Does she make anyone else feel tit. I’ve been away once with my daughter, for a weekend break and she’s the same age as Raffy.
This will be their 5/6th holiday since Jan!!!

Honestly she does these holidays for her, not the kids. No two year old has ever expressed an interest in going to the italian lakes. In my experience two year olds generally like puddles, paddling pools, mud, libraries and for an extra special treat Peppa pig world, Thomas land, cbeebies. Although admittedly those aren't cheap. Toddlers like the idea of a plane, but the reality is dull. A short trip on a train or a double decker bus would be more suitable for them.

She obviously doesn't have a happy life. The health anxiety on that insta post was palpable. She has disordered eating if not a full blown eating disorder. Generalised anxiety. Perfectionist obsessions. And has not been protected by the people that are supposed too. She's also not protecting her children, and is projecting her issues on to them.

I'm sure you protect your child, I'm sure you let them play in puddles, watch TV, have some down time, eat chocolate buttons. It's really easy to compare and feel guilty, but truly in this situation, you are not the person who should feel guilty. Lake como, LA nor Australia can't make up for a compromised childhood. ❤️

Grabbys outfit looks a bit like something a teenager would've worn in the late 1980s and more shockingly, it hails from Asda George. I'm guessing a lot of the brands she used to use have gone bust {the curse of giving stuff to influencers and pissing off your actual bonafide loyal customers}.

What TF is she wearing in that airport shot? Only that Ben only has one tshirt and it's pink I'd assume it was his.

Lake Garda bingo suggestions:
Peach or pink gelato in front of an orange or brown wall.
The miserable fold up brown and grey buckets.
The brown striped towels on the kiddos.
Her in front of pink orange and brown walls staring at her giant feet.
Ratlas with a snotty nose and tomato sauce all over his face.
Rehashing the same "tips" as her last 3 trips to the same place.

Recreating the "tradition" of a shot of the 4 of them sat on the beach facing away, taken using a tripod but you can see the clicker in her hand.

The blow up flamingo ring which resembles a floating sex toy 😁

A white T-shirt/vest would’ve looked better. As shown on the George website
 
All the holidays they have had and I bet not once have they been to a water park. She only posts legoland etc on stories as does not fit her grid aesthetic. A playground before sunrise is as child orientated as it gets.
I’d love to know how her mind works especially when in a situation like being on holiday. I bet it’s frantic in that head constantly thinking where they are going/tick off and what outfits the family need to wear to match aesthetics of destination! Probably stressing if she is going to make the gelato shop before siesta. Fretting if someone else happens to be on the beach at 7am and ruins her deserted kiddos on beach shot. It must be exhausting to be her. Literally all of it for the gram.
My daughter is same age as Freya and we have had one UK camping holiday plus few UK weekend trips. I would love to have had just a few of her holidays (the destinations not the experience!) but they just look too much hard work and not like a holiday at all. We have a holiday now booked for next year and I am pretty sure I will appreciate it far more than grabby appreciates a single thing in her life.

That’s exactly what it will be like - matching outfits packed and laid out every day for the ‘gram photo ops, plans in her notes for every day tick off the ‘to do’ list making sure photos are redone from previous visits. Alarms set so they’re first at the playground/on the beach so they can get photos with no one spoiling the background. It must be exhausting and none of it sounds like fun. Not to mention the obsession with getting her steps in.

Alarms set 😂 I’m laughing as it’s most likely true!
 
I wonder if she really saved that much money on the flights that it made more sense to fly to Milan, hire a car and drive 2 hours to the lake rather than fly to Verona and catch the train to Garda, which is very easy.
Also, bingo on the photos from the back sat by the water and the filming of the delicious Italian produce (ie tomatoes that are not in plastic punnets) that she probably won’t buy.
