Traits of Trifling Parents
8. Not Putting Your Child First
Every time I see Janelle on MTV’s Teen Mom 2, my ovaries weep. No amount of editing in the world can create her obvious pre-occupation with herself over the needs of her child. She leaves little Jace behind week after week to chase after on again/off again boyfriend Kieffer and try to make that dysfunctional relationship work unaware of the dysfunction she is creating between she and her child. When she is home, she is constantly disrespecting and cussing out her mother, most of the time right in front of baby Jace. Whether you planned to have a child or not, once you bring a life into this world, it’s no longer about you or what you want. Don’t mistakenly believe that just because you’re children can’t talk, they aren’t affected by what you’re doing and not doing for them.
