[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Major points for Jen, though, allowing her daughter to actually become an adult and allowing her to use her own voice regarding her coming out.

Rachel Hollis’ 14 year old son never got that option.[/quote]

Wait, wut? Has he even come out yet? I would assume both Rachel and Dave would be supportive. I don't get the sense either of them are homophobic. Heck Dave's girlfriend's ex husband admits he is bizexual. [/quote]

Rachel said Jackson gave her permission to tell it on her latest podcast.  I personally didn't listen to it, but saw some comments that she'd noted there was some family opposition.  Dave has not commented.  Floods of comments in her IG post were hateful about it.
Which one of Heidi's ex-husbands is bi?[/quote]

I think this is more opportunistic virtue signaling. It’s like on RHOC how Heather came back imo just to show what an amazing accepting mom she is of her gay kids. One is just starting high school, for Pete’s sake.

It’s parental exploitation imo to put your kids private lives on SM. Its like when I see friends’ naked baby pictures on Facebook. We all have cute bathtub pix but I worry about my google photos being hacked, much less posting it online! No better than how Jenn treats Remy.  I have teenagers. If I put anything more personal than generic  “X got her drivers license today!” etc on SM that would be wrong. One time my kid saw an old post I’d done about the frustrations of potty training him when he was 2 and he was mortified! Taught me a lesson. I’d never post “Susie lost her virginity last night! We’re so proud!” - even if I were proud (and I’ve met parents who would be.)

I feel like these kids think it’s normal because their parents have exploited them their whole lives. I constantly have to tell my kids to scale back online and not attach their name to anything even slightly controversial because it can and will come back to haunt them. Or even text it or Snapchat it. Look at all the people ruined over something stupid they tweeted when they were young.

I think one of our hardest jobs parenting teens is teaching them how to use the internet responsibly. We need to be an example. Posting their most personal details online is failing in that area. 🤷🏽‍♀️ My .02.[/quote]
