Have you seen she’s just done an ad for Tesco! That’s quite big guns. I’m really surprised. She must have really good engagement?
Have you seen she’s just done an ad for Tesco! That’s quite big guns. I’m really surprised. She must have really good engagement?Agreed. I don’t mind her getting help from her parents. It’s the way they helped plus Jordan was working full time whilst she wasn't when they got the house but then she’ll talk about how hard she’s worked for it.
I’d like her a lot more if she acknowledged her privilege
I didn't say she wasn't allowed a break.I mean I wouldn’t call it an ulterior motive. Manley has M most weekends, unless it’s the holiday and they seem to split it more. Mia has M through the week, yes she goes to school but she’s still allowed a breakI’d still want that time too if I was her. And let’s be honest could you imagine the shit storm Manley would bring if Mia said M doesn’t want to stay with you this weekend. She doesn’t want to stay at Erin’s. WW3 would kick off!
I saw she did it but I didn’t actually look. I always skip her storiesHave you seen she’s just done an ad for Tesco! That’s quite big guns. I’m really surprised. She must have really good engagement?
This. 100%.You have NO IDEA what it’s like being a single parent. I’ve been both - married for most of my children’s lives and more recently single. Being a single parent is the hardest, most gruelling, exhausting thing I’ve ever done. I thought I knew what it would be like because my husband travelled a lot for work, worked long hours and wasn’t hands on with the kids. No. I had no idea what it was like.
Nothing frustrates me more than people parenting in relationships thinking that single parents have it easy because we get ‘time off’ from our kids. That ‘time off’ (and I agree 3 days a week is decent fir your friend - I get 24 hours twice a month) is NEEDED. The rest of the time we do absolutely everything alone - practically, physically, mentally, emotionally. All housework, childcare, life admin, paying bills, every decision every worry every sleepless night every bad day - everything that a couple shares, we do alone. Some days when I’m so exhausted from work I’d give my right arm to walk into the kitchen and see someone else has put a plate in the dishwasher or signed the kids’ reading logs or emptied the bin. But EVERYTHING is on me. The ‘time off’ from our kids makes up for every time you get to have a shower in peace because your partner is there. Every time your partner does a household task so you don’t have to do it. Every time your partner makes you a cup of tea. Every time the kids need something and there are two people to take it in turns getting up.
My Mum was a single parent for a long time and she always says it was easier on her own because the guy she married after that was so useless and just got in the wayAs someone who was in a settled relationship with a child and home, then a single parent for years and then back to a settled relationship again.. I personally found it easier being a single parentI think it’s harder work having to look after the husband/man than a child I loved being a single parent (not that I don’t love my partner lol or that I wanna be single again) but I loved how I could design mine and my child’s life how I wanted, just had to think of us two and only worry if we were happy and could do things that suited us.. I didn’t have to consider another adult or feel like I had to do things a certain way and by a certain time. Everyone’s experience is different though, everyone’s personality, their children and partners are diff too.. there’s good and bad sides of everything It def shouldn’t be seen as a competition or a ‘who’s life is harder?’ type thing cause everyone experiences life completely different . I personally just wanted to say I was less stressed as a single parent
I have to say that I found it easier being a single parent, my ex didn't really help or bother much and used to make things worse. I found parenting alone alot easier, so I guess it's different for everyone xYou have NO IDEA what it’s like being a single parent.

Yes. It’s normal for parents to help, most definitely and, indeed it’s what decent parents should do but I’ve never come across another 17 year old (as she was then) who managed to get her mum to buy her a new Mercedes for her first car!Agreed. I don’t mind her getting help from her parents. It’s the way they helped plus Jordan was working full time whilst she wasn't when they got the house but then she’ll talk about how hard she’s worked for it.

IIRC Chloe was still at home this point so it was supposed to be a shared car for both of them but Chloe ended up using it more. I’m not sure if I got that rightYes.

I genuinely want to know when do they even have Marley, he’s in school now so that’s 6 hours a day five days a week, she does shoots, race and goes on holiday often with Jordan when I followed her barely any photos of him. So when do her and Jordan actually be parents? I’m just assuming it’s both there parents have himWe won't be seeing any of marley in the next couple of episodes lol. Her segment will be her modelling shoot, her race and then her engagement paris trip. Marley where to be seen
I rekon this is why she doesn’t want more kids at the mo because she knows how easy her life is and when she has another one it will be harder as the baby will be with her 24/7 and will be harder to get babysitters . I actually think Chloe is really lazy but pretends she’s isn’tI genuinely want to know when do they even have Marley, he’s in school now so that’s 6 hours a day five days a week, she does shoots, race and goes on holiday often with Jordan when I followed her barely any photos of him.
