Teen Mom 4/7 - let's discuss

[bliz1712]

Did I miss this?  Should we discuss the episode?

I think Gary is being a jerk and conveniently stepping up to be a parent when it takes away from Amber's time with her.  It really irked me the comments his GF made about splitting time between homes.  You can split time between homes and still have a schedule.  It comes down to co parenting and being on the same page for certain things.  Obviously there are things that you cannot control at the other parent's house, but I think if you can get along with them (which Amber has tried to do very well despite her history) then you should be able to work on set bedtimes, homework, etc.

Ryan is just making himself look like a bigger tool every week.  I side eye the shit out of his current GF.  Let's lie about a situation when you have a film crew filming you and there's proof that you're wrong.  

I like how Catilyn expressed her opinion on the video issue and I 100% agree with her.  I get Tyler's points a bit, but you also chose to give her up for certain reasons.  You can't have it both ways.  And I respect the adopted parents for pushing the issue and not wanting her out there.  I think it was wrong on Tyler's part to just willy nilly post it without even checking with Caitlyn.

I feel like Gary is trying to push Amber into using again. He's purposely being hurtful.

Ryan is a jerk. Why was it so difficult for him to be there at 1:30? The time was clearly stated. It seems like Bentley is only his priority because it gives him something to complain about. I love the relationship between Maci and Ryan's parents. I'm so glad it's a positive one.

Tyler doesn't seem to get it. Carly is not his daughter. They chose to give her up and he doesn't have the right to post pics of her. It seems like what Caitlyn and Tyler wanted from the adoption is not what they are getting.

I totally understand Carly's birth parents objections to the video. I wouldn't want my child to be on reality tv or even having people stop and ask if she is ____from whatever show all the time.

And Maci's pregnant, they haven't shown much of her boyfriend I just hope he's better than Ryan.

Ryan is such an ass. I also don't respect his girlfriend who is not even trying to make him accountable. If he was my boyfriend, laying around on the bed (doing nothing), I would have made him get ass up and be on time. I was glad Maci left and went to his parents. I also hope one day he watches the show and sees how Bentley cries when he has to go with him, no matter if he is with Ryan's parents or Maci. Also, when he was napping on the couch/playing on his phone instead of playing with Bentley (at least the GF was playing with B), I wanted to slap him through the T.V.!

Gary is disgusting and I know from tabloids that Amber ends up with a good guy and engaged. She is trying so hard and i hope she finally gets to be happy.

Tyler is much more immature than Caitlyn. I think that sums it up, lol.

I keep wondering when train-wreck Farrah will show up!

I think you all hit on it pretty well.

I can't imagine Amber's book would be any good. She doesn't have the best way of talking, I can't even imagine what a book she wrote sounds like.

I'm glad Maci left the drop off location. That's completely ridiculous that he would show up 45 min late. I just can't believe he is such a crappy dad since he has a great father in his life.

I feel bad for Catelynn because she didn't know about the video and it could affect her privledges with Carly. Hopefully they end up working things out.

Thanks for starting this bliz1712! I thought about it but got busy yesterday.

I agree with everything that was said. Even if Ryan doesn't like having the cameras around he's being an ass and I'm sure people will ask Bentley about it some day. He doesn't even seem to want him around. And I agree, I was side-eyeing his GF too. Girl, if you are even thinking of marrying him and having kids, think again!

Gary's disgusting and I'm really not liking his GF either. Poor Leah!

Tyler was dumb for posting that video and if I were Catelynn I'd be pissed. His actions could potentially affect her relationship with Carly and he should have known better. I'm sure it's a tough situation to be in, but they have to do what Carly's parents ask of them.

junkytrunk, The cover of the book says "with x" in small letters underneath Amber's name.  So I'm willing to bet that Amber has told her story and someone else has written it down on paper to make it sound eloquent.
