Lori Alexander 79: False Female Bible Teachers Elevate Jesus’ Words over the Apostle Paul’s

He is. Alyssa said so.

I had the same feeling. She hasn't been sympathetic at all. Before she met any bio mom, she was praying for a unwanted pregnancy to happen, so she could have a baby. Sorry???? I was infuriated. It is not "I want a baby, someone makes me a baby". It' s like she didn't care about the suffering of a woman who cannot afford/care for her own baby. Alyssa already had Gideon, but didn't seem to understand that bio moms who give their babies suffer! 

I'm relieved the baby is not with them. Lori is not only violent and racist, but also is losing her mind. What a babysitter! And Alyssa looks lovely but trained Gideon since day 1. They have money but they are not exactly a great family. 

 

Oh I didn’t realize she had explicitly said so. I mean she had seemed to be implying it. 
 

Alyssa parenting is Alyssa's parenting. She thriving for perfection in everything. That happens often with eating disorders

I can’t explain why, really, but I also had my doubts that this adoption would happen.  

Same here. As a human, my heart breaks for them...and anyone in their situation.  But as an adoptee myself, I know A LOT about adoption and have read lots of books and after learning of my birth mother and what she experienced, I have been witness to some of the negative consequences (especially for some birth mothers) related to adoption.  Again, I'll say adoption is a wonderful, wonderful thing. But  it is also very complicated.  

I had concerns from very early on how neat and tied up with a bow Alyssa was making this.  Her beautifully curated photos, etc.. and even calling  a woman experiencing an unplanned or difficult pregnancy "the sweet birth mama" didn't sit right with me. It felt somehow condescending.  Another concern was the long term possibility of the child always being labeled as "the adopted one" because of how public it all was. 

Listen, I take no pleasure in this situation. I am sad for them, but hope there are some lessons learned. These are real people (the baby and the mother) just as Jon and Alyssa are real. This isn't some modern  internet/social media fairy tale.   Tragic all the way around.

Well I hate myself clearly and just watched Alyssa’s Instagram story which just made my feelings about this worse. Go watch guys I want others thoughts. 

She knew, and stared many times she was fully aware this could fall though. And yet made every plan possible as if it wasn’t going to. 

 

I really don’t feel bad for them honestly. Not at all. She was praying activity for someone else’s tragedy and I just can’t get pass that. She’s an entitled snobbish brat. And I might be projecting here cause I hate her mother so much but it was a major mistake to make this public. She felt fully entitled to another women’s baby and doesn’t seem to understand anyone else pain. Much like Lori. 
 

I’m fired up I’m sorry. 
I told myself once Alyssa adopted I was going to stop checking cause I didn’t want to see the shit show of her talking about Gideon and her adopted black baby. But her crying about a failed adopting might be worse.

It kinda felt like that to me, too.  She was actively praying for someone else's tragedy. Again, adoption is great...great for a woman who finds herself in a situation and has no other options, great for folks who can't have a baby. Great for the baby...but it almost felt like a "mail order baby" in this situation rather than a good solution for all in a difficult situation.  

And while I will give Alyssa the benefit of a doubt that her beliefs don't align 100% with her mother's, I find it ironic that the "sweet birth mama" Alyssa keeps referring to would be considered a Jezebel or worse for having sex and getting pregnant outside of marriage. Lori would absolutely be throwing judgement around.

 

Purely speculation bus here, but I wonder what Lori thinks of this new development?   I wonder if she is castigating the "sweet birth mama" for changing her mind and raising the child herself instead of letting the clearly superior in every way Alexander clan do it.  I hope that isn't the case.  The "sweet birth mama" deserves all the love and support in keeping her child as she would if she decided to relinquish he baby for adoption.

I’ve heard this language used before, where people are basically praying for a baby that hasn’t even been conceived yet and it just really always creeps me out. There’s a lot of talk around adoption on social media that really unsettles me. I mean I understand the idea of you put it out there in the universe will receive you but setting up a crib for a baby you don’t even have seems a little strange to me( to put it mildly).

and yes I’ve often had the same thought about how the same birth mother is the same type of person that Lori and actually probably Alyssa would just write off. I can’t get over the arrogance I just can’t. The more I think about this the more disgusted I am.

I think it's more likely Lori is relieved she won't have to pretend to love an adopted Black grandchild. She's horrible and racist, and as much as this sucks for Alyssa this baby is probably better off not being exposed to crazy lazy lying Lori. 

I think most adoptions these days are open, aren't they? All the ones I know of in the past decade or so are. The family I know best with an adopted child (their only kid) has an open adoption and the birth mom talks on the phone with them and the child and comes to her birthday parties. 

Can you imagine Lori interacting with this baby's birth mother? She'd post all kind of nastiness afterward, no question.

Something I’ve been thinking about today which makes me even more disturbed on this whole situation. Whatever they end up doing I’m nearly certain that Alyssa is going to make a post or write about how God was writing a more beautiful story. Like how somehow the tragedy of other peoples lives have benefited hers in a way that God intentionally wanted. I mean if that’s not narcissistic and self-centered and white savior I don’t know what is. Bad shit happens. And often there isn’t an explanation. This toxic idea that they should be grateful for all these things it’s just very harmful. This is an extreme example but I’m Jewish so I feel like it’s OK. I’m sure as hell never felt gratitude when I think about the holocaust.

Adoption is a complicated and sensitive thing.  I have now experienced both sides. My 18 yr old daughter just gave birth to a beautiful baby boy.

As grieved as I was about our two failed adoptions, I couldn't imagine watching her give up her baby. She told me she did consider it briefly, but knew she couldn't do it.  

So yes, I grieved when adoption failed because I wanted a baby so badly, but I would have begged and moved heaven and earth for my daughter to keep her baby. How can you resist this?  OK, I'm done grandma bragging.

On a post today about married couples who don't want children being swine and subhuman, Lori posted this little gem from a trip down memory lane... never mind she stayed at her Door County lake house the summer her mother was dying back in SanDiego.

"There is nothing more important than this." If surrounding those we love on their death bed is this crucial then why can't Lori get off her scrawny ass and be there?

Ditto when her husband was in serious shape in a hospital-- so serious the children came--but she declined to be with him because it was too stressful. She is full of judgement for others but her own (lack of) actions can withstand none. She is SEVERELY wanting as a human being.

So I’ve always been confused about this. Her mom was legit dying and she stayed in Wisconsin? Not that I don’t trust us snarkers but how do we know that for certain?

As I remember it, Lori never mentioned going home to be by her mother’s side. The memorial service for her mother was held weeks after her death - at a time when Lori is typically just coming home from her vacation. Family members (Alyssa, I think) shared pictures of the last moments - family gathered around the bedside of Lori’s mother and Lori is nowhere to be seen. Those are a few things that lead me, personally, to believe Lori did not bother to go home to her dying mom  

 

Speaking of Alyssa, her IG story was interesting yesterday. It was all about showing her followers how well her facial acupuncture had worked. She was sure to remind everyone that she had never had botox. It seemed a very odd and sudden transition...one day the story was a carefully produced video, set to music, telling us all how grief stricken she was. The next, a video to tell us “But look! I’m still beautiful!”

Yeah I feel like Lori would have made it clear (and all about HER) if she'd been there when her mother passed. The fact she's never said she was there makes me think she wasn't. Even the way she phrased that post - "my mother had her children, grandchildren and great-grandchildren... around her..." It's kind of detached sounding, isn't it? Like it's not "We were there and got to say our goodbyes and hold her hand as she peacefully passed..." just "Her children were there". 

Lori, like Steve Maxwell, seems like an alien pretending to be human. I still think she's got some sort of major personality or psychological disorder.

This link is an article about a woman who complained that a Burger King worker's uniform was too distracting to her husband.  The worker went on TikTok to talk about it.  If someone is turned on by a Burger King worker's polyester brown uniform, then he is definitely the one with the issues, not the worker.  Anyway, I am putting this in Lori's thread because I thought about her when I read it.  I doubt that Princess Lori has ever darkened the threshold of a Burger King, but otherwise, I could see Ken leering at a young worker and Lori blaming the woman for it.

What in the world?  It wasn't low cut or tight. What is distracting about an ugly Burger King outfit?

yeah...that was odd...I honestly feel like Alyssa is going to have a nervous breakdown. Not just over the latest set back.  I think Lori created in her a very insecure, fragile person.  The constant stomach issues, talking about anxiety, need to be perfect (eating, parenting, looks, perfectly curated social media sites),  all the complaints about how hard pregnancy was for her (I'm not doubting that, pregnancy is hard for many women, and uncomfortable even for the easiest pregnancies -- but it was almost a self-fulfilling prophecy)

Lori was successful in making her daughter into the weaker sex. All the women I know are the strongest human beings ever. I am in awe everyday.   I don't know much about Cassie because she wisely does not live on social media or the DILs (although from the few public glimpses we've seen of Emily -- she seems pretty strong)...but Alyssa's live up ( or down) to all of Lori's stereotypes.

 Totally Lori's speed -- although her response would be a more passive aggressive video recorded in the middle of the night in which she'd confess wanting to spank the woman, ala those hot-to-trot bikini wearers on the Alexanders' beach walk.

That was so well said, and truly sad. What really  worries me about Alyssa is that I don’t see a huge connection between her and Gideon. It’s so strange to me, who can fall in love with any baby given about 5 minutes together. But then I remember that she is LazyLori’s daughter, and Lori is always talking about needing to learn how to love your children. I have no doubt that Lori is too damn selfish to truly feel that “OMG my heart is walking around outside my body “  sort of love and never showed it to her kids. It’s not a surprise that Alyssa seems to be made from the same mold.

I've fallen in love with one of my students' toddler. I could eat him with a spoon although I've only ever seen/talked to him over Zoom. My friend's twins...oh good grief! I've never had to "learn" to love any child. My own or anyone else's! Then there's Baby A's new trick...screaming "NANA" and extending her little arms every time she sees me...Yup...done for, dead of the cute right there! 

I can fall head over heels with babies, kids in general, critters...adults, not so much unless I gave birth to them

I have had the same thought about Alyssa and Gideon. She does not seem to be really engaged with him. I get the feeling she pretends to enjoy him but really does not like the whole motherhood thing.
