Did anyone watch the show? It was pretty epic, first time I ever liked watching Dr. Phil and laughed a lot.

That girl is hilarious! Every time she'd talk about getting a job she'd start to cry and then she'd whine about not wanting to start at the bottom because she's better than that. she had 0 redeeming qualities about her,she is a pure 100% waste of oxygen that will leech off whatever she can get.

Wait, you and the wife paid $500 for his prom and he didn't let momma bear get any pics? Oh man, I actually feel sorry for that poor kid now.
Self inflicted wound. He was supposed to be on "electronic reduction" for a month because of that but she gave him his phone back after 10 days. weak sauce.

She's home schooled because she couldn't handle the rich kid peer pressure. I bet she'll make a fabulous door stop when she grows up.

I liked the comment about her mom wanting to buy her a Mercedes C class and she said something like "I won't drive anything that would be considered an UberX". Well guess you won't be driving bitch.

My parents would have died from laughter if I said something like that after they offered to buy me a car.

Nicolette is currently completing her schooling online because attending school “traumatised” her.

LOL

probably wasn't the center of attention and couldn't get the grades she thought she deserved without actually learning anything or doing any work for them.

'73 puke green Mercury Montego. I was told to drive it or walk, the school was only 2 miles away.

Doubtful. After she dropped the f bomb, he likely shit his pants.:D

If you are going on Dr. Phil for this (including the mother) it just seems like it's like Maury... it's all fake BS.

Maybe I'm wrong though....

I can tell you 'second' hand that while there is probably a lot of fake stuff, not all of it is fake. My neighbors were on Montel..and wow.

People love to talk about and criticize how other people use money. Middle class people love to talk about how poor people and bad with money. They also love to talk about how, if they were rich, they wouldn't piss their money away like rich people do. Rich people like to talk about how poor people wouldn't be so poor if they were better with money. Poor people like to criticize other poor people for being moochers.

That is about 90% of these types of articles, just giving people an easy target for criticism so they can feel better about their own lives.
So, we agree everyone is bad with their money. Rich folks just have more to be bad with.

link? So are you the neighbor kid's daddy?

Dude it was like late 90's. Lol, and no had nothing to do with me. I only heard about it after the fact. Used to have a VHS tape of it. It was one of those the husband and wife were both cheating on each other with the others husband and wife and got knocked up, etc.etc. I have no idea why they went on TV for it, but they were the epitome of white trash..so there's that.

I got an '88 baby shit brown Mitsubishi Mighty Max my folks paid $500 for. I was just happy that the radio worked but you could start it with a screw driver and the back sliding window didn't lock so I didn't have to worry about losing my keys so it had that going for it.

Doubtful. After she dropped the f bomb, he likely shit his pants.:D

You never know, some girls are into that kind of stuff.

So they both knocked each others wifes up at roughly the same time or did one get knocked up so the other decided to get knocked up as revenge?

If someone is raised in an insular environment with certain expectations, it shouldn't be surprising when these expectations seem normal to that individual. There's probably some context of fitting in to a peer group as well, not that any of it is right. Honestly I have no idea what it would be like to try and instill humility and frugality into a child if I was a wealthy parent in a wealthy neighborhood, but I think that if my kid turned out like this one, I'd be near suicidal.

Don't live in a wealthy neighborhood to begin with? That would help.

not necessarily

lots of poors make horrible financial decisions (payday loans, rent to own, buying lots of bling) and are wretched people

I've known both rich and poor that are exceptional people

character has very little to do with your external circumstances

Well the girl didn't start to be like this overnight. Definitely the result of some parenting, or should I say, lack of it. I'm sure since the time she was in the crib she's been allowed to do whatever the heck she wants and rarely hears the word "no" or "too bad." I think it's ridiculous but hey, what do you expect? Meh.

Well payday loans and rent to own places are places I stay away from, and I don't buy bling.
