“People do not like when you set boundaries – especially the ones who benefitted from you having none.” – Unknown

My Interpretation: Lorraine plays innocent. But she knows exactly what she is doing. & when this goes to court? She better hope neutrality still counts as parenting.

🧬 Cade’s Mother. Not Mine. Never Was.

When I first met her, she loved me.
We drank together.
Had girls’ nights.
She said I was a hoot.

Then Cade & I split during one of the hardest seasons of my life –
my mother dying.
& she did not skip a beat.

We got back together?
She acted like nothing happened.

I showed up for her surgeries.
I was there when her boyfriend beat her.
When her mother died.

She never showed up for me.

👶🏻 Pregnancy Changed Everything

The moment I got pregnant with Rowan, it all changed.

Suddenly it was a competition.
Between her & Marlene.
Between control & actual care.

She offered help with the baby shower-then created chaos over who was really in charge.

She posted photos of my newborn before I even held him.
She came to my house right after I got home from the hospital –
& then just… sat there.

I was bleeding.
In pain.
Exhausted.
& she watched me struggle while she slept on the couch next to me.

📸 The Photos. The Photographer. The Fuckery.

She helped pay for a newborn photographer –
as a gift.

Then demanded access to the photos
& threatened a refund
because I would not give her access to the copies prior to me going through them myself.

She did not pay for them out of love.
She paid for leverage.

🚨 The Sex Offender She Defended

She sent photos of my son –
my newborn son –
to a registered sex offender she was dating.

Without my consent.

& when I said absolutely not,
she told people I was overreacting.
Told him I was just mad
because I was not bonding with my baby.

She called my trauma “drama.”
She made my boundaries look like punishment.

💣 The Real Lorraine

She says she “does not like drama.”
That she “just wants peace.”
But what she really wants
is compliance.

She wants me quiet.
Grateful.
Cooperative.

She was the one who said it first about her most recent boyfriend –  
“K can’t find anything wrong with him.”
Like that was supposed to shut me up.
Like that was her defense
For sending photos of my child to multiple registered sex offenders.

Then Cade doubled down.
Said, “It’s just a joke.”
Like my fear was funny.
Like my boundaries were overkill.

But it was not a joke.
But it is a warning.
Because this woman will back her son to the gates of hell
if it means saving face.

Because this woman will back her son
Even if it means protecting someone who hurts children.

She will always choose the lie
That keeps her image intact
Over the truth that keeps a child safe.

📂 The One Who Knows I Know

Still…
I think she knows.

Knows I am smarter.
Knows I have got the texts. The screenshots. The patterns.
Knows I have documented it all.

& maybe –
just maybe –
that is why she has not come for me yet.

Because I do not bluff.
& if this goes to court?
I am not walking in blind.
