No wonder Meri wanted Robyn as the 4th wife. She saw the closeness between Janelle and Christine and wanted the same - and she got it from "sobbin' Robyn"........ Two of a kind, except I think there might be a little bit of jealousy between Meri and Robyn. Robyn is no beauty but she is the youngest and probably will have more kids, whereas Meri can't.....

I kinda like Kody. I think he's really a nice guy and gets a bad rap sometimes. At least, he's not around long enough for any one of them to tire of him, except I don't think he spends enough time with the kids, which is important while they're growing up and need that father figure in their lives..... JMO

I too like cody... sophia. Yes he makes some dumb mistakes when dealing with all his wives but who wouldn't. Marriage is all about learning how to negotiate, what makes us tick etc. Cody having 4 wives makes it at least 4x as hard I would think.

I agree. I actually think Meri might be on the verge of a breakdown when Mariah goes away to college. She seems to be very fragile. If Robyn gets pregnant again, then Meri will be totally alone unless she settles down and gets herself a job. But nooooooo, she'll start baby-sitting for Robyn again and the whole drama will begin all over again.

I really wonder how long this show is going to stay around. It had better pick up soon because I don't see anything in the future, except maybe something really catastrophic like a divorce/separation, or one of them leaving. To be continued.........................

With Christine and Janelle each having so many children (6 each? I think??), instead of hiring a babysitter so they can work, Meri should babysit their kids and make herself useful in that way. Keep the younger kids for Christine and Jannell so that they can work and not have to pay sitters!!

They need to do something, before they cancel it. Kody needs to get a hot 20 something year old.

Wow ~ that would really send Mari over the edge. Yikes.

If any of them had any sense, they would have paid cash for their houses from their TLC salaries. (and maybe they did) And since Kody doesn't have a house he should have paid 1/4 from his salary for each of the houses. And yes, Mari needs a job & certainly doesn't need that big house. I predict she goes ahead & takes Robyn up on her offer to be a surrogate.

Has anyone ever heard a hint of why Mari can no longer have children?

Meri and Kody are both on title. I read the houses are interest only loans.

Meri has fertility issues. There was a brief discussion about IVF and shots but Kody shot that down pretty quickly. I guess she was fortunate and got preg pretty quickly when they first got married, then nothing.

I actually do like Kody as well.

They're an odd group, for sure. If the women always say the attraction to the lifestyle is the sister-wives, the joint support to each other and raising of children, they haven't done much to nuture those relationships.
