I think Amber should let Kristina mother Leah and just create a different relationship with Leah bc being her mother ain’t it, as unfortunate as that is. Amber is too busy trying to be seen as mommy just bc she birth her, while not actually being mommy.

I love how Dad put things in perspective for her. “If you don’t spend time with your mom, you’ll never form a bond.” Also “Mom’s important”. It’s sad that she’s so aware of things. Hopefully Mom does what she has to do to start healing their relationship.

amber has never put that girl first. leah wants to write her off already she's only 12. i think both gary and kristina handled this convo very maturely. kristina saying 'i'm just a bonus mom" no way, u r her mom, kristina. unfortunately for leah, amber has a victim mindset. amber is gonna see this and play the absolute victim. she'll probably say stuff like, 'i tried to make a relationship with leah but she didn't want it.' it's no different than jenelle when it comes to jace, no different than ryan when it comes to bentley and no different than adam when it comes to aubrey.

I went through what Leah went through, my mom chose drugs and guys over me all the time, never came to my birthday because she had a new bf, never came over for any holidays because of being high and having a bf. I was 12 when my mom finally tried coming into my life and I didn’t want to because I knew at that time I wasn’t important to her. Leah has Kristina, she’s very lucky to have her and to have someone who loves you as their own child is a very special thing.

Leah has every right to not want to see Amber. It's clear that she and Amber don't have that "bond" so why force it? It's Amber's job to see Leah not the other way around. It's annoying when they put that on the child and not the parent.

Hopefully she’ll be able to express how she feels one day without Gary trying to get her to change her mind because what he feels is best. She’s telling him how she feels and she said no that she didn’t want to invite her mom. He’s opening up room for her to feel rejected again. I know he means well, but maybe what he feels is best right now, isn’t healthy for Leah.

@ccalexander1924 3 жыл бұрын

What I got from Gary’s speech was more about not regretting it later. Amber is still her mom. I think Gary is trying to include Amber bc he is hoping Leah will have that relationship with her mom one day and it won’t happen if she completely shuts Amber out. What I do think is Amber is going to regret choosing men over Leah one day bc Leah just might not want to have anything to do with Amber once she is 18
