I thought she was showing actual parenting in regards to their safety. did I miss something? Gracie can touch the bottom of the pool, so she doesn't need a life jacket. Addie can't, so she gets one, and Ali can't either, so Leah made her wear it even though she didn't want to (and whined about it. Ugh, Ali has really figured out the card to play to get the attention.) |
MTV DONT COUNT |
She was already swimming when Leah decided that she needed a lifejacket. Thzt's the kiss of death and guaranteed to elicit a tantrum. I don't allow my non swimmer to go into the pool fence without her puddle jumper or vest, not pull her out of the pool while she's already having fun and then make her put it on. |
I think thee whole thing was put on for MTV, to show us yet again, that Ali is different! |
I was wondering the same about Briana and her family. Although I did think that she was working until the most recent season of MTV. Where does the sister sleep? Brianna has both kids in her room and the mom has her own room, so where is the sister?? |
Citizens of St. Thomas are American citizens, so there's no dual VI citizenship. Kail actually sounded... smart (??) when she pointed out that to have dual citizenship, she'd have to go to another country, like DR or Cuba. She's gotten some flack for that comment, but I don't think she sounded like she was serious, and I agree that dual citizenship would be a "cool" thing for a kid (as if being born on vacation wasn't a good enough story). I could see myself making a similar comment, though I wouldn't be on vacation at 35 weeks pregnant. We planned a road trip when I was 38 weeks pregnant, and joked about what would happen if I went into labor on the highway. But I never got to find out because my kid decided to start knocking the night before we were set to leave. We had info for all the hospitals along our route just in case, though. Of course, it doesn't matter because there's no way Kail was in labor or close to it, and she knew it. Kail is a class-A jerk, but I think she's pretty smart, especially in comparison most of the other girls. Her issues are her off-putting personality and completely self-centered mindset. |
You're so right. She knew she wasn't having that baby in St. Thomas. It was all for the camera. And the med tech asks if her face is swelling? It's been that swollen the whole pregnancy! |
|
It's still really dumb to fly to a humid location in the summer if you're SO HIGH RISK that you can't wear a seatbelt.
And also really dumb to think a kid with an American mother and sperm donor automatically gets dual citizenship if it's born somewhere else. The DR doesn't even give DR citizenship to people of Haitian descent who were born in the DR. |
|
Plus I guarantee the reason she went to St. Thomas was no need for a passport. Did she really think she could just waltz into DR or Cuba? There was so much stupidity from all the girls (except Chelsea) in that episode.
Jenelle is threatening to quit again!!! http://m.tmz.com/#!article/2017/10/19/teen-mom-2-jenelle-evans-threatens-to-leave-mtv-season-8-edits/ |
Jenelle will never leave this show. Never. She has zero money and has never made an effort to work. |
This. Nathan nailed it when he labeled her trailer trash who hit the lottery. |
I would totally watch a show where all the Teen Moms have to work for a year at a job they went to school/are qualified for that isn't reality tv. Chelsea would do ugly hair, happily and consistently. Farrah - line chef at Olive Garden or TGI Fridays or something? She wouldn't last a week. Jannelle - nurse's aide? What's she qualified to do? Would be crying before the week is over. Kailyn - this is horribly mean but ... she "has a face for radio." I don't think she could get a reporting/news anchor job. Leah - dental hygenist aide or something? She'd happily do it with a good attitude but get fired for screwing up - being late, hurting a patient, misunderstanding instructions, missing work, etc. Amber - what is she qualified for? same as Chelsea? I think she'd last somewhere between a week and a month. Those anger management issues still aren't fully managed. Maci - she never finished school, right? she could probably get a job as a retail manager or office assistant. I think she'd do fine. Kaitlyn - barely graduated high school, has no certificate or anything. So much inertia with her - I doubt she could keep a job for a month. She could get a job as a cashier I guess? |
She actually couldn't hack hair school, so she went to skin school instead. So she would wax assh*les, happily and consistently. Jenelle will NEVER get a job doing whatever her certification was in, because of all her drug arrests. No medical office would let her be within a ten-foot pole of prescription medications. There was some discussion of Briana above and whether she works - she does part-time doing something with timeshares. She just went back to work recently. But she has not been making six figures per season for eight years. |
Brianna's mother and sister are never going to let Brianna quit MTV once the money really starts rolling in. They'll guilt trip her saying they've helped her raise Nova,and now Stella, etc. |
your nonswimmer is the equivalent of Leah's youngest who has a life vest on the whole time. There's nothing wrong with letting her have some time without it (the kid was not in harm's way) and was supervised until leah thought she was getting tired, using all her energy and wouldn't be able to last all day and was swallowing some water. Yes, it did result in a tantrum but because the kid is realizing she's different and doesn't want to be. Leah handles the situation well and the discussion with allie was a good one. |
