A Mother's Battle for Her Daughter's Privacy and Self-esteem 💪

In a world where co-parenting can be a minefield, one mother found herself in a face-off with her ex's new girlfriend over their daughter's privacy. The stepmom, Kathy, crossed a line by reading Amelia's private journal and then proposing a diet plan for the teenager, who already struggles with self-esteem issues. The mom stood her ground, setting boundaries with Kathy, and taking Amelia home until she felt ready to return to her dad's. But Kathy's response? Accusing the mom of coming between her and her boyfriend. Was the mom right to intervene? Or did she overstep? Let's see what the internet thinks of this situation...🤔
