Listening to CM I was constantly reminded of this woman, the inability to answer a straight question; the minimisation; the belief that being biologically related made up for everything and the exaggeration from doing the bare minimum (e.g buying them treat) as the biggest sacrifice they should be praised for.
I totally agree with your entire post, but this last paragraph brought to mind CM's dramatic claim in the witness box that: "I would throw myself in front of a bus for my child."
Constance Marten says her 'influential' family supported social services
It struck me at the time as being an utterly ridiculous thing to say. Needing to throw yourself in front of a bus for your child is a highly unlikely thing to happen to anyone for a start, and IMHO it shows an alarming level of self interest and cognitive dissonance that such a self sacrificing statement was made by someone who has previously:
Left hospital against medical advice while pregnant and injured;
Refused to take a Covid test in order to be re-united with her newborn;
Been noted by a family court judge to have failed to provide even minimum safe living arrangements for her children (supported by Cafcass and SS reports - because that's how family court works);
Had those children removed from her care due to not complying with minimum care requirements and then even failed them by not turning up for regular contact, leading to the children being put up for adoption.
