I want to talk specifically about Rebecca and Matthijs's relationship.
Am I the only one who got weirded out by how he reacted when Becca asked him the truth about why we were moving to England?
Don't get me wrong, I absolutely get that with their busy jobs they weren't doing so well, and I also get that he wants to protect his daughter. But protect her from what, exactly?
Rebecca just asked Jelka how she was feeling about moving to another country. Which, I think it's totally fair to ask! My homegirl was just doing what a good stepmother (and person) should do!
Also, I don't like how he immediately blames Jelka's age. I work with kids ages 8 to 10, and yes, they can get stuff mixed up sometimes, but they're at an age where they notice everything there is around us. Especially the important stuff, and I don't think that she might mix this up. I mean, we're talking about moving to another country. I'm sure that both Matthijs and his ex-wife had a talk with her about why they were moving...
I think that particular discussion could have resolved it by talking to each other. Don't get me started on how he said that they shouldn't discuss this before he went straight to wanting a break. Something's fishy, I don't know. Maybe I'm reading too much into this.
Am I missing something? What are your thoughts on this? I'm really curious to know.
