Trashy Tuesday

Ya, its a day late, but you all voted to have me review the Teen Mom 2 Dr Drew Check up. So here it is.....
I've wrestled with this show...I cant stand the fact these people have become famous because they  got pregnant as a teenager...I know alot of teens think this is cool now, but borrow  a 2 year old for a day and you'll know its not easy!!!!

When the show opens, all the girls are chatting with dr drew and Leah and Chelsea look orange...too much tanning bed people! Dr. Drew does his whole I care about you spiel when you know he has a script and wants to push for ratings...ugh, really do people think they will actually get anything positive from a 10 minute interaction? Real therapy is private and takes a long time, and some of these moms need REAL therapy!

Leah- start with the happiest right? Leah and Corey break the mold of the teen mom statistics and I am grateful someone finally did! Dr Drew sets out to make Leah cry of course about her daughter, and he does. We knew that would happen. Corey is great and supportive. I really think these 2 made it because of their strong support system. Both of their parents are there for them. Its great to see!

Chelsea-DUMB DUMB DUMB. Back with Adam? Are you kidding me? Lets torture my kid as much as possible and show them how screwed up her parents are by allowing it to continue!! She gets all sobby about subjecting Aubrey to their fighting. Why would you stay with someone your family hates, who treats you like garbage and has no job, no ambition, no nada. All he was looking for was a girl with deep pockets. You can do so much better and I hope you do!!!

Kailyn- Finally, someone still in college. I hate how Jo talked to her this season,but at least these  2 come together on parenting issues. These 2 throw verbal punches at each other like non other. Im glad Jo's mom steps in to calm them down and she shoes Kailyn she loves and cares for her. If Jo wasnt such an a$$ than I would have thought they would have worked it out. She's moved on, seems happier and is working on her damages self esteem!


Jenelle- Wow....I dont even know where to start. She's so messed up, I could write a novel. Her mother issues are horrible. Like mother like daughter. Who seriously tells their daughter they arent loveable???? Are you kidding me? I would never be able to tell my kid I didnt love them, no matter what they did. All of this plays out in front of Jace, who inevitably will be just as screwed up as they are. She says she done with Kieffer (ps who names there kid that other than Kiefer Sutherland)  and we all know thats not true, as she is seen on youtube, kicking some girls but over him. Really, who would fight for that? Ugh, So her and her mom fight and then she says shes moving out...again....sounds familiar?

Once all of the girls were interviewed, they ask each other questions....all except Jenelle. I think the other moms know she is full of bull honkey and wont take anything she says seriously. Then they parade out the babies for all of 10 seconds. Woo. So glad this season is over, oh wait here come another 16 pregnant...what about 25 married and pregnant? Or is that only cool enough for TLC????

Trashy Tuesday

I know, its already Wednesday, but I wanted to write about Teen mom today! So, last night was the season finale and a sob fest for me! I got hooked on this show, I have no idea why. Teen pregnancy seems glorified for teens on MTV, but I think this season was a pretty accurate view of motherhood. Let me break it down by each cast member!

Chelsea-I'm starting with her because I think she is one of the jaded ones. Her daddy pays for her house, and everything else. She is supposed to be working on her GED so she can start hair school. Her hair drives me nuts! Anywhos, last night showed her daughter's 1st birthday and her baby daddy wasnt there. He is downiright mean, why she even was with him in the first place is beyond me. He openly admitted to cheating on her 5 times....ugh. So, he shows up to get his stuff from her house, wasnt that exciting like Amber and Gary last season! Thats about it for her...nothing too exciting, just a daddy's princess raising a kid..

Kailyn- Her and her baby daddy are great at fighting. They verbally assault each other at the turn of a hat. She filed custody paperwork(finally they show this process so kids know its not all fun and games) and her and Jo (baby daddy) exchange words after they leave their mediation. She is working 2 jobs and going to school part time so I have to give her props for trying to do more with her life! I hate watching people put kids in ca seats on tv because I want to yell at them. She put her baby Isaac in his seat with a big winter coat...ps you shouldnt do that! Thats beside the point! I'll be interested to see these two on the "Talk it over" thing with Dr. Drew.

Jenelle- I could write  a book seriously on this girl. She is so self centered and has tons of issues. She was arrested on last nights finale for breaking and entering and possession of marijuana. Great mom right? Where was her boyfriend when  she was there to see him where she was arrested? Oh, he took her car down the street to go  smoke some crack....wow.....winner! Jenelle and her mom do nothing but yet at one another in front of her kid Jace. Jenelle's idea of parenting is , staying home, then when the kid goes to bed its okay to go out because he's sleeping. Thank goodness her mom has custody! Jenelle goes and bails the loser boyfriend out of jail after her mom says she will kick her out for the 80th time if she sees him again. Gee, great priorities huh? Loser crack head boyfriend or your kid? Yup, she became a loser to me tonight, or just solidified that spot

Leah- The one and only happy ending I have ever seen on this show. Leah and Corey got married on last nights show. It was beautiful! On 16 and pregnant they were so young and had tons of problems, but managed to pull it all back together when one of their twin girls has some medical issues. She is a great role model for many moms. She gets it, all the other girls are still focused on themselves when Leah and Corey get it, its about the kids! They also have a good support system of family that the other girls dont have! Anyways, I love this couple. They make the show worth it. I think most who watch would agree!

So thats it in a nutshell. Next week is the special with Dr Drew. And yes, I'll be watching because their lives are more entertaining than mine. You know you watch it to!
