What is the fostering situation with Brittany Dawn? Also I hate her weird videos with audio from a sermon and she just nods along and points. Also hate when she posts videos or pics of her crying. Like we get it, you want attention but we just don't care.
For the past six months, Brittany has been talking about how she is called to foster and that she and her husband were pursuing specifically a foster-to-adopt (red flag). She hasn’t really mentioned this since the very beginning, though, and has recently turned around and started talking extensively about how reunification is the goal. Initially she claimed that they were going to become foster parents in September, but the date kept getting pushed back and they didn’t actually complete the training and get a placement until November I think. Brittany also coincidentally got pregnant at some point in August, but she ended up miscarrying. In a video of her finding out she was pregnant posted on her YouTube, Brittany stares down at the positive pregnancy test and says “we were supposed to be foster parents” (at least a yellow flag, this has been interpreted in multiple ways by the internet but no matter the interpretation, it rubs me the wrong way).
She also regularly emphasized that she and Jordan (her husband) specified they wanted to foster babies (red flag). I haven’t seen other people discuss this but she also regularly lists ages as babies/infants/toddlers/children/teens and the inclusion of both babies and infants has always confused me lol. There’s been a lot of speculation regarding how it is they are fostering, with theories ranging from her stealing a baby to them going through a private christian agency (which I personally think is most likely but is also a red flag). Everyone generally agrees it is debatable if they would be able to foster through the state given that Jordan was fired from a police force for unnecessary force against a person of color and Brittany is currently being sued by the State of Texas for scamming women on the internet. However, given that it is Texas I’m not convinced it would’ve been impossible for them to go through the state.
Once they did get a placement, it was clearly a newborn baby. Brittany almost immediately shared a piece of private medical information about the baby that should not have been shared with the internet under any circumstances (yet another red flag). She shifted her content to a more mommy-blogger type tone. She was constantly defending being a foster mom and making posts about how she was just as much of a mom as bio- and adoptive moms. She paraded that baby around, posed for pictures, and made it her whole personality. It was ultimately just a little disingenuous and seemed like she cared more about using this child to make her appealing to her audience rather than loving and caring for a newborn.
She really is one of the most attention-seeking influencers I keep up with and she’s kind of exhausting. But she’s also like a car crash I can’t stop looking at.
