Laura’s recent post

Anyone else see Laura’s recent post about Alfie sleeping 13 hours and worry that he might have gotten into something of Stephen’s? That’s all I can think about.

Time out here for a minute.

The mental load of an autistic child vs a neurotypical child is much different. Alfie could very well be exhausted. As a parent of an autistic child, his energy usage is at least 5x of any of his siblings. His brain could also be in overdrive, and sleep is how he recuperates.

Now I don’t like Skeevy. That doesn’t mean this is his fault. Kids go through things, just like all of us adults do.

I absolutely agree 100%. I truly agree with everything you said, and agree that I sound completely off base. I hope I am. It just was a thought and worry. I should have left it as a thought

Absolutely. All of my kids could sleep this long if they could. Two of them with ADHD. This is also nothing new, there have been earlier videos where Laura mentioned that A. went to sleep super earlier and slept very long stretches. It’s kids. Especially during growth spurts mine eat and sleep like nobody’s business.

Oh shit!! No, but god I hope not. How she can let him have those kids unsupervised is BEYOND ME.

u/Momma2boys83 5d ago

I would only have supervised visitation. I don’t know the nurse in me thought that right away. He feels tired, no fever, isn’t flushed, and isn’t congested. It just worries me so much. I wish I had an idea of where they lived for a welfare check

Topanga canyon is where Skeevy lives, I only know that because he emailed a bunch of us his address. 😂 But yeah, I’m not a nurse, just a mom and I’m worried for both those sweet littles every time they go to his house. It’s not like Laura doesn’t have the power and resources to demand drug screening from him on the regular. Why she puts up with his shit is beyond me.

You're spot on the money. It always feels like she is trying to placate him. Does her family not see the danger he poses? Having watched Mama Clery on the Podcast, I can't see her not saying something to her Laura into taking measures to protect the kids.

I trust Skeevy so little, I could actually see him doping A up to quieten him during an episode.

Oh, I'm sure family members have tried talking to her, but she probably plugs her ears because she doesn't want to listen

u/GelflingMama 5d ago

I could absolutely see that too!! They used to call it “slipping the kid a Mickey” and I I can’t remember exactly what the Mickey was, I think it was whiskey or something, but people used to legit brag about drugging their kids to calm them down.

u/InfiniteAbyss07 5d ago

Oh come on snarkers, don't yah know? According to Laura, today she has the best ex husband!! Kids put in jeopardizing situations be damned!! (My eyes hurt from rolling them so hard) 🙄🤦‍♀️

u/Ready_Handle5682 4d ago

He’s admitted to relapsing, sounds like he’s still using, says he’s not in recovery anymore, and romanticizes drug use as an artistic tool. I’d be very concerned if I was Laura. Hope the little guy is okay. Trying to remember how long my kids would sleep at that age, and I think it was about 9, 10 hours.

u/bluepony_0628 5d ago

I saw the video about him sleeping and wanting to stay home but I didn’t hear her talking about him getting into something? Did I miss it?

u/AstronautFickle4118 4d ago

Nahhhhhh. Of course anything is possible, but I have kids the exact same ages as Laura’s and sometimes they just need to have a big sleep. Sometimes they have a big sleep right before they get sick before other symptoms show up, sometimes it’s a growth spurt, sometimes theyre just tired. Anything is possible but this isn’t a red flag.

WHAT

u/jellyfishmelodica 5d ago

It's freaking crazy. It's not like Stephen is confirming or denying if something is missing? Or he just doesn't know what he has or where he keeps it? What the

She has the best ex husband, ever! He came over to take A to school because P was still asleep. And A ended up staying home.

u/Donkeyscot2013 5d ago

He was fucking high in that video! So disturbing! They are both parasites at this point, it’s disgusting.

u/Cindi_Lou_Who2 4d ago

Thank God A stayed home because I believe he would’ve driven him to school high!

u/DaughterofKingsize 4d ago

My kid could sometimes sleep 12/13 hour stretches if we've had a busy couple of days or of we've done something new.

He's still so little. Add on being neurodiverse, and his sleeping pattern will vary wildly from week to week. I do think it's important to recognise and point out the risks involved with letting Steven have unsupported access, but being extra sleepy for no obvious reason in and of itself is not a red flag.

u/jellyfishmelodica 4d ago

But the husband calls himself a sociopath and a drug addict in the middle of what is known as active addiction so why do you think that giving his kids a little too much Melatonin is a bridge too far?

2

u/DaughterofKingsize 4d ago

I didn't say it was impossible, I didn't even infer it was unlikely and stated being aware of such dangers is important, but it's also equally important to be aware that kids don't always have a solid sleep schedule, especially when you throw neurodivergence into the mix, and "what ifs" in my experience often don't do anyone any good

u/jellyfishmelodica 3d ago

I think Laura has been gaslit by him for a long time and assuming that he's going to be ethical or take proper care of the kids is a mistake. I think vigilant 'what ifs' might help protect the kids from Stephen....

u/Neat_Toe_9474 5d ago

The cycle continues. Rebrand Hilton as the best co/parent next minute crying to anyone who will listen about the miserable human he was during their marriage.

What bothers me is the Franke-esk content they are both putting out with their kids and about their kids lately.

Poor A … not well and she still has to post and put him on the internet so the world can hear him speak/communicate.

u/Certain-Collar-729 4d ago

It isn’t your first thought to put a camera for the world to see your kid is under the weather making you the best mommy blogger ever!?

u/Clean_Lettuce9321 5d ago

Four posts because Alfie slept 12 hours?

u/Whythecandy 4d ago

This is a bit much. I’m no fan of either but it’s you guys are REACHING. Love to all 💕

u/Momma2boys83 4d ago

I agree I sound like I am reaching. In my state we have seen SO many cases lately where this has happened so it’s always in my mind. Not that it is right. I said in another comment it was a thought I had that should have left as a thought. I was going to delete the post, but I would like people to see it’s ok to admit you said something wrong.

u/jellyfishmelodica 4d ago

He is just the kind of absent tool who would dose his kids with melatonin and then say it's natural and he didn't know it was wrong or maybe perhaps he gave the child a little too much, or something.

5

u/Neat_Toe_9474 4d ago

Yes … I am inclined to think Alfie was either just needing a big sleep or was under the weather. As below, what concerns me is that he has the phone shoved in his face and made to demonstrate his scripted speech achievements so he can just have the day off and stay home to rest with his mumma.

u/jellyfishmelodica 4d ago

Do you have any idea how many parents does their kids with melatonin?

2

u/jellyfishmelodica 4d ago

Do you know how easy it would be to put melatonin in somebody's ice cream for example?

u/InfiniteAbyss07 4d ago

While I respect all opinions...with everything we have seen from Shilton and Laura in regards to their parenting, I don't think it would be too far of a stretch to say A got into something he shouldn't have while at Shilton's. Did he? Maybe and probably not; however, I wouldn't take it off the table. That's just me. A has ran out of the house multiple times while under Shilton's watch. A has locked Shilton out of house before, thrown his car keys in the pool, injured himself while at Shilton's and Laura's. Look parenting is hard and normally I hate to judge; however, these two and their actions have left me absolutely scared for those babies. My heart breaks.

u/Careless-Awareness-4 1d ago

I don't know Laura, maybe don't send your children over to a drug addict's house? If they do get into something and die or get sick it's squarely on you at this point.

He's autistic my autistic son will do 12+hours regularly. They get very overwhelmed and are constantly burning energy. Sleeping is a way to hide from the stress aswell as recuperate their energy.
