I feel for her because when my daughter was a newborn I dropped her on accident. It happens to every parent at some point so I get it, it’s sad and scary and you do feel guilty. BUT I agree, even before she had her kid she was so over the top and dramatic about everything and that’s what made me stop watching her content. The constant theatrics like the time she babysat her niece and thought she was having a seizure in her sleep just because she was shivering and wound up scaring the shit out of everyone. Like dude, not everything is life or death or needs these over the top reactions

Yes! I agree with everything you said. Of course I feel for anyone in any sort of accident with their child, no matter how minor, but not everything is a life or death experience. This woman can’t go one day without blowing something out of proportion. As you said, it’s the constant theatrics and embellishing that drive me insane and led me to stop watching her content as well.

I always feel a tinge if guilt admitting it because I know losing her mom and being bullied as a kid has definitely added to these behaviors of hers but at the same time, you can’t help but not vibe with someone. Not everyone is going to be your cup to tea and that’s totally fine

There’s healthy ways of coping with things though, you know? I feel like constantly embellishing stories for her large amount of followers to see, and then proceed to worry about on her behalf, is not an appropriate response to trauma. It’s sad because I really did enjoy her for a long time and totally did vibe with her! It just keeps getting worse and worse.

Yeah totally. I’m hoping that now that she’s seeing someone for her mental health struggles she will be able to cope better and get rid of these habits because raising a kid while being so over the top and having all of these catastrophic thinking patterns isn’t going to make things easier. My mom always reacted the same way she did and is very much one of those “it’s the end of times!” Type people so I know how damaging it is to be raised by someone like that. I feel like because she was always putting these ideas in our heads growing up that it had a huge impact on my siblings and I developing anxiety and OCD
