What's really sad about the influx of Saint Meri posts is that they come at the expense of her victims. Paedon and Mykelti have both said that they got in trouble for speaking out about their abuse. Fans of Meri will also criticize and victim blame any of the kids who speak out.
Meri was verbally, emotionally, financially, and physically abusive to the family. Children went without so she could have more space better food, and nicer belongings. Janelle, Christine, and the kids had to walk on eggshells around her and endure verbal and emotional abuse from her while she played victim. She may have been violent with Mykelti and K.
The family lived in fear of this monster, yet she's praised for things she didn't do.
It's also baffling that the lie of Meri being a main breadwinner before the show is repeated despite the book, show, and Meri’s own interviews assert thst she only ever had part-time jobs that she would quit or take off time from without PTO so she could monopolize K. She worked the least and took from the family budget so she could fund her expensive tastes.
Meri is a bad person. Out of the cast, she is the second worst person after K. If she's on a healing journey, that healing should include admitting her past instead of having her employees post lies about her goodness and purity on Reddit.
