I was thinking about it last time she mentioned being jealous. It's hilarious that she thinks we're jealous of her. There's nothing desirable about their lives.
They have to travel to stay relevant on YouTube. The fact that staying at home with each other isn't enough, says a lot. My poor kids have never been on holiday, but spending time at home and being together is enough for us. We don't need to go to 7 different countries in one year to feel like we've spent time together making memories.
I don't have to wake up every morning, likely paranoid my husband has been messaging other people. My husband did do this, so I left and didn't become a thorn in my own side. I made the change and I'm a lot happier for it now. I don't have to stress about whether he's being unfaithful and I don't have to constantly remember it either.
I don't have to wake up and make sure I look okay then talk into the camera, to a bunch of 12 year old girls, to feel relevant and loved.
I appreciate my kids without shoving a camera in my face and they actually know what I look like because they see my face instead of a lens. They aren't spoilt. They aren't perfect, but they have manners, don't expect everything at the drop of a hat and don't give Veruca Salt vibes. I don't have to buy them 500 gifts every birthday and christmas to show my love for them and for them to feel my love.
I don't sit on the couch all day looking at mean things people are saying about me on instagram or youtube. I spend time with my kids, clean my house, cook for my kids, go to work to make an honest living instead of living off the pockets of teenage girls. And they're clearly not making that much anymore.
I know what life I'd rather have
