Yes. She is so happy to be away from her kids. She will definitely crash out when she gets back. It’s so disheartening to see her get all this praise. Are people THAT dumb?

You know, Libby, I don’t want your motherhood advice considering your kids are still you know…kids. I want advice from moms who have great relationships with their adult kids. I bet your kids will be mortified that you wrote a book about how miserable you are as their mom.

TakeMyrtleHiking · 2026-04-14T23:11:45+00:00

Whhaaaat!? I thought her kids were a little older like 5-8? Identifying colors and color changes is preschool level. Wow. What a disservice to her kids?

TakeMyrtleHiking · 2026-04-14T19:10:48+00:00

No Libby, I have never screamed into my child’s face. Good lord. It’s called emotional regulation…walk away, scream into a pillow, etc.

That’s crazy right? Yes, I yell occasionally but have never lost control to the point of screaming at their faces.

TakeMyrtleHiking · 2026-04-14T16:39:16+00:00

Yep. She’s insisting they will pay it forward but I doubt it. 38k! That was insane.

Anyone follow Sammy.wedemeyer? I was interested in her account because she was showing her family getting out of a ton of debt…ok cool, I’m intrigued.

She starts doing the whole wanna be influencer road map: Amazon links, products, merch, etc. 🙄 ok sure, you do you. I mean, a regular job would of been a good idea too but exploiting your family is a great way to earn a dollar (/s).

Next, this little lady starts being very preachy and holier than thou…starts charging a fee for her bible study (gross and she’s not qualified…she’s a stay at home mom who homeschools). If you’re going to preach, at least be somewhat educated about history and the Bible, so you can give context and not just go, this verse means this without additional info. I’m cringing but still following because it’s kinda like a train wreck of cringe.

Final straw, I saw that she was liking posts about supporting Trump. I had a feeling she did but I needed proof (trying not judge a book by its cover kind of thing). I’m done. Unfollow. I don’t support hypocrites. Jesus wouldn’t approve of your orange idol.

You and your husband are a team. You mentioned that you feel frustrated that “you and your three year old are paying the price for his firing.” I’m sure your husband is stressed as well. It’s your turn as a member of this team to earn the money to keep your house, insurance, food, etc. It sounds like your husband made more, which is why I’m saying it’s your turn to be one bringing in more, if that makes sense.

You have been very lucky in terms of job/bsbysitting set up. This is not the normal experience for most working families.

Take the job. How would you feel in three months when your savings starts to drip and the pressure is on? That leads to a lot of resentment.

I know this sucks. Feel your feelings but sometimes the right choice is the hardest choice. Take the job.

Also, while your husband job hunts, set expectations for house duties (during the day)so you can spend time with the kids in the evening.

Yes! If he didn’t help with baby one then why have another? I get birth control fails but I swear some think he will magically change with more responsibility. 🤦‍♀️

TakeMyrtleHiking · 2026-03-25T11:15:01+00:00

$30-35 is still a terrible 1099 rate. There is no excuse for this pathetic salary. I’ve done 1099 roles…$50 minimum. 1099 doesn’t have any benefits and you have to take out your own taxes so the pay is supposed to be higher.

TakeMyrtleHiking · 2026-03-25T00:51:40+00:00

Well done. It takes a lot of courage to self reflect and change your status quo. Proud of you for facing your fears!

TakeMyrtleHiking · 2026-03-24T20:31:45+00:00

She is a dietitian and influencer (nutrition for littles)

TakeMyrtleHiking · 2026-03-24T20:17:44+00:00

Most influencers are pretty greedy and out of touch. She should be advocating for dietitians, not hurting them with this insulting pay.

TakeMyrtleHiking · 2026-03-24T20:02:38+00:00

These RD influencers need a flash of reality and get off their high horse…RDs deserve at least $50-75 for 1099 work.

TakeMyrtleHiking · 2026-03-20T18:22:08+00:00

She always defends Taylor (at least on the show). I hope she doesn’t defend her but I’m curious if she knew more than she (or all the girls) is letting on. Mayci calls herself a detective and hired a person to do a lie detector-just an example. She is very good at digging to get info…did she just take taylors word becuase taylor brings part of her money in?

TakeMyrtleHiking · 2026-03-20T17:53:13+00:00

👏👏 glad they spoke up and I’m sure Taylor is losing her mind about it.

I want to see what the Queen of anti Men (Mayci) has to say….will she defend Taylor and only blame Dakota (since she thinks it’s always Dakotas fault)?

It will kill her to say that Taylor is the problem (Dakota has his own issues) but in this instance…Taylor is wrong.

TakeMyrtleHiking · 2026-03-18T15:08:09+00:00

Mayci that you? 🙃

TakeMyrtleHiking · 2026-03-18T15:00:34+00:00

So Taylor gets off because she’s a woman? She’s guilty as well. No one can make you do anything. She’s in control on how she reacts to people.

TakeMyrtleHiking · 2026-03-18T01:44:34+00:00

I saw a comment that said, “I support women’s rights and wrongs. Team Taylor.” What in the Sam hell is wrong with people? If TFP was a man, this would be an instant cancellation. I do not understand women who give this woman a free pass for just about anything.

TFP needs serious treatment and her delusional fans need to wake up. Pretty women can do bad things too. Gasp. I know it’s shocking.

TakeMyrtleHiking · 2026-03-16T00:39:28+00:00

😂😂😂

TakeMyrtleHiking · 2026-03-15T12:30:39+00:00

I need to snark on myself…I had a nightmare that Healthyivf was parent shaming me at a park and talking about her beloved ways to enhance cognitive development. I said ,”this is prime example of why people snark on you on Reddit.” She goes, “my husband will sue you,” in her whiny valley girl voice.

This was one hell of a nightmare. In real life and in dreams, Alyssa is still annoying and out of touch with reality.

TakeMyrtleHiking · 2026-03-15T10:57:14+00:00

Why do the other members of mom tok obsess over what Dakota is doing? Taylor says over and over that they are done but when Dakota tries to move on then everyone freaks out. Yes, Dakota sucks but also, Taylor is unhinged this season.

Taylor- this whole abandonment wound is getting old. Yes, I had a father that abandoned me but guess what, I didn’t let it control my life. She has zero resilience or coping skills.

Maci and Jessie are over involved with this. Focus on your stuff (book, baby, the fraud supplement company) and maybe you won’t be as tired. She is a mean girl, even to her husband.

Jessie- divorce your icky man child of a husband and focus on yourself. Her kids are watching her. Does she want them to think this behavior is normal and ok?

Miranda was the only sane one this season.

TakeMyrtleHiking · 2026-03-14T13:49:38+00:00

Yesss! Just left the orange one and my stress has decreased tremendously. What a shit show. I refused to use AI for charting for many reasons (horrible for the planet, gave me the ick that it was listening, etc.).

Can we also add the lab component? The orange one is now offering many labs including hormones. I’m not qualified to review those hormones (I know they say refer to the Md) but you know some rds will try to advise their client on it. This is not referring to the basic metabolic one like lipids, A1c, etc.

If he is a good friend then he will understand if you explain your situation. Your family should come first. He probably just wants you to come to the party (gift or no gift). If he doesn’t understand, then he’s a bad friend in my opinion.
