| QUOTE (DonsiPad @ 8/14/2022, 06:56 PM) The recaps here are good enough for me anymore. It’s rare that I actually download the video or find the rumble. I just don’t care. Now if Jen decides to spill some divorce tea, I’ll find the link. But usually it’s not even worth watching.
I haven't watched Jen regularly since Donny was born (might have been even before that). The people on here are so great at recapping and discussing every little detail, that just following along here is good enough to keep you in the loop without even having to watch her videos. Only time I ever actually watch anything is when it's too juicy not to (like the divorce video). |

| QUOTE (WhyAmIHere @ 8/10/2022, 06:00 PM) But what gives? Is Don giving her silence money? Or stay the hell away money? Clearly having a nice luxurious lifestyle with his new honey and mixed fam of 7, and this bish gets a 55K car, a new fancy ass fence, mold remediation, a whole exterior paint job for cosmetic reasons only, and plans to fly back and forth to her new love, TruckRig, for 5 months? I mean I know there's the Patreon, but still.
I wonder about the money too. I know Don is well off, but both his ex-wife and new wife obviously love to spend money. It has to be costing him a fortune these days to keep everyone happy. |

| QUOTE (Dolly_Girl @ 6/26/2022, 04:51 PM) CC seems to love to dance - so why doesn't Jen take her to ballet/dance classes? Donny is almost old enough for T-ball or would she rather he play with dolls and dress up in Minnie Mouse dresses? Those poor kids need to be socializing with kids their own age outside of the SK and be involved in SOME KIND of extracurricular activities.
Jen is the laziest and most disinterested, detached woman I've ever seen as a "mother".
CC took gymnastics (and possibly dance) from what I remember. This was when they were still married though and Don was the one taking her every Saturday morning to class and then out to eat breakfast, while Jen stayed home with Donny.
I said it a long time ago but there's no way in hell Jen is signing the kids up for extracurriculars (especially sports) now that she and Don are divorced. That would require her sacrificing her precious time for her kids, including on days she doesn't have them, to go to practices and games/competitions/recitals. I'm sure she's also relayed that message to Don, should he want to sign the kids up for something. She probably told him he could but that he's responsible for picking them up and taking them to practices, games, etc. She's definitely that selfish. |

| QUOTE (Buff Emiky @ 5/22/2022, 06:23 PM) I do think she could address it in a vague and diplomatic way to shut people up from bringing it up all the time to her. It’s weird that she just ignores it.
I really thought she would have acknowledged their union by now, if for no other reason than to get sympathy from her Jenions. I think the fact that she hasn't speaks volumes. She not only thought that Don would never find better than her and move on, but she thought everything would remain the same (including her relationship with the Rosses). I think it knocked her on her ass when she found out about Tens and she has not been able to recover or even come to terms enough with it to acknowledge it on camera. |

| QUOTE (Trash Plate @ 2/19/2022, 12:59 PM) Her refusing to put on makeup seems like a Glennon Doyle reaction to spite Don and all things Don. In the comments she alluded to taking care of her appearance as something she would do in her former life (with Don).
I wouldn't be surprised if it's also a way to spite her mom. Jill is of that era when women were expected to look and act a certain way to nab a husband then keep him happy. I'm sure there have been multiple snide comments over the years (especially after the separation) about Jen's looks and how she could put in more effort or should have put forth more effort to look nice for Don. Jill just comes off as so critical and judgmental. |

| QUOTE (TuesdayErrands @ 2/18/2022, 07:09 PM) If Jen was smart, she would have just acknowledged the fact that Don was remarried a long time ago. Now it’s like some weird secret, which even the Jenions are curious about. She can’t even have her kids around during her IG livestreams, as they might spill even more information that she wants to keep hidden. (Never forget that it was Charlotte who first told us about Jen’s new house. So much has happened since then, but we’ve been reliant on Bakery informants to keep us updated.  ) It’s just a fact that her kids have a whole other family life when they’re not with her. There’s no use in pretending that she’s a single mom who occasionally drops her kids off with their dad. That is ridiculous.
I really thought she would finally acknowledge Don's new family when the kids came down with COVID. Despite her traveling all around the country/world, I just knew in true Jen fashion she'd be all high and mighty and use it as an opportunity to take a subtle dig at Don and Tens for "not taking proper precautions" to protect the vulnerable children. But she didn't. Now it's getting to the point that I feel like the longer she doesn't acknowledge it the more awkward it is. All it takes is one quick comment of "Don has remarried" and she never has to speak of it again. |

| QUOTE (poppedintowholefoods @ 1/29/2022, 07:52 PM) I’ve seen her vacation a ton with Poopsie and Suzanne but has she ever gone on vacation with her own parents?
Not that I can think of, though I could be wrong. It's really hard for me to imagine Jill and Gravy agreeing to go to a place like Disney (even if it's to help their sad divorced daughter with her two young children). I get the vibe that while they love their grandchildren, they are way more hands-off (and less fun) than Poopsie and Suz. |

| Someone in the last thread said it best when they said this has nothing to do with Jen and everything to do with Don and his new wife and family. Jen has had issues with her privacy being "violated" since she started YouTube, but only now she is suddenly seriously compelled to speak out/do something about it? Not buying it. This was likely spurred on by Don who chewed Jen out when Tens was discovered and the real weirdos (aka the Jenions) started harassing her and her family/ex-husband.

| The comment about people crank-calling their hotel when her and Don were on vacation...I can't imagine that was ever anyone from the Bakery. The same with whoever showed up to the house that one time (I don't remember if this was ever confirmed) or whoever might have called the cops for a mental health check after the Lee meltdown.
In the end, she bears large responsibility in those incidents for oversharing info about herself and her family from Day 1 (and continuing to do so even after). Of course, like most things (like her divorce or lack of adult relationships), she will never take any responsibility. |

| QUOTE (SpatchcockTurkey @ 9/15/2021, 09:14 AM) Since she turned off comments and this video seems directed at the Bakery, I’d put money on her being here reading. Hi Jen!
It's definitely at least partially directed at the Bakery. Specifically, the comment about how people like to point out how her following has dwindled. That's definitely in reference to whoever the people on here were that kept posting screenshots of her Social Blade numbers. I can't imagine anyone else has been doing that or paying close enough attention to her numbers, so she definitely has been reading here. |

| QUOTE (Good Morning Friends @ 9/1/2021, 11:44 AM) I wonder if it was Don or Jen who didn't want hired help?
If Don refused help for Jen but has no problems hiring help for Tens, then Jen is about to huff from those huge nostrils so hard she'll fly to the moon.
I don't think Don would have been against hiring a nanny. And if he was against it, I think it would have been more because he didn't understand the need for it. Especially when Jen didn't have a real job and everything significant was hired out (house cleaning, yardwork, handiwork, etc.) Take away child care and she's just sitting on her ass all day. They also conveniently had family living down the street who I am sure was more than happy to take the kids from time to time when needed.
As someone else said above, Jen wanted to be a mommy martyr. But it's not because she loved the kids so much. It's because she wanted the head pats and the adoration (and to also hold it over Don's head). The sad part is not getting help probably made her dislike being a mother even more and drove her marriage to fall apart. |

| QUOTE (GurninglikeJen @ 9/1/2021, 01:04 PM) IG swing stories look pitiful. Why are those children not screaming higher higher, legs up in the air, heads thrown back. They look as though the life has been completely sucked out of them
To be fair, it must be such a culture shock to come back to Jen's place after being at Don's. While they're with Don, they're around their three step-siblings plus their cousins/extended family and partaking in activities/get-togethers on the regular. Then they go with Jen and it's back to a cold, museum-like home with no fun activities and no outside interaction with anyone but the occasional visits from their elderly grandparents. I would be depressed too if I was them. |

| QUOTE (Rumpus Guitar @ 9/1/2021, 11:47 AM) Omg how do we think Jen will handle knowing a nanny is with her kids? She has lost major control
I personally don't think Jen can really have any opinion on the subject if the reason for a hiring nanny is that Don now has custody of the kids most days and his and Tens' work schedules do not allow them to be fully available when the kids are not in school. For all we know, the reason he has them more these days could be because Jen has willingly chosen to give up more of her time with them.

| QUOTE (justpassingthru @ 8/16/2021, 10:11 PM) She may not have given up legal custody of the kids but I'm starting to believe Don has had them full time for many months now.
My original theory for a while was that Don had requested more time with the kids this summer so there would be more opportunities for the new blended family to bond. However, now I believe that the Instagram meltdown from a few months ago probably led to the now very lopsided custody arrangement. I also think it spurred Don and Tens to put a rush on getting married so soon after their engagement because the courts would be more likely to allow the kids to go live full-time with their father and stepmother rather than their father and his girlfriend. |

| QUOTE (Bangle Bitch @ 8/7/2021, 01:16 PM) Emily asked her to do all that (you saw that list). But when Jen walked her through all of it, Emily was very disinterested. If I would have spent 12 hours assembling furniture I would expect some damn gratitude. Princess Emily didn’t seem to have any concept of what a big task that was.
Speaking of this, I always wondered if Emily actually asked Jen to do it all. It seemed to me like Jen often volunteered herself to take on big Ross family projects as a way to make herself seem like an integral/important part of the family since she wasn't a "true Ross." I also think she did it so no one would question what the hell a late 20s/early 30s housewife with no job and no kids did all day besides spending money. |
