Maybe the trip was gifted to her. Not judging on this one. Knowing how much my boys learned from their dad with sports, this really breaks my heart. For me it is not about the trip, it is the post and sharing information about how her child, who has no say in what is shared, had a meltdown and rightfully so all to get the feels and make money. Yep, I always wonder how (or maybe if) all the oversharing affects these kids relationships with their peers? It's tough enough being a kid, tougher during this pandemic and extremely tough to be the kid that lost a parent. Why wouldn't you stop and think for a minute about what the longer term affects on your children are going to be? I get it, money. But money for damn sure isn't everything. There are way more things in life that matter more than the almighty dollar bill. |

Lizzy’s answer to healing her children’s grief seems to be too many Christmas gifts, $20 tucked into pockets and trips. Material things & money will never fill the void of losing their father. She also needs to get off her damn phone and delete her IG. Her children need a mother that isn’t preoccupied with posting their lives on social media. |

She is always so clearly preoccupied with her appearance in the videos it drives me bonkers. She is so damn vain, I think that is why she is such a maskhole, she clearly doesn’t like the way she looks in a mask. I also hate that she described her son’s anger and grief as having a fit. That is so clearly not what was happening. |

Her children need a mother that isn’t preoccupied with posting their lives on social media. She seems addicted. She also seems to have no concept of her children as individual human beings with rights to privacy. She treats them like accessories to her own life. |

A Kardashian/Jenner was trending on Twitter this morning because she's asking her fans to donate to a GFM for her stylist who needs surgery for $60k. She, personally, makes way over that in ONE DAY, but sure, ask your fans to donate. SMH  They were watching the Dodgers when he passed away... Bellinger had just hit that homerun game 1 of the world series. They were making plans to take Myles to his first game together. How traumatic for those kids. Likely the other kids were home also. So sad for them to have to witness that whole situation (calling 911, etc). |

She and her son flew out to a baseball game. This is why I am leery of giving to some people when they live a more upscale lifestyle than I do. This is precisely why I don’t get involved in online donations to random people I don’t know. |

The money thing seems to me to be something between Lizzy and her donors - people just wanted to do anything they could to help her in her time of need.
It always looked as if she and Collin had a very precious and devoted relationship going right back to their teen years.
I can’t start to imagine how she is coping - taking it day by day and doing whatever it takes to make each day bearable, I imagine.

I have 3 boys and they are always my primary concern. |

How traumatic for those kids. Likely the other kids were home also. So sad for them to have to witness that whole situation (calling 911, etc). She's also mentioned that the kids stayed home and were expecting her to return home with Collin from ER but that she then had to walk in alone and announce he had passed. I'm guessing the kids may have continued watching the game so I can imagine the amount of internalised guilt they - including Myles - are dealing with and how going to a Dodgers game now is triggering. |

Yes! When you go through stages of trauma, many things can be triggers. For my after the DUI it was sirens and car crash scenes, even IRL. I was playing mini golf with dh and a fire truck and ambulance hit their lights and sirens right near us and I went into shock then had flash backs then broke down ugly crying. It will be 22 years this coming Thanksgiving and seeing car crashes still haunts me. I still have vivid nightmares. And that was with years of therapy and just healing myself. And I still can't watch car crashes on TV. |

Hugs @sunnycamom I feel this.
The strange paradox of Collin's message and his wife's behavior is constantly interesting to me. It's like a puzzle I can't solve and I keep looking and clicking. Ironic it's what has brought me to checking Instagram.
The oldest teen might not have a phone or be online, but you know her classmates are. If she's like most kids her age they will post or surf from a friend's phone when "grounded" from hers. These soul bearing posts won't be secret from the Kartchner kids for very long.

@sunnycamom thank you for sharing your experience. My friend who was in a car accident experiences similar things. The strange paradox of Collin's message and his wife's behavior is constantly interesting to me. It's like a puzzle I can't solve and I keep looking and clicking. I agree, if there is an afterlife and if her husband is "looking down" (or maybe "up" depending on where he "went") I don't think he'd be very happy with her current behavior if he truly believed in his mission but we will never know for sure. |

Did someone finally take her phone? She hasn't posted since and no stories.

It is all around us, but we can't see because there is a veil. When you die, that veil is lifted. That's the LDS belief.  |

Did she say on her Instagram stories the other day she doesn't like her son's name? They flip through so fast that I don't always catch everything.

Yes, I had to scroll back three times to make sure I read it right. This was after a long post she made about telling Myles about how daddy picked his name before they left the hospital. |

He's going to find out some day that she said that, if he hasn't heard her say it to other people already. I hope some of this GFM money pays for the kids' therapists...

Did anyone see where she got the cake for her daughter when she had her first kiss and posted a million stories about it?! I would have died. Pretty sure my daughter would too if I were to do that. Can’t she keep things private?

No one in my family knows when I had my first kiss or who it was with. A cake and public celebration?? How mortifying!

Can’t she keep things private? My daughter would literally disown me if I posted something personal like that about her. She would be so pissed I'd need therapy. I'm pretty sure I wouldn't even think about sharing something so personal in the first place so there is that... |

One of my favorite people in college had a "Had my period for half my life cake." It was hysterical. SHE was the one who made her cake and shared it. I would have died as a preteen if my mom would have announced it. |

Good God, I just saw Dear Lizzy's stories (I don't know why I still follow, I can't help myself) and she has a video of her clearly un seatbelted daughter sticking her head out the car window while going at a fairly good clip. She is in the front seat leaving me to wonder who the hell is filming and who is driving?
