I don't think she has ever been socialised...Maybe that's the problem. She wasn't made to go to school and has always lived in her parents world with her parents dubious values.

I hope this gives her the confidence to make some friends and enjoy her life more.

That would be the most perfect outcome for Lauren. I am not hopeful this will happen whilst Lauren continues to live at home. Her family have taught her that buying a degree is better than getting out and studying for one. They kept her at home when she should have been out learning to deal with the bullies that tormented her. What 35 year old woman would wear those old-fashioned clothes from a bygone era? She is constantly over-dressed for a 1950s cocktail party. I wish she could find the strength to break away and start to make a life for herself.

If she could somehow separate herself from the vulture-like clutches of this predatory woman she might have half a chance.

I wish she could find the strength to break away and start to make a life for herself.

I think she could do with a friend or two to help her gain the strength to break away. I think she's probably led such a sheltered life its just about ruined it. Do you know, I'd like Lauren to write a book when she comes out about her life up to now, I'd read it, bet it would be really interesting.

Her mother would ghost write it if there was money to be made.

That woman has probably already written it so that it can be published for release when Lauren comes out...Never miss a golden opportunity seems to be her raison d'ętre
