Absolom March 25, 2019 Share March 25, 2019 It's worse for the taxpayers than Kody's social security being split four ways. They would each get a widow's check of the full widow's amount. It would be the same as a man who was married for 10 years each to four different women. They each get the full amount if they are the appropriate age. 1 3 Link to comment
Polliwollidoodle March 25, 2019 Share March 25, 2019 watching it last night--- a few thoughts. First, Christine has really dropped some poundage and is looking pretty good. Must be the being central character bonus lately maybe? I do understand Cody meeting with the architect/designer/ whatever to explain the needs for the family build. However I thought it was REALLy quite excessive for EACH wife to have the equivalent of a single family home. I mean, I get that they each need their space and that for their kids, but there has to be so much unnecessary overlap. When he was giving rough square footage estimates, that's when it really seemed OVERTHETOP to me. He said Roby, because she has so many kids and they are at home, would need 3500 SF. I had a house that was 3500 SF and granted, we were only with 2 kids and later empty nesters, but that is really a big house. I think TLC must pay some nice $$$$$$$$$. 3 Link to comment
tabloidlover March 25, 2019 Share March 25, 2019 How does Kody think building this massive mansion would be cheaper than building 4 normal sized houses??? And I don’t believe 3,500 sq feet is necessary at all!! 2 Link to comment

Yes, and to avoid discrimination, if the government legalized this, they would have to legalize EVERY plural arrangement, straight, gay, bisexual, however many people you wanted. If you REALLY wanted to carry this to the extreme you could marry 100 (or more) people and they would ALL be entitled to social security - both spousal and widow/widower. If you were poor, wouldn't the thought of being one of a hundred spouses (face it, your family obligations could easily be avoided) be rather attractive when there is a guaranteed pay-off? There would obviously be an outcry to rewrite the laws but how? Add to this custody and child support in the event of a divorce (potentially 99 other parents?) and the courts would spend all their resources on this insanity. But us boring monogamists just DO NOT UNDERSTAND! Especially when Janelle was acting like it was a hardship to be able to file as head of household! 7 Link to comment

I had never questioned her accusations that David was abusive - so I did a double-take at the TV because Kody was FAR from abusive. And we all know how Sobyn has manipulated history to suit her needs. That creepy picture and the whole "stole my cookie" speech - both high drama depictions of what she wants people to think, not necessarily what has basis in reality. 11 Link to comment

If the four women agree on something, they need to put on their big girl underwear and block the idiot. He can't force them to sign on for a communal house. Of course, he couldn't force them to relocate to AZ either, but like obedient little minions, they packed up and left. Maybe they deserve to be crammed into one house. 2 7 Link to comment

The presentation of Kody in this light is IMO, the producers finally insisting on the Browns getting real. This falls in line with Aspyn and Gabe asking the hard questions, along with Meri's subtle snark about wife status. These situations would have been unheard of when the show was at it's peak, but it's do or die time now for the Browns and they will go along to keep the show going. 7 Link to comment

Our home is 3650 Sq ft and it was perfect when we had kids at home but now we're empty nesters and I hate it every time I have to vacuum, clean the various bathrooms, dust, wash floors etc... Going up and down stairs over and over to do it all. The Brown's aren't real big on cleaning so I guess that won't be a factor. I think they'd be fine with 1200 Sq ft for each wives private area and then one large common area for family get togethers and holidays. 7 Link to comment

Galloway Cave April 1, 2019 Share April 1, 2019 But the interior walls between the four units are basically like exterior walls (soundproofing, ick). And the roof in that draft has MULTIPLE elevations. They want a full basement garage; digging a basement in AZ is a nightmare, much less one that big. Although they will save on running electricity in one trench to the house, each unit will need their own breakers and (multiple) A/C units. If water has to be pumped, that means multiple wells, because one well will not serve four units at once. If it has to be hauled, each unit will need it's own tank(s). I couldn't tell from the plan, but did Kody have any other rooms other than the common area/kitchen? I guess he doesn't need anything else except a massive easy chair/lounger to lay in all day long, roaming the Interwebz. It is still four+ homes being built, just with some common walls. Flag will so not sign off on that thing. 3 6 Link to comment

Galloway Cave April 1, 2019 Share April 1, 2019 (edited) I just took a peak at the Flagstaff City limits map, and Coyote Pass is actually outside of it. So Coco County will have jurisdiction over the build and may be a bit more lenient. Could be the reason they bought there instead of Trees Hill.

laurakaye April 1, 2019 Share April 1, 2019 I don't know, they might just be able to swing one more season out of these clowns if Kody puts his foot down and insists that his wives will be sharing one house. I might just pop some corn and pull up a seat to watch those fireworks. 4 4 Link to comment
suomi April 1, 2019 Share April 1, 2019 Also, plumbing is cheaper when it's paired, or back-to-back. Kitchen sink on this wall, kitchen sink on the same wall in the next unit, bathroom here/bathroom same place on the other side of the wall. I need to look at the screen shot of the plan someone posted for us (thank you) and see how much pairing is happening. I did notice that the laundry areas are scattered, maybe they're paired with other plumbing. 1 Link to comment
