I say, relations in LL outgrew our banter a long time ago. It's not even funny anymore, it's worrying.I found today’s Chateau Diaries vlog cringeworthy and confusing. Considering Stephanie has 100% control over what we see, one wonders what she is playing at. It seems she would have us believe that her mother is a cranky old scold, yet we see Isabelle and Percy crammed in the backseat of an automobile completely unsuited for a long journey with two elderly passengers, thus causing us to feel sympathy for both of them. Then she chortles over the small bed her mother and Percy will presumably share (unless Percy has a separate room). Is Stephanie subconsciously trying to recreate the mistreatment of the elderly she witnessed her parents commit? Does she resent Percy replacing her father? Is she taking revenge on Isabelle by infantalizing her? Is she trying to weaponize Phillip as her partner in crime or merely setting him up for Isabelle’s wrath? That she is unaware of how the most casual observer can discern the tension obvious from today’s vlog demonstrates her utter lack of self-awareness, unless, which I doubt, she is playing a long game yet to be revealed.
This is a job for an experienced professional. There are probably serious diagnoses involved.
