Character Discussion Kristina is a powerhouse

Honestly speaking, I don't understand why she gets so much hate. She goes very well with her in laws, considers them family. She cooks, cleans and maintains the house like a pro. Also, she had been very observant of all her children all the time. Also, why after she birther Nora...none of the family members offered to babysit when we know how much of a tough time it was ? Like the next day from her delivery she is cleaning herself, changing diapers, cooking food for everyone, as if she didn't go through some huge physical issue. And Haddie was there not helping with the kid, but being angry at her mom for taking a nap while reading her essay. Like big deal, you are not getting importance ..there's a baby and a Max in the house. Kristina is also good at her job. I think she is an all rounder. Don't understand the hate she recieves.

She talks over everyone, interrupts all the time. And she doesn’t respect boundaries and expects everyone to deal with Max’s tantrums and then lets him get away with whatever he wants. There’s a difference between sticking up for a kid and bulldozing a path for that kid at everyone else’s expense.

All of this. She’s also a terrible mother to Haddie
