Brandi Glanville is a mom. If you follow her career or her bonkers Twitter account then you probably already knew that, but it’s a strange thing to actually contemplate.
A woman whose public image is defined by hurling wine glasses and criticizing the smell of other people’s vaginas is responsible for the proper upbringing of two humans.
We’re not trying to suggest that Brandi is a bad mom, frankly, we have no idea. We are saying, however, that it’s not surprising that her approach to parenting is similar to her approach to everything else in life.
Sometimes her honesty is refreshing; other times her insistence on saying whatever the hell pops into her head is seriously cringe-worthy.
Take, for example, the “good boyfriend homework” that Brandi recently assigned her 12-year-old before his first date (and, of course, tweeted to her many followers):
We remind you again that the kid is 12, which means his date should consist of holding hands at the Goosebumps movie, not asking the poor girl if she’s DTF.
If this girl comes home and tells her parents that Brandi’s son asked if she’s a virgin, he’s gonna be the first kid in 6th grade with a restraining order.
Naturally, Brandi experienced some backlash for the tweet, and she made a somewhat decent argument in her own defense:
“Listen people !!Our ages 15&16 are the new 12yrs- thanks to the Internet-if you’re in denial about this do some major research,” she tweeted.
Yes, Brandi we agree that kids are growing up faster than ever, but “Are you a virgin?” is a pretty weird first date question at any age, ya dig?
Look, your sons already have LeAnn Rimes as a stepmother and a mom who doesn’t know the difference between “there” and “their.”
Don’t put them at a further disadvantage by teaching them how to be total creepsters at a young age.
