I agree she shuold keep her kid's feelings in mind. My mom always told me she didn't regret her marriage because she got us girls. But she also told me before that she was really upset when she found out she was pregnant with me and considered abortion, because he had treated her so badly when she was pregnant with my sister (we are 18 mo apart). I can honestly say that didn't hurt me at all, I just felt bad for what she went through with the asshole.

People who talk like this, in my opinion, are the least sexual people I know. I worked with someone like this many, many years ago. A Rubenesque lady who wore everything one size too small and one button too many undone, who sashayed around the office like she thought she was Marilyn Monroe and talked like she was sex and sensuality incarnate. Except for that time at a work Christmas party when she was giving it all she'd got with the innuendo and her husband made a very bitter remark about how she'd pitch a fit at home if he so much as tried to cuddle her. It was a very awkward few minutes until someone else got the conversation going again in a different direction. |

And my own mom has said she would have done things differently if she had to do it over and I didn’t get butthurt and interpret that as her saying she regrets the life we had growing up. I also know plenty of people with divorced parents who are the first to say their parents should never have gotten married in the first place so yeah like I said this isn’t what stands out the most for me and ID I were her kid I’d be way more embarrassed about the rest of it, and what she’s done to her face, and ass. |

I am way more disturbed by her shallow, immature behavior than the marriage comment, personally. She seemed like someone with more mental and emotional depth at 25 than she does now and it's disturbing. I have no way of knowing, obviously, but even IRL, I feel like what we see is what we get, and I can't imagine trying to have a conversation with Madonna as my mom about the news or car insurance or my grades or the weather or who I'm dating or what TV show I'm watching, etc. It feels like it would be exhausting to be around her.
I think Madonna's kids probably have a thick skin and high threshold for embarrassment and discomfort because lord knows what else they've had to hear from her. I remember when Rocco left to go live with his dad that we were speculating it was because of Madonna oversharing and being weird around him and generally making him uncomfortable on her instagram. That said, I do know people who have been deeply hurt by their parent telling them they considered abortion, so I think it depends on the dynamic of the parent-child relationship and the shape of their shared histories. I don't think it's a one size fits all conversation for everyone.

I think Madonna was trying to hang out with him and his friends too much. I remember some of her postings during this time. They were definitely cringeworthy.
She was all up in that kid's whole social life like she was one of the bros. Then she yanked him out of school to go on tour. I believe he was exhausted by being around her. If he was a bit older she probably would have eventually been fucking any one his friends. Don't think he wasn't smart enough to potentially see that coming.
Having a somewhat normal and stable existence seems to have been good for him. And truthfully, probably ultimately good for his relationship with her.
Lourdes has her dad and his family, and that's probably been a good balance for her growing up too. It's those younger kids I feel for. They're dealing with The Madonna Show 24/7.

waterslide MsDark it wasn't just the Instagram stuff when Rocco took a break from her that was cringeworthy but also her supposedly threatening to go off the rails by supposedly being drunk at her various shows and the weird monologues etc. I felt back then that this was all fake fuckery and manipulation of a "Mommy can't cope without you!" kind. And sure enough, as soon as Rocco started speaking to her again it all stopped as suddenly as it started.

I'm pretty sure they both regret being married to you too, Madge.
