Yes, but she’s also demonstrating why psychologists say divorce in social groups is contagious. It has been studied that people in the process of divorcing will discourage reconciliation within their friend group when discussing other couples’ issues. Divorce is not wonderful, is a marriage is toxic, then yes, it is best to leave it, but that doesn’t make divorce a wonderful thing. Children of divorce suffer, they have poorer success rates in their own relationships and tend to show other markers of trauma. Again, unhealthy marriages should not be endured, but people need to take more care in who they choose to marry and even more so, who they have children with. Christine’s children have a severely damaged relationship with their father, there is no way that is healthy or a happy development for the children.

Born & raised LDS. My Mom died when I was 7 after a 3 year battle with breast cancer at the age of 34. My dad married a “Robyn” 1 year later who had a daughter(13) & son(12). I had 2 sisters (12 & 3). The minute they introduced Robyn on the show, I picked up on so many behaviors in her & her kids & the whole show has made me sick watching the same type of thing happen to my dad & us girls from their same personality disorders. At 47 my dad & I have a strained relationship & he has to come to my house because his house is a mine field that he is blind to. He’s disappointed in me not turning the other cheek for the millionth time & creating boundaries to protect myself. He knows everything about his step kids, their kids & their babies, but very little about my sisters & I & our families. It’s destroyed long time relationships he & my mom had & those of his family & my Mom’s because they spoke out when we couldn’t & he told them it was just us adjusting. He’s now sealed to both my mom & “Robyn” & her kids. It’s bad knowing my dad forsake everything for his “new family” & living with that pain of being an orphan when he’s present for that family & not doing anything to repair what he’s put us girls & our half brother, he had who was 3 when he married our Mom, knowing he refused to do anything for him when he made bad decisions after my Mom died & she & our home, his safe place, was no longer available to him & he grew up in juvie for the last 4 years of his childhood to 18, is hard to forgive. My sisters & I have a relationship with him that we all work on together without my dad- he reached out to him & was so excited about hunting & fishing with his dad again, just to find a guy who is a shell of the man he was with my Mom. Watching the Sister Wives family fall apart in much the same way & the dad only truly care about her kids & family is devastating & painful.

He needs CONTROL and has used these tactics of reprimanding each of his wives do attain more and more adoration from them. His ego was fed by his pushing and pulling them around and demanding their respect and “loyalty!” The vicious things he says to the wives that leave him proves that he only LOVED himself and what they could do for him!! He was not heartbroken by the wives leaving him one by one, it was him not being able to control them and their MONEY! Clearly Robyn is the favored wife and he is going to pledge his love for her because that aligns with HER game of manipulation. So sad that these kids are pawns in all this and one paid for it with his life!

@@marisatotero630 Sometimes I wonder if Kody only loves freedom, power and money. Not really himself or others. He has a destructive personality w embarrassing, contradicting traits of enlarged ego and victimhood. When he cries...waaagh... He feels justified to cross boundaries out of victimhood. Being destructive is a very difficult trait (most difficult), because he cannot even trust himself. Unpredictable decisions and behavior. Not a stable adult. Deep inside, I don't think he's comfortable with himself. He has moved a lot and rearranged the situation and people around him, every 8th year? By controlling others, he's trying to have some control? But it will never be enough. He should meet himself and work on that. He would prob have been happier living a gyspy style. Being on the roads with little responsibility. But his faith... I can see him being sensitive to addiction. It's difficult when you don't love or respect yourself. With that said, he disrespects the wives more than himself. He's putting them down in an effort to feel good abt himself. He's in a sharp situation now. Only him and Robin. He will start to push her as well. If Robin leaves, so does much of the family money. These are only humble speculations, of course...

Honestly, unless a child has gone no contact I think it’s always the parents responsibility to reach out. Parents don’t get to be so prideful in their relationships with their adult children that they can’t admit when they’re wrong or at the very least that maybe they’re seeing things from two different perspectives, that’s me though.

Kody is also demonstrating multigenerational trauma. I generally hate that expression, as I believe people use it as a crutch for bad behavior or of excuse for lack of success, it’s original inception referred to people continuing destructive practices they experienced during their formative years. Kody’s father was clearly emotionally distant and demonstrated conditional love, we don’t know what Kody’s grandfather was like, but it’s safe to assume Kody’s father learned his behavior from somewhere. Kody lacked the ability to reflect on how his father failed him and to then apply this to how he parented. Instead, he just continued the same unhealthy paradigms.

I really think that there are so many factors to be weighed when we are talking about who should be reaching out. In general I think parents should put in a lot of effort but there also has to be boundaries. No one shouldn't feel stuck in a toxic environment. Boundaries and clear expectations are important. A therapist also told me you can't force people to care about you or do anything they don't want to do no matter how much you want it.

I believe that we parent our kids for life. It is and will always be my responsibility to maintain contact with my children. Even now, as I'm 37 and they're 13 and 17-year-old, sometimes moody teens, it is MY job to still remind them every day of the love that I have for them even when we're not seeing eye-to-eye. My parents feel differently about the matter. In fact, it's led to us butting heads many times. Most recently, when my parents had a falling out with my younger brother over a simple misunderstanding. My mom refused to reach out to my brother for nearly a year and still sometimes avoids his calls or makes snide comments about him and his wife. I told her again and again that she should be the one to reach out, but she resisted just like Kody--albeit less loudly. So, all of that to say that as someone who doesn't have the kind of parents who reach out when there's conflict, I aim to be the opposite with my children and truly believe that I'm making the correct choice in doing so. I cannot even imagine valuing myself so highly as to feel that I couldn't be bothered to reach out to my children. Insanity.

I think it’s the parent’s responsibility to reach out. They made those kids. Parents should have the emotional maturity to be the bigger person and work things out. Now that’s not to say that if you have a very rebellious child who defies you at every turn, that you have to continually grovel to have a relationship. But in the case of the Brown family, I don’t believe that to be the case. Cody is a spoiled child who has the emotional maturity of a two year old. All he does is point the finger and blame everyone but himself. There is very little honest self-reflection where he takes any responsibility yet he is the only common denominator in every failed relationship. I think his kids should run as fast as they can away from him.

I think pride goeth before the fall. Kodys pride is keeping him from reaching out and if he doesn’t realize what’s really important and that relationships take 2 people who are willing to work at those relationships and admit when they’re wrong and show grace and love to each other then there will be no relationship. A parent is supposed to have unconditional love for their children. No one is perfect but even if the child decides to break away the parent should make sure they know that they’re loved and are there for them when/if they want to come back.

14:18 relationships are two way streets but in cases like the Kody's with his kids, he's never bothered with effort. Just look at what Maddie said about cutting him off because he can't commit to consistent involvement in her kids life. And even Mykelti said to have a relationship, she had to put in at least 75% of the effort. That's not a fair relationship. At this point Kody needs to put in the effort to show he isn't going to do the same old behaviors.

Large picture.... both. Any relationship takes both parties parent and kids, husband and wife, friend and friend. Both should reach out to each other. Both should remind the other they care and think of them. I feel it's unhealthy to sit and say I reached out last time so I'm going to wait for them to reach out next. Every relationship in our lives should be given our time. Some days you may give 70% and they give 30% but your life will get busy and that percentage will go the other way at times. The important thing is to never let the people you love and care for go without knowing that. We share equal responsibility ❤

Relationships go both ways. I wish we didn’t keep track of who didn’t contact who instead- call or reach out when you think about them. My father completely stopped calling me and would have these high expectations of me calling super regularly. But he doesn’t reach out and he keeps track. It actually pushes me away. Because sometimes I call and he seems irritated or bothered. So if I’m only the only one calling it takes a long time for me. I’d really just love him to call me and say he loves me. Otherwise it feels like conditional love. And honestly, Cody has always had a conditional love with his wives- so no surprise with his adult children. He is of narcissistic personality and seems to want it to be all about him.

Until she was going to take accountability in the issue we weren't speaking about, I wasn't going to. So from my perspective, we could've mended the relationship if she reached out sooner with an apology or acknowledgement. I was the one who ended up reaching out for the sake of a sibling who was stuck in the middle.

I think it’s the parents job to reach out if they are rejected then still pull back but never give up. I think the kids want a relationship with their father but are tired of getting disappointed (like in the case of Maddie). If he can’t be consistent then they will just love him from afar. Like I heard someone else say, a parent should not expect their kid to help them be a good parent. If he wants a relationship then take the first step. His narcissism will not allow him because he is afraid of the rejection.

I think Mari stayed because of her faith and not wanting to disappoint her mother. Her only out was for Kody to make the first move. He did that very clearly. I also think Meri choosing to have her eternal marriage dissolved has a two-fold reason. Firstly as she stated, why would she want to spend eternity with him. Secondly, if Kody thinks he still has the benefit of eternal marriage with Robin, Janelle, and Meri then he is set in the afterlife. Mere takes that possibility away from him.

Kody has been isolated far too long with Robyn. Unstable with unstable = disastrous. I’ve kept myself open to my children for every criticism of what they as young children felt was traumatic. My youngest son is a huge success, but there are times he needs to unleash his hurt from his father and my divorce. I acknowledge my part and have made amends. More than once. I’m the mom who wasn’t perfect, but I never point fingers at his then physically abusive father. I own my mistakes and recognize young children have different perspectives on events during childhood. It’s about listening and respect. Period. Btw, my brother checked out much like Garrison. My LDS father returned to his church, faith and God for his confusion and depression. Kody has opportunities, but he’s blowing it all on Robyn - I feel there’s going to be IRS investigations - they’ll continue to cling to each other because of the law that spouses can’t testify against each other. They’re both hostages of their own bad behaviors.

I think parents so have a responsibility to reach out and maintain a relationship with their children. However, if you are an adult child whose parent is just not going to do that you have to make a decision what kind of relationship you want with them. My dad will never, ever be the one to initiate contact with me- but it’s important to me to have some kind of communication with him. So I call him every two weeks. It was really difficult for me to come to the realization that I would never have the kind of relationship I desired with him, but if I wanted one at all I was going to have to put in all the work.

If we are talking about children, the adult has the responsibility to reach out and model what that looks like. But when you become an adult, my feeling is there is a shift where the relationship should become reciprocal, as in any other relationship. What I’ve learned through personal experience and study, is that the problems arise when the balance is off and one person feels they are doing the lions share of the work in the relationship in most areas, including reaching out and instigating time spent together. All relationships require mutual effort and when that is lacking, the closeness and connection are impacted. That’s especially true between parents and their children. And if adult children are backing away from their parent, there are usually deep seated and long term relationship difficulties at the root cause of that. Kody, in my opinion, would be wise to get curious about why his kids are retreating and allow them to share what they need from their relationship to feel fulfilled. It seems unlikely to happen if he continues to blame and fail to take personal responsibility.

You asked whose responsibility it should be to reach out and reconnect: the parents or the kids? I adhere to something called "relationship anarchy" which is a subset of polyamory, I suppose. It means I do not try and play chess with people's feelings or time. ALL interactions are authentic (at least on my part). I only spend time and energy on people that I authentically love, and I expect that in return. There is no sense of duty whatsoever. No one HAS to spend time with someone else. I am lucky in that I'm the product of a lot of therapy and I don't take it personally if someone I love spends less time with me. That's the ebb and flow of life.

Kody is telling everyone what his true feelings are, through his inaction. His lack of contact symbolizes his lack of love.🤨😡

Don't give him too much credit. He is not very intelligent and follows the same playbook as all the other narcissists.

My ground as a parent is ALLWAYS MY RESPONSIBLE TO: Talk to my child Ask What happened? What did you feelt like? How would you wanted me to react? I thouht like this, can you understand my ways? Where did I do wrong? Are you not safe in your mind that I dont love you? How would you want us to move on and build a new foudation? What do you need from me? Because: I love YOU I want YOU to be happy I will stand by you because you are a beutifule soul, my heart and I will respect and honer you, Not only because that you are my child, but because YOU ARE YOU!!❤❤❤

I think both sides should try to reach out to the other. It’s hard sometimes to let things go and turn the other cheek. Start slow with maybe a phone call and then a visit or meet at a restaurant. Talk things out if possible and be honest about your feelings.

I think Parents need to reach out they are cutting off or neglecting kids, Great parent/child: parent can still reach out-prob less busy, but but be clear "can you call me back today or tomorrow?" giving adult child time but also a timeline when to call back etc

Endure to the end, right? I prefer not having a companion, I am my own companion. I do feel like I have a companion on the other side (a new age belief, but I still like it). Kind of like an angel watching over you. I like not being attached to anybody. I'm like my uncle, he never got married, he had a girlfriend for a while, but that ended. I kind of miss her. I think they realized what was the point, because his girlfriend had a bad previous marriage.

I think it is the responsibility of parents to maintain relationships, even with adult children. But, it is a common hallmark of emotionally immature and narcissistic parents to think otherwise. I have noticed a change in your commentary, in a good way. I feel like in the past maybe you would hedge a bit more or try and be careful about how you said certain things, maybe because you didn't want to alienate or offend people. You both seem to have gotten more confident and assertive and we love to see it.

What did you think about Kody saying his much trouble he is having loving himself anymore? Apparently, that is the main problem he sees and needs to work on. What ever happened to repenting? Mormans have that, right?

You asked whose responsible for the relationship between the parents and the adult children. I think it's 50/50. Both parents and the adult kids have the responsibility to reach out. But it's also each persons responsibility to protect themselves and not be walked over. Just because you are biologically related doesn't mean you have any obligations to each other. Just my opinion

I’m gonna heavily disagree. If you are a parent, it is your responsibility to care for your children. How that looks changes as they grow up, but that responsibility never changes. Kody emotionally abused his children. That’s his responsibility.. He is 100% to blame for emotionally abusing his children and being unsafe for them to be around. He is the one who invite Savannah to Christmas or contact her. It’s not her responsibility as a minor to reach out to her father. He is the one who called his children assholes on television. He is the one that said some of his children were outcasts and listed their names on television. He said that a major surgery was a vacation and didn’t want his daughter to get necessary medical intervention. He is the one who refused to help pay for the surgery. He is the one that did not carry insurance on any of his own children. He is the reason she didn’t get that surgery before hand and was instead in chronic pain and was actively becoming more disabled as a result. That’s neglect. He is the one that blamed Janelle for traveling when she was going to support her daughter while Her granddaughter was getting major reconstructive surgery as a baby. He is the one that in 2024 is doing interviews talking about his deceased child, as if that deceased child was a buddy that he didn’t think to call instead of his child that he called an asshole and demeaned for at least 4yrs. These are all instances of emotional abuse. The abuser is fully responsible because they were abusive. Let’s not victim blame.

I am really concerned about Gwen and David. Both are on spectrum. That means they handle social interactions different. If the adults in their life are neurotypical I think it’s on them to keep the door open. I thought Garrison was handling it quite well. I would like to know what they were filming. He did contact film crew. Did he watch like Meri suddenly hearing form Kody what he said about them? I don’t think the show did anyone other than let the kids pick monogamy and some money for some of them.

I won't watch this season because I don't believe the show should continue after everything that's happened so I don't want them to profit off of my viewing, but if you're going to watch it I'm here for your reaction videos, LOL.
