That was crazy. I'm sure it will be controversial of me to say this, but I'm sorry to hear that she homeschools her kids. I can't imagine that her disorganization does them any academic favors.
Or helps them develop any social skills. I read through some of her other self-absorbed maunderings and was pretty disgusted at how she gives herself a free pass for abso-flipping-lutely everything bad she does to other people. If her writing is in any way accurate and not intended as satire, she truly does not care about the damage she does to others. Yet she's got the gall to be devastated when there's some consequence to precious little her.
Here she is, painted into a corner and claiming to have no idea how she got there, when in reality she's the one wielding the brush. She's become an entrepreneur not once, but FOUR TIMES. Yet she still doesn't grasp that she's chosen a line of work characterized by irregular cash flow. She therefore has some choices to make.
(1) She could choose to learn the specific money management techniques that allow billions of people worldwide to live responsible and productive lives despite having irregular cash flow. Any adolescent of normal intelligence can learn to do this.
(2) She could choose some other line of work not characterized by irregular cash flow.
(3) She could turn over all money related decisions to a person with better skills, such as (perhaps) her husband.
(4) She could take an ultra-frugal approach and spend very little, allowing money to accumulate by controlling the outbound part of her cash flow.
(5) She could live in a very financially irresponsible way, but arrange her life so that other people don't depend on her to be responsible or suffer when she does something financially asinine. This would require her to not marry or have kids.
Or,
(6) She could choose to do absolutely nothing that required effort on her part, spend with zero regard to the consequences, take full advantage of other people's history of trusting and responsible behavior, and drive the whole family into bankruptcy while chirping that she's got absolutely no idea why they should be upset.
Guess what the self-absorbed clown chose? Yeah. The thing is that options 1 through 5 required effort on her part, whereas 6 allowed her to reap all the benefits while offloading the disadvantages and risks onto others who didn't necessarily consent to being conned.
She still doesn't seem to grasp that the root cause of her problem is not the fact that her cash flow is irregular. The root cause of her problem is that she is not doing what she must in order to compensate for an irregular cash flow. Every waitress, musician, sales rep, and entrepreneur know that the key to getting by with an irregular cash flow is to stash cash when the times are good and build up a massive cushion that will let them get by when times are bad. It's not rocket science. The solution of her problem is not to giggle, or to dip into her husband's bank account, or to run up huge monthly bills and simply skip paying them because she knows-she-should-but-just-doesn't-wanna. The solution is also not to deliberately cheat other people out of the results of their labor. She's oh-so-religious (but a member of a religion it isn't fashionable to criticize in any way), but she sees no conflict between the moral teachings of her own holy book and deliberate theft.
That's not Asperger's, that's a critical lack of personal responsibility. It's more likely some form of fetal alcohol effect. People on the autism spectrum can and do learn to give a rat's butt about what happens to others, if they've got enough brainpower to understand cause and effect. An Aspie who's religious is more likely to by hypersensitive about theft, or about deviating from how their religion says they should treat others,
if they give a rip about other people's experience and wish to be treated with kindness and compassion in exchange. This writer doesn't.
She most likely shouldn't have reproduced, and should probably consider letting her children be raised by people who care about what happens to those who are close to them, and I do not just mean her husband and enabler-in-chief. Leading them to believe that infantile irresponsibility and conning constitute normal adult behavior is not doing them any favors.
