Makenzie and Josh get married and have another kid right? Their relationship is so dysfunctional (duh!)...Josh doesn't seem to like her one iota, and he's a dumbass for not double bagging it.
Yeah, I really don't understand how they end up together at all, let alone married. Although in the preview for next week of the interviews with Dr. Drew, they showed Josh saying some Bull Shit about how he would wake up sobbing b/c he missed her so much. I don't believe it at all.
Yeah, he does care about them. He seems like a genuinely nice guy.
I am also really glad that Katie and Joey aren't together now in the show, and I hope they stay broken up so that she can go to college. Not that she couldn't have gone if they were together, but he always discouraged her from continuing her education. I think she seems like a smart girl, and a good mom. I'm also really glad that she breast fed for so long, and talked about it on the show and the after show. Most teen moms don't go that route, so it was nice that she could give that perspective.

I can't believe Joey broke up with her to be with another girl that has a kid around the same age. It's like the same thing. If your still playing house why not do it with your own kid.

I think Dr. Drew can be a real asshole. He's often telling the girls that they need to give the guys another chance, even after they have verbally abused them or their families or just generally treated them like shit. No, Dr. Drew, sometimes these girls are much better off without the boys in their life.
My husband heard Mackenzie say "why can't I get someone to love me?" or something like that and he stopped what he was doing and said "WTF!" She seems like she needs to go to counseling on her own to figure out her issues with needing to have Josh in her life. She's got to have terrible self esteem to let him treat her like that. I had to confirm that she was pregnant with Josh's baby last night too to see if it was his baby. I can't even imagine being in a relationship with a guy who acts like such a jerk. But also?
Tangent, but he really pissed me off at the end of TM2 when he was completely berating Kaitlyn for not liking Joe's GF, but he was so sympathetic to Janelle's heroin use.
I am assuming MacKenzie's parents are a big part of the reason her and Josh are now married and expecting the next kid. MacKenzie had a late term MC prior to having Gannon, right?

She did? I didn't know that. How sad.
It seems like teen pregnancy is not looked down on I her community, almost as if that is a normal thing for a teenager to do.
I feel bad for Dr. Drew on the reunion shows because you can tell he wants to help them find affordable therapy. I used to listen to him on Loveline and he really cared about helping teens who were abused or had addicts in their families or absentee parents. Once you bring kids into situations like these though the cycle just continues.
OMG, I think he is a complete misogynist. I can't even watch the reunion shows for how differently he treats the guys and girls, it drives me batty.
Also, I dated a guy who looked like him. He turned out to be a complete nutter.

I saw that bit on the previews, and still about died when I heard her say it on the show. That girl is just so desperate for his attention, it's really sad. And surprising, since her parents seem pretty caring and supportive. But her self-esteem is in the shitter.
I HATE Joey (of Joey and Katie). What a tool bag. A couple episodes ago, when he grabbed Molli and was storming around the apartment, swearing up a storm, and saying he was going to take her or whatever. I would have filed for sole custody and a retraining order on his ass SO FAST. And there have been a few times when he's had her and they show him and his parents sitting around and smoking around Molli. If you're going to smoke, can't you at least do it away from the baby? It makes me really sad that apparently they end up staying together
Alex and Briana seem to be doing the best they can.
Thank goodness they're not together! The fight last week where he was running around with the baby and yelling at Katie was scary. I hope Katie can live the single mom life for a long while until she figures out how not to be with another guy like him.
I feel bad for Katie. I really like her, she seems really sweet but a lot more immature (mentally) than Joey and he totally uses that to his advantage.
Poor McKenzie is so sweet and beautiful and I can't stand Josh. He tries way to hard to be a cowboy. I really don't think he cares about her at all.

Alex needs to stop with the explosions though, good God. Enough already.
I dunno about anyone else but TM3 has been really boring for me.

MacKenzie and Josh are painful to watch. Her mom definitely contributes to the issue, IMO. I can't believe they wind up married. I don't see that lasting, and if it does it will just be a dysfunctional marriage.
Katie and Joey are abusive towards each other in a way that disturbs me. He's the worse of the two, but she isn't really healthy in her reactions and behaviors. I hope they stay apart.
Alex needs to chill the fuck out. You can see her family (her mom included) walking on eggshells around her. She does seem to be a good parent to her daughter, though.

I had to stop watching this season. It just made me so, so sad for the kids. Obviously these parents aren't equipped to be parents, and I'm not in denial that a lot of kids just have sucky upbringings, but I can't watch it knowing those fuckers are profiting from being shitty people and parents. I feel like, for the most part, teen moms in past seasons have done the best they could with what they had to work with.
