Ah yes, the gospel according to Mark: Food, Faith, and Fitness over Prescriptions. Sounds noble, doesn’t it? A man of vision, rejecting “Big Pharma” and choosing the natural path… except when you look at the actual prescription his own kids needed. Spoiler alert: Mark tore it up and rewrote it with conspiracy theories, junk science, and a Sharpie.

Let’s review the receipts:

• Food: Mark taught his son Liam that soybeans “make you gay” and that almond milk was superior to whole milk—while Liam was literally diagnosed as failure to thrive by board-certified specialists. Apparently, growth charts are just “fake news” to a man who thinks nutritional restoration is less important than his next Facebook meme.
• Faith: Faith is great when it heals, but Mark weaponized it as a shield against accountability. He used scripture to deflect doctors, courts, CPS, and even his own child’s desperate pleas for help. When Liam finally admitted medications worked, Mark forced him to sign a contract denying his illness. That’s not faith—that’s gaslighting dressed up in church clothes.
• Fitness: Fitness, according to Mark, is yelling from the bleachers while your buddy screams “Let’s Go Brandon!” at a youth basketball game until parents cry and the match stops. Forget cardio—chaos is Mark’s true workout routine.

Meanwhile, when Liam was at the Kartini Clinic, on meds, eating again, and thriving, his dad’s contribution was… undermining the entire process. Each time Liam came home from Mark’s “alternative health bootcamp,” he backslid, lost weight, and spiraled deeper into OCD. But hey, at least he avoided those evil prescriptions, right?

And let’s not forget—Mark couldn’t even pay for his son’s replacement baseball uniform after a fire at his own house. Another parent had to step up. Nothing says fitness over prescriptions like making sure your wallet stays on a diet, too.

So the next time Mark posts about food, faith, and fitness, remember: this isn’t a lifestyle—it’s a lifestyle brand of Image Control. Because when the real prescription was responsibility, humility, and actually showing up as a dad, Mark overdosed on denial instead.
