Then divorced her to marry Robyn once Christine's boys joined the military. Edited March 25, 2019 by deirdra 3 11 Link to comment

Ysabel's scoliosis has worsened two degrees (?) since her last visit, despite the expensive program she's doing, a program that seems to make her life miserable. Ysabel cries (I wish they hadn't put that on TV), and Dr. Camp says some like, We'll know in ten years if the spine is stable. Then, they casually arrange another visit in a year. On the talking couch, Christine starts bellowing about margin or error and then suddenly decides Ysabel's number is really 38 instead of 44. Granted, I was multitasking during this show, but I looked up to try to follow this segment and I couldn't. That doctor gave me GIANT creeps! Talking about how pretty Ysabel was, Kody needing a shotgun. That would be the last time I took my daughter to a doctor that mentioned how attractive my teen daughter was. I might also let it slip was a creeper he was. I was stunned. 25 Link to comment

The world doesn't cater to just one individual. Christine and Janelle survived the "horrors" of bringing children into the world without the license.

Popular Post Delete March 25, 2019 Popular Post Share March 25, 2019 (edited) Let’s hope that the draftsperson made sure the cheque cleared before drawing up the plans for the Kody Klown Brown Kompound. It gave me a headache thinking about drawing up that enormous monstrosity. In fact, it should be called the Sobbin Robyn Family Home, and Sister Wives Closets. Christine is the poster woman for DICKMATIZATION. She is beyond giddy to be the hot ticket at the moment. All I can say is they better triple the amount of soundproofing for her boudoir, because that girl is for sure yodelling, screaming and yelling like a banshee during sessy times with the Grodster. Excuse me now. I must go throw up. One of Robchin’s kids acts really bizarre. I think it is Brianna?? When Kody was giving his meeting lecture to the ‘kids’ about the move he said in his phony tone, “Aren’t YOU all excited?” The response from the other siblings was sadness or disgust except for Robchin’s kid who had this big grin, and was bouncing up and down clapping her hands like a trained seal. She’s definitely going to become a polygamist. She's got that fake "everything is fine" stepford wife act down pat. Did anyone else get majorly creeped out by Dr. Camp saying that Ysabel keeps getting more and more beautiful each time he sees her? Ew. That was unprofessional, and inappropriate. Mind you, I never hug my doctor either. I wish they didn’t show her so upset, especially worried about disappointing her Dad about the diagnosis. Poor kid.

I am a believer that, if you are a sister wife, you should each get the same thing. It would be ridiculous to build that enormous structure and, once the kids are gone, Robin is in the Queen’s wing while Meri is basically in the servant’s quarters. I also didn’t understand the argument that Robin’s rental or final size was necessary because she needed so many rooms. Each kid doesn’t need their own room, some can double up, like Robin’s older daughters. My mom grew up the oldest of four in a three bedroom house. She got her own room because she was the only girl and the three boys shared a room. They all grew up to be great people so sharing a room is not being deprived. I also do understand the need for extra rooms for guests. Let them sleep on pull-out couches or air mattresses. Let the kids double up while someone is there. 23 Link to comment
Popular Post deirdra March 25, 2019 Popular Post Share March 25, 2019 The Brown Clowns should buy a motel with ~20 rooms, several with suites & kitchens and also a restaurant area that could be used for fambly gatherings. That way they could redistribute rooms as kids move out, older kids w/partners move back, or grandma or older kids come to visit. And they could rent out empty rooms for cash when necessary. A big quonset hut out back for LulaCrap and gardening tools would be nice. I actually had cousins in a family with 8 kids, a couple of them married, who bought and lived in a motel that had been bypassed when the main highway was upgraded. 2 1 34 Link to comment

I could definitely see asking why and at her age having some irrational feelings about it, but, I just personally thought the grilling was over the top and the rude comment about how they're trying to fill a void...that's really just conjecture and pretty rude to say on national television about your own parents. Just because it's not how Aspyn does things doesn't make it wrong. Imo 28 minutes ago, Galloway Cave said: In this situation, it is King Kody making the decisions for his wives. He is the one deciding that Robyn needs 3500 square feet and Meri only needs 1500. The wives are having no say in the designingk of this house. Then again, it is all for show and drama when the wives see the plans. No one, even Kody, is serious about a plyg house. Designingk 😂😂 I really hope they go through with it. So much more interesting to watch. 2 2 Link to comment

If that is possible, then I just found my new career! Anybody here need any ugly colorful leggings? Meri has achieved either Trainer or Mentor status with LLRags, which means she also gets bonus checks from everything her downline sells. Don't quit your day job just yet, lol, the whole good ship LLR has sailed and may be drownding. 1 7 7 Link to comment

We thought it would be great to have a big house like that with a common living space in the middle, and each couple in their own private wing and then be able to help each other with our kids as well as hang out and socialise. Me too! I think that's why the one big house appeals to me so much. I'm sure I'm romanticizing it in my head but it seems like it would be really cool. I could even go for polygamy if I didn't really care about the guy. 😆 Makes sense, I know. 4 minutes ago, Sandy W said: Meri has achieved either Trainer or Mentor status with LLRags, which means she also gets bonus checks from everything her downline sells.

I know they're predatory but if she's going to do it anyway and has no other viable skills... 2 1 Link to comment
MonicaM March 25, 2019 Share March 25, 2019 After all these years, why is Christine whining about having a legal marriage? Common sense would say that she's getting up in years, and realizing that she's paid very little into Social Security. If something happens to Kootie, she could collect SS on her children until they turn eighteen, but after that, she'll be high and dry. Not to mention having no claim on any money or property that doesn't bear her name. But then she's a Brown, so common sense isn't normally a consideration. Realistically, it is most likely story line driven. She's been waaaay too cheerful and chipper the past couple of seasons, so the producers have given her a new reason to express her annoying unhappiness. She most likely would like to have the legal status for a change. But more important, this gives her a new opportunity to let the world know that polygamists face more discrimination and persecution than is bearable by most people. 4 Link to comment
Jeanne222 March 25, 2019 Share March 25, 2019 I would have loved the Aspen/Christine conversation to have been a Kody/Aspen conversation! They move because that's how restless Kody rolls! Some of the older kids have figured that out! They also move for the storyline it creates! 8 Link to comment
xwordfanatik March 25, 2019 Share March 25, 2019 Just had another thought. Mr. X wandered through the room this a.m. when I was watching the DVR'ed episode. When Christine & Aspyn were on Christine's bed talking, Mr. X said, "why is the bedpost on the right shorter than the one on the left?" He notices the small stuff that I miss, but he won't sit and watch the whole thing with me. I don't mind too much, as I have a lot of fun with my fellow snarkers here. 1 9 Link to comment

I had thought she had recruited Maddie, Mykelti and Christine but after reading about the feud I now think Maddie, Mykelti and Christine are one team and Meri is not a part of it. Still can't figure out how the 4 of them manage to sell this stuff. They are all competing for a tiny fan base / potential buyers. 4 Link to comment

They probably don't have the money to run utilities to the property to support mobile homes. 51 minutes ago, Jeanne222 said: Do you think they are still collecting welfare and food stamps with the big salaries? I ponder that because it there's a buck to be had they'll get it! Definitely not. That's fraud and they are WAY too well known to get away with it. 9 Link to comment

Who made you the boss of everyone? And yea Christine, Kody can only have one legal wife. That's the law, get over it. She's now surpassed Meri in wife I dislike the most. And, if polygamy is legalized all you second third and twentieth wives won't be able to collect welfare. Thought about that? Even worse is you can barely hear it through her "keep sweet" whisper. 5 Link to comment

I remember reading that Maddie had first gotten into LLR by assisting Meri and helping her with shipping inventory. And what feud? There's a family feud based on fugly leggings? 4 3 Link to comment

I'm embarrassed that I know this much about LLR, but to achieve Trainer status, you have to have recruited 10 or more people to your downline. I don't know if Meri brought Mykelti, Maddie and Christine on board, but her sister was at least one of her first recruits. 5 4 Link to comment
