Jennelle
Jenelle, the current sperm donor and their brood have moved into the new house. Sort of. When Jenelle goes to pick up David’s daughter with the donut, David calls and Kaiser throws a wingdinger because he didn’t get to talk to David. He’s clearly very attached to him which it going to make the inevitable split up really hard on him. Also, the donut is losing his baby fat and leaning out. I may have to stop calling him the donut. Even when Jenelle calls David and he tells him to stop crying he only stops when he is on the phone.
Why does David’s hair look like a toupee. In the car with the donut, Marissa and I assume the newborn, David and Jenelle get in a huge fight because she can’t go to the gym. Seriously? It takes her three kids to realize that having kids means not getting to do whatever the fuck you want whenever the fuck you want to? Janelle keeps telling David he won’t even let her finish a sentence. Thus the title.
Chelsea
After Adam tested positive for meth, Chelsea is worried about letting Aubree stay with Adam’s parents since Adam lives there. But she lets her go anyway. Seems like a dumb idea to me.
Taylor came over to talk about Paisley’s custody situation with Adam. There was no reason for it, because we already knew the news. I think they probably talked off camera. In other news, Chelsea and Cole have added an entire flock of ducks to their menagerie. Do then even have a pond?
Briana
After a lot of cajoling by Nova, they finally agree to take her to get her hair straightened. I am not sure that was the best thing to do. Or maybe it was. What do y’all think?
Luis bailed on the meeting with the adoption agency. Briana finds out that it may be possible to give her newborn, Stella, up for adoption without Luis’ consent if he has not been providing support for her during the pregnancy. Luis and Briana meet later and Luis is pissed about the information she gives him. He wants them to get back together and raise the child together.
Leah
The commute to the community college is over an hour each way, so Leah will either need to drop out or go the online route. Did she not know how long the commute was when she enrolled? Leah calls Kail to talk about how she feels like she is neglecting the girls by going to college. One of the girls recognizes Kail from Teen Mom. I can’t believe the girls are allowed to watch the show.
When Leah goes to withdraw, she cries in front of her adviser. He explains that online classes have their own challenges. It takes a lot of determination to be successful with online classes. The average student takes 6.5 years to complete a degree. I think she should have toughed out the rest of the term instead of withdrawing and then gone to online next time to see how she likes that. I used to be an adviser to kids like Leah and that would have been my advice.
Kailyn
Somehow Kailyn is taking seven classes at her college. She meets with her adviser because her adviser is concerned that she has too many classes plus an incomplete and her grades are bad. She seems very defensive about her grades claiming she has made up all her work. It sounds like she has been cutting a lot of classes, The adviser asks about Baby Daddy 3. She says he comes around when he wants to and she is going to graduate and take care of things herself. Baby Daddy 3 is Chris Lopez. Chris did show up for the birth and seems to like having a son in theory. He doesn’t seem incredibly literate or mature. He is certainly no Javi or Jo. He spends a lot of time only talking about chicken wings in either broken English or text speak. I’d venture to say he will not be paying child support.
This is supposed to be Kailyn’s last semester before graduation. If she doesn’t blow it.
We see her give a big presentation to the faculty that may be the last thing she has to do before graduation. She is super nervous. If Kailyn does graduate, she will be the first of the Teen Moms to graduate from a four-year college.
Janelle flipping out over Kaiser crying in the car was so uncomfortable…girl, this isn’t your first rodeo, you should be used to it. I loved Kaiser kicking back with his hands behind his head. The amount of crap in her backseat next to him was alarming. Is David’s daughter old enough to be riding up front?! I know we all survived previous decades riding sand restraints and in the front at a young age, but there are heftier restrictions now. Barbara seeing their house for the first time was the most positive interaction I have EVER seen between her and Jenelle, they were courteous and familial. (I watched multiple episodes in a row, so sorry if this was not from current ep)
I am originally from WV, everything takes forever to get to, so I would think Leah would be used to it by now. I agree, TT, she should have finished current semester then made the switch. She is looking and doing so much better though.
Kailyn drives me nuts with her no remorse or ownership for her behavior. You can tell when she is lying because she darts her eyes to side and her tone gets aggressive/defensive. You can also tell that Jo sees through it, but doesn’t want to rock the boat. I don’t like to knock on appearances, so this is confusion not mean-spirited…did she pay for her butt to look jacked up like that?! It makes her walk oddly, too.
I fast forward through Brian’s bc I don’t care.
Chelsea is Chelsea.
I agree that Leah should have completed the semester. I think online will be super difficult because she is always online, so the girls will have no way to differentiate online learning from everything else.
I was going CRAZY with all the Jenelle car scenes but the one where Marisa was cross legged and unseatbelted In the center of the back seat, David unseatbelted, driving, phone In hand, spewing at someone.
That would be so many violations in California!
It should have been a drinking game that whenever David and Jenelle said “finish my sentence” we all drink. They must have said the phrase like 8 times when they were fighting. I thought it was interesting when David said all Jenelle does is lay in bed all day on her phone. I can see that.
The gym comment really irked me as well. I have three children under 4 and haven’t stepped foot in a gym since they were born. I used to go 5 times a week. You sacrifice your personal time and freedom when you have a child. As you said, I don’t know how it took Janelle three kids to figure that out.
Jenelle will ne able to go to tje gym again in a few weeks too (in show time). Her only hold up now is that the baby is too young for the gym daycare. She is a useless asshole.
She has got to be the most vile and selfish human being
Gross taking a newborn to a gym daycare. But Jenelle is all about Jenelle. She is disgusting. I hope she doesn’t have any more kids along with the rest of them.
Jenelle needs to get her tubes tied and burned! She is not mother material. I bet David does most of the taking care of her kids and only because he gets to spend her money and not work. Kaylin did graduate. I’m sure getting a masters will be hardwith the new baby. Leah needs to maybe marry an older guy with money lol. Sad but I just don’t see her getting through with school. Brianna should have given that baby up for adoption.
Since neither Janelle or David work why is it so hard for her to go to the gym? She doesn’t need a gym she needs therapy and some parenting classes. Ok so Kail graduated from college but getting knocked up by some creep who isn’t fully committed to supporting and raising his child really cancels that college achievement right out. Sure you graduated but you’re still doing the same stupid shit that you did at 16. Not much growth there. I can’t even with Bri and that house full of bitter women. They will have to get a bigger couch when the new baby comes so they can all sit there together and bitch about the men who have done them wrong.
I know MTV probably encourages these girls to do this but quit talking about your drug addict exes. Adam is no longer on the show so quit bringing him up. He seems to have some issues and its not worth it to poke that bear so MTV has a stupid story.
Jenelle can’t go the gym? Waaah! I can’t even go the bathroom alone! What mother world is she living in.
TT – I thought exactly the same as you about Chelsea. Here she is always toted as the together, good teen mom and she lets her daughter go off for the weekend while saying she is not sure if her kid will be around meth Adam, but she HOPES his parents follow the supervising order. UGH, why the heck isn’t she calling these grandparents to say you better follow the order or I will be going back to court to get visits taken away. And she said she heard about drug use for YEARS. Just so weird she doesn’t go back to court. She seemed to barely care at all! It was weird.
Not knowing the laws in Chelsea’s state and not knowing what her legal custody agreement states she may not have had a choice. On a Thursday my ex had a drunk driving accident and was arrested, at the time our son was 20 months and was with him, our son and him were fine. On Friday afternoon we had an emergency custody hearing and all the judge did was require me to take our son to him and pick him up until his DUI case was settled and if he lost his license until he got his license back. He said his drinking and positive drug test had no bearing on his ability to parent. We live in NJ and this was in 1990.
I just had to wonder with all her gym talk if she wasn’t jonesing to go to the gym in order to see Nathan. . ..
I didn’t even think of that 😐😐
I bet you’re absolutely right!
