Ugh Farrah is horrid.

She's so nasty and when it doesn't go her way, she turns on the waterworks.

The way she speaks to people is utterly disgusting!!

I know IABU to even watch it but I can't be the only one to hate her attitude, can I?

lemon shit was that last week, i didn't realise it had happened. I don't think ripping him away was the right thing for him. It should have happened years ago, but its too late now. How on earth will she co-parent now with Barb when things got so nasty

LuckyAmy1986 · 09/06/2017 12:51

Lemonnaise what is Farrah's book called that you read? Sounds like my kind of thing!

Teddy6767 · 09/06/2017 12:53

Teen mom uk is back for another series after the summer I think. Can't wait! Definitely prefer the American ones though

beepbeeprichie · 09/06/2017 12:57

Teddy is that with the same group of girls? They were all quite something! The girl who put a horse in her back garden even though they could barely afford to eat. The one that was obsessed with her boyfriend's ex. The one who kept sleeping with that absolute loser... It was a complete car crash.

I can't make up my mind about Gary. He does seem controlling but Amber has been all over the place so you can't really blame him. His wife does seem nice and calm. Probably the opposite of Amber! In the old days I think he was a nurse but does he even work now?

There rumours that Kailyns miscarriage was actually an abortion because she had cheated on Javi and was unsure about who the father was.
Im not saying its true but theres a lawyer who only releases these stories about the girls if he has sufficient evidence

SashaSashays · 09/06/2017 12:58

I too have found my people!

The thing with Jenelle is I don't actually think it's about her wanting to spend time with Jace its more about the power struggle with her mum. The way she treats Jace is often, for me anyway, too difficult to watch. I also don't think MTV show half of the shit that goes not here because when you look at her relationships and past behaviour the stuff of camera is far worse.

Barb has another daughter who seems to also have some problems (shocker!) but ultimately I think she does have Jace's best interests at heart, whereas I think Jenelle only relates to her children on her own level and in the context of her own life not theirs or their feelings.

I like Maci, Gary, Chelsea and Catelynn as I think they are in the main good mums with good intentions who yes have had lots of support from some but they've also had to really struggle with other issues like Adam, Ryan and their fucked up families.

I'm really not a fan of Kaitlynn for a whole host of reasons.

Deborah for me is a slow moving car crash and I can NEVER look away. I've even got my DH sending me Deborah memes as we both share the fascination.

New girl Briana is the one with the sister who had an abortion and was then struggling with her sister having the baby. She has a daughter called Nova and now she's pregnant again, with another girl. She also seems to have had a really bad boob job.

ThatsNotMyMummy · 09/06/2017 12:58

She talks to Sophia (sorry i was spelling it wrong!) in such a funny way, i remember a really old one where she was a baby and they were living in an apartment and she's propped her up next to her on the sofa and she's talking to her like she's an adult. It was just odd. I was never comfortable doing baby talk, but it was weird they way she was / is with her.
I could see Deborah not letting Farrah have an abortion with the rational that "this is my chance to get it right" but even in the 16 and pregnant and the subsequent series (i caught up with the first series a few weeks ago it was incredible) she's so awful to her mum, the only person i see doing any controlling and manipulating was Farrah of her mum. She was dumping sophia at the first opportunity and chasing boys. But theres also the flip side that she must have learnt that behaviour from somewhere .

Farrah is so rude to Simon (well everyone) and that bloody ring, how he doesnt ram it down her throat.

Did you see the therapist one recently where Farrah said "i let my mum help me" and the therapist pulled her up "your sounding very entitled there" Id imagine thats the last time she saw that therapist

My head is spinning with all these names and stuff.

It's called My Teenage Dream Ended.

beepbeeprichie · 09/06/2017 13:01

Oh god Simon!!! Run Simon!! When he was trying to show her areas of San Diego and she was being so rude. I would have pulled over and told her to walk!!
I love that the film crew always show you the portaloo outside her house whenever there's an outdoor shot. Because she banned them from using her indoor toilet. Smile

LuckyAmy1986 · 09/06/2017 13:03

Definitely prefer the American ones but excited for teen mum UK series 2, it was very interesting to watch.

Isn't Gary a property mogul now? I think he owns a lot of houses on the street he lives on and lets them out.

Lemonnaise · 09/06/2017 13:04

Does everyone think Simon and Farrah are for real? I have never ever seen them kissing or cuddling or any form of affection between them. I was thinking she pays him to pretend they're in a relationship.

caffeinestream · 09/06/2017 13:05

Is the UK series going to be about the same girls as series 1, or is it a whole new load of teen mums, does anyone know?

beepbeeprichie · 09/06/2017 13:05

A property mogul? Good for him. I hope he bought a new arm chair though. The one he had was all worn and broken and incredibly grim.
I love this thread. Keeps me away from the horror of the election fall out Grin

LuckyAmy1986 · 09/06/2017 13:05

Thanks Lemonnaise.

For Simon to stick around with Farrah she must be nice to him sometimes, right?! Otherwise he must just be a masochist!

angryladyboobs · 09/06/2017 13:06

She was so so so rude to Simon. I'd have pulled over and thrown her out of the damned car!!

LuckyAmy1986 · 09/06/2017 13:06

Haha me too. I don't know anyone in real life who watches Teen Mom and I never thought for a minute there would be a whole load of us lurking on AIBU!!

BeeFarseer · 09/06/2017 13:06

I badly need to catch up.

Another poster asked upthread, but I can't see that it's been answered - how are you all watching this? Which channel is it on please?

I only have the basic Virgin package but it might be time to change that. I miss my trashy TV!

emmyhNL · 09/06/2017 13:06

Did anyone notice when Janelle told Jace about her 3rd pregnancy that he sat there looking so glum and said: "oh no, not again ". I really feel for the kid.

I used to really like Kailyn but after her treatment of Javi, she's gone down in my opinion as her behaviour was completely inappropriate.

Again, we're seeing what mtv wants us to see so it could all be skewed somewhat

angryladyboobs · 09/06/2017 13:08

I have nowtv

They are having a deal atm where you get the entertainment and move pass for £1 for a month!

beepbeeprichie · 09/06/2017 13:08

It's on MTV. I think it's the most high brow of MTV viewing. With "Just Tattoo of Us" being the absolute scrapings from the bottom of the barrel.

SashaSashays · 09/06/2017 13:08

I don't know if I'll watch the UK series, I always found it really depressing. I think with the US I put a lot of the off behaviour or quirks down to being the done thing there whereas here I find it a lot more identifiable and then get annoyed that they're all being so awful.

At least they don't seem to become big stars like the US girls. I wonder how many here will see it as a 'platform' this time round.

x2boys · 09/06/2017 13:16

Brianna was on teen mom 3 ( it wasn't really successful) I have always thought Tyler might be gay?has Amber had work done too?

Teddy6767 · 09/06/2017 13:16

It's the same group of girls on the next teen mom uk series

SashaSashays · 09/06/2017 13:18
