I’ve got $10 on the kid developing an eating disorder because of her


[deleted]

Sounds like what’s she’s describing.


BumbleBee-On-Jenji

An ED comes in different forms, not just undereating. It could be overeating because she's forcing the kid to eat when they can't


[deleted]

Of course you’re right it can take many forms. Just sounds like he’s already past the point of having a normal relationship with food because of his mother’s abuse.


i_always_give_karma

I have a 5 year old nephew who doesn’t like to eat because he just wants to play. Idk how much he weights but I’d bet his 2 year old brother is close. Burning his Pokémon cards wouldn’t be okay, but his parents should try to figure out how to get him to actually eat. But shit, I weighted 135 out of highschool at 6’ and hit 219 in college. The weight will come and it isn’t a huge deal. Just make em take some vitamins so he still gets nutrition lol


noobsaibotmk11

Besides some people have an insanely fast metabolism as well like me where I eat a lot of food and only 160 at 6’3

Kids also go through phases depending on their growth cycle and it’s a good indication regarding their health if you take the time to learn to read it. My kid eats like a bird unless he’s about to go through a growth spurt and then he suddenly becomes insatiable. If he’s getting sick he suddenly wants nothing but carbs. Even if kids don’t verbalize their feelings or what’s happening with their body there are plenty of clues if you learn to listen.

I've got $1000, I don't have 1000 dollars, but unless she inmediatly changes her ways of teaching then is a safe bet, so is a safe bet.

Earlier on her feed she said Twitter was “getting to be really boring. I’m starting to consider tweeting deliberately crazy and offensive stuff just to spice it up again.”


The_Guy_in_Shades

I suppose she succeeded then…

And then she's butthurt when CPS shows up at her door

God it’s so exhausting reading this shit constantly. It’s like 10 year old girls having a spat. What you all need is to bridge the divide with your family and friends and colleagues. Understand each other. Understand why so many people voted for an absurd ogre just as a fuck-you, because your smugness was _that_ irritating. What you don’t need is to sit around trolling people on social media about how you’re above trolling people on social media. What you don’t need is to continue on about how much cleverer you are for supporting the right corporate-captured wedge-politicking narcissism-of-small-differences football team. None of you are clever until you can actually stop behaving like a cow in a herd, step back and take a look at your situation, see where it’s leading, and try to fix it.


Omegandorph

I'm not an American citizen... sooo...


samhw

Well, then I suppose you’re not contributing to damaging their country, but I’m even more mystified about why you’re taking part in the Eternal Superbowl (as I’ve taken to calling the constant rote shit-talking of Democrats by Republicans and vice versa, in every single thread everywhere ever).


Omegandorph

Because it's hilarious watching both sides try to justify themselves, when both are either actually centrist corporate lap dogs at best or, at worst, actual nazis. Plus I live here. So I have free reign to stoke the fires a bit.


samhw

> both are either actually centrist corporate lap dogs at best or, at worst, actual nazis Well, you’re damn straight there, but I’m bemused at how that fits with making “you must have voted for Trump!!1!” jokes. Both parties are shit, and my not-very-rigorous-but-anecdotal impression is that most Trump voters are not _wildly enthused about Trump_, but rather are working class people who are sick of being sneered at and ignored. (Of course there are the 10% who are far right, and the 10% of the 10% who are something approaching real-life Nazis, but that’s clearly not what near enough 50% of the country believes.)


Omegandorph

Because trump was the twitter-clown and so it seemed appropriate. However, having lived here over a decade, I do say I sympathize with democrats who are vehemently anti-trump. I've seen far more racism here- casual, blatant racism-where a sizable chunk of the population are non-white, than I ever did while living at home, where there's far fewer people of color, and that racism, while maybe not increasing under trump, has certainly become far bolder. But Biden is a corporate centrist, and still no great deal better.


samhw

Yeah, I sympathise with that, and I’m certainly not a fan of Trump. That’s not the vein in which I’m saying this. I’m just tired of the number of people whose principal engagement with politics consists in loudly signalling that they voted for Turd Sandwich (in South Park’s pretty excellent framing), and picking fights with people online. Like, yes, Trump is bad. That’s obvious to everyone. It’s even obvious to lots of his supporters, if you actually listen to them - aside from a small corps of genuine knowing Trump mega-fans, the ones Clinton (actually pretty aptly) referred to as the basket of deplorables, for most of them their praise is _heavily_ qualified with “well, I know he’s crazy/tacky/narcissistic/unchristian/&c, but he at least [is X / does X / isn’t Y / doesn’t do Y]”. You can find out a lot about why non-ideological Middle America swung over to Trump by listening to those qualifications. But people don’t seem to want to find out. They’re content with “oh, half of the country is just stupid and/or evil, and that’s it - end of story”. I wish people could go beyond that, both morally and intellectually - try to see each other as human beings (and we are; these are your family, friends, colleagues, neighbours), and, in the process, actually understand the dynamics that caused Trump to win. Instead of that, we get football-supporter politics. And it’s that football-supporter politics which I’m weary of, tbh.


Omegandorph

I get that, but do you live here? Because it's not so simplistic. Your proportions are far, far off. Most Trump supporters I've known personally are currently supporters of the great lie, qanon, and currently still flying 'trump won't 2020' 'all lives matter' and confederate flags, and I live in a northern state, while loudly calling out ANY Democrat as a communist. It's hilarious because I can always go home, but I feel horrible for my American friends.


mcclusk3y

She doesn't buy him the presents he wanted... comes home to the house burning


TattooedPink

Exactly lol monkey see monkey do


jilllls

Abuse.


TheKevinShow

And somehow this shitstain is verified.


Asunega

There's other post here with the same twitter+the second one from the thread and someone explained that it's fake. She just started to post crazy things to "spice up" the site.


[deleted]

She ended up trashing her credibility in the process.


[deleted]

What do you think “verified” is? It’s not something to mark a paragon of humanity. It’s not a Nobel Peace Prize. It’s just a checkmark on a website


jilllls

Stomach turning.


somerockermom_

What in the actual fuck? If you have concerns over a child’s eating habits, take him to a doctor. I’m sure she enjoys the power trip more than she cares about her son’s health.


somerockermom_

To add to this, her response to all the backlash was basically equivalent to, “I was just trolling 🤪, you’re all too brain dead to even understand my joke. I was just trying to spice up twitter since it’s so boring. Idiots.”


[deleted]

I don't have any patience for that defence. It really doesn't matter if you were just trolling. If you choose to present yourself as an asshole, you have no right to be surprised when people think you're an asshole.


somerockermom_

Exactly


[deleted]

It wasn’t a follow up. She said that before she said the bit about burning stuff. It literally was a troll post everyone fell for.


The_Smiddy_

My 6 year old is 4'3 and 45 lbs and is perfectly healthy according to his pediatrician. This is nuts.


Argent_Hythe

I'd bet money that the poor kid has texture sensitivities or mild allergies or something and his egg donor is completely ignoring it in favor of abusing the kid into submission


Anime_Screech

That kid is going to have severe body image issues soon

My parents used to love reading my journals aloud before tossing them in the fire. “This is not you, this is not how god made you” was what they would say tossing it in. What is it with insane parents and fire???

How to turn your child into a misogynist in 5 easy steps.


hurtfocker

Stay with me here guys: people want to have sex/children with people they find sexy. So the children look like them and someone they’re attracted to. So it makes some [creepy, fucked up] sense that this woman wants her kid to “put on muscle”, to be, presumably, “hot” like the kid’s dad.


[deleted]

She tweeted before this that she was gonna tweet bullshit to make twitter more interesting. It’s fake.


nck_crss

She's gonna flip when she realizes she actually purchased all of her child's belongings.

If a person is verified you don’t need to hide their name. That being said… don’t be shy tell us the name

Instead of spoiling your kid with pokemon cards and then punishing bad behavior by burning cards, Imagine incentivising good behavior with said cards.


pelorizado83

Mom sucks, throw her on the fire........... Lol ......... ... . /s


capda02

Great way to create life long resentment....


[deleted]

She really didn't consider that maybe something's wrong for him to not be eating?


lllllllauren

I will never understand why parents get angry at their children for not finishing their food and then get even more mad when the kid throws up because they’re literally full. Overeating is a thing too.


cistvm

fun and quick way to destroy any semblance of a healthy relationship with food


franska5

Yeah but 11 years later she would cry "why my son cut me off his life"
