A- MEN! They are grifters of the highest variety. They support MLMs that enrich them at the expense of the fools on their downline. Janell sells Plexus which does the same and makes health promises that aren’t true and possibly harmful. Their son killed himself but none of them were smart enough or emotionally intelligent enough or risk their cash cow to think that maybe, just maybe this circus contributed to that - nope - keep ‘a filming and filling our pockets.

Not a one has said “now is my chance to get properly educated and have something real.”
Just keep grifting. Janelle with no farming experience or knowledge is like “I’m gonna make a farm”.

I cannot begin to understand their supporters.

MLMs are very big with LDS and the AUB (the more-liberal-than-FLDS-but-still-a-polygamous-cult) which is where the Sister Wives sprang from. It's of the few ways women are encouraged to work from home. I haven't kept up with the show outside of articles here and there for a long time, but I don't see the original wives as grifters. Robyn, yes. The originals were trying to gain acceptance in mainstream culture and stumbled into a way out they didn't even know they needed or wanted. I think with the very limited skills and educations they had, they have done the best the could for their kids. Not trying to legitimize the AUB or any of that, just providing some context for my opinion.

What are you talking about ?
They absolutely are grifters.

They had kids on welfare on purpose. They got food stamps on purpose.
They are horrible humans , hypocrites bible thumper hypocrites.

They were disempowered members of a cult that requires that.

Just now watching Sunday's episode and sobbing over this damn cat room.

Aspyn (Christine’s eldest) and Mitch are finally having a baby! She announced around Mother’s Day. They have been married since 2018. Mitch has lost a lot of weight - he looks healthy. Aspyn too. She’s always been one of my favorites - very level headed.

So at what point do we expect adults to take responsibility for their actions?
