| 0:00.0 | My ex-husband's ex-girlfriend treated me like garbage for the majority of my son's childhood, |
| 0:05.1 | saying that I was an awful mother and that I was going to ruin my child's life forever, |
| 0:09.4 | all because of my bad parenting. |
| 0:11.2 | But today I finally got my revenge, as I prove once and for all that not only was I a better mother than her, |
| 0:16.5 | but also that her son was a mess-up from the very beginning. |
| 0:19.4 | And it honestly feels so good to get some |
| 0:21.1 | revenge on this lady, because trust me, this Karen absolutely deserves it. Here's what happened. |
| 0:25.8 | Many years ago, I was married to an absolute jerk, a jerk who cheated on me repeatedly and who was |
| 0:30.9 | verbally awful towards me. And the day things turned physical is the day I filed for divorce. |
| 0:35.9 | And worst of all, we had a son who was five when we |
| 0:38.1 | divorced. Well, cut to a year after the divorce and my ex had a girlfriend, one that stuck around longer than many of the others had. And I had strongly suspected that she had been one of his on and off of fair partners. She was divorced from a wealthy man, and she was begrudgingly polite to me, but always had to smirkingly let me know that she |
| 0:54.7 | had money and felt that she was superior to me in every way, as was her son to mine, and that she looked down on me. Now, this woman, let's call her Jamie, had a boy my son's age, and we'll call him John for the sake of the story. Jamie and my ex would occasionally ask me to babysitter son, and I always said yes, because, number one, |
| 1:11.6 | it wasn't the kid's fault that my ex was a jerk, and that his mother was a slime that slept with married men. And secondly, the kids got along, and my son would be seeing him anyway on dad's custody days. Why punish the children because their parents were jerks? And let's also call my boy Sam. Now, John wasn't a bad kid, he was just incredibly entitled. |
| 1:29.4 | He once told me that I was poor because I cleaned parents were jerks. And let's also call my boy Sam. Now, John wasn't a bad kid. He was just |
| 1:28.0 | incredibly entitled. He once told me that I was poor because I cleaned my house myself and I didn't have a maid. I then pointed out that he was poor too, as all of the money in his world came from his dad's alimony payments to his mom, but that he, John, had no money of his own, which made him even poorer than I was. |
| 1:44.5 | One conversation that John and I had at my house |
| 1:46.8 | went something like this. |
| 1:48.0 | John looked at my house. he, John, had no money of his own, which made him even poorer than I was. One conversation |
| 1:45.3 | that John and I had at my house went something like this. John looked at me and said, I went toast and jam. I said okay, but then he asked me, do you have any marmalade? After I said yes, he asked me what kind of bread I have. When I told him I had whole wheat bread, he said to me, good, then make me toast with marmalade on whole wheat bread and cut the crusts off. |
| 2:01.9 | I hope it's good marmalade. |
| 2:03.2 | And for some weird reason, that conversation |
| 2:05.3 | has always stuck with me. Many years later, long after my ex and Jamie had broken up and our |
