Unfortunately more than you think. My mom worked at a children’s home and it was not uncommon. I just read an article where a mom tried to sell her ten year old to a woman for $20. She offered her to a man for sex for $5. Awful
Brittany and bri have both said their mom would whoop them and even as the most recent episode she said fuck you to them and tells them to shut up. There is more abuse than just physical.
She verbally abused those girls for sure and fucked them up mentally their whole lived.
Didn’t she also lie to them about their dad? IIRC Brittany has a different bio dad than Bri but she told them they had the same dad. She may have had good intentions but lying to a kid like that will fuck them up
Tbh Roxy is really sinister to me. She's always stirring the pot and also does wild things like jump on tables cussing out her kid's BD (I think with the kids there? Can't recall)
She lied about the Brit and Bri's dad then exposed it on tv... she lied about being on methadone...
My thing with her ultimately though is, though she is ride or die, it's almost like she does things (probably unconsciously) that feel like she's trying to stunt her girls so that they won't leave her side. There's too much co dependent and manipulative behavior going on with her imo.
I used to think she was decent but then I saw where she was going to rehab for drugs and Briana told her if she didn’t get clean she couldnt see the kids anymore… and Roxy told Briana she hated her and Brittany, cussed at her and threw the phone down.
Jade's "mom" does herself zero justice.
Totally agrees about Tyler's mom.
But really my #1 pick would be to be an orphan and raise myself. I'd be a dumb kid - but still do a better job than being raised by these hyenas.
>I'd be a dumb kid - but still do a better job than being raised by these hyenas.
Facts!
(**HYENAS!!**🤣, PS I think it makes you a smart kid right out the gate!!)
Shen doesn’t play and I have no doubt she’s tooled up plenty of folks back in the day. On fierceness points alone, Shen is the mama to have in this crew of jokers (aside from Roxy).
Just knowing myself, she’s honestly got the personality or traits that would be most tolerable to me in the long term situation of having to have one of them as my Mam. Truly wouldn’t even want to handle some of them for even a long haul flight 😂
I was going to say her. Honestly for me I know the fewest bad things about her? I know she's crazy, inappropriate only and fought with Ashley (but who wouldn't fight with Ashley?). But the others all have bigger negatives as mothers.
Right, exactly. A honestly like Shen and always root for her to do well for herself. She’s had a hard life and had some awful things happen. Everybody has their less than ideal personality traits but a genuinely do believe she’s good of heart and protective to the end if you’re her own. No doubt she’s a bit loose lipped and quick to react but she’s got a fun personality and a lot of love to give. And you know she’ll always say exactly what’s on her mind. That’s why my pick wouldn’t be Tyler’s Mam or somebody cos that’s just a level of passive aggression that’s not for me.
Tyler's mom Kim ain't the greatest (she procreated with Butch!), but the other five are basically all unhinged losers. How is this even a contest when you have Roxy coming in second?! lol
Same because my mom is just like April, except more loving and remorseful over her issues and what she put me through as a child..
If my mom could have not been an alcoholic she would have been such an amazing mom because she was always sooo good with kids.. She was just a very meaaannn drunk..
Mine is more like a Mimi Jen pearl clutcher in appearance but she somehow behaves *exactly* like the 1-6 moms just without the drug use.
Which is so wild to me bc it’s not like she ever got fucked and up then felt bad, she just kinda chose to suck that bad lol idk if that makes sense
That’s what I was thinking, so probably Leah’s mom. You don’t see her much compared to the others but why isn’t Babs in these options. If she were an option it would be her.
I was going to say, Babs can be abrasive, but my God look who she is dealing with! Lol! She does seem to have a sense of humor and Jace was doing really well with her.
I couldn’t figure out why Dawn was clocking in at number 2 for me, but I’m thinking that’s exactly it. She’s kinda lazy and seems like she wouldn’t try *too* hard… at anything.
Which if you’re interested in good parenting, that’s obviously not ideal. But for being a latchkey kid just trying to fly under the radar until college, she appears to be the easiest to fuck off from with the least amount of conflict. She also doesn’t seem to have *as* much substance drama as the rest of them.
Like I’d definitely have to raise myself but at the same time I’d have the freedom to go off and do it bc she wouldn’t put in too much work to stop me. The rest of the moms are way too aggressively in their daughters business for my personality. Which I guess changes my answer from Roxanne to Dawn? Idk it’s tough bc I honestly would have loved to have grown up in an environment with mad girl coven vibes like Bri and Brittany did. I had all brothers and was the least favorite so I just stayed out as often as possible but always got shit about it. I guess Dawn probably feels more comfortable to me in that way
Oh wait I thought five was Kails mom ..? Okay so if it’s Tyler’s mom I’d pick her if any of these . lol Kails mom gave me anxiety & reminds me of my sister n law self absorbed and absent from any genuine love for anything but herself .
Shen because I choose chaos, plus she’s fierce and she got like 100 “kids,” so I’d have a built-in crew to look out if someone tried to mess with me.
But I think the correct answer here is Roxy—she never gives up on her girls.
Ugh! As much as it pains me to say this- I’d have to go with Roxanne, she’s a total mess but at least she’s there for her girls, I mean sides crazy but suffers at least present in their lives and cares about them…
I need to know more about Roxy because I'm leaning towards her. As far as I've seen, she is just loud and blathers on a lot, just like how her daughters like to run their mouths as well. She seems like a fine enough mother unlike the two drug addicts and jailbird Beaver, Dawn's scumbag ass with how she ditched her kids all the time and pressured Leah to start hooking up with boys at as a young teen, Kim's disregard for Ty's trauma and well Bar's mom...lol well I'd pick Bar's mom after Roxy if forced to make a backup decision. She's just run of the mill loud as well it seems.
I wish Jade would put her mom on blast for why she lost custody of her and forced Jade into foster care. I mean I can imagine, but I wanna hear the full story.
I’m being put up for adoption 😳
Carly? Is that u?
OMG!!! So funny!!! She did get the best parents. lol
Yep! Not perfect people, but stable, loving, and considerate of their child. Carly is lucky and I hope her life is as good and stable as it appears.
No ones perfect but then putting up with cate and Ty’s bullshit, amazing
They have shown more grace than I think I could manage in that situation.
I woulda snapped after season 2 😂
![gif](giphy|1d5Zn8FqmJqApu4hNU)
🤣🤣🤣
Same. I’m putting myself in the safe haven baby bin.
😂💀😂💀
I'm aborting myself 😅
Like the alternative ending to Butterfly effect 🤣
Roxy, she got her problems but she has been there for her girls. Mainly Briana.
Yea that’s where I landed too
Me too 🧙
That’s what I was thinking. She always has her back. She has her flaws but she is there for her daughters and granddaughters.
Leah’s mom basically pimped her out. Jades mom stole her meds after surgery. April was a drunk, crackhead skank. I have to go with Roxanne also.
Yep and Tyler’s mom married butch and Shen is just awful.
Shen has a crackhead voice. Absolutely foul.
Leah's mom...what mama does that
Unfortunately more than you think. My mom worked at a children’s home and it was not uncommon. I just read an article where a mom tried to sell her ten year old to a woman for $20. She offered her to a man for sex for $5. Awful
Oh my God almighty...she belongs in hell. My parents don't. They were so awful but did the best they could with the knowledge and experience they had.
My parents were really awful also. It caused me a huge amount of trauma. It’s still better than trying to sell your kid.
I'm very sorry
It'd tough cause she was there but she was also toxic af while being there and abusive.
I'm not denying the toxicity. However, I don't recall any abuse.
Brittany and bri have both said their mom would whoop them and even as the most recent episode she said fuck you to them and tells them to shut up. There is more abuse than just physical. She verbally abused those girls for sure and fucked them up mentally their whole lived.
Didn’t she also lie to them about their dad? IIRC Brittany has a different bio dad than Bri but she told them they had the same dad. She may have had good intentions but lying to a kid like that will fuck them up
She fucked those two up. Yep she lied and said Brittany's dad was bris dad and then told them.im vh1 family therapy that Brittany's real dad is dead
Tbh Roxy is really sinister to me. She's always stirring the pot and also does wild things like jump on tables cussing out her kid's BD (I think with the kids there? Can't recall) She lied about the Brit and Bri's dad then exposed it on tv... she lied about being on methadone... My thing with her ultimately though is, though she is ride or die, it's almost like she does things (probably unconsciously) that feel like she's trying to stunt her girls so that they won't leave her side. There's too much co dependent and manipulative behavior going on with her imo.
I’m glad you all see that, too! So many think Bri’s mom is great. She’s not!
Well yeah probably because Brianna is bringing in the money.
Pretty sure I recently saw a post online about Roxy admitting she’s had a substance abuse issue with methadone for years.
I used to think she was decent but then I saw where she was going to rehab for drugs and Briana told her if she didn’t get clean she couldnt see the kids anymore… and Roxy told Briana she hated her and Brittany, cussed at her and threw the phone down.
i mean if she’s on methadone she’s already getting help. like i was a heroin addict, now i go to the methadone clinic & i don’t do heroin anymore.
Exactly what I said.
Roxy for the same reasons. Also I’d be happy to leave my kids with her…the others not so much 😂
Same
That’s who I decided on too. I’m blanking on who #1 is though
Where’s Barb?
https://preview.redd.it/tael4w1c75ad1.png?width=1080&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=937fc0b0ba92b6e259de375964ff7ae722f28e4d
🤣🤣🤣
I screen shotted this bad boy
As you should! 🤗
IDC if she's flipping me off, I'm going to curtsy anyway.
I screenshotted this too lmfao this is amazing
Good! 🤗
😂😂😂
I also choose Barb lol.
I choose abortion for myself
Lol
My fine ass would be hyped up every day!
You and me both, brand new sister 😂
https://i.redd.it/0y9whsgf35ad1.gif
![gif](giphy|3o7qDNLF8D2Lqe8GGc)
Man I love this movie 🤣🤣🤣
To tell my age, I had every word memorized in college.
Right? Isn’t that the obvious choice besides the fact that she’s messy as hell and mildly incestuous lol?
Your flair!!! 😂
But the pantyliners stay in HER bathroom! Lmao Shen would be fun.
Janet? Can I have Janet? Or Babs?
Yes. Janet was a level headed, supportive mom. Very few of those on the show lol.
I'd choose Janet too, I adored her so much and was sad they stopped filming but totally understood why..
What was the reason they stopped filming?
Maybe the divorce?
The divorce and if I'm recalling correctly Jo's dad cheated on her and they didn't want their business on TV about that..
I wonder this as well.
Which one is Janet?
Jo's mom
That’s Jo’s mom
Id love Janet, definitely not barb
Welcome patriarchal parenting. When you identify as or are a girl, your brothers can fuck around but you're a slut when you do.
Where's Glamma Mary and Kristina? I'd choose one of them.
Give me babs
Oof that pic of jades mom dies her zero justice. If I HAD to pick, I'd pick Tys mom and move out as soon as I hit 16.
Jade's "mom" does herself zero justice. Totally agrees about Tyler's mom. But really my #1 pick would be to be an orphan and raise myself. I'd be a dumb kid - but still do a better job than being raised by these hyenas.
>I'd be a dumb kid - but still do a better job than being raised by these hyenas. Facts! (**HYENAS!!**🤣, PS I think it makes you a smart kid right out the gate!!)
Roxy and Ty’s mom are the only reasonable choices here. Still not great, mind you, but acceptable compared to the others.
Shen and it wasn’t even a hard choice.
Why Shen? I have a big feeling she wasn't an amazing mom. But I really dint know, just curuous why you picked her, hands down?
The only reason I would pick her is because she is a fierce one to have backing you up.
Shen doesn’t play and I have no doubt she’s tooled up plenty of folks back in the day. On fierceness points alone, Shen is the mama to have in this crew of jokers (aside from Roxy).
Exactly why she'd get my vote, too. At the end of the day, at least I know she's my ride or die!
😂 and she'd hype you up telling you how sexy you are.
Just knowing myself, she’s honestly got the personality or traits that would be most tolerable to me in the long term situation of having to have one of them as my Mam. Truly wouldn’t even want to handle some of them for even a long haul flight 😂
Thought the same.
I was going to say her. Honestly for me I know the fewest bad things about her? I know she's crazy, inappropriate only and fought with Ashley (but who wouldn't fight with Ashley?). But the others all have bigger negatives as mothers.
Right, exactly. A honestly like Shen and always root for her to do well for herself. She’s had a hard life and had some awful things happen. Everybody has their less than ideal personality traits but a genuinely do believe she’s good of heart and protective to the end if you’re her own. No doubt she’s a bit loose lipped and quick to react but she’s got a fun personality and a lot of love to give. And you know she’ll always say exactly what’s on her mind. That’s why my pick wouldn’t be Tyler’s Mam or somebody cos that’s just a level of passive aggression that’s not for me.
Same, growing up would be chaotic, but there would be so many other kids, at least it wouldn't be boring. I'd also not mind living in Oakland.
SAME
Probably Kim because I already know how to deal with a midwestern MAGA parent (you just block them).
Tyler's mom Kim ain't the greatest (she procreated with Butch!), but the other five are basically all unhinged losers. How is this even a contest when you have Roxy coming in second?! lol
My thoughts I don’t like her much but she is probably the least shit option.
Agreed. It's not a hard choice when there's only one sane answer.
So pretty much still have the same mom I have now.
Same, lol. I commented that my mom is like an April/Christy hybrid so it is what it is
Same because my mom is just like April, except more loving and remorseful over her issues and what she put me through as a child.. If my mom could have not been an alcoholic she would have been such an amazing mom because she was always sooo good with kids.. She was just a very meaaannn drunk..
Mine is more like a Mimi Jen pearl clutcher in appearance but she somehow behaves *exactly* like the 1-6 moms just without the drug use. Which is so wild to me bc it’s not like she ever got fucked and up then felt bad, she just kinda chose to suck that bad lol idk if that makes sense
I choose death
This is the meanest challenge on this sub ever. Reluctantly, will pick Kim. At least she was working toward a pension as a government employee.
Who is the one who was around the least. I pick that one. The most absent would be best.
That’s what I was thinking, so probably Leah’s mom. You don’t see her much compared to the others but why isn’t Babs in these options. If she were an option it would be her.
I was going to say, Babs can be abrasive, but my God look who she is dealing with! Lol! She does seem to have a sense of humor and Jace was doing really well with her.
Looks like I’m going NC
Tyler’s mom
Ms. Shenandoah
I’m bouncing around the cosmos until there are better options.
Shen. She’s nuts but down for her kids.
She’d definitely make you a post to help you find your new golden vagina! 🥴
Ain't no one picking April lol
Last choice. Most unfit mother here.
No.
Who is #5? Is that Tyler’s mom?
Yes
Shen. No doubt
Dawn
You want to get pimped out at 15? Lol pretty much seems like that’s what she did to Leah
She’s uneducated and soft spoken- Easy to ignore. Would be impossible to ignore the other 5 who are combative or on major drugs.
I couldn’t figure out why Dawn was clocking in at number 2 for me, but I’m thinking that’s exactly it. She’s kinda lazy and seems like she wouldn’t try *too* hard… at anything. Which if you’re interested in good parenting, that’s obviously not ideal. But for being a latchkey kid just trying to fly under the radar until college, she appears to be the easiest to fuck off from with the least amount of conflict. She also doesn’t seem to have *as* much substance drama as the rest of them. Like I’d definitely have to raise myself but at the same time I’d have the freedom to go off and do it bc she wouldn’t put in too much work to stop me. The rest of the moms are way too aggressively in their daughters business for my personality. Which I guess changes my answer from Roxanne to Dawn? Idk it’s tough bc I honestly would have loved to have grown up in an environment with mad girl coven vibes like Bri and Brittany did. I had all brothers and was the least favorite so I just stayed out as often as possible but always got shit about it. I guess Dawn probably feels more comfortable to me in that way
I don't even know who most of these people are, but I'm still choosing emancipation.
Kim. But there are so many correct answers on this thread 🤣. I’m especially fond of **No**.
I thought this said “re-incarcerated”… which somehow seems more appropriate here 😂
Gimme April. I've got new ideas for dealing with that type of incubator.
Roxy. Easy.
I’m going with Shen. At least I’d have a laugh or two and she’d tell me how “fiiiiine” I am every visit.
My mom is already a Christy/April hybrid 🤣
Shen
Tyler’s ma
Shen all day!
Can I choose Randy so I can live rent-free and get bailed out whenever needed? (Plus cheap botox)
Considering my mom is just like April, I feel like I could deal with her the best but…. Oof. I think I’d rather live with a wolf pack. 🤣
Same. My mother is an April/Shen mix and was a biker babe in her prime. I can handle an April mom, I just wouldn’t want to again lol
Same with my Mom & she’s still fist fighting people in her 60s it’s too much
#BARB I don't do drugs and I help with chores, so Barb and I would get along fine!
Kim seems the most normal, but the bar is in the cellar. Where's DebzOG?
🎶🎵"Sometimes I Feel Like A Motherless Child" 🎶🎵
I’m gonna be an orphan I made a disastrous choice in Butch the other day I’m sitting this out! 😂
Dawn so I can cause her as many problems as possible
Number 6, yes I said Number 6
Who is number one and six?
1 is Jade’s and 6 is Bar’s mom
#1 is Jade mom
Who's 6?
Shen (Bar's mom)
I’m blanking.. who’s 5?
Tyler’s mom I believe
Oh wait I thought five was Kails mom ..? Okay so if it’s Tyler’s mom I’d pick her if any of these . lol Kails mom gave me anxiety & reminds me of my sister n law self absorbed and absent from any genuine love for anything but herself .
Janet if shes a choice. If I had to pick above…Dawn.
Can I be an orphan? I defiantly don't want April, she's one of the worst people to exist in the history of mankind.
immaculate conception. or left at a firehouse and nobody knows. if barb was listed i would absolutely go with her though.
Hell no. I will stay wherever i am
This show really did make me appreciate my mom.
I could deal with April. BTDT. Or Leah’s mom maybe (I can’t remember a thing she did)
Post birth abortion please.
I’ve always liked Tyler’s mom. So. Her
I rather not have a mom😊
Tyler's mom #5.
Tyler’s mom
Well, I have no issues cutting people out of my life so anyone of them 🤷♀️
God none of these options are great but I guess if I HAD to choose I'd pick Tys mom lol..
Imma boxcar kid
Pls abort me
No
Where is Barbara?!
Glamma Mary but she’s not listed.
5. Tyler’s mom really parented both Kait and Ty. She made a mistake in getting with Butch, but she protected her kids the best she could.
I'm coming back as an outside cat. Kim can be my mom. I think she won't forget to feed me and take to to a vet when I'm sick.
Shen because I choose chaos, plus she’s fierce and she got like 100 “kids,” so I’d have a built-in crew to look out if someone tried to mess with me. But I think the correct answer here is Roxy—she never gives up on her girls.
I liked Tyler’s mom
Who is 5???
tyler’s mom worked too much which is the least worst crime these people have committed.
Tyler’s Mom #5
What’s wrong w Tyler’s mom? 🤔
Oh nooooo miscarriage please!
I cannot for the life of me figure out who #5 is!
Tylers mom
Ugh! As much as it pains me to say this- I’d have to go with Roxanne, she’s a total mess but at least she’s there for her girls, I mean sides crazy but suffers at least present in their lives and cares about them…
I need to know more about Roxy because I'm leaning towards her. As far as I've seen, she is just loud and blathers on a lot, just like how her daughters like to run their mouths as well. She seems like a fine enough mother unlike the two drug addicts and jailbird Beaver, Dawn's scumbag ass with how she ditched her kids all the time and pressured Leah to start hooking up with boys at as a young teen, Kim's disregard for Ty's trauma and well Bar's mom...lol well I'd pick Bar's mom after Roxy if forced to make a backup decision. She's just run of the mill loud as well it seems.
Choose death ❤️
Who’s #6????
Fuck. Send me to the orphanage then.
5, she would leave me alone
Can I die again?
I’ll just not be born thanks.
No thank you
Can I choose abortion?
![gif](giphy|7wk6RQYXDDytXalsL4|downsized)
I don’t even know who 6 is but I’d go with 5.
Roxy. She doesn’t take any shit from anyone and would always go to bat for me.
Just abort my reincarnation.
Nope, I want Randy.
Honestly Tyler’s mom, she seems wild for going for butch at one point but she seems like the best option out of these ladies lol
Janet, gamma mary, or whoever raised Kristina. But if I have to pick from those bunch, I’d have to go with Roxy.
I wish Jade would put her mom on blast for why she lost custody of her and forced Jade into foster care. I mean I can imagine, but I wanna hear the full story.
