I think the comments that she's doing stuff on the sly with the lads are really outrageous and outlandish. She's is an absolute dose but that's pushing it a bit too fair in my opinion. Unless you know that for a fact or know her personally. They're just wild assumptions like.

“I had a little cry earlier” … what’s new?
By the way she never did say what she did with the whole upstairs space, did she?

It's the most DISGUSTING thing that any mother would say about her beautiful daughter, she's "starting to smell herself ". Jesus, how common. Vile!!

My point was if she met someone and couldn’t do mourn porn, she would have literally nothing To offer to her followers and then would have to go back to work

She’ll just move into the difficulties of a new relationship post Daniel, people won’t unfollow her and if some do she’ll just buy them. She’s extremely vain and shallow she loves the attention Instagram brings her. I honestly couldn’t see another fella being able to put up with her women like that are hard work, I imagine Daniel was very laid back and he was punching above his weight with her so I’d say he let her wear the trousers

I’m sorry but this narrative of her young daughter having to mind her Mammy rots me.
Of course there is nothing wrong with looking out for each other, but if she is reinforcing the idea that she needs to be minded, it’s an unfair burden.
Already I would imagine the eldest feels as though she has to mind the youngest. But this constant wailing into the phone and the first this Withour Daniel and the first that without Daniel is obv seeping through.
She needs to pull her big girl pants on and show some strength to those girls.
In fact I think she needs to do something on her own with them- and not always have tagalongs.
She is raising 3 young girls, and she needs to send the message that their Mammy, who is also a girl, can do anything that she wants to.

I had a friend growing up whose Mam suffered social and other anxiety. The amount of events and things she missed cos she felt she couldn’t leave her Mam- it’s an unfair burden to place on kids

This has actually always rankled with me. I have worked with children in this position of caring for a parent and the psychological impact lasts well into adulthood, not to mention the opportunities missed out on including college in some instances. What rankles me most about her is she is quite a capable lady but portrays this helpless school girl type image to generate sympathy. But the constant posting online about her 11 year old minding her mammy will seep through to the girl eventually and then Rachel becomes a burden to her young daughter

As so someone who had this role put on them as a child when my parents split up, I was stuck with this role and am now 33 with kids of my own and I'm still the one to always make sure my mother is ok and having things done for her.
It took its toll so much that I lost some of my own identity as people said I was so much like her and I felt I was my mother rather than myself.

Between that and the toxicity of my family, I am in counselling and have been for near two years.
I feel so sorry for Leah as it's very hard to get away from as you dont want to disappoint your parents.

Yep, raking the kids out of the first full week of school. For 10 days. Really poor choice in my opinion regardless of what class the kids are in.

I’ve never commented here but pop into the thread now and again, you’re all spot on. I started following her right before Daniel passed during the first lockdown so I had a lot of time to keep up with her stories. I pop in now and again and I genuinely can’t believe she is still going on the way she is. I feel awful saying it but the girl either needs counseling or give up using grief as the sole theme of her content. It’s not normal, I say this as I read the posters above commenting about the poor daughter. I have a best friend like this and we’re kid 30s, she’s still single working a high stress job and flat out taking care of her Mam. How does no one step in? Every post is about grief or Daniel, it’s no way to live for her or the girls.
I don’t want to believe she holds onto the grief as a sales angle but I do feel she found a lot of support from her following and she can’t let go of that, can’t let go of the constant daily flow of support in the form of DMs from strangers, freebies because people are so so kind to her, her friends helping her out around the house because she’s so adored and unable…
What message does this give single or god forbid, widowed mothers following her? I see it’s important for her to keep Daniels memory alive but this is the only way she seems to know how. It’s run it’s course and if she keeps it going she will continue to get more of these comments.

Taking the kids out of school for holidays is bad form, especially as you all mentioned no bother on her affording it during peak season. I’d say the friends had to go now so she followed. She really can’t do anything on her own, a good therapist could really help her.

The middle daughter is such a little dote though! Her excitement on the plane today was lovely

It’s a case of parentification with Leah & it’s a burden no child should have to carry, on top of the grief of losing her father so young.
