Is Alex pregnant again?

 

[often puzzled]

Is Alex pregnant again?

Fortunately, there's no rumor of that. The doctor supposedly inserted an IUD after Ari was born, and that's very unlikely to fail. She also doesn't want to come off her twerk juice again. Her belly looks more bloated these days, but she's been bloated in general since giving birth, and her current posture in her wheelchair makes her SMA belly more pronounced.

She added some stuff to Instagram stories:



Lookin' like Gollum:



This is the charge.org petition again:



Grid post featuring Ari, blah blah blah single disabled mother:

Spoiler: caption and comments

She apparently briefly popped up on Reddit on the Dad Challenge Podcast sub to defend herself but quickly deleted and disappeared after getting a very poor reception. Truly stupid move on her part.

 

[My cravat doesn't flutter]

@GenociderSyo struck gold with Megan DeJarnett. Megan is everything Alex wants people to think she is. She has a loving husband and kids. She is a successful public speaker who gets to give lectures on disability/SMA. She's a published author. She's living proof that people don't hate Alex for her disability. They hate her for her personality.

Seriously, Megan even has the classic "high school sweethearts turned happy family" story.



eta: dear God I never want to see Alex pregnant again.
Pregnant Alex reminds me of this scene from Velma:

Spoiler: potentially NSFW

It's hilarious- even the people in the sub that hate DC are shitting all over her.

"Never imagined I be a single mom at 30"

Like why does she make it sound like she's a teen mom? If I ever was to be a single mom I would rather do it at 30+ due to way more life experience.

Yeah I know, she's disabled, but 30 SHOULD be a age where you're starting to get and have shit on lock. You should be more comfortable w yourself and have more to put up against people tryna steer you astray.

Again, I know it's Alex we're talking about but come on. If it were broken dreams of a happy home then why THE FUCK did you let a ONS knock you up? You put yourself in this shit situation and be happy you're not fucking 19 w a baby.

God, she really is disabled more ways than she think.

 

[The Judean People's Front]

No way she counts as a "single Mom" by a long stretch. Beyond all the help she gets from whoever her current Craigslist hire is, I don't believe she and Noah are actually broken up. I've said it before and I'll say it again: cluster B romances don't end cleanly or permanently in the best of cases. He's probably just not "currently" (as in, this week) tossing it in her.

Speaking of, looks like Jackie might be around again.

She posted a bunch of pictures of Ari, who she totally doesn't depend on for content, haters.

Spoiler: Ari on stories

Followed by the curious but very interesting indeed set of stories:







Then a grid post with a drinkie, because hey, it's Alex, did you think we were going to have a sober post?

Caption and comments (currently sanitized):



She's not in NOLA; she's just in a NOLA-themed establishment.

Then she followed up with more Ari. It's in one of those videos that you see hands that I think are Jackie's.

Spoiler: Ari on stories 2

Still from video. The person was patting the shallow water with both hands, causing it to make tiny splashes. Ari loved it and thought it was hilarious. Those look like Jackie's hands to me, and we've seen her in slides like the ones lying next to the pool.

So it looks like DCFS is very much not out of the picture, and it also looks like she's once again had to summon her mom to bail her out.

NOAH WATCH: still AWOL, and Alex is still banging the single mom drum (though that's possibly/probably to inspire pity).

That sounds like an Ages and Stages Questionnaire (ASQ3), referring to the white/gray/black areas, but that screener has 5 sections, not 3. So either it's something different or Ari isn't in the white on two of the sections and she's just not telling us. She didn't say what the other two passing sections were so that's interesting too.

The ASQ sections: Communication, Fine Motor, Gross Motor, Problem Solving and Personal-Social.

Gonna go see if I can figure out what screening she did if it's not the ASQ. That's the most common so I'm leaning towards she's full of shit.

Edit: all the googles are pointing to the ASQ3. I use it in my job, and the Early Learning Coalitions and another agency called Help Me Grow FL also use it. I feel like this is an example of Alex not telling all the details/telling only what she wants everyone to hear.

“I totally CHOSE to enroll in parenting classes and therapy! I did. Me. It was MY choice. I was not at all compelled to participate as a requirement for retaining custody of my child.”

“I totally CHOSE to enroll in parenting classes and therapy! I did. Me. It was MY choice. I was not at all compelled to participate as a requirement for retaining custody of my child.”

The cope and seethe was litterly dripping off of her parenting class post.

 

[Flourishing Pinecone ❧]

The arrogance of it taking her a year to accept some help from the department whose aim is to help parents be better parents. Because she knows best!

 

[The Judean People's Front]

Alex: "the calls to DCFS were so dumb! We don't need Family Services to intervene here, we are fine, and they have closed our case."

Also Alex: "I am actively utilizing DCFS services, including a therapist and parenting classes."

Either the calls were pointless OR you've found the services provided helpful. You can't actively use DCFS services (yes, Alex, the therapy and classes are the services part of DCFS) and say that DCFS came out, awarded you a Parenting Medal and closed your case.

I think it’s mandatory at the moment for her.

People usually do take parenting classes BEFORE they have a child that is almost walking but whatever I guess.

She’s the worst.

I wonder what they teach her?

I thought those classes were how to discipline (without yelling or hitting), what a child needs to eat to thrive and grow, the importance of setting schedules, reading, etc.

How to do any of this with a young toddler while 100% disabled probably is not part of the normal curriculum. I don’t know though.

“I totally CHOSE to enroll in parenting classes and therapy! I did. Me. It was MY choice. I was not at all compelled to participate as a requirement for retaining custody of my child.”

Sorry, I think she is garbage too, but this is literally what people in this thread were wanting her to do.

It's a baby in a house with a profoundly disabled mother and an addict father. DCFS should be involved to help support them to care for Ari. But she wants to view it as boo hoo the system is against me.

A lot of people assume the goal is to take children away, but it's actually to keep families together. The system absolutely has its problems though. Noah and Alex need all of the resources they can get, hopefully they aren't rejecting help out of pride

I wish people would understand this! Most cases they’d like to keep families together, even if children are temporarily removed they usually have reunification as the end goal. They have so many resources and programs available to help support parents.

Jesus, forget gators. That iguana Could eat Ari.

One of the saddest things about the child services situation is that theoretically they're there to give resources and help. They generally only remove the kid in dire situations - think Trainspotting shit - but the rest of the time it's supposed to be about giving assistance and resources. Or maybe I'm totally off as I've had more experience with Adult Protective Services and obviously that works slightly differently, but my understanding is that at their core these programs are both about keeping families together and people in their homes.

Admitting she needs more help with Ari might actually get her some state assistance or a hookup to an NPO that can help or something. I mean, currently it seems they have it covered, but if her goal is to not live with The Smiths forever as she's said, then maybe accept some help? Put your pride aside for your child's sake?

As for Noah, I could see him being sober since The Incident happened. His parents seem like the non-bullshitting type and if there's a police report for him assaulting his Dad, then they aren't averse to trying to teaching their kid hard lessons (good! Although he's a fucking adult and Father a now and shouldn't need his mommy to keep him in line). I'm sure sobriety, childcare, and no BPD manipulation shit is part of their agreement for him living there with Alex (who I suspect has less rules, as they take her as part of the package for having their grandchild safely housed with them).

Edit to wish you beautiful Kiwifolk a happy 100 pages! Hopefully by page 200 Ari has driven Alex into a wall at least once.

Isn't there parenting classes or nurses that can help if you struggle in the US

I just realised we have never heard mention of any mother's groups or anything like that. Is that a thing in the US? I know they moved, but when you have your well baby checks I assume the Nurse could help link you with a local group.

There's more, but I couldn't keep going.

 

[blue gopher snakes]

Sorry, I think she is garbage too, but this is literally what people in this thread were wanting her to do.

Look unless she has undergone a radical personality transformation, she would never humble herself to take the advice of those she considers beneath her. She would never objectively assess her situation and decide that it was in the best interests of herself and her daughter to avail herself of DCFS programs. I’m not about to start getting all optimistic that she’s finally matured and made choices for the betterment of her family in between petulant bikini selfies in local bars.

 

[The Judean People's Front]

There's more, but I couldn't keep going.

I don't begrudge her taking classes through DCFS or getting therapy from them; you're correct, I did say she should consider it and if she willingly decides to pursue therapy and classes to be a better parent, then cool. Sincerely, good for her.

But first, as it's been noted, I truly doubt that she "accepted help" in a gracious way and rather, has been ordered to do so. Second, even if she is doing this of her own volition, with her own internal motivation, she's also been very vocal about not needing the very services that she is now "accepting." If she thinks she could use the information in a parenting class or that a DCFS therapist could help her be a better parent then the calls to DCFS did what was intended and Alex might try a little humility. Hah.

I'm gonna take the talk of "what could she even learn at this point?" to another level. What could she actually learn to do? Can't change diapers, can't bathe, can't help handle the kid. Can't cook, can't clean, can't do anything but squawk at others to do shit. She literally can't parent at this point of Ari's life.

The parenting classes are purely theoretical. Like if she took a mountain climbing class.

 

[CatSuga-Ogrish]

I bet she gets Section 8.

 

[Breadbear]

I bet she gets Section 8.

She undoubtedly could get it, but I have a hard time believing that her luxury high-rise is compatible.

 

[no I will not]

In my state. in order to get certain tax breaks, luxury buildings can devote a certain amount of apartments to section 8 type housing, so it may be possible in Florida. It's a cool program in my state because the buildings I worked with gave the apartments to retired ladies with limited incomes and they took care of their apartments and made good use of the building resources. I doubt this describes Alex.
