[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Her latest “I’m a single mom and Christmas is hard” is so cringey to me. At least she does acknowledge Brandon’s contributions when they were married. Is she single? Yes. Is she a mom? Yes. Does Christmas look different now that she’s not married? Also, yes. But given her resources, the age of her children, her community, her flexible job, a mom who comes over to wrap her children’s’ presents (?!?!?!)… I think there are lots of single moms with small children and limited income and no support system that may find it hard to sympathize with her.  From all appearances – she and her ex bought a car for their daughter when she turned 16 – she’s also got a fairly healthy coparenting relationship with him. It’s just gross to me that she makes herself into such a victim when there are women with abusive and toxic exes, staggering debt from custody battles with those exes, hourly wage jobs with no time off because they’ve used it all at court or staying home with sick kids, and she’s over here crying about planning her family’s ski trip.

This! As per usual, so tone deaf. And of course the narrative has changed yet again. "I have to host everything ALONE"... What happened to "TYLER AND I!!! hosted three hundred people for thanksgiving" ?? [/quote]
