I lived in STL and followed Meghan early on social media. Looking back, I can see now that some of her posts - even going back 15 years - were really manic. It wouldn't surprise me if she had mental illness. Add in 3 kids in 2 years, a cheating spouse and other stressors... and I imagine she just broke. To me, her oversharing on social media seems like a cry for help.

I don't know that Edmonds is the monster people are making him out to be. I guess it's good he and his wife are stepping up with the kids. But to move his kids to TN at a time when they probably really need their mother and some assurance she's going to be okay... I dunno. Seems like it would've been better for them to relocate back to STL and help Meghan get the help she needs.

Her family was a nice, normal St. Louis family back in the day. I wonder if they are trying to stay involved in the kids' lives. I imagine it's really tough when your daughter's ex has unlimited funds and is revered in STL.

Poor kids. I hope Jim is being a good father and that their mom gets well.

Please explain to me how he's being a "good father" by suddenly removing the children from their entire world in STL. He has unlimited funds, he can afford to set up a home in STL quickly.

Please explain how she was being a good mother by moving her three young children into the home of a man she had been dating for six weeks, and wanting to move to California to be with this man (Jim stopped the move) and marrying and divorcing this man within 2 months. Please explain how these actions are those of a good mother?

You’re never going to get an answer to this. The Meg defenders keep skipping over every true point about her behavior unless they have a way to scream it’s Jim’s fault. They’re unwilling to see right now Meghan is 51% terrible and Jim is 49%.

Just as you are skipping over every "true point" about Jim's behavior in other posts.

But I'll bite.

The first bit about her moving the kids into his home while they were dating is false. Never happened. He lived in CA and she lived in MO.
She has given interviews about the marriage and all of her thoughts *and regrets and lessons learned* about it and she talks about her kids and how she planned to move forward - please google.

Now please tell me how Jim's "stellar" marriage track record and other actions, to include cheating with his kids' nanny while he was married to Meghan, makes him a good father:
- He divorced his first wife in 2008 after cheating on her and then married that same year to his second wife (I'm guessing she was the mistress)
- Then he divorced his second wife in 2014 and married his third wife (Meghan) that same year. Cheating here too? Probably. Real great husband and father. Meghan, who would likely say this now too, made a huge mistake, but was very likely snagged hook/line/sinker by that narcissist.
- And then he got engaged to a fourth woman (a woman with whom he had a threesome while he was married to his third wife... so you would be an idiot to not think cheating with her during the marriage was involved here too) only two months after his divorce from his third wife was finalized (so, continuing his track record). The slight difference this time was that he married the next wife a whole year after divorce from the previous one, so in his world that's an eternity apparently.
- Then he sold his property in STL and moved to an entirely different state (TN) than where his kids are growing up
- And finally, ended with permanently removing his kids from their hometown to TN, relocating them away from everything they've ever known, to include their own mother.

I'd like to hear how that is the mark of a good father.

Smh. You just proved the point about always screaming it’s Jim’s fault. It’s like a compulsion for you.

I asked how any of that shows he's a good father. Please respond without your Gen Z lingo ("POV", "smh", etc and emojis, and multiple exclamation points). You must be at a maximum late 20s in age, and it shows.

Grandma you’re responding to multiple people. If you don’t understand how to use the internet then get off the thread.

He blocked Meghan’s move, then a few years later, he and Kortnie moved to Tennessee, and shortly after that move, he got sole custody and permission to relocate the kids to Tennessee, away from their mother and their extended family, which appears to play a significant role in their lives. Something is off here. Meghan was always punching out of her weight class in her battles with Jim.

Yes, Meghan’s behavior.

Her behavior is a human response to what sure looks like a scheme to take her children away, not just a little away. He ended up with sole custody and a move to Tennessee when he previously argued that the kids shouldn't be removed from their family, friends and home in STL.

She has been wilding out for YEARS. Odd you just want to focus on her custody loss. Which was related to her giving her child drugs. Imagine defending that.

"Wilding out"? How old are you?

Can you please outline how medical decision-making authority was laid out in their custody order? Can you speak to the doctors the boys have had over the years, their medical histories, and their diagnoses? Also can you speak to Jim's involvement in those appointments, and also the IEP meetings at school?

Also, do you have experience with joint medical decision-making and how abusers weaponize that and withhold it as a means of ongoing coercive control and abuse?

If so, please share.

Did Jim publish an autobiography or how do people know all the ins and outs of his life and what he does and why? Where are they getting this info from? And I looked for the video that has been mentioned about him being an aggressive menace during a custody handover and can’t find it anywhere.

I don’t know what he is like as a person and I don’t know what all the issues are that Meghan is dealing with. Both have been married 3 times and both seem to have made poor decisions. Women are just as capable as men in making good and bad decisions about their own lives and being active participants in their own life and each are responsible for their own decisions. Neither men blaming women for all their woes or women blaming men for all their woes means anything to me. Adults get to make their own choices in life.

The focus should be on what is best for the kids and clearly at this time both Jim and Meghan have agreed that it would be best for the kids to be with Jim. If that wasn’t the case, they had an upcoming court date to argue otherwise. Both have legal counsel advising them. And they have decided this is what is best for the kids. I hope Meghan gets whatever help she needs and is able to soon be back in the kids lives in a more active way.

Apparently you can’t use the internet since you keep asking a question irrelevant to me.

Because the video has not been posted publicly.

He's been married 4 times, just a minor correction there.

Unfortunately, people without tangible experience in family court and in the type of "high conflict" situation going on here, say what you said in your last paragraph. It is futile to try and get people to understand what really goes on.

Facts. I’m going to add on something I said earlier - I do wish the courts had required Jim to remain in STL and have full custody. Even if Meghan wasn’t able to see the kids at this time, they’ve had too much turmoil this year. They should have been allowed to remain in their city with their school, friends, and extended family. And hopefully Meghan could quickly have some supervised visits with her family supervising to help keep things normal for the kids.

If it’s not been seen by people on this thread or isn’t public, why does it keep getting used as some fact that Jim is a horrible monster?

And yes, he’s on his 4th marriage. Apparently we should say Meghan and Jim have both been married and divorced 3x?

But back to your rant about medical decision making. You know her insane behavior started before this Fall when she was caught trying to give her kids illegal drugs. Right?

Embarrassing.

So tell us how old you are since you thought it was a GenZ term?

I don’t know what he is like as a person and I don’t know what all the issues are that Meghan is dealing with. Both have been married 3 times and both seem to have made poor decisions. Women are just as capable as men in making good and bad decisions about their own lives and being active participants in their own life and each are responsible for their own decisions. Neither men blaming women for all their woes or women blaming men for all their woes means anything to me. Adults get to make their own choices in life.

The focus should be on what is best for the kids and clearly at this time both Jim and Meghan have agreed that it would be best for the kids to be with Jim. If that wasn’t the case, they had an upcoming court date to argue otherwise. Both have legal counsel advising them. And they have decided this is what is best for the kids. I hope Meghan gets whatever help she needs and is able to soon be back in the kids lives in a more active way.

Because the video has not been posted publicly.

He's been married 4 times, just a minor correction there.

Unfortunately, people without tangible experience in family court and in the type of "high conflict" situation going on here, say what you said in your last paragraph. It is futile to try and get people to understand what really goes on.

Unfortunate you seem to have gotten sucked into a social media influencer world. Those people feed you a lot of misinformation because their views and income depend on being controversial or dramatic or stirring up strong feelings. You have blinders on or are gullible. The education, health, and legal system are not all colluding together and aligned against Meghan.

If it’s not been seen by people on this thread or isn’t public, why does it keep getting used as some fact that Jim is a horrible monster?

And yes, he’s on his 4th marriage. Apparently we should say Meghan and Jim have both been married and divorced 3x?

Because it was seen and reported by someone who Meghan (or maybe someone in her camp) either directly or indirectly reached out to in the advocacy community at some point. And furthermore, you can't read between the lines of the other sh**ty known facts about him? You think there is not something deeply wrong with him? He's just a regular, stand-up guy who has made some "poor" decisions? Ok.

Any ladies on this thread say they would love to hitch their wagon to him if he were single?

Given how many women in here are focused on marrying a guy with money, I bet you would get a lot of takers. Just as many as there would be men who want to hitch their wagon to Meghan with all that is deeply wrong with her as well.

I don’t think either is better or worse than the other. They are both very flawed people but Jim is more stable now in terms of providing a safe home for the kids.
