I get that everyone "parents" differently and so I'm trying not to be judgy here but shes really doing my head in. Ill own up and admit I did originally follow hinch. I suffer with depression and anxiety and have for a very long time. I have "black dog" days which can last for a week or more. I saw hinch and thought maybe cleaning will help me like its helped her. For me it made it worse as there are days where I struggle to get out of bed never mind clean! I couldn't understand why it wasn't helping me and I admit I spent ÂŁÂŁÂŁs on cleaning products before I realised that 1. It was making me ill cos I felt like a failure and 2. I was spending money i didn't have.
Im married and my husband works horrible hours - we are like ships
that pass in the night. He works full time. So do I. I always have. We've got 3 kids and i was lucky that my mum and dad (who are no longer with us) were able to help us out and mind our kids so we could both work. We've both had to work full-time cos we got into debt BUT one thing we always made sure of was that we paid our bills to keep a roof over our head, food on the table and clothes on our kids backs. I was wearing clothes that were old (stuff id had for 10years or more) but our kids always had clothes that fitted them with some room to grow.
I know that people are struggling with money issues due to covid-19 so i can understand them cutting the legs off baby gros if they are too small until the next pay day.
The problem i have is that ALL of Ron's clothes look too small on him - they're short in the arms, tight round the legs, poppers and buttons gaping at the chest. I don't like to compare but Rex's clothes look comfy on him. Ronnie looks uncomfortable. Its like she wants him to stay a baby. Even his birthday clothes didn't fit him. She spends ÂŁxx on crap from e-bay, garden centre stuff, more storage stuff and ÂŁxxxxx on birthday presents for Ron but his clothes don't fit.
As you have all pointed out Asda, Tesco, Matalan, Primark, sainsburys all do nice pj's. Instead of buying crap she doesn't need why doesn't she spend money on clothes for her son. Buy the next size up so hes got room to grow instead of clothes cutting off his circulation.
Sophie and Jamie - we know you read here so here's some advice - get off your arses, get to the shops (wearing your mandatory masks) and kit your son out in clothes that fit. Leave Ronnie with your parents if you have to. You can afford to spend some of your hinch army money on your son - he's actually earned it cos he does more on your page than you!
Sorry for the long post guysss. ATV x
