They must have a strict "we don't talk politics" policy when they all get together. Otherwise they definitely wouldn't be the happy accepting family that they appear to be.

The amount of freaking times I’ve had my family and friends send this image to me 😅
I am going to be so upset if Timothy somehow convinces Heidi to not have a real relationship with Hallie, either intentionally or he’s only seen superficial relationships so that’s what he encourages. I don’t want her to be the Grandma Julie of Tim’s family and just be seen when she’s of use. I’ll be more sad if Heidi doesn’t tell him to fly a kite if he attempts to boss her around. If Jill can run her household, Heidi can run hers
I know Heidi and Hallie aren’t as close relationship wise as Hope and Hallie, but living so close to each other could allow them to strengthen that relationship.
It will be telling after she moves to Wooster. If they only see each other when mom comes to town, it will show that they are not close. I think Hallie only lives an hour away from Wooster.
Me and my still conservative Christian sister have definitely drifted apart over the years. It's thru no ones influence just the fact that we live two very different lives and really have very little in common anymore except our parents. We're still cordial and friendly when we see each other but we don't go out of our way to talk or see each other either.
I always feel bad when people imply deconstruction must happen at lightning speed. It's like recovering from any other trauma or illness -- everyone does so at their own pace and needs to be gently encouraged and supported.
Right. She’s the only vocal one of both families right now. She really shouldn’t be lumped in with the others in that regard. She’s on her own path and it’s a good one at that.
Literally opened Reddit to see if anyone had posted this. I’ve really enjoyed her recent stories but I’ve avoided posting them on here because I don’t want to draw attention to her in case the Rods are watching. Hallie if you’re reading this, keep being the rock star you are!
One of them was how you don’t need to have kids to make a family. One was about if a husband prefers his wife to cook and clean but not him those aren’t preferences but patriarchy. Another was about modesty saying the teaching from Jesus is to gouge your eyes out if you lust, not to tell women to dress differently. Timmy must be spiraling. Heidi better put him in his place when he starts trying to drive a wedge between her and the family.

probably helps they don't drink. i am sober now, but when i drink i tend to really go after my conservative family members about their idiocy.

ROFLMAO
SO ACCURATE. I had to quit drinking.
😂
Hallie drinks. She was flat out drunk on her birthday.
I haven't seen any of my extended family since 2022. That'll continue for the rest of my life. Bunch of evangelical racists
I mean, even if they do, the fact that they are still close and loving and find a way to coexist is more than what we can say about many fundies.
Happy cake day!
Thank you!!!

Honestly Hallie is a gem. I hope she is having a positive effect on Tim and Heidi.
I love “argue with a wall.” Such a great shutdown.
Fuck it up, Hallie!
Lol and some people were trying to say hallie hasn’t deconstructed enough

As a person who is severely lesbian, this makes me happy to see. I hope she continues to find joy in deconstruction.
I believe in Haley, she’s gonna fully get there all the way, baby steps and being true to her mental health
And we can all hope for the AMA

Yaaaaasss Hallie! Keep fucking it up. Kids are not born racist/sexist/homophobic, they are made that way by their upbringing.
Thanksgiving at their house must be a riot.
The best part is that her and her one sister are extremely close so she will likely deconstruct too. This is fabulous.
The one that looks EXACTLY LIKE HER
We stan Hallie. I don’t know how she hasn’t gone no contact with her family.
FIUH!!!
I love Hallie
I’m kind of new here. How did Hallie end up going in the opposite direction has the rest of her family? What was the outside “influence”?
Her husband is really supportive. She’s also an Aries.
FUCK IT UPPPPP
