Thank you! I am feeling the exact same way. I’m 35 ffs! I should not feel like a need a wheelchair and to get home in time for Matlock after reading a story about a new music album.

I am 26 and none if it made sense to me either. Ahhhh
I realize this will probably make me sound super uncool, but what on God’s green earth is happening here? I read it twice and I still...I just don’t...Am I old now?
Yes! Thank you! I’ve read it a couple of times and just can’t make sense of it. I feel like a child who can’t read.
I am now officially one of “the olds” because not one damn sentence in this article makes a damn lick of sense to me.
My lips are real!
What really burns my bra is that this entire family has adopted styles from us “urban” women and all of a sudden it’s chic. Yet when my and my girls were rocking acrylic nails, bamboo knockers and timbs we were referred to as hoodrats. My lips are real!
Khloe irritates me with her “around the way” girl from the hood shit. Like plz take off the Compton baseball hat and go have a seat in your mansion, rich girl.
I like how he held out for an entire minute. Inspiring will power.
Yeah I feel like so many people make fun of Amber and Blac but those women are street smart and know exactly what play to make.
Amber and Blac are in here for a long haul daytime soap revenge plot. Which will eventually end with them taking over the Kardashian empire and booting the family out of their mansion.
This is like, European monarchs level of family dating fuckery.
I love you for making my day.
To be fair, taking care of a baby is not the equivalent of filling out forms and doing “money and time math.” We need a standard that’s a bit higher than “not struggling to take care of one’s self.” (I’m not saying this situation was handled well by the state, of course.)
As someone who is physically disabled by a genetic condition that makes it IMO unethical for me to knowingly risk passing it on to a child (I had a daughter before I was diagnosed/had any clue), I find this to be just another extension of what I have faced in terms of wanting to adopt. My health precludes me,…
Sigh. I have a learning-disabled parent with a below-average IQ. Not 70, but not great. I have a lot of feelings about this article but I’ll sum it up with, “I think intellectually disabled people can be great parents, but they are also not always ideal parents and their children will face many, many hurdles that go…
(Sara’s parents, additionally, had a history of DCF investigation and intervention in the ‘90s, and weren’t the most fit secondary choices, either.)
I agree with you, but this woman did everything she was supposed to do to get better at taking care of the baby. The answer for her is not to take her child away, but to set her up with some kind of program to teach, help, and maybe monitor her until she is competent enough.
I think you bring up a compelling case in regard to the ways that parents get discriminated against in the system. I have to admit as someone who worked in the Massachusetts court system including in regard to child protective cases, the practice of naming the DCF worker who did the initial investigation kind of…
Because that costs money!
