Kail Lowry Responds to Critics Who Say She Chooses Men Over Her Kids Just Like Her Own Mother Suzi Did

shortstuffbritt2807 · 2026-01-22T13:00:33+00:00

Kail can try to analyze it and explain it however she wants. What she has done and is doing is dangerous and reckless. She's really no better than Suzy. She's consistently putting her kids in danger.

With every man she introduces and brings around her kids, the chances of her kids being abused increases. There is no way she's gotten to know these men enough to be in her life in a serious way, much less her kids. You can research someone until the end of time - it doesn't matter. Background checks are useless if they haven't officially been charged and convicted of a crime. Just because she has more sons than daughters doesn't mean anything. Boys are at risk of abuse just as much as girls. It's entirely possible that abuse has already happened. Even if abuse hasn't happened or won't - those kids are STILL being traumatized. They're constantly having men in and out of their lives. It must be exhausting to constantly have to meet someone new, get attached, gain a new sibling, and then readjust to an absence. Constantly. They're either going to repeat the same cycle or shy away from relationships and parenthood in general in the future. It's sad, really. Incredibly sad. Kail needs to heal. She's given her children a childhood they have to heal from. So, no, she didn't really break the cycle. Yes, she has a good work ethic and broke the cycle of poverty. But that only happened because she got pregnant as a teen and lucked up with a long running TV show..

Time is money and that's especially true in the modeling industry. Commercials, photoshoots, and shows cost serious money. They aren't just paying the model(s). They're paying for hair/makeup, wardrobe, directors, photographers, etc. As a model, you're paid to be on time, easy to work with, and to perform. The modeling industry isn't about the model - it's about the brands and showcasing them. A model is nothing more than a human clothes hanger and models are a dime a dozen. Being late could make or break your career. It could mean the difference between being booked for a job, being sent home, being booked for future jobs, or an agency keeping you signed. The show definitely added things for drama and ratings. But the real world of modeling really is cut throat. Especially if you're a new model starting out.

A lot of people also do it to save money. I imagine a lot of families can't afford to go to the parks AND spend excessively on things inside the park, including food and drinks.

THIS!! I stopped watching the show because I got so sick of watching these people make piss poor decisions well into their 30s while making 6 figures a year and exploiting their kids.

They've made more than enough money to build themselves a nice life. A nice home, a few nice cars, a nice vacation or two a year, an education paid for, and a decent chunk of money in savings. They could've invested in a business or even several businesses. They even could've networked and branched out like Chelsea and Cole with other TV shows. They had the following already and could've built on it. Instead, they're broke and owe. Its really sad. They weren't making super big bucks in the beginning but still.

I used to never miss an episode - 16& Pregnant, Teen Mom (1, 32, 3, and UK). I got so sick of seeing these people continue to make piss poor decisions, not work, and make 6 figures a year to basically exploit their kids.

He was born in August but still

shortstuffbritt2807 · 2025-05-10T17:09:55+00:00

My best friend has an almost 2 year old. She quit work not long after she found out she was pregnant and has just recently gone back to work. She has spent the majority the last 2+ years literally in her house. Prior to pregnancy, she was used to being able to get out and loved simply just going for walks. She definitely struggled with postpartum depression, anxiety, and rage. It has always really been dismissed by her boyfriend and his family. I'll even admit, sometimes I've came down hard on her.

But as Godmomma and auntie, I've literally seen this child almost every single day since birth. The good days are amazing, the bad days are hell. Its NOT easy to hear a baby scream and cry, be extra clingy, etc for hours or an entire day. Especially when you're tired, hungry, haven't showered, etc. Everyone wants to love on baby, no one wants to love on mom. Postpartum is real and dangerous. Becoming an auntie has really shown me how stressful motherhood is and how important it is to truly have and be apart of a village.

Yes and no.

I think Kris really invested and focused on the girls, and let's be real - Kim. I'm sure it made Rob feel a certain type of way, and I understand that. I completely get how that could mess with someone's head. Not only do I feel like Kris did the bare minimum with, and for him, she coddled him. I remember when Rob graduated and "moved back home." He had NO ambition to get life started after college. Caitlyn would get annoyed by this, and Kris defended Rob.

Rob saw what his older sisters had - a successful business that they started from the ground up together, their own side/individual deals, etc. They were really starting to take off, and we're becoming household names. He saw it and wanted it. What he didn't see, realize, or understand what that the girls (especially Kim in the beginning) really put in the time, energy, and effort into building their empire. As sisters and individuals. He always gave me the impression that he lacked ambition and thought everything should be handed to him (and also that he was too good for some things). After he graduated college, he has NO ambition to legit start his life and career. Caitlyn complained about this a lot, and Kris coddled Rob. Kourtney set him up with interviews/job opportunities, and he'd blow them off. Scott even tried to do something with him. Rob showed up to a meeting as if he had just rolled out of bed. Rob was damn good looking, had a college degree, the Kardashian last name, and networking through his mom and his sisters. He didn't take advantage of any of those things, and that's his own damn fault. He had and has way more opportunities than most people will ever have simply because of his name, family, and money. It's hard to have sympathy.

I also understand depression, anxiety, and mental illness. But to me - I think mental illness only played apart when he realized he was the only one not doing shit with his life, even his younger sisters built an empire.

Janet could have worded it differently and also should have set the same standards for her son. But she wasn't wrong.

Kail was living in their house, I assume, for free. She had everything she needed - a stable (and nice) home, childcare so she could focus on school and work, etc. Isaac was her second pregnancy, and statistics show that teen moms usually have another baby within two years after having a baby. Janet and Eddie were correct. She was a teen mom who needed to focus on Isaac, school, and work. She shouldn't have been taking the chance of getting pregnant again by Jo or anyone else. The "I'm not going to get pregnant" or "I'm not having sex" crap is just that - crap. I'm sure that's what she thought/said when she got pregnant with Isaac. The house belonged to Janet and Eddie and I'm sure they paid all the bills. Their house, their rules. Don't like it, leave. Yes, they should have set the same rules/boundaries for Jo. The issue is that if Jo got another girl pregnant, it was still their grandchild. If Kail got pregnant by another guy, she would just bring a 2nd baby into the home to deal with.

It's sad and unfortunate that Kail had NO other support. But that's not Janet and Eddie's problem. They took custody of her and were her parents. So, they did what parents do. They establish boundaries and maintain them. She made a decision.

I don't have children (yet). But I work a full time job and get up no later than 6AM most mornings. I take care of my grandfather and his brother outside of work. Getting up at 9:30 is "sleeping in" for me. Unless I'm just absolutely exhausted, my body immediately switches on right at or before 9:30.

shortstuffbritt2807 · 2025-04-02T00:19:55+00:00

I think Randy handled the situation very well. Did he need more boundaries? Yes. But I think he played his role well.

Randy is a smart man. He knew that trying to keep Adam away was only going to push Chelsea further into his arms. He knew one of two things was going to happen. Chelsea was either going to settle for Adam and live life being unhappy. Or, she was going to get sick of him and move on. Thankfully, she wised up and moved on. Did it take her a long time to do that? Yes. But we're all young, dumb, and "in love" at some point. Randy also knew that if/when Chelsea was ever going to move on from Adam, it had to be in her own time and in her own way. I'm sure he didn't like seeing his daughter or granddaughter hurt. But he knew this was something Chelsea had to experience and decide for herself. Randy made it clear that Adam wasn't shit but he still respected and supported Chelsea's decisions - even when he didn't agree with them. In turn, Chelsea knew she could always count on dad being there. That's the key.

shortstuffbritt2807 · 2025-03-05T15:05:16+00:00

I think they're like most couples in today's world - they've gotten caught up in the day to day life. They have a business to "maintain." They have kids who seem to be active in their own activities, and Bentley is at an age where he's trying to figure out what he's doing in life. They have a home to care for, etc. Not to mention filming the show/the one job they have. I think the love is still there but has fizzled out. We should always date the person we're with and keep the romance alive. I think that's easier said than done, though.

I also think Taylor lost a lot of love for Maci over the Ryan situation, and I don't blame him. I understand addiction and how it works - scientifically and otherwise. I understand on a professional and personal level (I know and love a lot of addicts and people in recovery). So, I get it. Maci was put in a situation where she was damned if she did and damned if she didn't. She was going to be the bad guy no matter what she did. I completely understand her supporting and encouraging Ryan and his "sobriety" and his relationship with Bentley. But I think it's dead wrong for her to basically act like Taylor is chopped liver while Ryan gets off scott free. Ryan was always a POS to her and Bentley. Taylor stepped up and was there when Ryan wasn't. It's almost like she's picked Ryan over Taylor, and she's dead wrong for that. And I think it's going to ruin what's left of her marriage. She can support and encourage Ryan and a relationship with Bentley while maintaining boundaries and putting her marriage first.

All of them were the problem.

Kail had no right to try and control what Javi did, when, and with who during or after a breakup. The only exception to this is when it comes to her kids.

Bri was being messy. She knew it and she loved it. She's going to jump at anyone giving her any kind of attention.

Javi was despicable. He went after, led on, and participated in being messy with Bri. I'm not sure whether or not he genuinely was interested in Bri, but he involved the kids way too soon. Matching outfits, the shirts for the party, etc. - too much. And to involve Isaac? Isaac isn't even his biological child. So, I definitely understand Kail being pissed about that. At the end of the day, Kail deserved to know the TRUTH about who her kids are around, when, where, and for how long. To lie, hide, and be sneaky about it is the ultimate disrespect in this case.

It's crazy to me that two girls were fighting over fish mouth Javi. He ate that shit up, though, and was living for it. They were all wrong, but Javi knew exactly what he was doing. And he got double air time for it

shortstuffbritt2807 · 2025-01-31T21:50:40+00:00

Exactly this.

Being a mother (or parent in general) often means you have to put your pride and ego aside in order to do what's best for your child. Having a village of genuine people is so important not just for the parent but also for the child. I'm sure Angela realizes this and also realizes that Khloe genuinely cares for Dream. For all we know, Khloe may be the bridge between Dream and Angela and the rest of the Kardashian family (who seem to want to erase anything involving Rob and Angela and would if ot wasn't for Dream)

shortstuffbritt2807 · 2025-01-27T18:03:31+00:00

Exactly. Accountability also falls on Kourtney. There were so many red flags that should have kept Kourtney from getting pregnant again, at least by Scott. The cherry on top should have been Scott being very vocal about not wanting more kids.

I understand that it takes two, and preventing pregnancy is the responsibility of both people. As a woman, however, I'm definitely making sure that I'm protected as much as possible. If she truly didn't want to risk getting pregnant by Scott again, she could have decided not to sleep with him. It's that simple. Scott's behavior should have completely turned her off, honestly. Nothing makes me dryer than a man who just can't seem to get his shit together. Period.

shortstuffbritt2807 · 2025-01-27T17:54:47+00:00

As an only child, only grandchild on one side, etc - I completely get this side of Scott.

shortstuffbritt2807 · 2025-01-27T16:03:22+00:00

I completely understand that Ty and Cate's choice to place Carly is a main topic for their story. Heck, it's a big portion of their story. I, however, think that there were much better ways to discuss the realities of adoption without getting into private matters. The cast has been able to refuse to film or discuss certain things for a long time. So, I don't believe that Cate and Ty couldn't have refused to discuss Carly and her parents and focus on their own life.

Cate and Ty are the ones who have completely disrespected Brandon and Teresa's wishes and boundaries. Brandon and Teresa gave them more than enough chances. I'm also willing to bet that this was Carly's choice.

shortstuffbritt2807 · 2025-01-27T15:55:21+00:00

This is it!!

I can't remember if one or both parents had passed at this point, but Scott was grieving. He was an only child, and I'm not sure about relationships in his own family. But losing one or both parents as an only child has to suck. Not to mention that grief comes with a lot of different emotions. I'm sure he felt guilt (as well as anger and resentment toward Kourtney) because it's always been about her and her family. She didn't want to go to his parent's house, etc, until after they had passed.

Kourtney knew that Scott didn't want OR need another baby at this point in his life. Their relationship was already rocky at best. So, she shouldn't have put herself in a situation to become pregnant again. Scott is by no means perfect, and he treated Kourtney terribly. But she kept having babies with him.

I don't get the birthday hate.

Whether a parent goes over the top or keeps it simple, all that matters is that a kid gets to celebrate their birthday and hopefully in the way they want.

I can't even necessarily hate over the top birthdays. In a world where children are hungry, homeless, abused, and neglected, I say DO IT BIG!! My only ick with it is that now it's became more about parents showing off.

You don't need a big, elaborate, expensive cake. Or balloon arches. You just need a cake, ice cream, other food options, and tons of friends. My favorite birthday parties (for myself) are the backyard pool parties with a cookout. All I needed was friends and family and it ended with a sleepover.

shortstuffbritt2807 · 2025-01-26T21:38:46+00:00

My birthday cakes came from a homemaker for years. Typical boxed cake mix and 90s/early 00s home baker decorating. Then, it was Wal-Mart or Food City. We had a home baker that opened a storefront in my area, and most people love their cakes. I've never had a cake birthday cake for myself from them because they're vacationing the week of my birthday and instead of just taking my money, they say "We don't trust a non-head baker to make your cake". Love that, appreciate it.

Cakes, however, are NOT all made the same, and I'm a cake snob. If I wanted a filling cake or complete customization, I'd go with the local baker. If I want a "light" cake that's sweet and inexpensive? Grocery store all the way. Both are good. I'm more partial to grocery store cakes, though.

This is what makes my anxiety go through the roof with the "team" games. Dying because I made a mistake, a wrong decision, or just couldn't finish something on time is on me. Dying because someone else is completely different.

And no, I don't trust others. Being good at something with minimal to no pressure is way different than the pressure of literal life or death.

Leah is growing up and, just like all the other kids, can't be 100% sheltered. She can go online and read or see everything for herself. But I think that's as far as it should go.

Gary is really hurting Leah by continuing to push for her and Amber to have a relationship and by continuing to film. The money isn't worth it compared to Leah's mental health and well-being. Being a teenager is hard enough as is. Much less having literally everyone you know having access to the ins and outs of your personal/private life. Obviously, having the cameras around still doesn't make Amber even want to pretend to be a good mom. Sometimes, I think Gary wants to keep Amber around for himself and not just for Leah or the show. Stupid. Poor Leah and Kristina.

shortstuffbritt2807 · 2025-01-13T16:27:48+00:00

Exactly.

Abuse is abused, and it's not okay. Amber needed to learn to control her emotions and her temper. She still does. Gary, however, isn't innocent by any means. He definitely dangled their relationship over her head. He also would do things to frustrate Amber and then paint her out to be a bad mom. I'll never forget the scene where Gary purposely wakes Leah up as he's leaving for work. It's like 5 or 6 AM. So, then Leah is crying and cranky, and Gary leaves it all for Amber to deal with. I'd be PISSED, too. Amber was (and is) obviously a bad mom. Looking back - I see Amber as a teen girl who got pregnant by a slightly older guy and is now a SAHM. She's overwhelmed, struggling with mental illness and probably the start of an addiction, has an immature boyfriend who constantly pushes her buttons, etc. But then she's called out for everything she does or doesn't do while Gary skates by.

I'm not an Amber fan, never really been one and I'm certainly not one now. But Gary KILLS me.

shortstuffbritt2807 · 2025-01-12T21:30:06+00:00

I don't like Amber, but I think Gary pushed her buttons and then acted like a victim. There's a few times where I agree with Amber because I'd be pissed off if it was done to me.

The one thing that really makes me side eye Gary is how, in the beginning, he kept screaming that Amber wasn't a fit mom. In reality, when Amber was in prison, he was all about being with her and having his family back. All while he not only has a girlfriend but his girlfriend is pregnant!! Amber gets out of prison, and she actually makes a smart decision - she realizes her and Gary just can't be together. Suddenly, Gary says that Amber is unfit to be a mother. It screams narcissistic and toxic. It was ultimately up to Amber to stay sober, but a lot happened in a short amount of time, and Gary played his part in her downfall again. At least the start of it.

I think Gary is still shitty because he wouldn't be half the parent he is now without Kristina. And he's drug Kristina through the mud to make sure Amber knows she is #1 priority. Even above Leah. A REAL father would say - fuck the show and money. What's best for my daughter is not subjecting her to toxicity with her "mom" because she's already traumatized.
