I’m confused because in the early seasons her lips are really plump, but now they’re not.

I am watching the episode where Kim and Kris Humphries register for their wedding. They do not agree on drinking glasses and Kris (mom) criticizes him for not liking the ones Kim and Kris (mom) chose.

Unless the individual in question’s chosen career to advance is “nude model,” and unless taking an elective class called “Performing the Self” (which probably carries a 10-week drop period) is the thing standing in the way of this advancement, this hypothetical seems a bit far-fetched.

I had a student in Week 6 of an 8-week class ask me if there was a textbook he was supposed to be using.

Ha! I got yelled at after therapy regularly as a kid for embarrassing my mom! My grandmother is a narcissist so I got a little of what was handed down through my mom.

Can I ask - did you always know your mom was “different?” Or did it take a while to realize?

So do you think it’s good to remain hands-off? Do step-kids generally want that?

I’m the stepmom of kids whose mother has bpd.

Oh my god. I’m glad you posted this. My stepkids have a mother with bpd and I’m thinking about how their spouses will need support when they grow up. They are very much under her mind control right now, but we’re hoping they’ll find a way out eventually. When they do, and if they can maintain healthy relationships,…

So I’m going to try and word this really carefully, because the stepmother conversation is such a challenging one and I don’t want to make any commentary on your situation, more on the question you pose . . .

YES. But I don’t think that will fit on the little dropdown menu.

Thanks for this. I am so sorry you had to go through this. They are 12, 14, and 16, and I have been in their lives since they were 7, 9, and 11. I keep telling myself that one day the kids will realize what she’s doing, but it’s hard to imagine what their lives are like living with her now. I am a fighter so my…

My fiancé’s ex-wife is one of these moms and he’s always like “I know she loves the kids . . .” and I’m always “No; no, she doesn’t. Love is not treating your kids like crap. Love is not alienating your kids from their father. Love is not failing to support them in school. Love is not relying on them to support you…

Jezebel needs a subpage like Kitchenette only devoted solely to Kardashian discourse.

Do you have advice for how to support kids whose mother has bpd? My step children’s mother has untreated bpd and they have started acting her agenda out on their dad, accusing him of abuse and saying things like “You were never a father to us.” I’ve been around long enough to know that’s not even a little bit true.…

I know I am late to the conversation, but do you have any advice for people who are parenting kids who grew up like you did? I am the soon-to-be step mom of three kids whose mom has bpd and npd. They have started acting out her agenda on my fiancé, accusing him of abuse, saying he has a personality disorder, etc. Last…

HOW do you handle it? I am planning to be a vegan mom and to raise a “vegan in my house” kid. The kid’s dad eats meat, but he doesn’t eat meat when he’s with me, so he’s on board. Do you control what your kid eats when he/she goes to friends’ houses?

I just don’t know any other vegans (except my parents), so even if I wanted to!

Protein is not hard. B12 is hard.
