They may have the option of a small private school or even home schooling. Amy might even be able to help with some pre-school classes.
I'v always wondered why the Roloffi's didn't see the farm as a potential for a family compound like place. Kids get to grow up near their grandparents, cousins, aunts and uncles. There is help with child care around the clock. I guess it's not for everyone. My family had a great experience with it though. I think Matt eluded to it, but, it never seemed to appeal to anyone. Maybe, now that Amy is gone and the tension is gone, they will revisit it.
Yikes! that will never happen...those kids couldn't stand to live full time with either parent. I see this as a great step forward for all these kids. They have their own lives separate from their parents and like their privacy.

Girls can get mean around sixth grade, it’s when they start bowing to peer pressure.
Boys are just as bad...middle school boys are cruel and engage in verbal and physical threats...I know about this... my son was the target of this kind of bullying in 8th grade. And now with the use of the Internet it's even worse. I don't envy any mom and dad having to navigate these years with kids let alone LP kids. I think going to a small Christian school probably contributed to Zach feeling safe and accepted. A large public high school would have been a very different experience for him.

Ryan's behavior was disturbing. His anger and lack of ownership in his verbal threats to Taylor were stunning. He actually said that he never did that and that Taylor and Maci made it all up? It was sad to watch all of this unfold in front of his sweet little boy...his parents should have taken this dispute outside or Mackenzie should have taken the baby into another room. It is depressing to see that Ryan hasn't matured one bit in all these years..he's a victim, Maci is the bad guy/gal and he tries so hard and no one appreciates him...waa waa waa. Part of the problem is that his parents coddled him and enabled all of this toxic stuff for years and years. His Dad seems to be sick and tired of Ryan's whining and meltdowns but Mama just cries and placates him. I feel sorry for the kids that he has spawned...he's really just a worthless POS.

My comment was that she HATES Matt more than she LOVES Chris.

I'm not so sure Chris is in for the money. There doesn't seem to be all that much of it, really. He seems pretty genuine to me. My only concern would be when Amy gets real comfortable and starts releasing on him. He thinks she won't, but, I'm not so sure. She will not be around Matt any longer.......I actually can't imagine her really leaving that bitterness behind. Her angst with Matt has been so much of her identity for so many years. I can imagine it would difficult to let go. I hope it works out though.
I totally disagree...Amy and Chris actually do a ton of stuff together. They like to travel, do outdoor activities, family stuff...they enjoy each other and he gets along quite well with her kids. He even gets along with Matt and poses no threat to Matt's relationships with his kids and grandkids. I think once she moves out of that hellhole that Matt has ruined with shitty projects over the years and starts new life with Chris, she will be healthier and happier. As I've said before, she should have moved off the farm two years ago. I know it's hard to leave the place where you raised your kids and your grandchildren come to visit but it has to be done. Matt and Caryn are just negative people who disrespect and snark on her on camera. She shouldn't worry about her kids not visiting as much if she moves...they'll visit and she can go to their houses. It will work out...I honestly don't know how she she could stand to be there another day.

Jackson seems to be a pretty cooperative little guy. He’s not very chatty though.
Zach and Tori seem much more engaged and relaxed hanging out with Matt and Karen. They seem to like Chris too. So, what’s the deal?
Of course they get along well with Matt...it's obvious that Matt favors Jackson and baby girl Roloff because they are dwarfs...he never even mentions the other grandkids and in fact he hasn't said anything about them at all so far.

Not a fan of Chris but when did he ever say that? I can't picture him actually admitting that he likes having a famous girlfriend.
Really? She's head over heels in love with Chris. I don't remember her ever being that way about Matt.
I agree...her whole face lights up around Chris and she actually giggles and smiles around him...Matt is a horrible person. Mean spirited, greedy, bossy...he cheated on Amy with the hired help...he disgusts me and now it looks like he's putting up an ugly ass wall??? He deserves to be with Caryn...she 's snarky, cunning and fake. The two of them make quite a pair.

Well, well, well....what a surprise...Amber sitting on a couch ensconced in a blanket, full make up on ready for her scene. I just can't stand watching her anymore. Always on a couch or in bed and blaming everything bad she does on some disorder that a psychiatrist pinned on her. And I'm sick and tired of her and Cate blaming their behaviors on post partum. It insults women who have a serious issue with post partum when these lazy ass girls use it as an excuse to lay about the house and use their husbands/boyfriends as nannies and maids. Seriously, if Amber is that mentally ill maybe she should seek out residential treatment or check herself into a mental hospital...I'm sure Dr. Drew could work out some sort of plan for her. And I just have to speak to the other TM's and that dope Cory who were critical of Andrew recording the altercation between himself and Amber. Andrew did the smart and necessary thing to do...it's no different then when a battered woman records the abuse that she is getting as evidence to present in court. He knew no one would believe him...now they do. And contrary to what dopey Cory said, I did not feel that Andrew was egging her on at all...in all honesty, it doesn't take much for Amber to go from 1-10 on anger scale...look how quickly it escalated when Gary spoke up about her anger issues! She uses her so called mental health issues as an excuse not to work and not be a part of her kids lives. Leah is the real loser in all of this...her mother will never be a real mom...she just isn't capable of being a proper mom and luckily Christina picks up the slack and loves her unconditionally.

Teresa’s father has passed. RIP Nono😢
Very sad...he never seemed the same after his wife died and I feel he took on too many responsibilities in regards to Teresa and her kids. He was not a well man and he seemed exhausted much of the time. I do feel sorry for the girls since they were so attached and connected with him...they all had a close relationship with him and they've been through so much. To have this happen now in the middle of a pandemic no less, is devastating for these kids. RIP Nonno.

But how could Old Man Morgan put the kibosh on something Sonja’s daughter did after she became 18? Do you mean threatening to withhold money from a trust or something, because that would be a juicy story I’d love to hear!
Either way, and I guess I sound a little bit like a broken record, but Quincy was never on the show, so I don’t think Sonja gets to use her as a plot line. I have said the same thing over and over about RHOC’s Gina and her two-season arc of splitting from and getting divorced from the husband we never met.
I gave Bethenny a little tiny bit of latitude for filming about Bryn when Bryn wasn’t present, because a.) at least we met Bryn in Bethenny’s spin-off, so there is a bit of context there and; b.) because Bethenny’s husband (ex-husband? As of the last reunion, they weren’t even divorced, which made it a seven year divorce for a two and a half year marriage) refused to consent to her filming.
I’m sure it was a great decision if Quincy’s father didn’t let her film with her filthy mother (he wouldn’t even let them use his likeness in a painting in season four!), but then Bravo may not go ahead and spin a story about Sonja and her daughter. If Sonja has nothing to give without a phantom storyline—and it’s my firm belief that Sonja has had nothing to give for at least several seasons, if not her entire tenure on the show—then she should be demoted to friend-of or, if the gods are smiling, gone.
I think my good feelings for most of these women are gone. That’s why I’m willing to give Leah a chance—simply because she’s not them and I don’t know her! They’ve become horrid caricatures of themselves over the years. Ramona is awful and inarticulate and a liar, but she probably bothers me the least. I usually root for Lu, but she’s gotten awfully full of herself yet again. And
When I read the People article that Tinsley stopped filming in the middle of the season, and skipped the group trip to Mexico, I was fine with it.
I’m just hoping it’s permanent. For my TV—not as a real-life friend—I like Jill, Aviva, Heather, and Kristen, with Carole, Jules and Kelly as runners-up. I’m glad Barbara’s gone. She brought nothing to the table. But something needs to change.
The promo for the season looks really boring. Compare that to the promo for Beverly Hills, and NYC has work to do. I feel like production gets too comfortable in their formulas, with the same old housewives with the biggest, most bloated salaries doing the same song and dance over and over. But, contrary to popular belief, the ratings didn’t fall when they cleaned house between seasons four and five, during which time they cut four cast members and brought on three new ones (none of whom was Bethenny). The season five premiere for RHNYC had me excited for weeks, and the season was fantastic. Will it ever be like that again? I’m starting to have doubt, although last season picked up a few episodes in. I just need one person to root for, and Luann was tolerable enough after the first few episodes that I could dig her, so I guess time will tell if they can pull that rabbit out of the hat for like the fourth time.
All I know is that when Sonja joined the show her ex did not want their daughter to be filmed and Sonja agreed to the request. I assume that when she turned 18 she desired to retain her privacy and not be filmed. She doesn’t need the money and maybe she relishes leading a private life as a college student.

It’s not like Bethenny/Brynn, because before I posted, I looked up Quincy’s age, and she was born in October 2000. She was never on the show. Last season began filming summer 2018 through early 2019, so she could have chosen to be on the show the way that, on RHNJ, Dina Manzo’s daughter was pulled from filming because she didn’t have her father’s permission, and she basically reappeared on her 18th birthday. Same exact thing with Tamra Judge’s son Spencer. He filmed his 18th birthday party on the show.
If Quincy made her own adult decision not to be on the show, which is what I said in my first post, fine, but then she’s not a part of Sonja’s narrative. I haven’t minded occasional mentions of Quincy’s status in the past, but, as I stated, it’s shitty storytelling to have Sonja film an entire scene about her daughter’s absence when Quincy opted not to be on the show in the first place. The time would have been better spent catching up on kids who will be filmed, like Hannah, or Victoria or Avery.
To put it simply, I am not interested in watching a show about people who aren’t on it. I think the concept is absurd.
When Sonja joined the show her ex put the kibosh on their daughter ever being filmed. Smart move on his part.

Moaner's whining already just about made me puke. I mean, for those of us in her age range, the pickins are slim to none in the hot guy department. We could be considered the trophy wife of a 90 year old but how many of THEM are there??
My advice? Get used to it, Moaner. It'll be fine.
Yes! Have you seen the guys she randomly was dating last season? Yikes! They were just awful. She should just market herself to much older guys with a lot of money...like Jackie O did.

That “hot guy friend of Ramona” (William, a prior bed hopper of hers) has very squinty eyes, like hé smoked a joint before the party kind of eyes.
He looked like gym rat...probably hits on all the divorced 50 somethings that he meets at Equinox.

Jeez Dorinda is terrible when she drinks. First of all Tinsley has plenty of money. She did make some of her own and was married to a very rich man. They were childhood sweethearts and I’m sure she received a good settlement. Please tell me why Dorinda makes statements about buying her own things when the majority of her money comes from her deceased husband. She did have a cashmere shop in the U.K. and sold real estate in NY but her big bucks came from Richard. So where does she get off?
Tinsley came from old Virginia money...her father was a wealthy man and left his wife and his girls with plenty of Fuck You money...she was a Virginia debutante...her family is well known in the Richmond area. Dorinda has a problem with younger, pretty girls that join the show. She has to show them that she's "tough" and not to be fucked with. She's really just a shrill unlikable woman with a fat boyfriend who is pussy whipped.

I just watched a second time to hear everything. So, is Dorinda the leader of the pack? She’s the best cook, best hostess, party giver and everything else. Know it all much? She’s still the biggest mouth and vicious. What kind of pants was she wearing with that jacket? Skin tight leotards? Maybe her daughters. That was a nasty blow she gave Tinsley about the shoes. They were all trying too hard to be #1. Bethenny must have been laughing her ass off. Oh, and is Ramona really sleeping with that young guy?
This! Dorinda has really gotten very full of herself....good lord. All the accolades she used to describe her awesome hostessing and party planning, cooking, etc...none of it matters when you're a mean spirited wench. Her attacks on Tinsley's character and accusations that she is nothing more than a kept woman are typical for Dorinda. Must be tiring to be such a nasty person with no compassion or sense of propriety. Tinsley's love relationships are none of her business and why does she care anyway? Dorinda seems to be trying her best to be the top Alpha bitch now that Bethenny left. She needs to knock off all the Omegas first before she can claim the throne.

I’m with Dorinda on this one!
not convinced Lu is an alcoholic. She just got caught.
my sentiments exactly
She has a drinking problem...she's admitted to that. So does Dorinda. So does Sonja. They might not be alcoholics but they certainly have an issue with self medicating with alcohol and getting into trouble when they drink too much. While I'm at it...Ramona looked like a sloppy drunk last night...especially when she was crying at the bar and hugging herself and whining about not being able to find a man...these women are just sad.

Why do all of these hanger on husbands, ex husbands, boyfriends and in-laws stick around?
It's the money honey!!!
Mackenzie needs to hang up that phone and tend to her children! Whew! They are way out of control!
Yes! Mackenzie seems almost detached from her kids sometimes. They seem to have nothing to do but roam around and annoy each other.

I agree and I also think that Amy's general negativity and pissy disposition comes from her dad... He was a snearing, judgemental, sarcastic, negative nasty man and Amy is the same.
The fruit doesn't fall far from the tree.
I actually think most of her prickliness comes from a miserable marriage to Matt. When she’s with Chris I see a different side of her completely...she’s happy, engaging and not stressed out...the minute she’s around Matt she changes. Her demeanor becomes defensive and anxious. Let’s not forget...Matt cheated on her with someone who worked for them for years! She was doubly betrayed...by both Matt and Caryn. She’s allowed to be disappointed and a little bitter especially when there has never been an apology from either Matt or Caryn...in fact they seem to go out of their way to disrespect her, mock her and make snarky remarks about her when they have their interviews in the barn. Amy needs to get out of there ASAP and never look back...Caryn can have Matt and all his obnoxiousness and over priced knick knacks that he keeps in a storage facility.

Although they have never directly acknowledged it on the show, I think the anger comes mostly from Matt cheating on her. But that was many years ago now and she should be able to address that in therapy if necessary. Many spouses are cheated on without becoming bitter to the extent that she is.
Really? It isn’t all about the cheating, which is a HUGE betrayal of trust and a marital vow after so many years together and four children, it’s also about Matt’s controlling personality, the fact that he had no kill switch when it came to spending their money and even had a storage facility unbeknownst to Amy where he hid all his extravagant purchases...again, a betrayal of trust. Amy was no saint, she has her issues which some on this board are quick to point out, but she never cheated on him or betrayed his trust like he did her...it’s hard to get over these things when you’ve invested most of your adult life to someone...she should have left the farm after the finalization of the divorce but she didn’t...once she does move on physically she will heal and be in a better place. Her bitterness will dissolve and she will be able to have peace of mind.

Matt has become an even bigger douchey dick than ever. The "inspection" was totally a dick move and his comment that he needed to see if there was "damage and rot" was just a mean spirited and nasty remark. The way he and Caren snark on camera about Amy is just disgusting. Caren is a total bitch. Her comment about never living in the big house was beyond snark...it was mean, snide and totally inappropriate. Reserve your nasty comments about the family home and Amy to yourself or to pillow talk with your boyfriend. I really don't understand how these kids can stand to be around Caren...she is just a horrible person behind that fake smile. Matt is greedy, passive aggressive and, well, shitty.
Amy should have moved out two years ago...staying there has been bad for her. "The Farm" is no longer what it used to be...the family is older, broken and they all need to move on. Let Matt deal with the selling or whatever with the farm...let's see how great a businessman he is..ha ha. I know his farm neighbors will be glad to see him go...no love lost there.

I wonder if Jeremy or Zack would have turned out differently if Matt had had any say in their upbringing?
Oh please...he had a say in their upbringing...he wasn't interested! All he wanted to do was build tacky forts and wobbly play things and runaround in his Mule. He saw those kids as Amy's job...he never took an ounce of interest in their schooling or their futures. Don't put this all on Amy...she made mistakes but Matt was unplugged.

Yes to every post on this thread.
Last week I actually thought Mackenzie had found her inner woman and was going to kick Josh to the curb...I spoke too soon. Apparently a bouquet of flowers and some girl talk with her BFF's changed her mind. Just the fact that he couldn't stay for his son's birthday cake would have been enough for me but the cheating and the sweet talk that he would "fight" for her was pitiful. Quit delaying the inevitable Mackenzie...you know and we all know that in 10 years you two will be divorced and Josh will have a new buckle bunny knocked up.
Cheyenne is a spoiled brat...she treats Matt like a doormat. Why is he invested in her? There doesn't seem to be any chemistry between them at all. Cory really thinks he is the shizz...I see he loves his daughter but he is very immature and kind of a loudmouth. What does he do for living? Just MTV reality shows? Looks like he's driving a brand new Jaguar SUV...ka ching!
Amber...enough already. Why she isn't fired is beyond me. She's a violent domestic abuser and she did put her son's life in danger. Andrew was a fool for becoming involved with her in the first place...and having a child with her was just crazy. They only knew each other for a few months...who does that? Amber hasn't changed since she was 16...still violent, still lazy, still abusive, still unemployed...I have no sympathy for her. She has the ability and the resources to help herself but yet she sits on the couch and whines and cries. Gary and Christina need to shield Leah from all this as best they can and draw some boundaries with Amber. She could use a life coach but she would probably get mad at him/her and throw them out after a few sessions. She still doesn't own any of her behaviors...the other TM's shouldn't drop everything and run to her anymore. Enough.
Couldn't get into the whole light up Chattanooga Teal thing. I doubt anyone in the area understood or even noticed the teal light up. What happened to their TTM t shirt business?
Do Cate and Tyler not see by now why Carly's parents don't want her anywhere near the mess up there in Michigan? Everyone in their inner circle of friends and family have drug/alcohol issues and legal issues with breaking the law. Cate's mother April looks awful...yikes. Stop being everyone's babysitter you two and start preparing for a future without MTV money.

I had a huge problem with the scene of Air Force One landing at what was supposed to be Andrews Air Force Base in Maryland (or McQuire in Delaware...I forgot which one)...neither of these two bases would have mountains in the background since neither of these bases are anywhere NEAR mountains like the ones in this scene. In a show that shoots most of its shows on location for authenticity, this was unforgivable.

Bentley seems like such a sweet kid . I feel so bad for him that he probably has a nice life with Maci and family , but he has no other choice but to see Ryan . You can see on his face that he resents him already , but is too respectful to talk back to him .
Why does literally everyone in Ambers life kiss her ass ? What she did was disgraceful and somehow they think the boyfriend is the sociopath ( which he probably is , but you ain’t far off , Amb ) . No one , including the hosts at the reunion ever tell her that she’s responsible for her behavior .
Amber is the sociopath and bully. Andrew does not fit the criteria for it but rather he appears to be socially awkward and maybe an opportunist. We have seen how Amber manipulates her family and the other TMs into feeling sorry for her and blaming everyone else for her addictions, bully behavior and physical abuse of boyfriends. She and Caitlin continue to blame "post partum" for all their terrible choices and in Amber's case, her verbal and physical violence of her partners. Amber is a bully and a liar. Why MTV continues to support her and pay her for this is beyond me. Fake crying, blaming everyone else for everything wrong in her life and pretending to be a caring, loving mom is just a farce and an insult to our intelligence. You can see how Leah does not want to be with her anymore and James has no bond with her at all because she never had much to do with him...looked like Andrew did everything in the baby care department when they were together. All she did was sit on the sofa or bed and whine, complain and verbally abuse all those around her. Appalling that she had the audacity to claim that she "works" and and has "worked so hard"...she has never had a job in her life, much like the most of these girls on this show. But by all means MTV, keep enabling this bullshit.

I was totally disgusted with Ryan's behavior last night. What kind of a man/father purposely goes out of his way to not only beat his kid at a a golf game, a kid who is what 8/9? and then rub it in and mock him? and what kind of a woman sits at a restaurant with her lame ass husband and laughs and giggles at how her husband humiliated her stepson? And Ryan's parents just sit there and shush Bentley and of course allow Ryan to be the shit head he is. Then...at the restaurant where they went without Bentley, of course, after the golf outing, Ryan whined again about not being able to have Bentley without his parents hanging around and griped about Bentley's baseball. Gee Ryan, do you ever take ownership of what you did that put the restraining order in place? He sees himself as a victim and Maci will always be the perpetuator of everything wrong in his life...and he has a spouse that enables him as well as useless parents...especially his mommy. In a few years Bentley will not want to be with Ryan at all...when he turns 18 he will tell him to shove it and have as little contact with him as possible. And BTW...he's still using....it's obvious.

S12.E02: Stooping to a Lower Level
in The Real Housewives Of New York City
I liked Dorinda when she first joined the show but in recent years she has become unbearable. She's obnoxious, combative, nasty, mean spirited and beyond snarky. She needs therapy...more than any other woman on the show. She fights with everyone and deliberately picks fights with everyone. At first I just thought it was because of her drinking but then realized she just became more in your face when drinking...she still behaves like a bully when she's sober...the alcohol just exacerbates her behavior. Someone needs to pull her aside and suggest that she get into psychotherapy and get help...an older woman who has this kind of negative and toxic stuff going on is not a pretty picture.
YES! Listening to these old farts talk about tattoos had me thinking..."OK Boomer!"
