That is not right.Pissing the bed at 4 years old. they need to buckle down in that house or they are going to have big problems in the years to come. They dont need to be peeing their boyfriends beds when they are 16 years old. Hazel with her crazy eyes and Beet red face over the friggin Easter Bunny is some great TV. Then they all Lie about it. Real Nice. I hugged the Easter Bunny. The Easter Bunny is my Friend. 2 minuted earlier you thought they were gonna die in fear. LOL. Parker and Riley are the worst. Riley is in for some Mean Girl Texas sized Ass kickins in her future. She can steal from and boss around her weak sisters, but wait til she pulls that in school. She has some blood and black eyes in her future for sure. Friggin Parker trying to hide behind a 1 inch thick broom handle when she sees the Easter Bunny. My grandfather plays Santa in a Los Angeles area mall for 22 years now and I have been one of his helpers for over 10 years so I have seen a few freakouts when very young kids see Santa for the first time but nothing like these 5 girls.

The girls are only going to behave in a way that meets their 'needs'. If throwing a tantrum, or hiding under a bed gets them some one on one time with their parents, then have at 'er.

Maybe this is why Mimi got her realtor license in Texas just so they could help support her with their home sales. They had said in earlier episodes that the house Mimi was living in when she moved to Texas that flooded in the hurricane was owned by Ashley's husband so there would definitely be commissions to be made just within the family. However, recent Instagram pictures from Mimi's account show her working in a school again so maybe she has already given up on working in real estate. When a realtor assists in bringing someone to rent , rent-to-own or lease a house, where they are working with the owner (with or without an agent) -- don't they get a commission too? If not what's in it for mimi to talk to the owners when danielle was first thinking about staying? Mimi also closed the deal when they moved in the 1st place 6-7 mths ago. 1 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/43294-outdaughtered-general-discussion/page/45/#findComment-5684793

I don't know how it works with commissions on rent-to-own or leasing. I thought it was odd that Mimi was the go-to in leasing the new house but I figured it was just a scripted thing for the show. She may have gotten a commission for that as well though. 2 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/43294-outdaughtered-general-discussion/page/45/#findComment-5684806

MoreCoffeePlease October 18, 2019 Share October 18, 2019 I so want SuperNanny to come out of retirement and work with this family. They all need discipline. Does Blayke speak normally for an eight-year-old, or does she baby-talk for the camera? I know Danielle baby-talks the girls' names. Danielle must have been super-tired and emotional for the talking heads. I get teary eyed if I am exhausted and stressed out. Maybe she was also having her "ladies' days" (familiar to fans of Everybody Loves Raymond). 5 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/43294-outdaughtered-general-discussion/page/45/#findComment-5685007

CrazyInAlabama October 18, 2019 Share October 18, 2019 (edited) I think Mimi was just there for some homecoming event, and received her first Mum corsage (not all schools do the big Mum, and ribbon corsages.) . I think she's still doing real estate. I think the top badge is her Keller Williams badge (or whatever company she works for), and I bet the lower one is a visitor's or other ID badge, but it's hard to tell. I bet her real estate company was there for career day, or sponsored homecoming events or something like that.

And if you read about housebreaking puppies online, you feed them, and then 15 or 20 minutes later you take them outside for potty time, and reward them for going outside. You don't spank an 8 week old puppy for pooping when your butt was too lazy to take him out. I guess A & D, and TLC think people are too stupid to look at the house online, and see when they bought it. They could do thinks according to the real time it happened, and lay off the phony drama. Just have things happen when they occurred. I hope the fights between A & D are put ons, because otherwise they're getting very close to Jon & Kate Gosselin territory of constant put downs. At the vet's office the tech put down a treat, and to distract from the thermometer, and shots the vet put spray cheese on the table, when Beaux was lifted up, he became very aggressive. A food aggressive dog is not one to have near little kids who have no discipline. They should have bought an adult dog, already trained, and used to kids. It's not fair to the puppy to bring him into that house full of out of control kids. And French Bulldogs are not safe in pools, but the Busbys think him 'swimming' is a good idea? How long before he gets lets out, gets in the pool, and that's the end of him? This dog breaks my heart. You don't bring a puppy, never mind a Frenchie, into a house with five unruly four-year-olds. The puppy is probably an impulse pet store purchase, which means he's a puppy mill dog, and of questionable breeding. It is only a matter of time before that puppy bites one of the kids and is euthanized (whether right away or after they turn him into a shelter is immaterial). And then the kids learn that when you're bad, you get abandoned or put to death. What a great (not) lesson to teach the kids. Also...what happened to the bunny that was another impulse pet purchase? Did they get bored with that pet too? A million curses on TLC for promoting this. It's animal abuse, plain and simple. 9 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/43294-outdaughtered-general-discussion/page/45/#findComment-5686791
justdoit10 October 19, 2019 Share October 19, 2019 The house story was lame. They bought the pool house back in Feb and never had any intentions of returning to the mold house. They moved into the neighborhood Ashley and Nick live in. They are probably part of the class action suit against the builder, Taylor Morrison, for the old house. Hundreds of homes were affected by the mold and it kept returning with no permanent solution. IMO getting a dog was a giveaway also. Who gets a puppy at the last minute in a rental home? 2 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/43294-outdaughtered-general-discussion/page/45/#findComment-5686974
Mswldflwr October 19, 2019 Share October 19, 2019 Why is everybody so perplexed about Mimi's job or not job? I don't really know anything about the Texas real estate market. But I know several real estate agents who it's just side work for because you only get paid commission once a house sells. They can't make an actual living at just real estate so they actually have two jobs.

CrazyInAlabama October 19, 2019 Share October 19, 2019 With Mimi, I think the commission from buying the pool/rental house was substantial, and just with family connections, she's going to do pretty well this year. Then there is the publicity of doing the show, being a professional this season, and I bet some people will want her to find houses for them. If any of the Busby clan are buying properties for investment to rent out, then Mimi will get that business also. I believe Adam said Bun-Bun the bunny didn't work with the little kids, so a neighbor wanted him. Sadly, I bet poor Beaux will be the after thought, and he better stay really cute, or he'll be off to a neighbor's house too, which could actually be a good idea. 4 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/43294-outdaughtered-general-discussion/page/45/#findComment-5687167

If Mimi has finally re-found herself by working in school, which appears to be her passion / experience, and doing real-estate on the side. that is great. If she has finally re-found herself by doing one or the other profession, that is great. Maybe just by volunteering/sponsoring homecoming events as an realtor, will allow her to keep an eye on position opening, make contacts, while also being around students. Or at least finding out what she needs to do/obtain to get a position in a school setting. If she's in a full-time budgeted school position, as least now she has something on the side, should she get cut from the budget. If she still trying to find herself, then that's not so great, as its been years. I doubt she was told on the very last day of summer vacation that her position was not-renewed, as portrayed in the 1st season.
