my mom didn't physically abuse me; she smacked me if i misbehaved every once in a blue moon. same with spanking. my brother had to be temporarily institutionalized when i was young for clinical depression. she was always physically fit so she could be prepared to deal if he had a violent episode, and being as it runs…

it was a precaution on her part; i don't think we ever came to serious blows.

not that you've ever been good at getting attention in all your life probably but it's pretty hard to capitalize everything correctly when you're trying to respond to 20% decent people and 80% trolls who migrated over here from 4chan to hate-fap to some shit and a picture you posted. i mean DAMN i graduated mavis…

i never once said i grew up in a physically abusive household and methinks the crazy people here are the ones referring to a woman's body (mine) and its propensity to "breed"; not to mention stalking my every comment on this thread. could you be any more fucking creepy? seriously. buzz off.

breed? like i'm some fucking brood mare. go the fuck home.

mother-daughter relationships fascinate me. i remember asking my mom once what would happen if you had children and decided after a few years you didn't want them anymore and she assured me that would be impossible. EVEN with all the harm my mom caused it wasn't for lack of love, you know? she was the sole…

ok? run along now.

oh good god, that's me. my name is jen robnett. i'm a real girl living in philadelphia, not a troll.

i have no 'dreams of being a parent' on the docket, don't worry? i don't know what is so threatening and disturbing about an honest question, but whatever.

david lynch lived down the street from my apartment in philly for years, interestingly enough.

me and honey boo could be sisters don't you think.

the article wouldn't have been written if she was a normal-sized child. thats more of what i meant.

my mom did. it's a big part of the reason i ended up working with food and growing so much of my own. my whole motivation for getting a job, license and car as a teenager was so i could buy my own food and get myself to a gym.

it's just a snowball effect that comes with being in the spotlight. overweight and/or "odd" children that have a hard time fitting in or adhering to norms are always emotionally and socially stunted.

i remember being at a birthday party when i was 9 or 10 and i didn't like the gift my mom had bought for my friend. it was an outfit from sears or something to that effect, and i was embarrassed. we were all sitting in a circle opening the presents with the bday girl when i loudly announced "i hate this gift, i just…

remember this moment the first time your daughter looks you in the eyes and says "fuck you i hate you and wish that you'd die!" because it's going to happen. :(

a few people have said this to me (About my mom) over the years and she was horrible occasionally, yes, but she is also a product of her times. she married young to somebody 9 years her senior and never went to college. she was raised fundamentalist christian in northeast philly.

someone wrote a piece about terio (terrio?) on groupthink or a similar affiliate recently and it just made me so "ugh" i couldn't even reply. there was a backlog of exasperation from that.

i was an overweight child at certain points in my life and it is really such a difficult situation. i used to BEG my mother to buy different food but being as the rest of my family was naturally thin and easily metabolized junk food, my voice was kicked to the curb. (i'm also the youngest female w/ two older brothers…

lol
