[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I got the book from the library and skimmed. It's a lot of regurgitated information that I've heard. I think the biggest truth she neglects to tell is that a huge part of her was thrilled that Brandon gave her this "out" from the marriage. She had no interest in the marriage anymore, but couldn't find a way out that wouldn't make her look bad. [b]She complains (a lot in my opinion) about him leaving her with the parenting that was left to do, [/b]but let's be honest that the kids were mainly raised at this point. And, we know she has continued to put distance (like oceans of distance) between her and Remy (the one child who seems to actually require something of her beyond money and a little companionship) at every opportunity. I feel like she, like many others, really enjoys the attention she gets from being wronged and patting herself on the back for being a survivor. I appreciate that she speaks as an advocate for LGBTQ and many communities that the current Christian community speaks hate against. I just wish she would take the next step of true honesty. Maybe even admit she is happy to live as a woman without a fake boyfriend, who may just want men in her life on a casual basis. I would love more honesty overall and willingness to also honor her own commitments (like actually parent her adopted child who she ended up not really liking). But I guess that kind of integrity doesn't create revenue. [/quote] Honestly, she has done nothing but complain about parenting for her entire career. This is what has always perplexed me about her--she has lots of kids and loves to talk about being a mom, but doesn't like to do any of the actual work that being a parent entails. This is not a post-divorce development.[/quote]
