Dragging the children in to push Teresa Giudice out

how did this happen?

Boy-oh-boy, it has been one hell of a wacky season for the cast of – Bravo’s hit Reality TV show, The Real Housewives of New Jersey. As crazy as this season was, and it was cray-cray, with all the Jackstabbing, and family drama. I think fans have seen more action since season four has ended. Just since part-one and part-two of the reunion show aired, the ladies have taken to Twitter, Blogs, and Tabloids to clean up the damage done to their image throughout this seasons taping. And of course, they’re also taking jabs at their enemies in the process. In one God-awful, self-serving interview, Melissa Gorga, tells US weekly that Zia Teresa Giudice, called her daughter Antonia ugly. Subsequently a shocked Teresa takes to her blog to confront the absurd allegations head-on and writes a message to her sweet niece letting her know that she thinks she is beautiful and that the inane accusation that she called her ugly is untrue. Further convincing the readers, and niece Antonia, Teresa posted photos of herself as a little-Gorga next to Antonia while citing their similarities. “Calling Antonia ugly would be like calling myself ugly, and I wouldn’t do that”, Teresa wrote. I’m paraphrasing a little, but the message is basically the same. Thank you Teresa! I’m going to go ahead and say that I believe Teresa 100 percent on this one. I actually feel that Melissa’s hate for her Sister-in-law surpasses the love that she feels for her own child. It is Melissa’s JOB, as a Mother, to protect her children from any and all things damaging to their self-esteem. As a mother of four, two of my own, and to Step-children; I know beyond a shadow of doubt that I would never repeat anything some jackass had to say hurtful against one of my children where they might catch wind of it. I am not calling Teresa a jackass, as I simple don’t believe one word that mommy-dearest had to say in her Interview to Us Weekly. Seemingly, Melissa has put the interest of her children on the back burner to go after Teresa with accusations that she knew would enrage fans. Filthy. Melissa. Filthy. It’s shocking to me that this trash-bag is more concerned with what strangers think of her past, than she is what children may say to her daughter in the present. “Hey, Antonia, I read that your Aunt Teresa thinks that you’re UGLY.” Good one Melissa! Let’s see how you blame this one on Teresa when you little doll comes home crying.

Next, I read an article on Radaronline that an “inside source” close to the Giudice family feels that Teresa should leave The Real Housewives of New Jersey; due to the toll the show is taking on her family. Specifically, her eleven year old, Gia Giudice, whom the source reports is being teased at school. Let’s get real, people. Whomever this “inside source” is, they have a self-motivating reason for reporting such nonsense. First of all, it’s creepy how they’re dragging the children into an all out war. Where have we seen that before ^^^^^? Hm. I don’t recall! And since when has any parent left their career to silence a bully in their child’s school? Good parents don’t eliminate their children’s problems, they teach their children how to deal with them. God forbid Gia was being teased for something no-one had any control of. What if, like so many children, she was being teased for having a disability!? My advice to Teresa would be to utilize the schools ‘Zero Tolerance for Bullying’ policy. If anything written in the Radaronline article is true, and Gia is being bullied, it should be handled through the school. Teresa should report the problem to the school officials. If that doesn’t help, she should go to the bully’s home, and speak to their parents. If that doesn’t end the problem, she should contact the school board. Under no circumstance should a parent who’s working to support her family, and pay-off eleven-million dollars in debt quit her job. It’s difficult for many to see the forest for the tree’s where the cast of The Real Housewives are concerned, but the truth of the matter is this show is these women’s job. I’ve read many comments on the internet stating that Teresa has her Fabellini, she has her cookbooks, etc. She should just leave the show. While it’s true that Teresa has embarked on many ventures outside of the show, she has no guarantee that fans will continue to support her if she leaves the show. Besides, Teresa IS the SHOW. We won’t have a show to watch if she leaves.

As you can see in both of the aforementioned circumstances, someone other than Teresa is responsible for posting information that could be harmful to a developing child’s self-esteem. And yet, Melissa and Anonymous would like us to believe Teresa is responsible for harming these children. The only thing I’ve witnessed from Teresa Giudice involving a child is the blog written to express how much she loves her niece and nephews. The tit-for-tat has gone way too far when Melissa’s grasping has turned in to insulting, repeating insults, and/or fabricating insults about her own child. I don’t care who she claims said it. It should have never came out of her mouth about her child. As far as the accusation about Gia being teased at school is concerned; I guess you could say I am more concerned with why that story is being exacerbated with anonymous interviews to Radaronline. Suppose Gia is being teased; what eleven year old hasn’t been teased at school? That being said, how many of us can relate to our own Mother repeating hurtful names that we have been called? Or even worse, what if our Mother print those hurtful words in a gossip-rag for millions of people to read? “So and so called my daughter ugly.” Said in my best Fran Drescher voice. “Now print that in Times New Roman, Bold, 16 pt. All caps, please. This is News Honey.” Unbelievable.

Keep your head up Teresa. You have a lot of support from your fans.
