The Facebook post was of messages Lauren had been getting calling her racist and privileged and a few other things about her kids because Lauren posted something political (I think about Gavin Newsom but don’t quote me on that). Lauren said something about her being of Mexican decent and her youngest son is half Mexican. People got hateful with her in the messages (which she posted screenshots of) and they were saying she’s too white so people would assume she’s Mexican so she’s privileged. And basically R & her sis went on the defensive about Lauren being privileged and not knowing it etc. there was more to it but that sums it up.
I know Lauren talks about vaccines because her son has a vaccine injury, but what people don’t realize is that she’s not anti Vax she is really pushing that the gov shouldn’t make that decision for us and our kids. It’s definitely possible that had something to do with it too. But it’s interesting that R was very open about them getting their shots and then also quick to say one of the boys was having a reaction. I don’t know what came of that but it was worth mentioning.
Since Lauren is Mexican she was probably very affected by the whole Trump political stuff, and I think that was probably a factor in their not being as close, because Rachelle doesn't strike me as knowing anything about politics, or even being interested in it at all. While there are other youtube mommies who I wouldn't be surprised if it came out they were Trump supporters (Alex Congelliere) I think Rachelle is so insulated by being affluent and, frankly, extremely white, that she just never thinks about politics, which is not something other people have the luxury of doing, especially not if you're Mexican
I wonder what the timing was between Justin's stupid fake crying over the BLM protests and Lauren stepping away from the family? I can't remember when those two things happened exactly but I wonder if it was related at all. I bet Lauren would've been able to tell how insincere he was being.
Based on the accounts Lauren follows, pretty sure it’s the exact opposite the previous poster is claiming. Which is totally fine! Lauren is not the topic of this thread, and shouldn’t be discussed further.
Now can we please talk about Rash’s weird af thumbs!
You guys!!! Why do they look like effing TOES??? Ahhhh!! YIKES!!!

She’s actually a #proudconservative () and seems to have no self awareness about how all the terrible things she’s gone through and being a single mom to three boys and all the other identities she fits into relate to the political issues that pertain to those identities.
But like someone else said this is Rachelle’s thread so I’ll end that there lol.

I know I added to the conversation as well but can we please stop chatting about politics? We have ppl from all over the political spectrum on this site, but the one thing we all seem to agree on is that Rash sucks! Besides, the thread will get sidetracked real quick! Thanks ladies!!

They do look like toes! All her fingers are oddly bulbous, I can not stand her hand gestures and contrast touching everything when she talks so I keep looking and her strange toe/man/bulbous fingers
Also I just saw this, didn’t even see the original question box in her stories. I bet she’ll just ask herself the questions she wants to answer anyway. Fake.
So after Rachelle lost her marbles when we referred to Emma as "one and a half" or "nearly 2" when she was 3 days out from her 2nd birthday, she's now referring to Emma as 2.7 years old.
Wasn't Emma born in August? Which would make her 2 years and 7 months? And in Rachelle's head that equates to 2.7 years old?
Firstly, who refers to their kids age using decimal places?
Secondly, it appears Rachelle missed the math class where all the rest of us learnt that decimals are based on tenths, but a calendar year has 12 months. So what's going to happen in July? Will Emma be 2.11 years old?

Exactly, her logic makes no sense! For all intents and purposes, Emma is 2 1/2, no one really cares beyond that.
She cares because Emma is delayed. Three years is the transition to preschool special services. She is holding onto every last second, hoping Emma will meet basic milestones before her birthday. Early intervention is one thing, special prek services would likely upset rash far more.
I’m willing to admit that this makes me a terrible person, but holy shit this is one unfortunate looking baby. The genes in this family are roughhhhhhhh

I also think she deliberately posts nasty photos of Reuben though, probably subconsciously. There's definitely a theme she sticks to with him - generally he has his mouth wide open like he's about to attack someone. Contrast this to Asher where she tends to only post dopey passive photos of him sitting there like a blob. Surely there are more normal photos of Reuben? She's just choosing not to post those to make Asher look prettier.

That picture makes it look like he has three hands.

They went to counseling before they got married? How'd that work out, Rachelle?
Their premarital "counseling" was literally just meeting with their pastor and agreeing that the only thing they dislike about each other is that Rash is "too safe/boring" and Justin is "too spontaneous." I wouldn't exactly call that "counseling" lmao

Do any of these religious-based marriage counselling programs ever recommend people don't marry based on personality or immaturity? Or give them actual useful skills? I mean, they literally encourage random people to marry on the sole basis of avoiding pre-marital sex, children being born out of wedlock etc...

What’s so bad about meeting someone and dating for awhile (like more than a year or two) and truly getting to know them before jumping into marriage? I don’t understand why this is the “taboo” in young Christian couples but getting married as literal children (“old teens”) is the norm. Is it seriously just rushed to avoid premarital sex??
I bet they wouldn’t have stayed together if they didn’t rush into marriage. She said herself she turned him down countless times in the beginning.

I think a lot of them rushing into marriage probably has to do with the military. Super common to get married young because of the benefits (health insurance, life insurance if something happens, housing, moving, etc)

This is also true. US military unfortunately is still set up on traditional christian values. In most Commands, if you're not married you basically are on your own when your partner deploys.
But it's also the norm in non-military christian circles.
