I find it tough to watch anymore but I am interested in seeing a new one lol. Even though I doubt anything interesting will happen. In the previews I did notice that Meri sp? gained a lot of weight. I am going to watch Celebrity Apprentice but I'll catch Sister Wives later.

Hate to disappoint you but I had 5 boys. Three were born in 4 years and there is a 4 year gap beteen the oldest and next one down. They all knew how to do their own laundry by the time they were 10. The oldest knew how to make Pablum and heat up a bottle for his baby brother when he was 9 y/o.....I didn't force them to do anything. They just learned by watching. In my day, there was no day care (that I knew of) but I had neighbors with kids the same ages, so they were always "watched."....... My parents lived close by too....

Don't assume what you don't know. I think 5 could be called a "gaggle.".......{#emotions_dlg.laugh}

So you know that taking care of just 5 kids is a job in and of itself, right?

I don't think Meri has worked an outside job since they moved to Vegas. Robyn had the nerve to get upset with Meri last season when Meri told her that she wanted to go back to school and not help as much with the jewelry business. Robyn got all upset that she didn't see why anyone needed to work a job outside of the family and she was upset because she was wanting to work less to have another baby. No one really wants that jewelry business except Robyn.

I agree with that.

I don't see the Browns as very financially stable. I like janelle. I like Kody. Don't like the other wives.

I like Janelle as well but they are all overweight even Robin is putting it on. Judging from all the dirt on their floors I really don't think they work very hard. Get ready all for Mary and Robin to start their whine and cry routine. I really don't think the show is real anymore. The wives don't like each other and I really don't think they care for what's his name. They have their houses and the paycheck from the show and that is about all they care about.

So very true. That's the first thing I look for when they show the insides of the houses. I read their book "Becoming Sister Wives" and there are pictures in there. One picture shows the youngest kids (5 or 7 of them) sitting in the bathtub - and the mold (or mildew) was halfway up from the edge of the tub, to the ceiling. Not only is it unhealthy but it is so easy to get rid of with bleach. No excuse....

In Vegas, one day Cody was coming into Meri's house and he passed by a room that was absolutely filled with clutter all over the floor. Books, newspapers, junk just thrown helter skelter all over the rom. I think it was a den.

In any event, when I said they don't work, it's not because they can't.... It's sheer laziness. I don't think these women even know how to clean. As much as I like Janelle, her house looks like a tornado went through it. There was dirty laundry in the hallway on the floor right at the top of the stairs. This is "reality" for them. Otherwise, they would be saying "wait, before you start filming, let me get this stuff picked up".... I don't believe this is done just for the show. This is how they live. JMO of course.

I suspect the new woman is Kody's mom (or the one who is married to Kody's dad).

I think this program has run it's course and needs to go away. It's about as exciting as watching paint dry.

I watched this show for several years. Got tired of Meri always crying and wanting another baby. Just what they needed. And did we ever know where that husband worked? They were all big spenders and no jobs, just kids. I don't watch it anymore.
