ABSOLUTELY!  This show has done such a disservice to these children.  Don't even get me started about Anna.. You are always right, Mrs. Hanson!!

Thank you again, and yes I know I have been candid over my past struggle with addiction and that was so frusrating to watch.  Every. Single. Codependent. Woman. EVER!  thinks she is the one to love it out of him, cure him, whatever and it will ALWAYS end in heartache.  And you wanna do that to yourself?  Go ahead.  Now you have two kids who are footing YOUR emotional bill.  She will need to address this someday, in therapy and admit her error and apologize to them but that will never happen.  Ever.  It will be the giant elephant in not just the room, but their lives.

Until recently, I've thought Tiffany handled the mean comments the best. She just ignored them. Now, she appears to be trying a Pole/Karine or Ashley/Jay and doing the fake break ups and get back togethers. Some of the break up posts have been posted here, but most everyone just shrugged it off and lost interest immediately. Tiffany and Ronald gave proof to that Youtuber Something Crystal Ball, but I didn't watch it because she drives me nuts. 

Tiffany took offense to the next IGer accusing her of just trying to drum up attention for a new season, and the bitchfest takes place in the next four IG posts. The first one is only one slide and is what started it. 

Multiple slides

I'm excluding a bunch of the posts about her drinking while pregnant, the dangers of it, Fetal Alcohol Syndrome, her bad decision making to marry Ronald a week out of rehab and immediately have a child, etc. We've all said it here before. She took exception to the comments about her drinking, so someone sent the proof.

Tiffany responds:

In response Tiffany's mother said, this is paraphrased by the IG source, "Now the mother texted me to say a whole different story! She said that it wasn’t that she was drinking! She said that it was to confuse people so they wouldn’t know that she was pregnant!"

Her mother thought she was a virgin and didn't realize she was pregnant up until delivery, sooooo, maybe she's not that observant. In any case, Tiffany must have dropped the non-alcoholic lie. 

[USA is tearing AUS apart in Sevens! I can't type and watch at the same time. Wonder if Tiffany will share a beer...]

EDIT: Here is the post sent by Tiffany's mom to the person I mentioned above. It's all a big whatever, get your stories straight, but I figured I'd add it.

I couldn't bring myself to care about Tiffany or Ronald. So mach typing! I'd rather see Danielle.

Doesn't Tiffany have young children to care for?!  How is she in social media all day?!

That's really a Your Mileage May Vary / Can't Please Everyone issue. These people all make their living on social media, so that is where everything plays out. 

When something is posted with a link, no one clicks on them and then someone will say they saw something funny and people will ask them point it out when it was already linked. I, for one, tend to have several tabss (and even browsers) open at once and to open another link is hardly worth it, especially for these dumbasses, and like it when I can see it in one place. In the Teen Mom forums people post the links and the articles so we do not have to go to the actual page and I appreciate it immensely. Especially when it's on Radar because my browsers/ad blocker/firewall hates that site and lock my computer up.

One of my biggest pet peeves about this site is how I'll be reading a comment or typing a response and suddenly the IG posts load and the page scrolls by making me have to go back and find my spot again. That pet peeve is only surpassed by the ads making the forums unreadable and/or make multiquote option disappear. I can fix that by using a adblocker, but try not to on sites I use often, like this one. I can't even report an ad because they all do it sometimes and not others.

To combat the page scroll, I try to post the IGs under spoiler tabs so that it saves room on the screen and doesn't reload as annoyingly on second view. However, for some odd reason, sometimes it will not embed in a spoiler tab and sends the IG or Tweet to the top of the page. Also, no one clicks on the spoiler tab to read the posts and ask for people to post it later. There is also a sometimes issue of the IGs posted in spoiler tabs not allowing you to click the arrow to move to the next slide or play the video, like you can when it's on the page, and instead sends you to Instagram, opening a new tab and making people not bother to read through. 

The only certainty in this equation is that the dumbasses will continue to be stupid online and people will continue to collect it for the rest of us to laugh at, and we will all be annoyed at the castmembers and how the site loads.

I love it when it's in the thread because I want to just see what the person is talking about without clicking links and traveling to sites that I'm unfamiliar with and sometimes the links don't work but if it's in the thread there's never a problem..... so my vote would be to keep putting it in the thread please 👍❤️

Ugh, sounds as if these two chucklefucks have taken a page out of the "Ashley and Jay:  Let's Pretend We're Trying To Work Shit Out So We Can Get Another Run at the TLC Teat" handbook.

It worked for what, one or two extra seasons for Ashley and Jay?  

I give zero fucks about Ashley and Jay and less than half a fuck about Tiffany and Ronald.  

I hope they're weren't given another opportunity to be regular cast members on another season.  If TLC feels compelled to use them (ugh), I hope they're relegated to one of their app streaming episodes and not the regular cable show.

This is what annoys me about people like Tiff and Ron.  They desperately seek another chance to be on a reality show.....after spending months defensively whining that they have been horribly misrepresented on said show and no one should believe what they saw on the show or judge them based on the show because it's all so unfair and inaccurate.  

Its unfair to judge Bryan Cranston for what Walter white did because breaking bad was a scripted drama. 

But this is a genre called reality television so people are supposed to believe what they see with their eyes.  And no one wants to see happy, normal people living their lives on reality TV....they wanna see a shit show trainwreck.  These participants are getting paid to be trainwrecks.....and then when people confront them about being messy trainwrecks suddenly they are defensive and dismissive. 

And then!  They want a spinoff or another season?  WTF?

@Christina, I’ve been suggesting on the Live Chat board that Duck Duck Go is a better browser to use for this. No ads. And you can clear everything by hitting the flame icon on the bottom of the screen.

And I love your posts and research!

[Christina]

The break-up/make-up drama is ongoing. Tiffany is in SA with the baby to visit Ronald, but Daniel stayed behind because he is in school. That's a positive. 

There are six slides here where she answers some questions about their break up. I'm sure they are still angling for a spot on HEA.

Would not be surprised.  Nor would I be surprised to learn this possible reconciliation came on the heels of a phone call asking if they'd be interested in future 90DF seasons.

I'm actually surprised she hasn't dumped both kids on her mom and left for SA herself to try and get more camera time.

Yeah, she is a nag, but he is such an ass that it's hard to find him sympathetic.  I also don't appreciate her being super defensive about people calling her out on her shit.  

She wants the money and perks associated with putting her shitty life choices out there on national TV but she gets upset when people call her out on her shitty life choices.  

Pffffft, girl bye. If you don't want fans to call you out on your shit you don't need another season.

Agreed - and just to be clear I can't stand him either.  Stealing from your mom?  And being being semi proud about treating his employer less than honorably after stealing from him?  I still call total BS on the "wellness center."  I want to know what kinds of therapies, exactly, they are doing.  Because no one encourages anyone to get married, and let alone encourage having a baby that soon.  

You put yourself out there with your questionable choices - in this day and age you are gonna get hammered.  And she did!  (They did)

Just watched the What (The Fuck) Now for this crew. There is no hope for this couple.

Carley is the spitting image of Ronald’s mother. Tiffany still insists upon wearing those dreadful cold shoulder tops. Poor Daniel will one day realize that his mother ruined his life. Ronald looked like he can barely hold things together.

Daniel turned ten. This is from Ronald and the last thing on Tiffany's IG was for a box meal service five days ago.

They were in the casino where Tiffany's dad stayed when he flew in to SA for her wedding. Locals nailed her on the photos and asked if she knew he was a gambling addict. It was quite funny.

Here's Tiffany's birthday post with several photos. There is something genuinely kind about Daniel, and it shows in his photos

Moving to South Africa would be sacrificing on behalf of her kids, and she's not willing to do that. Gross.

I thought she said the opposite - that there are more opportunities for her children in the US and that's why she wants to live there with them. So why she chose to marry and make a baby with a man who has a slim chance of coming to the US legally is a mystery to me. 

[CrazyInAlabama]

There is no way in hell that Ronald will ever come to the U.S., and Tiffany always knew that.   In my experience (I've worked with a lot of green card holders, and naturalized Americans over the years), Ronald won't even get a visitor visa.   The fear is that once someone who can't immigrate comes here to visit, they will never leave.   I know several people who had relatives on the immigrate to the U.S. visa list, and they couldn't even visit.  

My understanding is that South Africa is not easy to get a work permit, even for a foreign spouse.     I think it takes a long time, and I doubt that there is a shortage of makeup artists.   

Tiffany just wants to rub Ronald's nose in the fact that he's a criminal, and gambling addict (and I suspect more addictions too), and she's going to be his prison warden, not his wife.      Look at how nasty she was when he wanted a car part, and she 'accidentally' left the credit card at the house.  

Tiffany had a kid with someone who will never come to the U.S., has no way of getting custody, and will never get to keep the daughter.   She also has what passes for reality TV fame, has been on a full season of the Other Way, plus extra appearances.   People have parlayed their questionable fame into doing videos for sponsors, internet social media profit making postings (no I don't know how that works).     In her mind, she's a star.   Her son and daughter will pay the price for her lust for fame.

It's all very simple.  The more Instagram or YouTube followers you have=a large audience.  Companies will sponsor someone to hawk their products on Instagram and/or YouTube and that translates into dollars.  If you have a million YouTube followers that means potentially a million people will see my product that I pay you to endorse.

That is what she wants - to have the upper hand ALWAYS.  I tried to tell her "You didn't cause it, you can't control it, you can't cure it" but, nope, she has SUPER LOVE that will cure him, dammit!

Tiffany has a very high opinion of herself.  Why I’m not sure.  She has a ten-year-old son but still leeches off her mother.  The son’s father is out of the picture (first by agreement, later by death) and she is doing her utmost to make sure that her daughter’s father has no role in her life.  But hey keep rocking the cold shoulder tops and speaking slowly like you are talking to a moron.

She is a pretty girl and she does good makeup but I always wonder how she comes by her superiority complex.  I guess when it's Ronald, it's pretty easy to feel superior if you've managed not to steal your mother's refrigerator and embezzle from your boss and then extort him to get out of having charges pressed against you.

If I could give you more praise for this I would. I am forever in awe of all the people on FB who are wishing happy birthday to their grandkids, and children but especially grandkids who are clearly too young to read and or do social media. (and of course, have to post every meal they make and every gift they have received........forgive me as Mother's Day was just a few days ago). I don't do any of that and my kids rarely do as well .I wonder what my FB friends must think about how horrible a mom I must be not to get my praise address on FB for the masses.

@RealReality, please teach a course on this TO PEOPLE THAT WILL LISTEN.  Please, they can't fully give consent so please stop it.  As much as I dig Loren and Alexi, I wish she would stop with the dailies of their son.  I will take it one further - they probably don't express these feelings as much as they want us to think in real life  - all for show.  My kids are almost 21 and 22, and I rarely post pics of them on my FB.  (In all fairness, I rarely post anything, lol) but if I do, I ask their permission.  Believe it or not, Tiff, Ronald, etc, not everyone wants/NEEDS to share their lives 24/7.

Its bizarre right?  Does Daniel have to check social media in order to know how his mom feels about him?

It just ooges me out.  Back in the day you used to take a few pics for the personal memories, now people take a million pics so they can put them on social media and get some sort of validation from complete strangers.

I agree and people can be so mean, even when it comes to babies and kids.  My kiddos were born in 1997 and 1999, WAAAAY before social media and thank goodness for that.  I would not have been a sharer (is that a word) as all those people out there don't know my sons, and to be more blunt:  You are not special enough to "meet" them this way.

I don't need any validation to tell my my kiddos are special, handsome and meaningful to me.  I tell them all the time, lol.

Another off topic bug of mine?  Please stop going to cemeteries and taking selfies of you and (fill in the blank.)  I do not need Gramma's headstone showing up in my feed.  What am I supposed to say?  "Sucks she is gone, see you at the BBQ!"  Memorial Day is coming up.....get ready, peeps.

Again, bizarre.  Why do you need the world to know you miss your grandma?  It just seems like sharing feelings that should be personal and private.  I guess if you're posting pics if  a headstone for your family members?  But it all just feels so public, it's weird.

I feel so sorry for those two kids.  Especially, Daniel.  He appears to really love Ronald and that love appears to be reciprocated.  The little girl will never know her father.  What kind of mother does that to her kids?

I really wish Ronald would sue for child custody just because Tiffany is so vile in what she says to him and about him.  As her father, he has just as much right to her as Tiffany.  She kept going on about how "she's an American!"  I don't know (and I'm not going to look it up), but she's probably South African as well.

This is probably why (subconsciously) she's chosen an addict to be with, because she can always be the "righteous" person in the relationship.  Whatever she is or does, he's the bad one in comparison who can't be trusted.
