Well,well,well what can i write about this show? I obviously cant deny that I watch the show the reason for this is I can relate to it, even though I am now 31 and have four children [all from the same man, my husband] I was a teen mom, i got pregnant young and at that time in my life i had tons of stuff to sort out I remember how very hard it was to be a young mom- but i have also come to learn that being a parent is hard at any age, the ideal would be to get married have a career and money to back you, buy [a home and then start a family but of course this doesnt always happen and I have honesty found out it really doesnt matter! I had my daughter at 17 then my son at 19 [this is also when i got married] we really didnt have alot we struggled, then when the kids were 5 & 7 we bought our first home i decided this was the right time to have another baby, the only difference that time was the fact that we were stable, had alot of money and a larger house but you know what I still struggled emotionally, it comes along with having a baby my husband worked long hours seven days a week I had just for the first time gotten my license and bought a van this was a bonus because the kids and i took the bus everywhere, I was so tired I still am but I was really tired then so much to juggle and so much to do but it works out, then when my brand new baby was 6 months old i needed to be re fitted for my new IUD but guess what I was pregant again the Dr told me, I fainted right there on the ground, but i picked myself up and went on with it, only this time I begged my husband to take Mat leave split with me [ I make my own hours for work anyway] he did and my last son was born, we really were going to have a full house, I found out I had a condition called Placenta Previa which meant my Plecenta was covering the birthcanal C-section it would be, also bed rest which was so HARD with 3 other kids to look after but I was told I could bleed so I stayed in bed, one night a week before I was to have my Csection my daughter was sick with the flu I got up and walked 2 feet to the bathroom to see her and Gush I was hemorging i had never experianced anything like it, i was scared for my baby, Mom was here 911 was called i was put out and operated on then Lincoln was born at 34 weeks, when I woke up I sat up and screamed i didnt know what had happened, if he was okay i knew nothing they sedated me because I was so frazzled I them found out Lincolns lungs werent developed he was in ICU where he stayed for 2 weeks it was hard because they discharged me with in 4 days I hated leaving my baby, I would go back every four hours to feed him, he got stronger and then came home thats when the nightmare began, he developed RSV right away, stopped breathing and had to be flown to Calgary in a helicopter where he stayed at the childrens hospital on Life support My mom stayed here with the kids bless her heart and Greg and I stayed with Lincoln I didnt sleep for 3 weeks, they kept telling me he could die I have never been so scared, finally they came to me and said he was well but needed another week in the hospital to withdrawl from what ever they had been giving him It was hell my child was in so much pain OMG we just cried and cried together that whole week, finally he was well and came home- i am happy to say he is an chubby active 4 year old little boy:] Anyway the point of me blabbering on is to explain why I relate a little to these girls on teen mom, some of them I love watching one i just want to strangle sometimes so i will get on with writing about the show now.
Jenelle- what can I say about Jenelle? I feel sorry for her i can see she is very emotionally abused by her mother Barbara this has seemed to effect her self worth greatly, I cant relate at all to her not wanting to be a mother to Jase I have never felt this towards my kids they have always been #1 to me, she needs to ditch these awful guys she hooks up with, stop fighting at the age of 20 thats really not acceptable, she needs to stay out of trouble with the law, her mother and her need help therapy for sure. I believe Jenelle can do it! I think she needs to see the light at the end of the tunnel and go for it thats what i hope anyway, I Know the mom Barb is to blame for some of Jenelles problems, I give her props though for raising that baby but the situation is o torn it needs to be fixed.
Chelsea- I LOVE this girl, shes smart, beautiful and has a good head on, she loves her baby and takes care of her- Adam is a jerk this is true he is abusive i just cringe at some of the things he says to this young lady and that she took it from him for so long is mindblowing but I wont judge her for that we have all done stupid stuff when we were younger this is just a lesson for her to learn and she will laugh years later about it I am 100% sure I am also 100% she cant see it that way now but I promise she will get it one day we all do- there is a big jump in our thinking from the age of 19 even 20 - the age of 30 its like night and day but again they are all lesson for us to learn so thats what that is. While I dont ever think that Chelsea should get back with Adam that would be a mistake a really big one on her part i think she needs to step back and look at his situation compared to hers, sshe rags on him to get a job as he should shes right, but I am sorry what does she do? shes supposed to finish school it doesnt look like its going well for her, her Dad enables her he pays for everything so I dont think she even really knows what its like to finacially take care of her baby and thats huge, its a major part of parenting to be able to support yourself and child as shes always saying to Adam"Pay your child support" Adam needs a job ye he needs to pay CS for sure but I dont think he has Daddy warbucks to bail him out like she does-all in all Chelsea is my fav mom on the show she has the most potential to go far in life and have a family and career she has family support and this is why.
Leah- Leahs great she has done everything right, I wish her and Corey happiness in their life together and I hope Ali will be okay, this is Leahs cross to bear and they will get through it as a family.
Kail- I love Kail, I feel so bad for her she really has no one Jo is a jerk his parents arent far behind although I liked Janet in the beginning I am annoyed with her now simply because she turned her back on her grandsons mother & thats not cool, I am glad that Kails mom has finally stepped up but I am pretty sure Kail still knows she is emotionally on her own and she will get though it because people like her are strong and I know she will come out on top and shes a great mom to boot.
