Just catching up with Trash on TM.
when they talk about beards… Giles mentions how Prince Harry had to ask permission from the Queen to have a beard on his wedding day…
Trash says…
“I know a few people in the army that were quite cross with it because it felt like they weren’t allowed and he was, so it was one rule for them and one rule for him.”

She really doesn’t know EVERYONE doesn’t she!?

So basically her brother in law once mentioned it in passing how he couldn’t have a beard and she’s turned it into a thing with ALL HER FRIENDS.
 
I ask in all seriousness; does Ms James really not care if Alf’s mobility is stunted and curtailed for life?
Is she indifferent to the fact that, if she carries on ignoring his mobility issues, he will never be able to run for a train, ride a horse, play cricket, enter into school sports competitions, and may end up with arthritis (which is extremely, extremely painful)?
Does she care so little for him that she is prepared to make his world a small, linited one covered in obstacles that ‘normal’ bodied peoplr - like herself - can navigate with ease?
Does she care so little that she can watch, unmoved, as other children rip him to pieces with their cruel words and mockery, and may physically harm him because of his relative immobility?
Is she so oblivious to his suffering that she thinks it normal for a child of his age to be unable to run 100 yards, descend stairs, jump on a trampoline wirh both feet and even walk a few feet to the childminder’s?
His developmental issues aside*, she surely has to see how badly this reflects on her as a mother. As a person. As a ‘celebrity’. These threads would be infinitely slower, and vastly fewer in number, if only her attention-seeking were called out. But it is her treatment of Alf, and his unhappiness, that spurs us on - whether we are parents or childfree. And what we condemn her for is bleeding into the real world - her world, her career - because others are seeing what we see: that that little boy has serious mobility problems that could affect the whole of his life. If she’s not careful, he will detach from her altogether by the time he is eighteen. He may write a book about her, exposing her neglect of him to the world. And I can’t imagine that her vanity could permit her to be seen with a struggling, unnecessarily disabled child or young adult. Her career is her motherhood. If she continues to neglect the child, others will condemn and neglect her. It’s that simple.

*The jury is out on whether Alf is developmentally delayed, infantilised and under-stimulated, or autistic. As an autistic woman myself, I have been very wary of ‘diagnosing’ him via what we’ve seen on her social media. However, there are three ‘tells’ that have caught my eye: inability to make eye contact and when he does so, he seems distressed; hand-flapping and squawking, with disproportionate responses to minor situations; and lining up objects in neat rows. He should be assessed after his first year at school if more tells present themselves. I’m sure Ms James could monetise having a neurodivergent child: being an ‘autie’ mum and going through the official process re: diagnosis, treatment and so on. At least Alf might get sufficient attention then, albeit having a camera pointed in his face even more than he does already.
Oh - and cut and brush his hair. Letting your child look like a Dickensian urchin smacks of neglect (again).
I actually love you.
 
This evening’s monologue is so ridiculous given her current circumstances! Her children are both in childcare full-time during the week. And Ada takes a bottle so she’s able to go out in the evening. What further ‘freedom’ or return to normal is she actually seeking?! I can only assume she’s looking up to the likes of Millie Mackintosh and Binky Felstead who have teams of round-the-clock nannies to parent on their behalf.

Also she hasn’t found her ‘crew’ in motherhood because she’s never tried. She looks down on other mums and thinks she’s better than them. I have zero sympathy for her.
 
So when she was child-less she thought all her friends with kids didn’t have time for HER. It was never HER making the effort with them.
She touches on when you have a newborn and people dote on you but now that’s gone she doesn’t like it.

That’s why she’s got duck all mates now. She’s never been the one to make the effort and now she’s resorting to seeking attention from them via insta stories. This is not the way to get your friends back, or expect your social circle to magically grow.

I’m embarrassed for her. It doesn’t take a genius.
 
I thought exactly the same thing. She’s not put the two things together at all. I think it’s ok to acknowledge that you might not have been a good friend at the time and say omg if I could go back I’d have done things so differently with my mum friends but she doesn’t seem to connect the dots
 
I’m a broken record but the way she speaks to Alfie in that video! Like he’s just learnt to speak?! He’s old enough to have a normal conversation with so why is she asking him to repeat specific words?!
I honestly can’t work her out. It’s either she’s so disinterested in children and motherhood that she can’t see that it’s not normal because she’s not interested in finding out about development…

or she’s so narcissistic that the idea one of her kids wouldn’t be spectacular and perfect (like her) wouldn’t cross her mind
 
She must have been having herself a little tattle scroll and is reeling that we can all see it. Now she is going back to the whole deflection onto someone else for herself being a tit parent
This women didnt leave her child upstairs and alone in a house hosting a house party and dint bother to check on her child (who may i add slept in a very unsafe bed for risk of SIDS) covered in faeces and vomit and then laughed about it the next day

What?! Did this actually happen?
 
Having Alf try to (and fail) say those words while shoving his finger up his nose, why would she post that!?
And Ada trying the ice cream, she keeps quiet and TNB just laughs. Where's the engagement, the encouragement, the "Is it yummy, you're eating ice cream, it's cold isn't it?" - just the conversation?!

I don't dispute it can feel lonely as a mum when they are tiny, but I too feel that if she was lonely then and lonely now, she is the common denominator. She claims to be so happy in her own company but clearly not.
I think the overriding issue is that she doesn't get pleasure and satisfaction from being with her children. She needs not just conversation but validation from others and the ability to say she did, the story, the idea of it, whatever "it" is.
A lot of what I did as a single, or childless couple, was because I didn't have responsibility so I might as well. There was nothing to keep me home week in, week out. Now I'm happy to have a weekend in because I enjoy it, I have something at home that's as fulfilling as going out to be sociable. You still need a sense of adult fun and freedom from time to time of course but I don't feel trapped day to day like she does.
The one social aspect of her job, the podcast, she gave up. She buys company with Michael and London shopper now. She could easily organise meet ups, create a breast feeding cafe etc but she's not interested in child-centric things. It's not loneliness, it's boredom, lack of identity and dissatisfaction.
 
What?! Did this actually happen?

Ashley was early weeks of pregnancy with Ad so she wouldn’t have been drinking. We guessed she either didn’t have the monitor on or ignored his cries, like she used to film him crying from being cold on the monitor.
It doesn’t bear thinking about what could’ve happened to Alfie. The woman’s bleeping warped. That whole thread actually is shocking. Not long after that story she had the nerve to share NSPCC’s post on child abuse. Probably just to poke at us lot 🙄

It’s a shame This Morning producers haven’t seen this! Probably a good one to dig up since she keeps mentioning us/directing people here on her giveaways 🤣
 
@Autisteuse for PM. Not Ashley. Like someone’s put in her post comments LOL
I’ve actually often been tempted to go into politics, but I have the autistic-so-can’t-lie thing going on. One of the first things I’d reintroduce is Sure Start (minus the vast amount of cradle-to-grave surveillance data accrued by every government agency that could hamper a child’s progress and privacy) so that all children could receive wraparound childcare, with health visitors, assessors, speech and language therapists and specialists in neurodivergence, so that children like Alf could be assessed from a young age. It would prevent so much hardship and heartache for the good parents - like you lovely lot - out there who have to wait months and years for any recognition of their children’s struggles, ensure that any affected little one could evolve at the same rate as their peers, provide work opportunities and ready children for school (no more six year olds in nappies), and actually save the taxpayer money - because if a child has a good start, mental health problems and criminality are less likely to emerge later.
I would also create a bill stating that children under the age of fourteen could not have their faces shown on social media for commercial purposes, that any monies made from shilling out infants to sell products prior to the enactment of the law goes into a child trust fund (rather than the child having to Judy-Garland it by working to support their grown up family), that children’s images cannot be stored by AI for identification purposes (and, sadly, far worse in this hideous day and age), and that older children have the right to sue parents who display them like performing seals online on the basis of injury to feelings, privacy, dignity and autonomy.
Oh, and I’d make sure that rather than signing trade deals with the Caribbean and Micronesia (worthy though those collective nations of course are), we’d do a lot more business with Europe so that our economy can grow; and link wages to productivity so that if a parent, for example, wants to stay at home to bring up their child, they can do so on one wage.
Just for starters.
It’ll never happen. But I do so hope that someone will see dear little Alf’s parlous state and intervene, or Ms James belatedly realise that her occupation and income are going to crash if she continues to overlook screamingly observable deficits and deficiencies in Alf’s mobility, speech and language acquisition. Because people of the 21st century, cynical, jaded and broke they might be, still care about little ones’ welfare, and seeing a little boy with uncut, matted hair shoved in front of screens, unable to run and jump and climb, unable to speak and make himself understood, cuts us right to the heart. It breaks our hearts.
Love to all.

You have such a great way with words. I think we can all agree that on this thread we are rooting for Poor Alfie and have his best interests at heart.
 
I don’t believe she’s lonelier now than she was in her single days. Just because she surrounded herself with people, doesn’t mean she wasn’t lonely. I think she was trying to fill the void. She just sounds depressed. Get into therapy. There’s nothing about your life that’s causing these apparent issues, it’s internal.

You will never get that old life back. Ever. Even if you ditch Tommy and the kids and go back to London solo. Everyone else has moved on. It’s time you did too.

That is absolutely horrendous. I cannot believe that. She’s vile.
