exactly

He has sensory issues, how does anyone know that isn't just the norm in their interactions?
I feel it's wrong to label someone for one perceived 'error' in their mothering, it's the holier than thou attitude of her detractors that has always riled me.
Walk a mile... then judge.

You do understand Harvey is a disabled child and needs to be helped with what he says

That's should be around £40,000 000.00 according to other sources.

:clap1: He is also I believe on the autistic spectrum and a common aspect of that is having difficulty in expressing emotion and interacting....maybe she was stimulating his emotions. As Kizzy said, we are not privy to all their interactions or Harvey's specific issues.

I agree that prompting someone with communication issues on speech is fine and normal... howeverrr... my partner used to watch her show back in the Peter Andre days (and I maybe kinda sorta watched it with her!) and she did the same with her other two children (Love yooou, do you love mummy? Say you love mummy!), both of whom are neurotypical.

It doesn't make her a bad person of course but it is a bit emotionally needy - but then, that's not surprising in someone who has forged a huge career out of being in the spotlight. It wouldn't be a massive stretch to assume that she is the type of person who craves affection / attention / acknowledgement... and her various relationships seem to back that up.

Nonetheless, it is still an assumption, no one knows all of the ins 'n' outs of her personal relationships. Then again most of what we DO know comes directly from her via various shows / autobiographies sooo if the information is incorrect... it hasn't come from anyone but her :shrug:.
