The common flying monkey typically presents as a concerned parent offering unsolicited legal opinions. 🎙️
7:43 PM. You're exhausted. And your own mother has just spent twenty minutes explaining why you should file again, what the judge clearly meant, and what your ex "is definitely planning."
Your mom. Who loves you. Who is absolutely, one hundred percent being used as a delivery vehicle for your ex's narrative — and has no idea.
Flying monkeys aren't always enemies. Sometimes they're the people who love you most, who got a phone call, who heard a version of events, and who are now genuinely convinced they're helping.
The information still lands the same way. And untangling it — without blowing up Thanksgiving or your relationship with your mom — is one of the harder parts of this whole thing. 💙
