does anyone watch Teen Mom

I've been hooked on this show from the beginning.  I like aspects of it and other things I don't.  I don't think it shows enough of what a struggle it is to raise a child--let alone while still in high school.  Because these girls are paid to be on the show (which they should be) they have money that the typical teen mom doesn't.  We don't see these people having jobs but living in nice homes and driving nice cars.  I feel the show needs to clarify why that is. 

on the other hand, the only couple that is still together is the one that placed their baby for adoption. 

But the reason I'm posting this is last night on the show Farrah gave her daughter Sophia $1000.00 from the tooth fairy!  I think the most my son ever got was $1.00. 

If anyone watches this show I would love to hear your thoughts about it.

Re: does anyone watch Teen Mom

Yes, I watch Teen Moms OG and Teen Moms 2.  One one big issue with it is it does not realistically depict the life of girls who had their babies as teenagers.  They all live off of their MTV income which is much more than any of them would have made in regular jobs.  I once read that they make $140,000. per episode and I am willing to bet it is even more now.  They haven't had the financial struggles they realistically would have had they not gotten on the show.  I do wonder what will happen once the show is finished.  I suspect it will be a huge shock to the cast members when that time comes.  I do think that 1000 dollars from the "tooth fairy" is completely ridiculous.  Sophia is very spoiled. She is not taught to respect her elders and Farrah allows her talk nasty to her grandmother all the time.  It is sad because that kind of behavior will extend to school because Sophia just doesn't understand that it isn't acceptable behavior. I couldn't believe it when Debra told the school that if she wants to wear makeup to school she can. She is in the first grade!  I can't believe Simon came back to Farrah.  I didn't expect that and I do question his motivations.  The boyfriends do become cast members and get a paycheck as well so I am thinking it is just for the easy money.  I can't believe he really wants to be with her. She is such an awful person.


No matter how educated, talented, rich, or cool you think you are, how you treat people tells us all.  Integrity is everything.

Sophia is modeling what she sees her mother do.  Farrah is the most disrespectful person I have ever seen.  She has frightened away many boyfriends because she is so determined to get married.

They have every right to let Sophia wear make up at home or going out.  I don't think it's appropriate, but they can do as they please.  However, the school has every right to tell them that she can not wear make up to school. 

The is going to be a terror as she grows older and we behave even worse than Farrah.

By the way, do you see the port-a-john in the driveway of Farrah's house?  That's for the MTV crew!  The other girls on the show treat the crew as family and friends.

Re: does anyone watch Teen Mom

I watch Teen Mom and just watched the last episode today, I don;t know why they let Farrah back on the show, She is so disrespectful to every one. Her daughter is becoming just like her, I like all the rest of the  girls and followed their journey from the beginning, Unfortunately  i don;t think any of the relationships are going to last,  Tyler and Katelyn are my favorites but i don;t see them lasting more then 5 years
