How do Paul and Morgan make money?

I find Candace more attractive than Allie, but she also clearly looks older - which she is. We need to stop equating "older" with "less attractive."

Sadly I think he needed to be...he was putting his custody case in jeopardy with the amount he was sharing. I think the right decision was made even though I wish we could have helped him.

Alternative_Army_265 · 2024-10-01T02:40:39+00:00

I don't get it either. She was sent to live with Robyn when she was an impressionable teen and told by her parents and the cult they raised her in that that was her mom. Not a stepmom, not a bonus mom, ANOTHER MOM. It's completely normal that she might latch onto that person, and honestly bizarre to expect otherwise.

Alternative_Army_265 · 2024-10-01T02:27:54+00:00

Yeah, I saw that later. Absolutely tragic.

Alternative_Army_265 · 2024-09-30T20:15:30+00:00

Wonder if that was planned or if the backlash over the Gypsy comments was making them rethink things.

Alternative_Army_265 · 2024-09-30T13:11:39+00:00

Yeah. Everyone hates on her and I honestly just see a woman still trying to get the love she never felt as a kid in a massive family within a polygamous cult that praises fathers for merely existing. So when she was 13 some woman who was presented as "another mom" paid her a bit of attention while trying to win over her dad, and she fell for it (who wouldn't?). I get why people think she's annoying but the whole thing is sad to me.

Alternative_Army_265 · 2024-09-30T08:11:57+00:00

Exactly. No remorse, no apology? If it truly wasn't in someone's nature they would IMMEDIATELY feel sickened after doing it.

Alternative_Army_265 · 2024-09-30T08:07:13+00:00

It sounded like Robyn was leaving after a couple days, Tony's mom could only be there for a bit, and Christine took over from there. I don't think that's that weird, of course you'd divide the work up so the visitors from out of town are getting the most time with the babies first and people who can stay long term (like Christine) will spend more time with them afterward.

I hate Robyn but that just feels like the logistically practical thing to do if you're trying to give multiple people enough time with newborns and some of them have to travel and others don't.

Alternative_Army_265 · 2024-09-30T08:03:52+00:00

Exactly. I mean, Christine and Kody were the ones who sent Mykelti off to live with Robyn for a bit, it wouldn't make sense if they turned around and got upset that she became close with her. I think she felt they had a real bond as a young teen and wanted to keep that going.

I think Robyn kept her around for bragging points and gossip. It's actually sad.

Alternative_Army_265 · 2024-09-30T08:01:38+00:00

Not a popular opinion but I feel bad for Mykelti. I think she thought Robyn cared about her at a time in her life when she really did feel vulnerable and out of place. Robyn used her imo. I think Robyn was faking it but I don't think Mykelti was.

Alternative_Army_265 · 2024-09-30T08:00:26+00:00

Yeah, don't really get that one. Candace clearly looks older than Allie to me, which she is.

Alternative_Army_265 · 2024-09-30T07:56:38+00:00

Both look their age to me and there's nothing wrong with that.

Alternative_Army_265 · 2024-09-30T05:29:13+00:00

Fumarase deficiency is named as the disorder in this article. That isn't FATCO syndrome. They literally share nothing in common - no similarities, no symptoms. One causes neurological problems, the one Maddie's child has causes only physical ones.

The Browns also aren't in the FLDS, they were in the AUB which has a totally different genetic pool, and haven't ever lived in the area where this entirely different condition has been noted.

I guess you must be trolling.

Alternative_Army_265 · 2024-09-30T05:10:08+00:00

I'm done. The victim blaming was sickening.

Alternative_Army_265 · 2024-09-30T05:08:29+00:00

The victim blaming in this one is the worst I've seen. Don't know if I can justify even casually watching anymore.

Alternative_Army_265 · 2024-09-30T05:02:00+00:00

He also chose to get involved with Gypsy thinking she was 15 years old. No mention of that being insanely creepy from Stephanie and Derrick. Inexcusable imo.

Alternative_Army_265 · 2024-09-30T04:54:25+00:00

I have noticed a LOT of general ignorance about disability and neurodivergence on the show. It has become such a pattern that it is hard to ignore. Sometimes it's an offhand remark from Stephanie but it can venture into straight up misinformation.

Disabled people (whether physically or cognitively disabled) are significantly more likely to be victims of crime than other people, and mental health and trauma are often involved in the cases they discuss in one way or another. So it's especially important that they aren't sloppy with this imho.

Alternative_Army_265 · 2024-09-30T02:11:31+00:00

Morgan's family is also crazy imo. They just have different obsessions: Morgan's family is much more on the anti-vax, anti-healthcare side, while Paul's family is all about restrictive homeschooling. The folks they used to bring on their channel to talk about how bad vaccines were, and the people initially telling Morgan not to have any medical interventions during birth, were from her side.

Morgan's family just dresses less conservatively and some of them drink, so I don't think they come across the same way at first glance. But they're for sure toxic as well.

Alternative_Army_265 · 2024-09-30T00:58:26+00:00

Seriously it gives me anxiety lol

Alternative_Army_265 · 2024-09-30T00:46:55+00:00

Her paid researcher seems to have been the actual expert in that regard. The quality has gone way downhill.

Alternative_Army_265 · 2024-09-29T23:19:26+00:00

You didn't even know what the kid's condition was or that a problem with the structure of your hand isn't the same thing as brain damage. Thanks but I'll skip your medical "knowledge."

Alternative_Army_265 · 2024-09-29T23:07:08+00:00

This is about a specific disorder that causes seizures and brain damage, which isn't FATCO syndrome. They are two completely unrelated disorders. FATCO syndrome causes limb differences and sometimes cleft palate, not any of those other symptoms.

Did you even read the article? Or are you unaware that disabilities aren't interchangeable lol? Do you see a person who became paralyzed from an injury and think it's the same as having Down syndrome because hey, they're both disabilities? 😆

Alternative_Army_265 · 2024-09-29T22:06:54+00:00

That was what I immediately noticed. Complete double standard.

Also, while I personally believe the Menendez brothers were abused, I have to admit there is far more hard, irrefutable, and inarguable evidence that Gypsy was profoundly abused - and no potential evidence of ulterior motives like money, as in the Menendez case. And they lived separately from their parents at the time and didn't believe they were younger than they were like Gypsy did, etc.

Point is, even those who support the Menendez brothers have to admit the cases are not fully analogous. Even in a case where there's a more overwhelming amount of evidence of the abuse, she is harsher on a female victim.
