his mates, but told the world she chose to let him live in a home with no food, heating, or utilities rather than ask for help
Claims said son’s father adores her and is such a supportive co-parent and NO ONE CAN COME BETWEEN THEM, but told the world he didn’t pay child support and she would rather her son go hungry than live with his dad even temporarily
Looking around my not at all big studio apartment I started to wonder how I would feel living in a massive 3/4 bed 2 bathroom house on my own.
I think all that space would amplify the feeling of loneliness. I don't mind my own company, often preferring to be alone. But ratting around in all that unnecessary space, nope, not for me. No wonder she crams it full of crap, those rooms are huge.
Jack, being the smollest of smol pixies must feel like a borrower in a huge mansion. For someone that is frightened of stalkers, trolls and people 🔺️ her, she must be scared out of her wits with ever creak of a floorboard, squeak of a door, flicker of a light, or clank of a pipe.

And worst of all, for Jack, she can’t moan about this to her scant big pinch of followers because she has to maintain the lie that she doesn’t live alone in a huge bungamansion - she is trapped in tiny crappy rental hell with SB and LD (large dog), The Cat With Expensive Kidneys and sundry rotating others (labourers, burger boys, etc.)
I've been listening to radio 4 all day cos I'm FANCY.
It was all about the Shipping Forecast.
A bit of it was about King Cnut....which made me think.... have we had "Queen Cnut" as a thread title?
Probably

Are you me? I dress exactly as I did when I was a student, black or blue jeans, long sleeved black t shirt, trainers or black ankle boots. It looks stylish, you'd have no idea if it was M&S or D&G (its M&S, I'd rather spend on the house or travel). I'm well set up financially these days, hence I'm not really interested in 'designer' labels with names/logos on them, I'm not a walking advert.I watch and read a lot of finance adjacent material, and there is, statistically and anecdotally, a big old link between people wanting to look rich, whilst not being rich.

The richest person I know (and I'm talking hundreds of millions net worth) dresses in jeans and trainers, has driven the same car for the last ten plus years, and it is a mid range Lexus. He's a wise man.
Tbh, if I see someone with a Birkin bag or Gucci trainers, I tend to assume they're a knock off
One thing I’ve noticed about guest is that no matter the platform, whenever she posts there’s no one commenting from real life? Like when she talks about the jolly japes and raucous laughter/gentle tea quaffing there’s no one commenting “was good to see you” or referencing some inside joke, just like…nothing, just parasocial fans and her own fake accounts
I think anyone who buys Gucci trainers etc is a bit dim - in the past designer clothes, shoes, bags etc were a cut above in terms of materials and craftsmanship but since most of the houses got taken over by LVMH etc they just bang out cheap tit, most of it is made in China or made there and about 2 stitches put in in in Italy to get the made in Italy on the label.
She already decided to tell 500k strangers he was in therapy a couple of years ago. I know some people here think the tales of trammies and blackout drunkenness are made up for attention (which is a reasonable assumption because she lies about bleeping everything), but regardless of how much did or didn't happen, it's clear that having such a narc nightmare for a parent has ducked the poor kid up at least to some extent.
These days I’d rather have a real fake.
If it was still December 2024, I I'd ask Santa to gift me that thread title for Christmas.
It's sad. Her house would be perfect for hosting as there's so much space. He and his mates could have their own space and she could have her best sober pals round too. They could have their own evening until midnight when she could do a cringe mum countdown.
I have often thought this. I don't have many friends, or a particularly active social life, but if I post something someone I actually know will often comment on it. Literally NEVER seen that on Jack's SM. Is it because these are her "public/famous person" accounts for the sycophants and neckbeards to follow? Unlikely. She'd be unable to keep her trap shut about a more exclusive, real life friends only account.
