I think bitching and moaning about how much of a BURRRRDEN your child is on the internet is bad parenting.
Not "get CPS involved" bad parenting, but really inappropriate and hurtful behavior.
without some definite proof of abuse or neglect to take to CPS, it's all just slanderous finger-pointing
Rem ipsa loquitur. I'm sure she provides food, shelter, and medical care, and I highly doubt she is physically or emotionally abusive to Trinity.
However, her words about Trinity are hurtful, and unless everything she writes on her blog and says in interviews about her is completely wrongly-expressed, the attitude she has toward her is grudging and narcissistically jealous.
So I don't think she's a horrible mother in the "call the authorities" way, but I think her self-centered and childish behavior is going to leave Trinity with a lot of psychological issues to work out in her adulthood.
My parents were on the narcissistic and uninvolved side, and it's been tough for me and my brother. And they were very good about telling us they loved us and believed in us, despite their limitations. And they didn't have a posse of groupies enabling their egotrip.
