I'm new here, been lurking for a while. I used to follow PTWM. Initially I liked her and found her stories about everything going wrong with her days trying to manage the kids funny. I had a pretty
tit childhood and empathised with her. I also thought the work she was doing with DA survivors was inspiring, though I was never sure how she did it. She used to refer to getting women into refuge. I'm not in the UK so I didn't know how it worked there.
It always niggled at me though that she posted so much stuff about her kids, from their schools to village - just so much personal stuff. I used to wonder how a family with various court orders and biological parents that had been removed from their kids lives, could post so much personal stuff. Weren't they worried? Baffled me but whatever, their lives.
I noticed over time I could never really piece together her stories about her childhood and foster care, her mum. I recall reading years ago that she stayed with a friend and used to watch her mum drive away on weekends, crying. She said she practically grew up with this woman as her second mum and her friend like a sibling. She never really gives information about why her mum left, why her dad didn't look after her? I don't get it. I think she mentioned a step mum that had no interest in her at one point? She said a while back that she's never had any information about why her mum left, she has no idea. Her dad couldn't tell her, her brother?
About 6 months ago I had a friend in the UK who was trying to leave someone controlling and abusive. I had no idea how to help her and she was stuck. I reached out to PTWM through Facebook messenger to see if she could give me details of organisations or information. I figured she'd have lists and info at the ready for this kind of thing. I never got a response.
I started to notice her cut back on work and her social media become much more about her day to day life, with the occasional post about something chaotic in her childhood. I was
one day when I watched that video of Betsy on Josh's shoulders dancing, and I thought how bloody weird their relationship was. But then I saw people commenting on how wonderful their bond was?!
I don't know what really happened in her childhood, or if it was dysfunctional. But she's clearly had dysfunctional adult relationships, and is continuing that now. I don't think she knows what 'normal' is, and I don't think she knows how to identify safe guarding issues - with others or in her own home.
Watching her now it's clear she's fundraising, but it looks like it's primarily for herself. I don't understand why:
1. She quit her job
2. What she does day to day to work with warriors
3. Why she couldn't go volunteer with an actual charity, like many other people do - who still have income producing jobs
4. Why she can't provide hard evidence to those people who have donated about where their actual money has gone. If I contacted a real charity I would get information about where money goes, what percentage goes on admin, what the CEO gets paid. It's public information.
5. Why would people need to donate to her, instead of the actual charity she claims to be working with? Those charities would have their own funds that they allocate - they're not contacting PTWM and saying 'oh hey, got any cash for this lady?'.
I really really don't understand why she needed to leave her job to run her page. Loads of people volunteer for different organisations, or actually are employed through charities. If she wanted a genuine job working with DA victims she could have done that. Now instead she has a page, waffles on about abuse and bullying, and can't provide any evidence of where people's 'subscription' money actually goes.
It leads me to believe she is a compulsive liar, and reminds me very much of Australian woman Belle Gibson.
My husband also loves me, see, he bought a mat for our bath, although he wasn't concerned for just me and our baby he was concerned for all members of our family. Maybe you could have included the safety of the whole family rather than just yourself and your baby 'together'. I'm guessing it doesn't matter if the other children hurt themselves? I think you both need a reality check and start looking at how irresponsible, selfish and bad all of this makes you both look. I didn't cry or feel for you with that post I felt for the 5 other children in that household that appear to matter so much less. I love how you take your phone in the shower, is there any part of your life you aren't prepared to share? Why people can't see through this BS is beyond me. This is by no means me TROLLING you, so please don't set your 'crew' on me 
I was still working and looking after my 3 and 8 year old ! Honestly her crying and whining about people not liking her actually pathetic!
