She doesn’t give us much other content to discuss and you’re not supposed to ‘police’ threads, but sure, let’s move on.
Thing is she is a qualified solicitor (dunno which type). She’s clearly intelligent. She knows damn well how things can come across or be construed. If she REALLY wanted to then she could be quite successful at this whole Insta influencer thing. But whatever weird trippy mental breakdown route she is currently on certainly isn’t doing her any favours. It’s like she is frantically attempting to cling onto that “Funniest Mama” award from earlier this year as a life jacket. Almost like some form of validation.
Same here, I can sympathise with Anna as my relationship with my mum is very difficult. I too see ppl saying that their mum is their best friend and just cannot relate at all. It has to be a special occasion to ask for their help with the kids, but same as you, it makes me a better parent.Tbh i have a very difficult relationship with my parents. Its easier in many ways to think of it as a transactional relationship. O actually saod to my husband how many insults will this one hour of babysitting cost me?! Sad but true.
Its incredibly difficult seeing other people have “normal” relationships with their parents. Eg, I couldn’t possibly imagine going for a coffee with my mother/father. We live in the same village but see them for half hour a week. No calls/texts in between unless they need computer help.
It makes me really sad, but i hope makes me a better parent to my children, I know what to try and avoid.
Thats my woe is me whinge for today, sorry! But i do have a lot of time for Anna cos I see exactly the same type of narc behaviour in my mum, and it makes me feel less alone!
(She’s still a knob, especially if the bailiff thing is true!)
I’m on a reduced pay at the moment so doing the same. Could do with some new trainers myself but going to try and clean them up so I can put money aside for the kids instead. I know she shops in the ‘chazza’ but that is also constant, constantly spending on herself[
Soooo truewe are literally putting pennies away for Christmas but it’s not going very far, especially while still recovering from the shit show that was furlough. She really does need to pick a lane.
I wonder how long it will be before things go sour with the new boyfriend? There will be months of self loathing again with the occasional story about wanking
I wouldn't even tell that grubby ass story to my best mate let alone 16,000 strangers on the internet.
She’s probably depressed and traumatised by what she has been through.
The stories today have REALLY pissed me off because she'll 100% get flack for this and she'll bat it all away by saying it's nobody else's business and she can spend her money however she likes bla bla bla... but sitting on her ass claiming UC from the govt and then spending it on botox has taken my breath away. 90% of what she posts is a huge slap in the face for UC parents and working parents who struggle to get by, myself included. I'll barely cover my bills this month and she's having botox and fillers courtesy of the benefits system. Fuck me. I'm in shock.
Well she was thrilled their dad was furloughed because it meant she could get rid of the kids, what does that tell you! He already has them three days and nights a week anyway! Absolute melt she is.
