We all have different ways of expressing ourselves
Unfortunately in some ways, but very fortunately in others, I have been on both ends of proper 'tough love'. It's far from easy, it can be heartbreaking, the hardest thing in the world, and can take unimaginable bravery, but how far would you go for someone you loved? I would die for my loved ones. I'm not saying Charlie's mum wouldn't, and it's not a competition, but imvho she's really doing her daughter no favours.

I also find her words to be rather condescending as she is trying to look for reasons why her daughter was talked about the way she was. To attribute that it can at times be down to viewers problems, childhood problems etc is judgemental in itself.
Has she never thought that the reason may be that the viewers simply did not like her daughter, has she never realised it could be that simple.
I abhor abuse of any kind and would never condone that sort of behaviour, but her daughter put herself on National TV, she put herself out there to be judged, to be given an opinion on.”
Some great points imo

The problem is, as she should
well know if she
is a properly qualified and competent psychotherapist that while she might give her daughter any pearls of wisdom she can in private, she should in
no way offer a 'professional' assessment of her daughter in public.
And she
cannot be her daughter's private psychotherapist even, she
has to separate the roles as mother and her job. If she's currently practising she could be struck off I believe for getting involved in all this.
If she loved Charlie
and was a full picnic herself she would have passed Charlie to a fellow professional a long time ago imo.
