[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I really dislike that the moms talk about their exes in front of the kids.  The kids are too old for this now.  Why can't they film the moms sans kids talking to their friends/family about their exes?[/quote]

Why can't they film the moms doing fun, wholesome, educational activities with their kids? They can't film what doesn't happen. The moms do it so they film it and that's what they get. These are girls who became moms at 16/17 and most now have at least one more by the age of 22. They aren't going to behave like actual responsible adult parents. Their prefrontal cortexes are still forming while they're in charge of raising 1-3 kids. [/quote]

I don't think it works that way.  [b]The producers set up all of these visits with friends, and then tell the friends what questions to ask, to make it seem like they're having an organic conversation. Think about all the scenes with Adam talking to that skeevy friend of his. The conversation is always so stilted (as are most of the scenes involving the dads and their friends). I mean, I think about all the lunches I have with friends and rarely are they so very specifically focused on one of my life problems. [/b]

They show soccer games, and occasionally other  outings. [/quote]

Yep. This is exactly what they do. If you watched Teen Mom OG, they actually showed how the producers do this. They'll say "ask about so and so or x, y, and z" and sometimes the moms or dads will say "no, I don't want to talk about that." One time in Teen Mom OG, Maci's child's father (I can't remember his name right now) actually ripped his mic off and went off and left because the producers kept prodding him to discuss things that he didn't want to.[/quote]
