I watched outdaughtered last night.  I like the girls at this age.  I think the tempur tantrums from last year have simmered down a bit.  I like the interaction they have with each other and how their personalities are all so different.

Last night Adam and Danielle met with the school to get the test results and see who will be able to advance to the next level.  What really bothered me about this is that they were discussing the results in the car and in front of all 6 of their children.  Then they had the discussion again with Uncle Dale and Kiki - again in front of all of the kids.

IMO these conversations needed to be held in private without the children.  Kids at that age listen to everything.  How do you think poor Parker must feel hearing what they are saying about her.?  Even if the young girls don't remember, Blayke will.  She is too young to be part of those conversations.  This really bothered me.

I thought the same thing!  I know they are being taped while in the car but that conversation should have been in private away from the kids.  Poor Parker, she almost always looks sad.

I admit i watch the show to see the personalities and progress of the girls............i know so much is scripted...so don't take all of it seriously...............but getting tired of so many shows being donated to "making Danielle feel good"

celebrating her birthday, Mothers Day, etc in BIG WAYS!!

I think they should spend more time celebrating their family and friends who are SUPER supportive and who they are continually leaning on for support.

@63mkmI agree, my heart breaks for Parker and how sad she always looks.  I'm hoping it is just because she doesn't like the cameras and when they are not filming she is a carefree happy little girl.

@Travone I agree with you.

I also think they are doing Parker a disservice by allowing her to move up.  I think it would be easier to leave her where she is, see how she is doing and maye move her up at a later point in the year.  It would be harder on her to move her up and have to move her back down if she couldn't keep up.

I've come to really dislike Adam.  When Parker was crying at the dude ranch that she wanted Mommy he turned her away from her when Danielle tried to step in.

I also see this show turning into a Kate + 8 with the over the top trips.

I've had enough of this show.  I stopped watching.

I agree it seems in this day and age some people think kids can be around adult  conversations and sometime treat them like they are adults. I don't understand it.

I am not the biggest fan of Adam....but Danielle gets on my nerves way more......she is all about "me"...sorry....yes...you commit to that many kids and i think you can wait til the kids are all in school before 

trying to  open a store..........and online business is enough for now...........but it seems Danielle always wins any argument of gets her way throughout most of the show............and she gives Adam such a hard time if he is scheduled to go into Dallas (work) because she will be alone..........she always has relatives, friends around her............................how lucky they are that he is able to have a job where he can  be home most of the time ........

Those kids def need parenting...they are adorable but can always use more discipline and parents around if possible.....

So did I, @faeriemoon.  I deleted all the recorded shows I hadn't watched yet and cancelled all future recording.  It is too stressful to watch and when I read they got a dog, that was the clincher for me.  They have these children to care for.  How unfair to bring a dog into the mix.
