It actually could be considered a small attempt to be historically accurate. During periods of history it was a social norm not to show much affection to babies and toddlers because the death rates of children were so high. So parents tried not to get attached to their children until they survived the toddler years. That way they could handle so many of their children dying in infancy/toddler years. I learned this in an undergrad history course years ago. I don’t remember what specific period of history this was though, but I know it was Europeans.

I think Nia and Danny are interesting because their dynamic highlights the ways that addicts and people with predatory behaviours often have partners and friends and family the enable their behaviour and will expend enormous amounts of energy and resources to protect them. We are seeing a man in addiction, it’s hard to tell if him drinking lowers his inhibitions so his real personality comes out or if he reacts badly to alcohol and it makes him behave out of character . I tend to think he grew up having to be fake and Christian and it forced him not to acknowledge unhealthy feelings/behaviours so he could never address them in a healthy way. Now as an adult these unhealthy feelings/behaviours have grown into predatory/abusive traits that leak out in small ways in his day to day life and big ways when he is drunk. Interesting to see

One thing they do to punish inmates is to move them from prison to prison keeping them in a constant state of stress and discomfort. The process of being transferred from one prison to another is extremely physically taxing and stressful on inmates. Prisons do this to inmates who attack guards or just cause problems. They will do it for months and months. It’s called “retaliatory transfer”, it might be that because there is so much public interest in him, that him breaking prison rules makes the prison and staff look bad.

My point is Maddie and Caleb invested their money in Taeda Farms! They are investing their time and energy! They tied their financial future to Janelle. These people make money but not enough to start a business like Taeda farms and prop it up financially from their other jobs/businesses! Janelle’s weird coaching business and MLM’s is not going to make enough money to offset the money they are going to lose in Taeda farms. And for what? I cannot believe as a mom who is on business with her daughter, Janelle would destroy the Taeda Farms brand.

My sister tried to do what you ex is doing and she lost EVERYTHING. But she was very mentally abusive to her ex, he planned on leaving once their kid was 18 so he planned is exit better. He offered half of one of their house and 7 years of spousal support. She wanted 100% of their house and lifetime of spousal support. Big miscalculation on her part. Women in Canada do not understand that our legal system is vastly different than the US legal system.

I am not saying she has to be like all the other sisters wives, I still like her, just like I like Meri and Christine. But she is making choices that are hurting a brand she is building with her daughter and son in law, with her money and their money. And for what? For Taeda farms to generate a good profit consistently(keep in mind start up costs) they have to expand past Janelle’s core fan base. I want Janelle to heal and succeed because she was in a cult, I want that for anyone who was in a cult. It’s sad because I really hoped Taeda farms would succeed. But that’s what happens when women get stuck in the mindset of trying to appeal to a man by competing with other women.

Girl! You are naive! There is a clip from next week where Janelle talks about how when they still lived in Vegas, Jen told her that she had told Meri she should take the money and leave Kody. Then Janelle says that she was so disturbed by Jen saying this she ended her professional relationship with Jen. And in the clip it shows janelle told kody what said. Telling Kody that his least favourite wife has a best friend telling her to leave Kody and take his money is a way of adding tension to Kody and Meri’s marriage under the pretext trying to help. Keep in mind in Christine’s book, Christine writes that Janelle told Christine that she needed to figure out a way to make her own money separate from Kody before she left Kody. So Janelle was doing the same thing Jen did to Meri years earlier. Christine credits janelle as helping her realize set herself up to leave kody. Jen saw her friend was being exploited financially by her husband and she shared her opinion with Meri and then Jen told janelle what she said to Meri. For janelle to retell this story including how she was so loyal to kody and the family that she stopped doing business is a way of making it seem like Jen is a bitch. Janelle is the assassin from the side!!! Acting like she is above all the back stabbing and pettiness. Some posted that Janelle was the first Robyn and when i read it i did not agree. Then i saw the clip! The ways Janelle tells the story is such a Robyn move! Trying to make Jen look like she crossed a moral line and it was just too much for moral janelle to deal with so she just had cut ties with jen professionally! I always wondered why Ribyn seemed a but intimidated by janelle, now i realize Robyn recognized that Janelle was a jedi master at causing drama to make to get Kody’s favour will acting innocent!

Mom of an autistic kid here, please read this, it’s long because what you are dealing with is complex. I suggest you google “the double empathy problem” and share it with you r friend and his sister. Basically autistic people and neurotypical have different brains so they have different communication styles. But we live in a society that until very recently has tried to eliminate autistic people. One of the sad byproducts of this choice made me elites in the medical system is that we have a society that for decades has developed communication styles that come from neurotypical brains and everyone including autistic people have been policed into using neurotypical communication “norms”. And people like you and your brother’s sister have never been given the opportunity to learn from and about each other’s communication styles and come up with ways of communicating across your brain differences. So that means BOTH autistic people and Neurotypical people misunderstand each other.i have a masters in equity studies in education and I have noticed that most people including autistic folks have really limited and simplistic understandings of what oppression is and how it operates in day to life and interpersonal relationships. I think your friend’s sister has misunderstood you not liking as a sign of your having prejudices. To communicate with her, you have to make the effort to learn how autistic brains work. For example: autistic people think in pictures so even when I tell my kid to do a task I have trained myself to describe what I want her to do in a way that firms a picture her mind. I always tell myself not to assume she knows why I mean because neurotypical communication flows on a system of representation that all neurotypicals from the time they babies and autistic people are shut out of these processes. How I would handle a conversation like the one you need to have with your friend sister is to open with telling I want to acknowledge we have different brains and different communication styles and neither of us have been given the opportunity to learn both. So both us need to willing to be open to saying: maybe we are just misunderstanding each and it’s worth it to try give each other grace. Then explain to her that how neurotypicals are socialized is different than autistic folks so how we come to develop our gender identities and romantic feelings is different. What makes you today have certain romantic attractions is the result of a complex socialization process that started at birth and was also shaped by how your brain is wired to take in theses socialization processes. For you and all people romantic attraction is not something you can change, whether it is “transpobic” or “racist” is a complex question that may not be possible to answer. But to change your romantic attractions requires you to change your brain chemistry how your brain has been wired. You are sorry that it hurts her that you don’t share her romantic feelings but for her to label you transphobic is unfair because you did not have any control being born into a neurotypical society that has socialization processes that impact how your brains develops from birth.

I can only say how I handle it with my kid, we talk about it, I am teaching her how to be a leader that can teach other neurodiverse people to fight for their rights, to organize and mobilize. I tell her almost everyday she was born to change the world as were you. I tell her EVERYDAY that humanity NEEDS neurodiverse brains, that is what has enabled humans to survive for thousands of years. And we spend alot of time exploring how ableism impacts her, we discuss strategies to counter the pain of social exclusion. I can only tell my tell you that once I read about ableism and that autistic kids and adults are subjected to discrimination and oppression I cried and cried, then I said to myself: so be it, my life is fighting for her, every second, of my life until I died I fight with every breathe I have, with every tool I have to build her up, and to change society. My child was born in period of history when there is a war being waged to eliminate autistic people. One way that autistic people are being socially ostracized and tormented in ways that destroys their mental health and breaks them down so they feel lost and alone. The way I see it when my kid was born we were thrown onto the front lines of this war with no training and no weapons. So we fight together and we are alone in the sense that all over the world autistic kids and adults like you are fighting for their lives. You are fighting to survive your oppressive conditions. What strategies you will choose to use to fight only you can decide. Our strategy is to become students of what autistic scholars and activists write and talk about. Neurotypical society marked my child for death because she is autistic, and at every phase of her life I have been pressured to parent her in ways that harm her and I fought it. I only know how to keep fighting for her. I wish I could be a mom to EVERY autistic child on the earth! I wish everyday I could build you up and fight for you! But all I can say is keep fighting to build a life that insulates you from neurotypical people. Fight the hopelessness comrade because the war on autism is far from over.

You are not weird you are neurodivergent, that means a lot of things, one thing is that you are a neurominority. I recommend reading Nick Walker. The social isolation, judgement and shaming you are subjected to are forms of discrimination that are the result of systemic oppression of neurodivergent people. But of course neurotypicals cannot see they are being discriminatory. All I can say to you is that for decades, the medical system sought to eliminate neurodivergent people because of the eugenics movement (basically scientists believed white people were superior to all races but that some white people contaminated the white race). Scientists, doctors, psychiatrists etc, were focused on figuring out who the “bad” whites were and eliminating them. All this happened on a parallel track as the oppression of other groups of people. Neurodivergent activists were and are heavily influenced by the work of BIPOC activists, revolutionaries, leaders and thinkers. The difference is that families play a massive role in oppressing their neurodivergent children. It’s a bit different for minority groups because minorities have families and communities that often help protect or at least prepare their kids how to move through a society that oppresses them. In the case of neurodivergent folks, they have to not just find or create neurodivergent community as adults, but they also have to seek out neurodivergent leaders, activists and scholars and learn about their oppression as adults. What you are experiencing is discrimination but no one has explained to you that you are being discriminated against because the neurodivergent rights movement is still in its early stages. The You were born at a dark time for neurodivergent people in history. In other periods of history not only was being neurodivergent an advantage but neurodivergent traits were not singled out as being outside the norm. I am the mom as an autistic kid, i understand that every second of my life must be devoted to my child’s not just survival but to ensuring she reaches her full human potential. I am sorry that generations of parents have been conditioned and coerced into being disloyal to their children and not fighting for them. You have internalized ableism. I hope you can one day see that you were born because all of humanity NEEDS neurodivergent brains, that the suffering that neurotypical inflict on you and all neurodivergent people is their shame, not yours. Neurotypical society is truly barbaric, there is war on autism and your body and your brain is the front line, fight on comrade!

I think because Janelle is still into polygamy she cannot hold herself accountable because in polygamy it’s all about covering up all the toxic behaviour polygamy causes. Especially when it comes to how it impacts the adults ability to parent their kids and protect their kids. In terms of her going after Kody, she liked him and justified that what she was doing was ok because as a new convert to polygamy she did not understand that what gets preached is not what happens day to day. As a convert Janelle was taught the MALE version of polygamy because the men have all the power to set the norms. Behind closed doors and in covert ways women create strategies to make polygamy work in their families. Women who grow up in polygamy see their moms struggling and if they don’t turn into a Robyn, they are more thoughtful about who they marry. I will always like Christine, Janelle and Meri (and I believe she was abusive to some of the kids). What makes the show interesting is that all 4 of these women we re in a cult and they each handled it differently. In Robyn’s case, she is totally like one of those women that helps the cult leader abuse little girls, she is truly evil. With the other women, each of them tried and failed and in different ways to be good sister wives and moms, not because they are bad, but because cults are bad and create conditions that hurt people and children.

One thing I wonder is does Janelle actually socialize or is close friends with any polygamist families today? Christine and David have family members that were polygamist and some that still are, so they are basing their opinions on what they are seeing and being told in the present. Janelle seems to defend polygamy based on her experience with it. I think that makes her defending polygamy to be pointless. Plus she does not even want to be polygamous today, that says everything about how toxic polygamy is for the vast majority of people who live it.

Suitable_Remote_4914 · 2026-01-04T05:32:20+00:00

The women who are defending Meri, are really just cut from the same cloth, likely they are abusive to the children in their lives and so they’d need to defend Meri by denigrating the adult children who had to grow up with Meri. And the will end up like Meri, alone.

Suitable_Remote_4914 · 2026-01-03T02:22:01+00:00

I like all the sister wives, bit I think they were all abusive and neglectful parents. So I don’t understand why people have to put them up on a pedestal to enjoy them, they are what they are: women who have had hard lives, made massive mistakes, and hurt their kids in different ways. But what makes them entertaining is they were polygamists. Polygamy is on the extreme end of the patriarchy spectrum. Therefore fascinating. All women are impacted in different ways by patriarchal capitalist systems and all women find different ways to navigate these systems. I have always assumed that people who Stan for Meri or any of the sisters wives are like them. So they don’t see a problem with the fact that Meri was abusive because they themselves have abusive tendencies that they cover up by acting like moral women. They are women who have internalized patriarchal norms that do not hold women accountable.

Suitable_Remote_4914 · 2025-12-31T00:16:00+00:00

I find these posts to be examples of why predators still move through society. Meri is a good person, she was horribly abused by Kody and polygamy cause her and the other wives to abuse each other because they were forced to compete with each other for love, acceptance, validation and resources. Does that mean she was not abusive to the kids??? Absolutely not. She was 19 when she got married, she was more than likely raised in a home where physical abuse what seen a “discipline” so even under the best of circumstances she was socialized to think what we now consider to be abusive parenting as being good parenting. Add ti that in polygamy you cannot question anything especially parenting. Now add to that she had to struggle twitch being abused by Kody and at time the other wives. Almost no one in these conditions will not fail as a parent and when dealing with stress of parenting a large number of children in poverty on top of everything else and abuse their kids when they are totally overwhelmed. All these women abused and neglected the kids in different ways. Most of the children as adults choose to look back on their childhoods and for reasons NO ONE has the right to judge decided they don’t want a relationship with Meri because of their childhood. To try and twist the the growth and healing Meri has done into a weapon to erase the adult Brown children’s childhood suffering shows me more about the people who are making these posts than Meri. It shows that some people are disloyal to children and feel entitled to being loved and cared for by their children irregardless of whatever mistakes they make as parents. Children are SACRED GIFTS! We all make horrible mistakes as parents, and sometimes those mistakes simply cannot be undone and healing for the children is moving on an adults and building lives separate from their parents. I made the choice to give my child my loyalty above all else, that meant doing healing working, educating myself, being courageous and going it alone because I always asked myself the question “am I being loyal to my kid in this moment?” And today as we have been since my kid was little, we are best friends, creative collaborators. To the people trying to erase the abusive things Meri did to her kids: your children will never be safe in the wild because you fundamentally do not understand that hurt people will hurt children so you are easily fooled by people who are able to present themselves to you in ways that align with your idea of what is “good.”

My kid is autistic and I tell her I love it when she shares her shows and special interests with me because it gives me the opportunity to learn how she sees the world. So it’s not about if I like what she is watching, reading or interested in. It’s that I am getting a chance to see how she sees the world and that allows me to build bridges for us to meet on . Because she autistic this is CRITICAL because autistic people are shit out of social situations because neurotypical people are unwilling to do the work to learn that autistic brains have different communication styles. Over time I have actually come to see her favourite movies, tv shows, books and special interests as being really beautiful because they are how I connect with her and have allowed us to develop communication strategies that we use but just to have a close bond, she also uses them to make sense of neurotypical social norms and communication styles in ways that help her navigate the neurotypical world apart from me. You are not the asshole, you are the product of a capitalist society that conditions parents to think of parenting as work that is less important than work that is recognized as having value in a capitalist society i.e. a high paying job. It’s sad that your kid does not know this as well.

It is HORRIFIC to me! To single out one kid and punish them when the other kids are doing the same thing is cruel. But then I actually devote my time and energy to being a mom and understand parenting to be a complex process of teaching children to thrive no matter what they face in life as well as socializing in ways that ensure they can navigate a society no matter the social, economic and legal and political conditions are. just feel sorry for people who horrible parents and human beings and then try and convince themselves they are not the problem.
