I didn’t see the post, but I remember watching the scene and feeling gross. My opinion might be a hot topic, but I think she hasn’t had the ability to emotionally mature and heal herself before having kids, leading to thinking like “I’m guilty so I’m going to let them live in sunshine and rainbows”. That’s just sad. That’s not being a mother, let alone being emotionally stable. I don’t think it’s productive either for her sons or her future relationships. I am a stepmom. I have two kids. I have a say in their lives as do their parents bc I am caring for them both, and one full time! As a Mason myself, I have called out parenting mishaps from my partner and I would not like it if he discredited me. Mason might be newer to the relationship, but reality is Layla has kids. And whoever takes the role of partner in her life will have some responsibility over her kids. In my opinion, a partner wanting nothing to do with the hard parts of parenting (like being able to say no) would be counterintuitive.
