I think it's mom guilt cos she works and is a single parent. I understand that. But, it's not real life. She is not teaching him what happens in real life. Once teens hit he could be too much to handle if he doesn't get what he wants.Kaitlyn is always trying to convince herself about how much fun she has with Kaedale.. how much she enjoys spending time with him. I know she loves him..but honestly it has to be exhausting keeping up with him all day. How much longer will she be able to control him? He seems to be growing big, strong and athletic.
Just like Abbie, her days seem to revolve around Kaedale and she takes him wherever he wants to go and cater's to his every whim.. seems like she is exhausted and just barely hanging on.. and appears so unhappy.
She really really seems like she needs time for herself.. her own friends, her own interests.
