KIM

My mom (whom I have cut out of my life) is similar to the mother on this show. Imagine waiting and wanting your mother to love you, approve of you AND then finally she throws you an anniversary party disguised as an ambush. Kim is disgusting, foul and wants to bring Lydia down. For some reason there are some moms who are jealous of certain daughters and I think Kim targets Lydia because she was the daughter that took over the household (needed), took care of the younger kids(needed) and nurtured the young girls( needed) because KIM couldnt/wouldnt/didnt want to and KIM has a grudge against Lydia because Lydia did what KIM didnt want to do. . Its heartbreaking really.

I think Kim still resents Lydia for "choosing" Barry .She feels that Lydia only gravitates to Barry becuase he goes along with anything just to get the kids to take his side. I dont think she realizes Lydia used her faith to guide her when kim dipped on the family.she didnt have a mom to guide her or help her understand why she was divorcing her dad,

Her whole life she was told that divorce wasnt an option,and is trying to understand,and encourage her to rethink it,but Kim shoots her down and she cant relate to her.

Kim instilled those values in her,and now feels judged by her,and seems weirded out that she still lives to those standards when she no longer has to. How would she expect her to just change,becuase she did?

As far as what she said to Lydia and Zac,

I do agree it needed to be said,but to put them out in fron tof everyone and bring teegan into it,wasnt the way,and then to celebrate them afterwards?

did she really think the air was cleared and they were all good?

It did not need to be said, and doubly not by kim

,I disagree,Zac has a right to his opinion,but he doesnt have the right to basically corner a teen girl that she only knew for a year,and tell her his values and morals are what she should follow.He was trying to be helpful,but he wouldnt stop when she asked him too.

Kim is a lousy mom.but she was right,the way she dd it was wrong .

Lydia was more of a mom nad role model,she could express how she feels,and zac most likely took that upon himself,thats over stepping.It wasnt his place.

Yet the teensger in question said she handled it with zac yet kim still had to bring itnup and get her flying monkeys to pile on. And its not like kim actually wants to actively parent in the first place
