Since Rosie is a slobby, disgusting, uncouth, loudmouthed sow in public, it’s hard to imagine her being even worse in private
I am not surprised at all. Her public mask has slipped enough times to know who she is “at home.” Poor kids.
It seems like this girl is fairly normal in that being ignored by her “mother” hurt her and being adopted and lied to about the circumstances destroyed her trust.
It’s not unusual in dysfunctional families for one kid to be the “bad one”. Being sent away for such a long period of time will have consequences that the parent may not anticipate.
She is not vindictive or viscous in this article even if she does mention some typical teen criticisms. I think she comes off as genuine and kind of sweet. She was abandoned by one family, shoved into another with revolving caretakers, and she’s working through it.
Her goals are realistic, she loves her siblings, and she’s very gentle in her criticism when you think about it.
At that age, I would have been furious at being twice abandoned and having my adoptive mother lie about me to the press. Anxiety and depression seem situational in this circumstance - not evidence of mental illness.
Wait. Rosie’s public persona was the bubbly and engaging one? The mind boggles.
This has all the potential to be dissolving into Mommie Dearest II ..The Rainbow Years.
I dislike Rosey, but as the mom of an adopted son with emotional problems, I wouldn’t take everything said here as the complete truth. She could be exaggerating or cherry picking the bad stuff.
For example, she complains about no cooking, but most of us learned to cook by age 12. So what was stopping her from reading and following a cookbook?
Adopted children often have “rejection” issues. This girl not only was “rejected” by her birth parents, but Rosie divorced a woman who was probably the emotional mom for the young girl.
So instead of seeing these things as “shit happens”, they see them as more rejection, “I am bad”...but one way to cope with “I am bad” is to project the emotion on a scapegoat. In this case, Rosie.
Looks like Trump was right when responding to Megan Kelly’s question in the first debate. Interesting how the “truth will set yo free”.
