Trent ran his big mouth against Jonah’s choice, live and learn!
I don’t understand Trent & amber’s logic raising kids I agree Trent & amber treated jonah like crap . When Trent quit his job he should of waited until he got one before quitting setting an example for his kids . Amber wants the kids to live by her words if she says oh I need you all to help clean up help cook do this do that they have studies to do for school & time for there friends which amber doesn’t allow much of or make them do stuff they don’t want to do especially with Alex forcing a child to go rip cording the kid is in tears that’s not being a parent I feel for Alex & all the kids it’s only my opinion
