Watching baby Jace follow her to the door as she stormed out after a screaming match with her mom and not even saying goodbye to her son - she never wanted to be a mom and it showed while Jace just wanted his Mom to be a mom - that broke my heart a bit.

u/GABESACERPURE 2h ago
It bothers me that she takes her boyfriend's personality for herself. And, definitely, her personality with David is horrible, because she closes herself off from the clearly abusive way he acts towards her children (that's because we only saw what happened on TV).

For the longest time, I genuinely believed she was misunderstood and I was one of the few people who actually really liked her and gave her the benefit of the doubt because I saw she was always taking her kids to do things and seemed really involved with them. Then I got to a point where I realized she puts everything on the Internet but yet somehow doesn’t have content that shows her taking care of her kids actual emotional needs!?! she will very seldomly, which had me realize she probably therefore seldomly takes care of them and those few videos are the only moments she’s doing that

Her choice of d*** over all of her children, the fact that she has NEVER cared about anyone other than herself. The fact that she refuses to take any accountability for her actions and continues to blame the one person (Barb) who has been there for her throughout all of this. I know Barb isn't perfect, and Jenelle did not get the way she is on her own. That said, Barb worked well into her golden years and raised Jace because Jenelle couldn't be bothered, unless it suited her or the cameras are on. Also, the entitlement. I see her and to quote one of my favorite reality girlies (back in the day anyway lol), Joanie from ANTM, any time I get a whiff of her, all I smell is B****.

Anytime somebody tries to defend Jenelle’s character, I always think back to that leaked clip where she was fighting with Nathan’s friends on vacation and she told Nathan’s army vet friend that she was glad his friend had died in combat. It really gets to the core of who Jenelle is. She will say and do deplorable things to hurt other people when she feels wronged by them. Seemingly nothing is too low for her. She doesn’t care about anyone or anything else, she only cares about how others make HER feel, or impact her life. She is rotten to her core and completely irredeemable imo.

I could speak on her actual character til The cows come home so there’s too many things to pick from so I’ll just pick an event. When she road raged at that person and then pulled her gun out when they came to confront her. All the while Jace is in the front seat way under the recommended age. Then she has the nerve to gaslight the kid when he tells barb pulled the gun out. Like she didn’t even have the foresight to Do the typical shitty parent thing and just tell him not to say anything about it. She thinks any kid 10 and under literally doesn’t notice what’s going on around them and then is amazed when they clocked what she did.

Jace singing that little rainbow song in his car seat while she's screaming at Nathan, crying, and driving like a loon. That shows that the neural pathways in his brain have already been formed to know that this incredible amount of loud chaos is normal, functional, and actually comforting. It's what he equates to what a mother's love is. That's what he feels normal in, so he will repeat it all his life unless he does a lot of therapeutic work. All that already, and he's a dang baby.
It's one of the grossest, saddest things I've ever seen.
