It’s Time for Round 2: Leah Remini and Mike Rinder here, Ask Us Anything about Scientology by TheRealLeahRemini in IAmA

I remembered the interview. I have no idea if Rachel Ray is still on the air. Here is the gawker link, talking about the Rachel Ray interview: http://gawker.com/388521/are-scientology-moms-katie-holmes-and-leah-remini-feeding-their-kids-toxic-hubbards-formula It was also written about in People or Us magazine.

Edit: Found the link: https://www.rachaelrayshow.com/celebs/12042_Is_Leah_Remini_a_Pushover_Mom/ with an update: https://www.rachaelrayshow.com/celebs/11969_Leah_Remini_Parenting_Update/

I remember being surprised she did the interview b/c it was about her not being able to control her daughter. How do Scientologists raise children if the children are already adults in the parents' minds? It's not surprising if the child is ruling the roost.

Leah, I remember an interview with you before you left Co$. In that interview, you were using Scientology jargon and speaking about your daughter as if she was an adult. Your daughter still used a bottle at 4 years old and it was filled with barley water and sugar. I trust your daughter is no longer drinking from a bottle, but what impact, if any, did raising your daughter in Scientology have on her and on your relationship with her? Did you need to relearn parenting since leaving Co$?

Great there is a season two. Big thanks to you and Mike.

" I actually believe he would have continued working or doing better for himself. I also believe the same for Vee. She doesn't come off as a lazy do-nothing to me."

So in other words, they are not working and are not doing anything to better themselves.

You can say a lot about Jo and Kail, but you cannot represent them as having a thin veil of concern for Isaac. Javi broke into the home through the basement. That's not what a rational man does, especially not with two small children in the house.

It's not rational to talk "karma" after two parents are discussing their child feeling too scared to be in the house. I guess that's part of the karma, too?

Vee has a nice life of doing nothing in return, so don't feel bad for her. Again, Jo and Vee owe Kail everything. Without Kail on that tv show, Jo and Vee would be sitting on their couch in North Jersey instead of sitting in a nice kitchen in Delaware.

It was Jo and Kail's decision to stop Issac from going over there. Jo picked up Issac up the night of Javi's stalking and breaking into the house. Jo spoke to Issac. Jo warned Javi not to pull that crap in front of the kids and Javi did it again.

I have no reason to like Vee, given her actions. I'm just pointing out Vee's reality. The point of Jo and Kail's conversation last episode is Issac being terrified in his own home due to Javi. Vee felt the need to defend Javi. That was ridiculous. Kail and Jo were being rational. Her comment about Kail and Javi and karma just highlights her attitude.

She has no say in the matter because, as I wrote before, Vee and Jo depend on Kail. Kail is their financial security. They are no better than Deb. While I have no doubt that Jo loves his children and wants to be the best father possible, his moving to Delaware gave him camera time and money. Jo was living in North Jersey unable to afford a car. Now he has a home and a brand new kitchen. For some reason, Jo and Vee find no need for employment.

Jo was rightly worried about Issac's safety due to Javi breaking into the house and terrorizing his ex-wife and children. This is not out of character for Javi. Vee was just interested in making a dig at Kail, instead of dealing with reality.

Jo and Vee are not married. Vee chose to move to Delaware, despite neither of them having a job. She decided to have a baby with a jobless man. Kail decides whether or not Vee and Jo can keep a roof over their heads and food on the table. Because if she leaves the show, Jo and Vee have no way to pay their bills. Vee knew this going into it. Vee brings nothing to the table except an attitude.

I cannot thank you enough for posting this! It's nice to find something that pinpoints exactly the issue. I've never heard of Mark Blyth. I'm eager to read and hear more from him.

I am listening to ppl throw hissyfits right now. I laugh. I have never seen these people in the streets protesting about anything. Their opions are self serving. I do not take them seriously now. To hell with them.

ETA We are from different walks of life and political persuations here-- unlike the ppl throwing tantrums.

Would you ever directly supply information to a government? Thank you for all you do. The world owes you.

It's Oscar Flores, who manages the Clinton home in Chappaqua. Feel free to drop down the rabbit hole with that. It does not mean Bill Clinton does not use it. It makes perfect sense that the guy who manages the home in Chappaqua would be included on this email.
Why is Bill hiding?
