Pictures of Carly's brother have been posted online. It looks to me like he may be Mexican or Latino, or he may just have had a good tan. http://ohnotheydidnt.livejournal.com/83498322.html

I wonder how much money Matt gets from being on Teen Mom. He seems to be on a lot. Way too much. I'd much rather see Gary. It makes me sick to think he could be raking in the bucks from MTV.

Has Butch been sentenced yet for the driving while suspended incident? I'm just curious if he will just get a few days/weeks in jail or if he will actually be sent back to prison. All I could find was that he was in jail from Oct. 13-17 and released from that jail but the authors of the articles were not sure if he was transferred to another facility or actually freed. His DOC page has no updates. http://mdocweb.state.mi.us/otis2/otis2profile.aspx?mdocNumber=262573

Thanks for the interesting stories! CofCinci, I am happy you are recovering from surgery well. Take care!

Regarding B&T's other adopted child (who I think is a boy)....I just remembered that I read here awhile back that Cate met the girl who placed her baby with B&T at one of her and Tyler's speaking engagements for Bethany. If I am remembering correctly, the girl came to hear C&T speak, somehow became very close with Cate, and Cate was there for her throughout her pregnancy and adoption. I'm not sure if Cate referred this gal to B&T or what, but apparently Cate and her were so close that Cate was there when the girl handed her baby over to B&T. I wonder if Cate and her are still close and if she has the same kind of "open" adoption arrangement that C&T have. It would be interesting to know what the relationship and contact has been like and will be between that girl, B&T, and B&T's adopted son. If the arrangement is similar, I'd be curious to know if B&T are more willing to have ongoing visits with this other girl since she is not in the spotlight with pictures of the baby, drama over what should be kept private, dirty laundry, mental health issues, heavy weed use, etc. It's possible that after a certain amount of time, B&T want to cease visits with all the birthparents. It could be possible that C&T have done things (and not done things) that cause B&T to not feel comfortable continuing visits with them and they might not feel the same way about the other birth mom (and birth dad, if he is in the picture).

It's 7-8 years later and Cate and Tyler are dumber than a box of rocks (2 boxes of rocks?), so I expect back when they were 16 they were even more stupid. I am guessing they may not know what words like "initiate", etc., mean.

She'll probably pull Sofia off the show for the exact same amount of time that Maci pulled Bentley off the show because of Farrah and her porn.

Didn't Cate and Tyler normally meet with Dawn annually to discuss the situation, sending and receiving pictures, potential meetings with B&T, etc.? When they greeted each other they commented on it being a year.

I felt bad for Nova in that scene. It looked like she wanted to go play on those animal ride-ons but Cate was yelling at her to come back and what? Sit at the picnic table or lay in the grass? The poor kid likely has little chance to run around outside and play.

I bet any of her management instructors are also mortified! I wonder what management classes she took and what her grades were. My degree is in business management and I am constantly cringing when I watch how Farrah treats her employees and attempts to run a business.

I wonder if, aside from the drama Tyler created about posting pictures of Carly, that Brandon and Teresa have decided that they don't want immature, unmotivated, unstable, bad-parent stoners around their child. Maybe they will be only allowing letters and pictures, at least until Carly is older and/or C&T get their acts together.

I bet the initials are S.D.

I was just thinking that Cate looked old. Farrah definitely looks 40+. Amber also looks older than her age, in my opinion. I think Maci is the only one who looks her age.

I love Bea Arthur in Golden Girls, Maude, All in the Family, etc. Note to GreatKazu: I have all seasons of King of Queens on DVD too! And Roseanne. I will eventually have all the Golden Girls but I hadn't been collecting them yet because I just cancelled my Dish Network and they were on daily in reruns, so I didn't feel the need for them yet, but now I will. :-) I think GG is one of the best sitcoms ever.

Maybe Ryan Eyes are a new trend.

That's where I got the idea! I love King of Queens!!

Amber is so lazy she would be a winner on American Idle.

Yes, I understand that people get released early all the time. My point was that it is possible she is still on parole for domestic violence and drug convictions and that it could be an additional barrier to her working as a volunteer in an elementary school. (Not that she wants to, of course!)

No doubt. Strangers don't need to see the weird morphed Jonbenet-looking images and full frontal naked pictures of Nova or pictures of Sofia in a bikini with makeup on.

I tend to doubt the school would let her volunteer, even if she wanted to (which we know she doesn't). Aside from being a convicted felon, and that it was a violent crime, Amber may still be on parole. She was sentenced to 5 years in prison in 2012 and served less than a year and a half. Wouldn't she remain on parole until the 5 years was up?

@MyPeopleAreNordic I love your editing reason. :-)

Does this picture show Nova with a coffee creamer? Perhaps it was her dessert after a lunch of sugar packets? lol https://www.instagram.com/p/BL1YrXggqzD/

Exactly.

I wouldn't be surprised if Charlie is a 30 year old man she met on the Internet.

Did Bentley give his championship trophy to Ryan for Father's Day? I hope that he didn't give it to him, considering Ryan couldn't care less about Bentley's games and doesn't deserve it. I am hoping he was just showing it to him, but he said "Happy Father's Day" and handed it to him. It frosts me to think that Ryan couldn't be bothered to peel himself off the couch to support Bentley in his championship game on Father's Day. I'm glad he has Taylor to count on for that.
