If she spent as much time with her kids (other than Betsy) as she does on her make up, they’d probably be much better people.

I also don’t think it’s a completely bad thing that Seb is working but if he’s waking up tired and then having to go to work then that’s OTT. What’s the point? He has a lifetime of working hours ahead of him, he will never get these long summer breaks back.
Also, if she gets Betsy a car that really sets a precedence and kids do remember - they will all expect cars on their 17th birthdays! Surely, if Betsy has savings, this is exactly the kind of thing they should be used for. I always tell my children I’ll happily buy them driving lessons when they turn 17 but a car is something they will have to help towards.
