“Tonight’s episode was an emotional one for me. Using the word dumb to describe why I choose to stay with James is completely inappropriate,” she shared on Instagram.
“I grew up not knowing I had a learning disability and wasn’t diagnosed with ADD until college. Learning was always difficult for me and not passing my ice cream multiplication test was one of the easliest challenges I faced. However I am NOT stupid.”
She continued: “In fact in college I figured out the way I learned best and worked very hard for my degree graduating with honors. Words like STUPID and DUMB are just as offensive as the word FAT.”
She added: “Some other adjectives that more accurately describe the situation are patience, understand, empathetic and forgiving. #pumprules”
