Having said the above , I can't help but be happy that I left religion behind since my early adulthood. The congenital hypocrisy that runs through the self-proclaimed religious crowd or, in this case, the self-proclaimed devout catholic is mind boggling . The fact that this so-called Christian hasn't made any attempt to even have a minimally cordial relationship with her Half brother tells you everything you need about these people and their inability to adhere to the basic teachings of their professed faith. I'm only slightly older than her and,unlike her, I'm aware of an unassailable truth about this life : It all comes down to circumstances. Specifically, she could've been the one borne out of an extra marital fling and he born into the marriage . He didn't ask to come into this world under those circumstances. If my father had fathered a child outside of his marriage , I wouldn't hesitate to at least initiate some sort of contact with my sibling,then again I'm not a devout catholic . *eye roll*

I don’t think there is anything extraordinary about her, but I don’t really fault her for relationship with her half sibling. She wasn’t aware he existed until much later in life and that must have been traumatic for her (which is why referring to her adolescence as idyllic and some kind of model of success is ridiculous in the first place.) a good friend of mine was in a similar situation at a similar age, and it ruined their relationship with their father. Despite being a good person, they don’t have much to do with the father or the sibling, who is still young. The father is more to blame for creating the situation than their children are for how they handle it.

DP. I don’t really have a view either way as I think half siblings relationships are different. However, she wasn’t unaware of his existence. She was unaware that he was her half brother. But the whole family knew him as their housekeepers son and he was initially passed off as her husband’s child and he visited their home frequently. Which I guess kind of makes it worse?

Ah, I didn’t remember that. I don’t know, still a traumatic thing for her. I still judge Arnold for creating those circumstances more than I do his family for how they handled that trauma. But also hear what you’re saying that at some point his grown children, supposedly raised in a home of strong values, should do the right thing. Arnold was the most selfish in not just fathering another child while married, but also creating a situation where the child’s entire upbringing was kept a shameful secret from his family.

Is it normal for an article in NYT to refer to the subject of the article by their last name? It says Ms. Schwarzenegger Pratt throughout. I'd never noticed this before if its normal in newspapers but it seems odd here.

NP. That’s the standard in all journalism.

Author didn't do it in a professional way. The piece was probably written by someone struggling to get a job.

There comes a time when there has to be more coherence to an argument than just throwing the word jealous at any and every topic .

Why? It's clear many of the comments are written by people who are jealous of her wealth and connections.

I don’t think anyone cares. Many have wealth, certainly on DCUM. None of it seems noteworthy. My takeaway from the article was that it was a free advertisement for Mary’s Gone Crackers. I checked them out for the first time at Whole Foods today.

Sorry.... my kids' dad cheated on me, moved away, and has a whole new family. When my kids grow up, they don't have a responsibility to have a relationship with half "siblings" because they were "raised in a home of strong values." That is not "the right thing" to do.

That cracker line was the most annoying thing about the whole article. It showed she is as clueless as he is. He thinks ragging on his wife on Instagram makes him funny and relatable. No. She thinks saying she carries her kid on her hip (wow!) and wears a banana clip in her hair makes her relatable. No.

I assume that was the journalists point in choosing to feature that nugget- the dichotomy and paradox of how out of touch, yet uninteresting, she is.

And to add, it was savage.

That’s awful. I’m sorry. They don’t have an obligation, but on the other hand, it’s not the kids fault that their parents acted selfishly. It’s very much a scarlet letter situation, isn’t it?

the article was marketing for her crackers.

The rest is utter BS. She is an idiot. How her mother raised such a low self esteem woman I will never understand.

Family values she doesn't know what that means. She's a stupid entitled twat.

Idk about that. People express subjective opinions and the response is an unhinged screed about how they’re jealous. Like things like whether her and Chris are particularly attractive or interesting are completely subjective.
