Yes, Charisse needs to go for a second time. And Mia. And Robyn. Gizzy can stay with Karen, Ashley, Candiace and Wendy. They'll need a sixth. Maybe Jacqueline because Mia will be bitter. And I only want Giselle because she'll be on the outs with everyone but Ashley. And we all know that Ashley will pivot on a dime. I want to see how Gizelle reacts without her muscle and toadies.

Paedon says Dayton lives in the RV at Kody and Robyn's house. He also thought that Dayton might relocate to Montana (or Wyoming--I don't remember) after he graduates. It will be interesting to see if Kody and Robyn move again.

JY (host)directly asked about it. And some questions came in from viewers. JY asked all the questions we wondered about: 1) Was Meri abrasive and mean--yes plus more (this whole topic) 2) Why they moved to Flagstaff--confirmation it was because Robyn wanted to follow Dayton 3) How often is there water in prairie plague pond--Paedon saw it once 4) Has he ever seen Robyn cry real tears--no, not once 5) Is Robyn the favorite--yes, the kids knew this from Las Vegas days 6) What has Robyn given up to be part of this family--her debt and tiny home The only one he couldn't answer was, 'What does the nanny do?' It was three hours long, Paedon clearly enjoyed himself, and seemed to answer candidly. He also said that once the show is completely over he will share more details on Meri, but he recognizes that it is a source of income for the parents and several of his siblings, so he needs to wait so the show is not cancelled.

It seems like all of the kids have had some sort of help. With: Dayton, Gabe, Aurora, Gwen, Ysabel all in school I'd be surprised if they could pay for it completely. And they don't get a break. As Dayton graduates Savannah and Breanna start. I don't agree with Kody that student loans can't be taken. But I do think it is okay to ask kids to work during the summer (and work study jobs seem okay too) and I wouldn't provide a car.

Agreed, that felt unplanned and real. And I completely understood how Nicholas felt. It was an unfair ask, and Amrit's rationale suggested that because Nicholas' parent's weren't interested in the pageantry of an Indian televised wedding, and held different beliefs, that Nicholas is entitled to less. I think Nicholas was also responding to Amrit's parents who had talked about the baby taking the father's name and Nicholas pointing out that there is no woman or wife in their marriage. Not a great look for Amrit or his parents. I think they'll end up giving any children both last names. It doesn't have to be hyphenated. So it could be Kouchoukos Kapai or Kapai Kocuhoukos. No hyphens. Yes, it is long, but the kids can use one of the last names. I have friends that use their first last name and others that use their second last name.

Not exactly the same, but I had a life-saving surgery approved by my insurance company. After the surgery, they declined coverage. It got legal and they eventually paid, but it was very difficult to deal with.

$499, thru 1/19. Then it appears to go up to $799.

It is hard to know if Zach and Tori just favor Jackson, or if Lilah also dropped behind Josiah in terms of favorite children. I get that Lilah is speech delayed and not the typical sized mini-me that Tori wanted, but we've seen a lot this year that seems off. Teasing Lilah by being overly affectionate, knowing that it bothered her Allowing Jackson to push, pull or sit on Lilah as they watch tv or build furniture Laughing as she falls through a door, crashes her scooter Watching her crash into a tree on her electric car, not bothering to help her course correct Laughing as she cries when she gets splashed by her dad Placing her on a counter that is three times her height, knowing if she falls she could be injured Delaying Lila's speech therapy until Tori has time What's up with this?

Or use the one they bought Day'un.

I can imagine, though, that he could lose his coaching job. If there is evidence that Coach knew and tried to cover up the crime, the university could decide to terminate his contract. They could see it as a breach of a morals clause. And of course, if Jen wasn't declaring her ill-gotten gains, Coach will be responsible for paying taxes on the money, regardless of whether he knew what was going on. Add to that the clawback of $13MM, Coach could find himself feeling the financial pain of her actions. And my two cents, he should.

Agreed. It feels like the catfisher.

My two cents. I believe that Paedon spoke his truth. He is enjoying being in the spotlight -AND- exacting a sort of revenge on Meri. A few thoughts on the alleged abuse. I don't assume that the abuse started at birth or continued after Robyn joined the family. It could have been when a few of the kids were in middle school/high schoolers. And it could also be directed at only a few children. We have heard both Madison and Paedon talk/write about it. There are many things that Kody, Janelle and Christine may have done that we don't know about. For example, when Robyn allegedly called out Meri's behavior, that may have been when Meri went into counseling. They may have prohibited the children from being alone with her Meri. Kody may have moved into his no sex for you phase in his Meri marriage. The words 'not safe' are largely used to describe Christine's and Janelle's relationship with Meri, and they each have children that have publicly vented about Meri (although Madison didn't name her and pulled it down). There is a reason that this family used the term 'safe' so much. I used to think it was hyperbole, but maybe there was a sense of danger. I'm inclined not to dismiss Paedon's words. Nobody is refuting his claims. But we'll see how the parents respond.

If you do watch, please share your thoughts. I just can't do anything that will give her any money.

I think the horrible things that Robyn said during the third part of the tell all: That Kody loved the ex-wives despite their stretch marks and weight That the ex-wives' actions meant they gave Kody to her That Christine and Janelle broke up the family by not following the protocol rules That Christine and Janelle have shattered her dreams That because of Christine and Janelle she can't sit and rock and watch grandchildren play made it nearly impossible for Kody to have a civil relationship with his exes and a loving relationship with most of his kids. Robyn basically razed the family to the ground. Her words, most likely, validated every negative feeling that the ex-wives and children have about Robyn. Even if they could forgive Kody, because he is their father, she ensured that the kids won't be spending much time with Kody and Robyn going forward. And I believe that this was calculated on Robyn's part and that she wants a monogamous relationship, all of Kody's time and money and to be viewed as a scapegoat. It may be that Suki and the editing elves were smarter than we thought. Parts One and Two made it look like Suki was favoring Kody and Robyn. But part three showed just how horrible and deluded Kody and Robyn are. Christine and Janelle came across as more balanced, happier and forward focused. Now I think the question is whether the Browns can shoot another season together or if TLC even wants them to. What is really left to show? How a monogamist deals with his exes? How women pick up after a divorce to try to rebuild financially? How children are damaged and thrown in the middle? And now that Robyn is just a stepmom, how bad her relationships are with her step kids? Most of us have seen or experienced this so no need to watch others do it. It feels like the show has run its course and now we will start to see books/interviews from ex-wives and children. Isn't that what we have all been waiting for?

Also intriguing was Paedon's claim that Kody, through TLC, wanted the children to sign gag orders so they could not speak negatively about Kody on their social platforms. It is all about reputation for the KaDouche. I believe this. It fits in with Kody's god complex, narcissistic tendencies and his desire to avoid poverty.

If he doesn't, it could lend some support to his claim. I suggest that Meri was a strict disciplinarian who crossed the line to abusive on rare occasion. Kids and animals will remember the frightening event. I believe he was scared of Meri and that fear grew to animosity once he grew up and up.

If it is true, I won't miss them (or the show). I don't need annual specials either. If I want to know if they got jobs or are living in Amy's basement, I'll check in on Tori's instagram account.

I'm kind of hoping that the job is at a peep show where she has to make change for customers.

Please share. More than once I have bought a jar of salsa or spaghetti sauce that I couldn't get open. And I refuse to walk over the the neighbor's to ask them for help.

But her first husband deceived her and took Robyn's cookie. She isn't required to work on that marriage. I see a narcissist and gold digger who is finally earning every penny of the Brown bank account.

Yes, I'm not bothered by that. It was a 3 bedroom house that she heated with a pellet stove.

I agree. And Charisse has added absolutely nothing this season.I don't know why they brought her back. Jacqueline too, really. I get that we may lose Candiace and Robin after this season, but they aren't the two I wasn't to replace them. And for the first time I really like Candiace.

And Robyn is afraid it is like Costco, where you can return at any time for any reason.

Completely agree. And Kody is reliving his relationship his father. He was never good enough and his father wielded absolute authority, with respect. He's trying to do the same thing with his boys and they are 'peace out, pops.'

Dwarfism is a disability and can be used to qualify for SSI. However, I think with the house, Zach wouldn't qualify. I suspect Zach would rather go back and work at the indoor soccer place than ask Matt for a job. And I'm sure he would be very happy for Tori to get a full time job.
