The more vile abuse people pump out the more clicks and money they get.Urgh Dolly has probably done more to improve literacy than most academics could dream of! Some people just get off on pulling others down to try and raise their own profile. I think the majority would see right through this with the profile Dolly already has, like you said she just comes across as the sweetest lady!
Im 33 and do this constantly to myself and it gives me so much anxiety and insecurity.I am really annoyed that I’m feeling so insecure and comparing myself to women in their early 20s. Just wish I looked like that still
The only thing that helps me with that is reminding myself that they will be over 30 soon tooI am really annoyed that I’m feeling so insecure and comparing myself to women in their early 20s. Just wish I looked like that still
Yeah, I'm 55 soon & I'm at the stage where I don't give a toss! Everyone else is really only thinking about themselves & don't notice anyone else anyway. Just try to be happy in yourselfThe only thing that helps me with that is reminding myself that they will be over 30 soon toono one stays young forever
I was okay with myself until I hit 40 and that feeling of not being young anymore was really devastating for a while, still it a bit sometimes. I still feel like a "girl" despite my years.Im 33 and do this constantly to myself and it gives me so much anxiety and insecurity.
My mum reached that stage, it is very freeing. I cannot wait for it to happen to me!Yeah, I'm 55 soon & I'm at the stage where I don't give a toss! Everyone else is really only thinking about themselves & don't notice anyone else anyway. Just try to be happy in yourself
Absolutely. There is something very liberating and wonderful when you suddenly realise that you don’t really care what people think of you and say what you want to say (without being harmful or disrespectful) to others. Yes, when you’re in your fifties or even forties and you suddenly feel less attractive because you’re getting old andyour figure is going south! You then start to have the energy, time and money to invest in yourself with diet, exercise and products.Yeah, I'm 55 soon & I'm at the stage where I don't give a toss!

God this is infuriating! I suspect anyone attacking Dolly and her amazing Imagination library scheme has zero first hand experience of growing up in poverty - unlike Dolly who did grow up knowing very hard times, and as a result completely understands how much difference having access to books can make to a child's life.So, I know the Telegraph has certain biases and will be using this story to push an agenda but it still absolutely boils my piss to see Dolly Parton, one of the sweetest and kindest and most accepting people alive, as far as we can tell, be accused of all these things by Jennifer Stone.
This person is everything wrong with academia in the 21st century and an utter disgrace who will do more harm than good. What is wrong with these people!!!
Dolly Parton scheme giving children free books attacked as ‘white saviourism’
Imagination Library was launched by the star in the US more than three decades ago before making its way to the UK in 2008www.telegraph.co.uk
Do you think ignoring her would work? Honestly O think most children can be assholes. I’m yet to meet a perfect childOnly place I can say this as obviously wouldn't say it to anyone I know personally but my 8 year old is a spoilt, rude little bitch.
I know it's our fault for spoiling her but her attitude is disgraceful and she has started swearing which of course she always gets disciplined for.
When she does get told off she starts fake howling crying to make herself actually cry saying noone loves her. At bedtime we put her to bed and she gets out at least 10 times. And is still fucking around at 10pm. In the end I just shout get into bed, we've had enough and she eventually goes.
She has big black circles round her eyes because she clearly isn't getting enough sleep.
On the first of many times putting her into bed she starts with the depressive fake crying voice saying I'm so sorry for being a disappointment and for for being naughty. It actually pisses me off because it's every single night and just another ploy to get out of bedtime.
We make sure she's well exercised so it's not even as if she should have any extra energy.
We were offered a camel for her when we went to Morocco. Should have taken them up on the offerDo you think ignoring her would work? Honestly O think most children can be assholes. I’m yet to meet a perfect child
I get you with the spoilt child thing. I love mine dearly of course, but I am too soft on her and I do give her lots and she can be so bloody ungrateful. I know I'm overcompensating for my childhood as I always said I'd be nothing like my mother.Only place I can say this as obviously wouldn't say it to anyone I know personally but my 8 year old is a spoilt, rude little bitch.

Do you think she's spoiled or she has some issues? No expert on children at all but I was a tantrum child and I'm a tantrum adult and really wish I got some professional help. I did have something awful happen to me but was a tantrum child even before that. Some kind just have major negative affect personality for no reasonOnly place I can say this as obviously wouldn't say it to anyone I know personally but my 8 year old is a spoilt, rude little bitch.

Not this part for many of us nowadays but you can do stuff without the need for cash, like walking and working out at home. Healthier food tends to be ridiculously expensive which is something I wish more would campaign against... drives me barmy when all the special offers in supermarkets are only on the junk like chocolate biscuits.Absolutely.

People like Jennifer Stone are almost always what they claim to stand against - white, wealthy, well educated. They baffle me utterly and I can only assume they are self-hating spoilt brats having a tanturm for attention.God this is infuriating!

If the acting out is a sudden change, maybe speak to her and see if something is bothering her. Maybe she's having problems at school that are upsetting her?Only place I can say this as obviously wouldn't say it to anyone I know personally but my 8 year old is a spoilt, rude little bitch.

Aw don't feel bad! When I first babysat my neice she cried nonstop and I lasted half an hour before I called my sister. We can laugh about it now about how we were both traumatised. She still is unsure of me nowNot a rant as such but just a sad thing I can’t get past.
held my baby neice yesterday and was stroking her little cheeks when her head lolled and as a result I ended up poking her in the eye. Can’t stop thinking about it and feel so awful when I remember her sad little crygenuinely so scared to hold her now
Aw don’t worry, she won’t remember!Not a rant as such but just a sad thing I can’t get past.
