Teen Mom (possible spoilers)
I know we haven't really talked about the show for a couple of weeks. Did you watch last night's episode? WDYT about the girls so far and their situations?
Re: Teen Mom (possible spoilers)
I'm spacing out on names right now... but the mommy of the twins is doing good, in my opinion, so far. I'm glad she's going in for a second opinion, putting her babies and concerns before her wedding and just basically taking charge. I'm happy everything is working out for her right now.
All the other moms.... I just have to take a deep breath and remind myself I'm watching TEEN Mom. With the exception of Janelle, the other two girls have really good, supportive adults in their lives and I just really wish they'd listen to them and take some of their advice.
Janelle's mom is okay. Still really odd, but at least she hasn't gone in for full official custody yet. Janelle needs to get her priorities straight.
Jenelle is stupid. Her decisions make my blood boil. Her mom isn't that much better either. Her voice makes me cringe.
And I want to punch Adam (Chelsea's boyfriend) in the scrotum. He is one pathetic loser.
Everyone but Leah completely and totally sucks.
Jenelle's mom is worse than she is, I think. I wish she would've put that poor baby up for adoption. He is just too wonderfully precious to live with either of those horrid women.
I used to like Kailyn, but now I realize what a selfish and pathetic child she is. I think Janet and Jo are jaded and biased crybabies, but they will probably provide a more stable and loving home than Kailyn at this point - so, I'm not really crying tears over them keeping Isaac. I mean, sucks the baby and no mom should be kept entirely from seeing their child. But, he is better off living there with them until Kailyn gets her shits together, IMO.
Chelsea is really dumb. Like, really really just d-u-m-b. And really, really lucky she has forgiving friends (who probably though just want to be on TV). Adam is abusive, and she needs to realize that loving her daughter means keeping her away from that kind of turmoil, fighting, tears, and pain. That's one baby-daddy I do not think needs to have anything to do with the raising of an innocent little girl. Can you imagine? It's "normal" to cheat? Five times cheating is "no big deal"? And "everyone cheat"? Winner! Worse than Chelsea or Adam though - Chelsea's dad. At least Chelsea and Adam have age as an excuse. What's dad's excuse for being a complete enabler? He should blame himself entirely for all of his daughter's shortcomings, including getting back with Adam. He enabled the entire thing. He needs to stop giving her money yesterday. And by yesterday, I mean months and probably years ago.
Everyone but Leah sucks. I don't really even like Corey...but, that's just b/c he's a redneck who is going to wear a Camo tux to his wedding. As a partner and a husband, he's doing pretty great for his age and circumstances. Leah makes me think - look idiots! It IS possible to have a baby at 16 and put that child above your own desires! Try it sometime!
Teen Mom is my guilty pleasure
<--- and by pleasure, I also mean pain b/c watching it is paaaaaaainful at times
This. All of it. Except I do like Corey. I grew up in Redneck area, and he is endearing. I really like him and he tries hard.
However, knowing that these girls gave birth makes me confident that I will be ok.
