I don't think they would have had the show if she didn't agree to marrying Kody on TV. Perhaps that is the reason for all of the TLC asskissing. Also TLC is in many ways a baby centered network. They probably wanted to make sure there would be more babies for them to film. It's hard for me to see Robyn as the master manipulator, as she's not the sharpest tool in the shed. Janelle and Christine seemed quiet and cowed. On episodes like this, I think I've seen this before. Imagine if you've lived and possibly seen it since. Robyn doesn't seem to get her main role is to have children, by children I mean babies. Her running the business isn't as important, since it doesn't really make the money they need. What looked better about this in the beginning (although there was still problems) was that Janelle was working and Christine was the homemaker. For all Robyn's privileges as legal wife, she still has to do it all. Did anyone catch something upsetting when Dayton was talking about life with the Browns? He said it helped with his social skills, which is very positive! But then did he mentioned something like it also taught him which people to avoid? I was kind of dozing off by that point, and I hope that it was taken out of context or I misunderstood him, but it made me really sad to think some of the kids might mistreat Dayton.

Of course Robyn can't be bothered with that, because she got her baby that looks more like Kody every day, as well as her place in the compound and a TLC check. As for Dayton see the other thread, but Janelle's boys are rowdy and get into fights. I don't they mistreat him, because he's autistic. It's possible they rough house he's nervous about being caught up in it. Since he's a boy, and about the same age, the adults may be tempted to treat them as a group.

Zahdii February 9, 2015 Share February 9, 2015 It's hard for me to see Robyn as the master manipulator, as she's not the sharpest tool in the shed.. Yeah, but look at who she's dealing with: Kody is a childish, lazy imbecile whose only interest is to be the center of attention and gets his jollies by watching all of his wives jealously vie for his attention. If he gets bored he's perfectly capable of stirring the pot so he can watch his women break down and act out. He then gets to chastise them over their behavior, soothe them, or wring some kind of concession from them in exchange for getting back in his favor. He's also incapable of interacting with people without pointing out all of his wives and children, and expecting awe and admiration in return. Whatever reaction he gets, he decides that all the men are jealous and wish they were him, and all of the women want to be his next wife. Meri had never had a boyfriend or even a date before Kody, and quickly agreed to a polygamous marriage in order to keep him. I've no doubt that she secretly hoped that her love would make him change his mind about polygamy, or at the least she'd have a few years alone with him. She must have been gutted to learn that her brothers former wife (Janelle) not only had designs on Kody, but had been in secret negotiations with him in order to secure the second wife spot. With Meri already viewing Janelle as an interloper, and being forced to accept her as the second wife, it probably didn't help that Janelle got pregnant first, since Kody made no secret of wanting lots of children. Even having her only child not long after Janelle's child didn't help, because Janelle kept popping out kids at an alarming rate and Meri was unable to have a second child. Janelle seems to me to be the most intelligent of the adults; but that might be because she has a better work ethic and doesn't talk as much. Think of the old saying "Better to remain silent and be thought a fool than to speak out and remove all doubt." I had hopes for her when I heard that she'd left the communal home at one point, moved a couple of hours away, got a degree and a job, and bought a house of her own. But she still considered Kody to be her husband, he still visited her and she still had more children with him. When she got an inheritance from her father, she financed the building of the Utah house and moved back in with Kody, Meri, and Christine. A couple of years after that, she added Kody and Meri as co-owners of the house. I can't help it, I think of Christine as being the wife that is the dumbest. She was raised in her early years as a child of a monogamous couple and when a second wife was added she thinks of it as being a great thing. She's talked about how it was an ideallic life, but her mother and her aunt have both left that stuff behind and speak out against it. Christine has never worked outside of the home, and took on the childcare duties of Meri and Janelle when they were working, bore Kody six children, and has been pro-polygamy from the start. She didn't need to be talked into it (like Meri), she didn't decide to accept it so she could get Kody (like Meri and Janelle); she set out to get into a polygamous relationship. And while there were no cameras around, Kody was able to treat her nice enough that she had no problems with the way things were, but when she was pregnant for the last time things changed. Robyn came along. Meri admits that she introduced Robyn to Kody with the hope that she'd have an ally for her competition against Janelle and Christine. The problem is, although Kody says that he wasn't attracted to Robyn and only interacted with her because Meri insisted, he got over the ick factor of Robyn being married before (Janelle was married before and that didn't stop him). Robyn having three kids from her previous marriage is a better excuse for not wanting to pursue a relationship, but Kody has the excuse that Meri really wanted him to try, and Kody really likes to point out how many kids he has. Robyn and Kody might just be soul mates. They're great at spinning things to fit their preferred story. They love being on TV and being in charge of the family dynamic. It makes sense that in the end they up together as man and (legal) wife. Whatever excuse they give to the public, whatever they said to Meri, Janelle, and Christine, the end result is that Kody and Robyn are now legally bound. Meri is the ex-wife, and Janelle and Christine are the baby mamas. No matter what any of them say to the outside world, public perception will trump all. That has got to sting. The really sad part about all this is that the 'adults' would be better off asking almost any of the kids over the age of 12 what to do, and they'd probably get better advice than they would if they all got together and talked about it. I can only guess that it's because that they've spent so much time creating their own drama that they forgot to fully indoctrinate their kids, and the end result is that for the most part the kids have a better handle on how to live than the adults do. 19 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/21797-s05e15-robyn-behind-the-scenes/#findComment-805521

3girlsforus February 9, 2015 Share February 9, 2015 So here's an interesting question.. Meri texted that next week we will hear the 'truth' about the latest news. We are assuming that means the divorce/remarriage. Even if we assume that everything they say next week is true (yes this exercise will take a great deal of suspension of disbelief), is there anything they can say that will make this ok in your mind? Is there really any "truth" that will change your mind about this being a crappy thing to do? To me the only potentially "legitimate" reason to legally dump Meri and marry Robyn would be to adopt her kids. The problem with that is the only way Kody can adopt her kids is if the father gave up his rights. And if the father gave up his rights, they wouldn't have to be legally married to have Kody adopt them. I'm assuming whatever spin they put on this next week will be a blatant lie, but the thing is, even if it's the truth I doubt it will come close to making this ok. 7 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/21797-s05e15-robyn-behind-the-scenes/#findComment-806460
BitchOnWheels February 9, 2015 Share February 9, 2015 (edited) As for Dayton see the other thread, but Janelle's boys are rowdy and get into fights. I don't they mistreat him, because he's autistic. It's possible they rough house he's nervous about being caught up in it. Since he's a boy, and about the same age, the adults may be tempted to treat them as a group. Sadly, I think Dayton may have been talking about his father. Maybe... Even if he wasn't talking about his dad, I believe with my heart and soul that Robyn and Kody have attempted (and maybe succeeded) in alienating those kids from their real father. Clue #1: When Robyn and Kody got together, the kids were young and malleable and I think they wasted no time in strongly encouraging them to call Kody "dad". I recall Robyn correcting one of the kids when they referred to Kody by his name. That's just all kinds of wrong. Clue #2: Robyn speaks very poorly of her kids' father on national TV, in front of the family (think back to the "he took my virginity" speech). I shudder to think what she says about their dad in front of those kids. Robyn should be careful. Alienation is grounds for losing custody.

LilWharveyGal February 9, 2015 Share February 9, 2015 Is there really any "truth" that will change your mind about this being a crappy thing to do? Speaking for myself, no. I don't doubt that there could have been significant financial and/or legal advantages to one or more of the wives and their children by "restructuring" the family. For me, the honeymoon in Hawaii is the bridge too far. You don't celebrate adoption, access to financial aid, mortgage refinancing, or whatever, by running off to the islands with just the new wife. 12 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/21797-s05e15-robyn-behind-the-scenes/#findComment-806507
Cherrio February 9, 2015 Share February 9, 2015 Did anyone else notice Meri's neck and how she had these angry red splotches while Robyn was telling her she was pregnant? 3 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/21797-s05e15-robyn-behind-the-scenes/#findComment-806738
Sammich63 February 9, 2015 Share February 9, 2015 (edited) I really am curious how the family will spin this divorce/marriage. I noticed Robyn has put on weight since she had Solomon. She's still smaller than the other wives. Janelle is looking good and so is Christine.
