[JackSmith-wt]

What helped me the most with raising my children was the book ‘Raising Warriors: Preparing Your Children For a Godly Life’. It is honestly a game changer

[bos]

Good grief, that is so creepy, give him some privacy woman.

[AprilScott-kefn]

That MOTHER is not right in the head. She's overly obsessed with her son. That's a totally creepy relationship

[rachelpost]

Watching a 13 year old on camera in his room? Where's his privacy? That's messed up.

[joonjiguk]

The cameras in his bedroom literally made me shiver. He’s not a toddler. He’s a teenager who doesn’t get a single second of privacy in one of the most crucial stages of life. You can see by her behavior that she won’t think it’s wrong even when he’s 18. Borderline abusive.

[paleofemme]

Make him happy? You’re making him your prisoner 😢

[eurokay]

That's not love. That's control, power. She will be a nightmare for any partner he chooses.

[judybareitan]

She is allowing her child to have very unhealthy habits. Sitting and gaming all day is not healthy. He is way too heavy for a child. She is leading him to early heart disease but that doesn't seem to concern this mother.

[victoria]

My 3-year-old has more freedom than he does. No child needs two bedrooms.

[nadogrl]

Dr. Phil really nailed her narcissism.

[venomousvixen]

Having cameras in your kids room is way too much. A baby, a toddler, yes. A teenager? No way.

[h.b]

He looks like he’s disabled, holding hands with his parents walking down the street, but he’s not. This is so weird. He needs privacy and she has cameras in his room!

[noahbarrett]

She’s a very dramatic & possessive mother. I feel sorry for the child.

[javaskull]

A parent’s role should be to prepare their kids for successful independent adulthood.

[Boyzee]

This is ABUSE. She needs counselling and an intervention

[lunarbeauty]

I love my kids but i don't spy on them in their room. So disturbing.

[pnwlady]

She doesn’t want him to succeed in the real world, because then he might leave her. This handicapped life ensures his continued dependence.

[tammywebb]

I'm glad she's not my mother. She takes infantilization and coddling to a whole new level

[elyhenu]

That’s how my sister in law is with her son - now the kid is a teenager who has no friends, zero social skills, and when he does talk he speaks so low you can hardly hear him. He’s going to struggle when he graduates and has to face the real world. It’s sad.

[jonathansallade]

If I didn't see this with my own eyes, I wouldn't believe it. This woman's fear is ruining this kid's life.
