She isn’t even posting routines, it’s just a day in the life vlog. Every single time she says it fluctuates what they do say to day.. so this is just your day today then Lucy, that’s not a routine. No wonder there’s so bloody many.
also in regards to Jesse, he is past the school cut off age by DAYS. And that could be his saving grace to allow Lucy to get him some support and input to have him school ready for the following year, so that he can cope and enjoy himself rather than struggle and become incredibly self aware. My theory is that actually Jesse’s difficulties have been raised to Lucy, I think that was a big reason she didnt send him to nursery/play groups for socialisation much until recently because she knew they’d comment and she made a big point that she was fine with him being at his own rate (back last year) and only once he’s began saying words and sentences has she sent him in and he doesn’t like it, he doesn’t like following the rules and doesn’t want to go. I think she knows something isn’t right and has chosen to bury her head. For assessments to be done to offer support she has to be on board and I don’t think she is from how defensive she is.
I mentioned last year on here that there was massive massive alarm bells with lots of behaviours (can’t remember them all off the top of my head) and it seems now that because Jesse hasn’t gotten help he’s learnt to mask his behaviours and just seems naughty. She mentioned recently how Jesse now will have his hair cut and let Jordan cut it, he used to have a huge ‘tantrum’ hm ok. I remember a vlog when she had him in the trolley and walked in to a shop and as soon as they entered he put his hands over his ears and grabbed his face from the sounds of the supermarket. His speech is very rhythmic and delayed, only a few photos of him before recently have him looking at anyone or the camera, he struggled with his eye contact. I remember she used to struggle having clothes on him as he liked to be in minimal clothing all the time. In a vlog recently she mentions Jesse is crying because he didn’t press the button in the lift and he has to always be the one to do it. He’s nearly 4 and it’s upset him to the point he was screaming. That’s only the ones off the top of my head! Individually it’s all toddler behaviours but all together along with his delays it shows he clearly clearly needs more support and what ever type of difficulty he has she needs to face head on while he is still young enough that the early intervention will have such a big positive impact on his outcomes. I think the way she treats Katie and is patronising towards her makes me think that her own son having difficulties is something she doesn’t want to even consider.. it sad. Especially when being close to Katie should make Lucy all the more aware and reassured. Katie is now in pod employment, has a loving family, friends, a boyfriend, she’s a kind happy and loving person.. but Lucy doesn’t treat her as an adult or very nicely in my opinion
