Meredith Brooks pretty much already covered the transgressivism of the word Bitch. Whoop de do. Oh now you have a tail

I hate this woman

So this chick clearly has PPD, and no support

She marries two-girls-one-octopus and she’s shocked he’s this kind of guy?

“Even when a parents pass away, or when it becomes necessary for an adult child to cut off contact, the grief of that relationship lives on,”

“It is not our job to make sure our child is close to all the adults in their life, it’s our job to make sure they can be close enough with us to process whatever other dynamics they are experiencing,”

“Perfect parenting is a burden to children, not a gift,”

“A secure parent is a conflict guide,”
Just going to whisper this to myself over and over when my kid turns 2

“So here are 4 steps to living a conflict free life with your children.
You can’t.
You really can’t
I’m so sorry but you can’t,”

This had me dying

“Notice I did not say we should tell them they are perfect, or that they can do no wrong, or put them on a pedestal. I said adore them,”

“People who want their kids to feel loved and secure will mistakenly think I’m saying we should let our children have whatever they want when they are upset or disregulated. Please do not do that. It will make them dependent on consumerism to regulate,”

“No one can enter a constant kumbaya stage with their children. That’s horse doo-doo. Every parent and child is destined to have seasons of strife and struggle,”

“Naturally, I spent years trying to exorcise my mom of those ghosts. I tried every spell a kid could come up with. I was compliant. I was silly. I was compassionate. I was firm and took charge. I worked my tail off. I prayed for her. I pleaded with her. I kept watch of her moods day and night and tried to morph into whatever it was I thought would make her better.
And in this way, her ghosts became my ghosts too”

“Cooperation is less about “I’m in charge,” and more about “I’m here to help you,” Secure parenting is not a battle between wills; it is a meeting of hearts and minds.

“Remember, we don’t decide who our children are or how they are wired, but we do have influence over how they feel about those things go through the ways we respond to them and work to accept them for who they were wired to be,”

Chapter 12 okay fire granny. No really

So granny’s solution is to sic the Maroy on Alex because they are a wastrel who messed up. Never mind that the wastrel employs them, nor that granny gave some pretty bad miscommunication with Alex. I mean very tropy miscommunication too

I’m anti religion but one more Christ’s Blood and I will make someone bloody

Also the dead don’t walk is repeated enough that I swear it was cut and paste to fill word count

The fungus is among us

Halfway someone dies, but our detective doesn’t even check the body to ID much less see COD
And the creepy hare doesn’t set off any bells?!

Chapter 2 all about MC country and gender
Chapter 4 we find out how they got tentitus which is a lot more fucking relevant to the plot
