Jen’s kids are off-limits.

We all try our best with our young ones.

Parenting can be brutal.

But her predatory, scammy, exploitive business model?

Fair game.

I actually like and appreciate the parenting post she made tonight. My kids are still elementary age but I fear them going off the rails as teenagers or young adults, and that I will feel helpless and guilty. So for some reason her post resonates with some of my deepest fears, and idk it just seems honest and relatable. And not fake/shallow, like how 99% of her content is lately.

Seriously though... Did one of her boys mess up big time? Somebody go check out the TX arrest reports and look for the name Hatmaker.

So what did Caleb do this time?

And Tyler's comment on her last post about old friends, that taking care of her people is "hot" it was giving Simple Life-era Paris Hilton. They just don't make sense to me as a couple at all.

How long can this weirdness go on? Even their attempts at compliments are so off-key. It doesn't have to be this much work.

I get that the Texans on here say that the Tyler's shirt is a common thing, but I swear she is wearing it all the time now.

Jen's book followers thought she was the real deal as she presented herself.
Now, disillusioned and disappointed, they want to see the end of the story.

“The real deal” of what though? What was there ever to worship? Even before?

I just heard Alisa Childers (who has done a podcast episode just on Jen) say, to paraphrase, “almost every deconstruction story begins with a rejection of biblical sexual ethics. Especially the public ones.”

🤯 So obvious now but I’d never noticed before she said that.

In my personal experience, if it’s not to justify homosexuality, it’s to justify cheating on your wife.

I think that in her private moments, those quiet moments when she’s not posing, primping, flattering, and scheming, Jen knows she’s a fraud and that her business model is built on the exploitation of vulnerable women.

Jen presents herself as one thing when in reality her real life is something totally different.

That’s super interesting to a lot of normies.

For sure everyone does this to one degree but not on the level of these semi famous social media life coach types.

It’s truly pathological.

It’s interesting to watch these fake narratives blow up
in their faces. It’s cathartic.

Then don’t open the thread. Simple.

I have never gotten the Kardashios. I couldn’t tell you their names or recognize their pictures. But evidently thousands of people are fascinated by them.

I don't care about the Kardashians either.

Are the people who follow them and this Jen lady the same people who watch Real Housewives and the Bachelor? It is mind boggling to me! And I consume a lot of TV - but understand the appeal of these "personalities" at all.

Jen is interesting because she is so predictably calculating. It’s amazing to see her go from sassy pastors wife bible teacher with all the kids to empty nester Eat, Pray, Love shill queen in just a few short years. She’s like a chameleon.

I think people are fascinated by her journey and how things are playing out. Particularly because she presented one thing to the public as true and it was far from it. Yet people still believe that her life is what she presents.

The cookbook will be successful, is my call. And with publishers having pre order bonuses, it really helps move books off the shelves. And JH has incredibly loyal fans who will buy her products and her recommendations.

Her FFF book was so shout-y. I can't stand people who think that their pronouncements on you are holy and pure and true. The whole "I don't know who needs to hear this, but you are special" platform rings so hollow.

Kardashions, not Kardashions. See, I don’t even know how to spell it. 😂
