BabyDaddy

Her intro/outline slide had just three sections regarding her "make your brand" presentation. If I squint my eyes I think the sections were titled: "Get knocked up twice" , "Pizza with Ranch Dressing" , and "Tell him you can't get pregnant and he can pull out" That and the video biography... good god, how did the people in the room keep a straight face? An embarassment for DSU and that department.

Vee is right - it's time to strike while the beast is down! Perhaps the judge will be persuaded to give Joe at least 50/50 now that Kail has baby #3 without the baby daddy around to help, since clearly she is making wreckless decisions.

OMG.. hilarious!!! thanks for the good laugh on a sick day!

Disclaimer: I feel like most of the posters here are female, and I'm just a dude with an opinion so take it with a grain of salt. I have to stick up for Barbara. My mother-in-law helps a lot with my kids since my wife is often sick, and I really appreciate it - so I put myself in Barbara's position. I think she has done more than enough for Janelle. Yes, it sucks for Kaiser roll that Barbara cannot give any more help. Btw - that kid is like a carbon copy of Nathan - that doesn't help him in Barbara's eyes either I guess. Putting aside Barbara's imperfections (let's face it though, having Janelle in your life wouldn't bring out the best in you) what has she gotten in return for helping Janelle with Jace? This is an elderly woman already taking care of two grand kids (one full time) and holding down a job. Jesus, I barely have enough energy holding down a job and two kids and a wife - how she manages with Janelle making life 10 times harder is beyond me. If she get's involved then it will be Jace 2.0 - you know Janelle is going to accuse her of trying to steal custody of Kaiser roll from her. How much more stress should Barbara take?

MAD Tv called, they are coming back on air and need to recast for Melina and Lida. Maybe Briana and her sister?

The Delaware section of this website shows a likely scenario to Kail the Garbage Pail: http://www.realworlddivorce.com/Delaware SCENARIO 1 (Professional Wife and Slacker Husband) A 35-year-old female hand surgeon [or Reality TV star] earning $325,000 per year marries a 33-year-old photographer [AirForce Man]. She sets up her husband with a photo studio and $100,000 of equipment, but he works just a few hours per week. They have a one-year-old child who is cared for by a nanny. The father is often home with the baby and nanny, but he spends most of his at-home time watching TV and surfing the Internet, leaving the child-rearing chores to the nanny. With the mom at work and/or taking care of the baby, the dad begins an affair with a young fashion model. After two years of marriage, the mom sues for divorce, custody, and child support. Kerr says that this kind of case, in which the mother may pay the father, is "more common these days". Do the judges apply the law in a gender-neutral fashion in Delaware? "Yes," says Kerr, "but men are less likely to get alimony because they are not as likely to ask for it. Men and women have different ideas regarding the concept of receiving support from an ex-spouse." Kerr said "You're looking at a shared 50/50 parenting time arrangement. Probably on a 2-2-3 schedule moving to a 2-2-5-5 schedule when the child is older." How about cash transfers? The simple online calculator shows that with a 50/50 parenting time arrangement (putting "0.5" children into each parent's "Number of Children Due Support" box) and zero income for the father, the mother pays him $1557 per month ($18,684 per year). If she could obtain instead an 83/17 arrangement as would be standard in New York her payments would fall to $459 per month ($5508 per year). Thus litigating for sole custody would have a maximum cash value to the mother of $223,992 over 17 years, much less than in many other states. Any income for the father would reduce these payments due to Delaware's "income shares" child support system. If the father's current photography business is not profitable, Kerr says that income will be imputed to the father based on "[official Bureau of Labor Statistics] wage and salary surveys. Also, they can look at his tax return and see what deductions can be removed." Who presents an argument regarding imputed income? "Generally this is presented by an attorney," says Kerr, "but you could hire a vocational evaluator." Given that the father has no money, will a judge order the surgeon to pay his legal fees? "It is unlikely that he could get her to pay due to the short [two year] length of the marriage," says Kerr. "Judges try to work out these inequalities through alimony and property division rather than with a fee award." What kind of alimony and property division could the slacker father collect? "In a short-term marriage of two years or less they try to put you back where you were rather than letting anyone profit. He would get 50/50 of property accumulated during the marriage. Alimony varies with the judge but would be short-term at most."

Sorry, didn't mean to be so vulgar and use poontang. Yes, not all men want to chase multiple women. I was that guy as well. Now in a 18 year relationship and still happy. Maybe it's the midlife crisis self-evaluation coming up, but reaching the age of 40, I can tell you, there are occasions where I do sometimes wonder if it had been better if I had spent more time dating different women, just to experience life more fully. Who knows, maybe it would have been worse. But as an older guy, if I was his father I would be telling him too cool things down a bit and keep options open. He could wait until 32 years old (now he's like what, 25?) to settle down.

Coming from a guy's perspective, Cole leaves me scratching my head. I mean, Chelsea is a decent girl and out of all the single moms on these TV shows, I'd say, hands down she would be the best pick for any decent dude thinking of even being with a single mom. And having Randy as a father-in-law wouldn't be too bad. But getting married? Dude what are you thinking? You've got your whole life ahead of you! So much poontang out there to collect in this day and age. Fire up the Tindr and go at it. Cole is pretty good looking. He has a stable job I suppose, in something like traffic control specialist (maybe a little like civil engineering but working on roads). He's like that All American dream for some American girls, especially those from the Midwest. Personally, if I had his good looks, I'd spend more of my time sowing my wild oats and building on my education instead of spending time with a single mother + kid, not to mention having to deal with the Adam drama. Randy must be happy, because Cole just fell out of the sky and answered his prayers... somebody please keep Chelsea from dating another loser! Last thing, I will never understand the attraction some of you women have for Maci's ex Ryan... especially now that he's older. I guess for women he's the male equivalent of what a bimbo is for men. The guy is dumber than a pack mule and more boring than a pet lizard under a sun lamp. Now he's just older and uglier. A lot of the guys that peak in high school sure do have a tendency to fall apart physically as they approach their 30s.

Long time Lurker, just had to leave a comment to snark as well. I saw one episode where Janelle says she is now studying for some other health related crap. I'm trying to think what kind of career would be really feasible for this chick after this whole MTV thing is over. And I think I have it. She should be a Pharma Sales Representative. You only need a high school degree (her healthcare studies might give her a leg up in the hiring process). She's safely away from patients but still working in 'healthcare'. She gets to travel around a lot (thus stay away from her kids with a good excuse). She can use whatever sex appeal she has left to sell her products, eg. dressing up like she goes to court in high heels, but instead to meet doctors and eat dinner with them (and maybe more to seal the sales deal). Maybe with some luck she can bang several dermatologists making 400k/yr and get pregnant and claim child support in states like NY or CA where there's no limit. See www.realworlddivorce.com for examples per state of how that stuff can play out. Leah is hopeless. She will never get a job. Hence the reason why she is insanely freaked out with losing custody - she'll be the one paying child support instead of the baby daddies. Once the MTV money runs out, she will just have to keep finding baby daddies. Or do porn.. but she is looking harsh these days.
