I believe that Robyn and I should have been married from the beginning as well. I'm so happy that we are all together now. We are blessed.
— Kody Brown (@realkodybrown) August 26, 2013
I missed that those years with Robyn. However, I know that she was pure when she came to my family. She blessed my life so much. Redemption!
— Kody Brown (@realkodybrown) August 26, 2013
Robyn's story: I believe that purity lost may be restored through the Messiah, Jesus and by repentance. I have faith. This is the Gospel!We get it Kody, Geez. Did you have to embarrass the kids and slam the ex?

The latest creation from Twisted Sister:
Time to Talk!
Oops...Kody & Robyn failed the chaste test when they kissed before "marriage". No problem though, I'm sure they had it restored before the ceremony. That renewable purity thing is quite convenient!
ReplyDeleteRenewable Purity Ring! Thanks BC, you just made me realize the newest line coming out for the Browns! Coming Soon....Magic Hats! Look into them and see where your future home will be!
DeleteSeriously, though, the past couple of days have been a blast! PLEASE Keep the spoilers coming next season, maybe on Polygamy USA?
This was a great idea and so much fun!
"Renewable purity" is that like a national resource we just haven't tapped into as a country of (mostly) monogamous people?
DeleteI say we start a campaign to Renew Virginity for all second marriages with children!
LMAO!
What idiocy. Robin wasn't any more or less 'pure' on her wedding day to Kody than she was when she was a virgin. I'd rather be single than 'marry' someone whose main concern was the status of that body part. My main concerns with the person I marry have a lot more to do with a lot of other adjectives than 'purity'. Kody is so shallow he must scrape his knees daily.
ReplyDeleteAnd, in regards to Mariah, why do complete strangers think they need to text Meri about Mariah's weight? Their opinion somehow matter?
I agree! It was rude for someone to say that. Take a note Brown family: we live in the digital/social media age and when nearly every aspect of your child's life is broadcast on TV, things like this are bound to happen.
DeleteMeri quickly deletes any tweets that upset her...so why did that tweet stay alive? Meri, if there is ever anybody who attacks your child's self worth, you should be quick and decisive. That should have been deleted before it was ever seen by anyone from this blog or by anyone anywhere.
DeleteNow I would not have posted that tweet but Meri did.
DeleteSo the entire twitter world saw it too.
Can't always assume that we are the bad guys.
Mister Sister, I did not mean to insinuate that you were the "Bad Guy." I just cannot believe that Meri left it where it could be seen to be copied. She made that decision. It is still there. I do not really use Twitter, but from what I could tell, she even responded. I do not admire her mothering skills. She should have deleted that pronto. As Meriah said last week when she deleted something, "Family first!" Shame on Meri!
DeleteI didn't necessarily mean you either just some clarification for those that don't go to Twitter and might be confused! No harm no foul.
DeleteI wish Meri--and the rest of the crew--would take on legitimately nasty comments more often. Then I wish they would react appropriately to constructive criticism and issue apologies or gracefully acknowledge their failings. I feel like responding head on--though not disproportionately defensive--to asinine comments, the words lose their power.
DeleteRobyn just tweeted on next week's Q&A that Janelle will discuss having shared her cookie with Meri's brother, Adam. I can't wait to see that one.
ReplyDeleteJust joking! But seriously what a bunch of freaks over the purity issue. I thought that stuff was all too private to discuss and now we have to hear on the show and on the tweets about Robyn's cookie. TMI, people, and I am not talking about Mona's company.
Watching last night's episode with my Mom was interesting to say the least. When Robyn started going on about purity, Mom says "what about his purity?". We were both appalled at what was going on. BTW, I love the new graphic at the end of the new post. It looks like the paw print, but flipping someone the bird. Not flipping of SWB, but Robyn and her sob story. What she did last night was disgusting. As someone who is divorced, but did not have any kids, I would NEVER badmouth my ex. Even now, on the blue moon that I talk about it (without sobbing), I just say we grew apart. I don't know if she was in an abusive relationship, and hope not (as I wouldn't wish that on anyone), but if she wasn't and that was only to make Kody look better SHAME ON HER. It didn't work out, was not meant to be, but then she also has kids listening to that and it'll be on DVD? WOW, just wow.
ReplyDeleteWhat about poor Dayton hearing that he was the worst mistake of her life!
DeleteStepping in to say:
ReplyDeleteI'm seeing comments debating back and forth whether Mormons are Christians or not.
There are forums better suited for that kind of debate. Meanwhile, here on SWB please be respectful of others, particularly those who may have religious beliefs different from yours.
Let's just agree to disagree on that topic and move on. Further discussion is not necessary.
Thank you.

I found yesterday's episode difficult to stay awake through. It's becoming a tedious chore to watch these episodes. If it weren't for this blog I wouldn't, but I want to be able to keep up with the conversations, so I suffered through it. After last night I wondered if I need to figure out a way to scrub Sobbin's snot off the inside of my TV, because surely there is some there, nobody cries that much without snotting everything in site. I swear her blubbering has got to end or blog or not, I will just have to read the synopsis and comment on that. One thing is for sure, the last thing I care about is Robyn's virginity, past, future or now. What an embarrasing episode for those poor kids. Aurora must have been mortified. Plus, how does a kid feel knowing their mother is so distraught over her sex life with their father that she must sob about it for a full epidose/Sunday sermon. I am not with the father of my children, and no matter how badly he treated me, or how many of my choices could be considered mistakes by some, I would never sit there crying, sobbing and basically telling my children that being with their father was the biggest mistake I ever made in my life. "Wow, sure mom, thanks, boy do I feel wanted" I find it interesting that the other wives never mention sex, it is a forbidden topic, but when it comes to Robyn the insinuations and discussions are free to discuss. Robyn, if you are reading this, there is NO SUCH THING as spiritual virginity. This is one thing that cannot be reclaimed once it is gone. I think you know this in your heart of hearts, if you didn't then why in the world would you try so hard to keep your daughter's from giving their purity away to somebody "undeserving"? Simple fact, you cannot erase the memories of your sex life with your ex-husband anymore than you can take his DNA out of your children. All this ridiculousness is making me think your history is an issue with Krody, so he is creating a new dogma to re-create your purity so it can belong to him. Whatever floats your boat, just quit horrifying your children, and quit bad mouthing their father, or you are going to see that backfire in the worst way.
ReplyDeleteWhat a dreadful thing for your son to hear that he was th3 worst mistake of your life Have you no heart/
DeleteThis show totally disgusted me. I could not believe that someone would say the things Robin said about her ex, her children's father in front of them. She should have been with Kody from the beginning so her children should not exist. She was not in the church but managed to marry a Jessop. Sounds to me she was trying to social climb in the church and it didn't work out. She says that he took her purity, but wasn't she a will partner. Sounds to me like she gave it and it didn't work out. I can't believe that they believe her purity can be restored. My husband said oh well anything you do you get a redo. What a ridiculous thing to believe. I am almost at the point were I can't watch any more because it makes me so angry.
Delete@Anon 805.... sure she has a heart it belongs to Kodi along with her cookie which rhymes with? Nah I would like mental health professionals to offer her some free counseling or therapy. It is obvious she has some life long victim issues and wondering what happened to her in her childhood. I am pretty sure Kodi doesnt read this but, if he did I hope he loves her enough to have her take a back seat on the show. It is embarrassing that this woman with obvious mental illness problems is constantly putting herself on display to be ridiculed. Kodi protect her! Have her smiling in the background and saying little. For her benefit and the benefit of your bonus children keep her out of the lime light. When the show is over and done with I see her having a total breakdown and this is more then a little sad. I hope she spares her bonus children any more humiliation and pain and quits speaking in front of the cameras. Bless em all!
DeleteI sort of wandered in and out of the room during Robyn's pathetic "story." I couldn't stand listening to something that was so wrong. At one point, I came in and saw the heart locket on the floor and went back into the kitchen for a treat. Later I wondered if I missed the end of the mind-numbing speculation about whether Meri will have another child...?
DeleteThis magical thinking about the re-writing of history when it comes to Sobyn's (im)purity reminds me of when Rep. Joe Kennedy (Mass.) got remarried and he tried to annul his first marriage -and this is after he and his first wife had had children! He wanted the Catholic Church to say their marriage never legitimately existed, despite the production of 2+ sweet children. I can't remember if the Church granted his request for annulment.
ReplyDeleteSobyn has no class and probably has an 80 IQ, but she has a magical, rejuvenated cookie!
The Boston Diocese granted the annulment but the Vatican later overturned that decision during the automatic appeal process.
DeleteShe actually wrote a book about her fight against it (for her kid's sake)...an interesting read.
DeleteI just finished watching Polygamy USA and that is more of what I thought a modern polygamy would look like. A group of like minded people living how they believe. As long as they aren't milking the welfare system or abusing people/children then to each their own. And as long as they aren't preventing women from leaving. I like the young men working labor jobs to build character before marriage, that's a great message and a great help to the community. Overall I think this life is far too harsh on women, even if they ARE "allowed" to choose their husbands. Do we all make the best decisions at the age of 18?
ReplyDeleteAs long as these principles are not abusive then it really isn't much different than a group of people who want to be self sufficient and live off the land, like modern homesteaders.
As for Robyn's story, I nailed it. Pregnant before marriage. The greatest no-no a woman can make, giving "it" up before the magic words are said to bind you to a man for the rest of eternity.
The doublespeak is maddening. Just tell it like it is, it's natural and none of us would be here (except for some fancy laboratory work) without good old fashioned <>. This generation didn't invent it, and neither did the last generation. WHY in modern society can we NOT just be up front about sex. It can be great, it can be not so great. It can bind you to another person, it can destroy your relationship to another person. Talk about it to your kids with age appropriate words depending on their age and maturity.
I don't think that speech had any effect on the teens, Mykelti now seems to think "purity" is something to never give away and is probably afraid of sex. Wow, great message Robyn. The kids are confused and will want to know why their Dad broke their Mom's heart locket by throwing it on the floor. It just makes me sick, sickity sick!
Mariah doesn't count, Meri has had her on the Kool-Aid drip since she was in the bassinet. And why were her lily white precious arms so B*A*R*E?? I thought that was beyond immodest. Oh, after Robyn's speech it isn't so bad.
I don't understand why very strict religious groups (especially the ones that never answer ANYTHING straight) are so obsessed with those repentant sinners?? The worse the sin the louder the applause!? As long as you come back spewing the right words and preaching the straight and narrow path after you have "seen the light" then your sin is something to hold up and say hallelujah over!
Talk about milking it with the Kodster. Robyn is his little poster poly wife. She chose poorly but then found her right and true path, of course with him. Has anyone ever noticed that when they are discussing being right and true to their beliefs that she is ALWAYS the biggest rah-rah cheerleader for Fundamentalistism? <>
If I would have been sitting there, with 6 kids and 18 years invested into my "marriage" and the new little concubine had the audacity to talk about how the kids need to do this, and the kids need to do that.....wait......she's talking about MY kids!!!! I'd probably put her right.....she has NO right to step up and talk about how kids that she has ONLY known for a year or two need to choose HER way instead of their own choices.
If you go back and watch the older episodes you can see that she is always right there to preach Kody's beliefs and talk about how everyone will choice Kody's beliefs and how that is the right way. Talking about her "biggest mistake" is just another way that Robyn has to point out that Kody's way is the one and true way.
Gag me. Sickity sick. Those poor kids.
We have to keep in context that they still are in the same grouping as the Browns. Just a different style. Frankly, I would fall asleep watching it with their monotone voices.
DeleteWe are just seeing a more, hmmm.. elder group? With Art running the show, he is no holds barred take no prisoners kind of guy.
Throwing the boot shows the ego on him.
But, coming here for the reviews is always fun.
@Rose, Mariah's outfit is really bothering me. It looks like something the college girls I know would wear; it's not revealing by, say, Miley Cyrus standards, but it's definitely not up to the Brown modesty standards.
DeleteEarlier this season we saw again the clip of Meri snapping at Mykelti(I think) over a shirt. "I don't want to see that much of your body" or something very similar to that, yet she'll allow her own flesh-and-blood to bare her shoulders? I almost wonder if the editing team did that on purpose...
Polygamy USA is also as fake as this. Just more believable. They let you see what they want you to see. However, I did learn more about the faith there.
Delete"I missed that those years with Robyn. However, I know that she was pure when she came to my family."
ReplyDeleteKody, you pompous, self-righteous ass !!!
Really?! You think that you get to give the good housekeeping seal of approval to her purity rating.
All your stated Plyg rules aside, I just don't buy your alleged devotion to the Principle.
Instead, I think underneath your bravado and studley image, you are very insecure and unsure with several aspects of your psyche, along with being a chronic attention addict.
So your solution to your inner conflicts was to become a harem master and free-floating babymaker. Far safer than having to actually compete and relate with the rest of the world's males, huh?
And about that elusive yet treasured *purity*.....
How "pure" are you as you go from woman to woman, bed to bed ???
I agree. How can is this guy even talk about purity while he goes from bed to bed?
DeleteI missed that those years with Robyn. However, I know that she was pure when she came to my family. She blessed my life so much. Redemption!
DeleteKody, she wasn't pure. puree' yes. She'd been SMASHED. hahahahahha
Purée and (more rarely) mash are general terms for cooked food
And the cookie thing!! OMG! I have to go bake my husband a plate of cookies! We have been doing it wrong for 23 years.
ReplyDeleteOoopppssss. Sorry babe.
LOL! My husband made cookies tonight... wonder if that's a hint...
DeleteHer "cookie" is #4 on rotation. Not so special...insert now..The Price is Right Losing Horn....lol!!!
DeleteUgh....what a great diet, I think I'll never eat cookies again!
DeleteDays of our Wives....love your name.
DeleteBut you know guys.....I have to confess......I kinda baked my husband cookies before we were married. Well.....I baked the cookies and had them on a plate and he....um.....kinda stole them from the plate.
DeleteDoes that make me a slut? Have I been the whore of Babylon all these years? We did get married, eventually. But he had a lot of cookies before that marriage certificate was signed.
I have never even heard of it called cookie.
DeleteBeing a kindergarten teacher always on the lookout for strange things...it makes me think that this word being used for a female body part makes it much easier for those perverts to get to children.
I will never play Cookie Jar with the kids again. Lol
Rose, Rose, Rose. Cookies before marriage! My word. I think somebody has some repenting to do. Down on your knees -oh wait, bad choice of words- Here, hold my hand, look into the eyes of The Camera Man and tell him all your baking sins! You didn't use any extra butter did you? Was cream involved in this process! Tell me, did it taste extra sweet? It's been so long, tell me, tell me now! I mean, repent. Yeah, that's what I meant. ;-)
Deleteyaegerl Rose, you made my day.
DeleteKody reminds me of a food. Rotten tomotatos.
Does his mighty carrot become pure every-time he goes from house to house?
That comment about Mariah was awful. Seriously, poor girl. Also, they believed they should have been married all this time? Do they not realize that had it not been for how the past was then not only would the three children have been born, but they might not even have met? Who is to say where Robyn would have been now had she choosen not to marry...
ReplyDeleteI don't agree with all the "Robyn pretty much said rape" statements. She said quote "kinda stole". I think pressure is something everybody is faced with at times, and most people can not say they never been pressured into agreeing to something. Also want to point out that even though she called "having sex pre marriage" the biggest mistake, she also called D the light of her life. To me, that came across as her acknowledging that good things come from bad things, and D was that good thing.
What I was mostly offended by was three things. a) the fact thay they forced their children into learning one of the parents sexual history. b) That they forced the children into physically seing her giving that baggie thing that symbolized her purity to Kody - kids don't need to be told about their parents sex life. Sex is private, (which these adults have been super vocal about in the past!!) and that was odd and creepy how she gave it to him. c) The no mention of Janelle, that is just odd to hang one woman out for having a pre Kody sexlife. Why they don't adress this is beyond me. They know it's out there. It's not even close to as personal as the bedroom question I'm dying to know the answers to, but understand why they refuse to answer.
I agree with you on the Mariah comment. That was very nasty and uncalled for!
DeleteI also agree with you on the kids being forced to sit through Robin's stroll through her sexual past (pre-Kody). I think that was a bit much!
I think the thing about this whole incident is that Robin had children with another man, whereas Janelle (who, although was married prior to Kody) did not. So, Kody has three kids looking at him all the time, who are constant reminders that Robin had shared another man's bed. Janelle had no children, so there were no reminders for Kody.
I think this whole fiasco was as much about Kody as it was Robin, in fact, probably even more! I do not doubt for a moment that he did not have her apologize to him over and over before he "married" her in order for her to "regain her purity", since he (and she) feels that he should have been her one and only. Yes, that sounds twisted and just plain messed up, but that's how I see it.
I agree, it wasn't as bad as I had feared. The pictures of her and Dayton as a baby were cute. Her giving that locket thing to Kody creeped me out to the extreme.
DeleteAlso, Hunter is awesome.
I read the awful comment about Mariah, but am playing "catch up" here as have been in hospital, where did it come from? I am appalled. Please tell me that it was not one of the Browns. If someone can fill me in I would appreciate it. I work with young women and improving their self esteem and right now I just want to *HUG* her.
DeleteIt just seems to be some random person on Twitter.
DeleteMeri, the "wonderful" (NOT) mother said 'Thanks for pointing that out. Hmmm' What is wrong with her? She should have deleted it immediately.
It came from Twitter - somebody wrote it to Meri
DeleteRobyn will never know what hit her if the kids rebel because of this stuff. I don't think she has the self-awareness to put it together down the road.
ReplyDeleteI don't either. The older teens are just making jokes behind her back. Even Mariah was not impressed.
DeleteThe little ones of Janelle's and Christine's will blow it off too, or ask their mommy.
Her children, however, will either turn against dad, or her.
My bet is the girls will turn against her.
Remember Michael Crawley creepily talking about this? Yeah, skin crawl time. Yet, at least we could see they were practising what the were sewing. A conversation about such an important topic should not include your own guilt and tears.
Kody, being chaste is not "not being sexual until married."
ReplyDeleteWe are human beings, we have a sexuality. Chaste is abstaining from sexual ACTIVITY until marriage. Saying to abstain from "being sexual" is like telling someone to not be a "male" or "female". Ugh
Thank you. I was thinking the exact same thing. He is such a buffoon.
DeleteKody's dictionary:
DeletePurity: freedom from adulterationly or contamination.
Chastity: Chastity is synonymous with sexualality purity. Chastity means not having any sexualality relations before marriage.
They talk all this talk, and the teens gasp in the Confessional repeat last night when someone asks how Kody can keep up with all these women. Andy Cohen would think that is a fair question.
I love that guy. He seems like he a buffoon, but then strikes like a leopard in the end.
Can you explain "chased"?" Chaste: abstaining from sexuality until married. (tweet from above)
ReplyDeleteKody: I did not have sexual relations with that woman.
Robyn during divorce: I hate the dress and it is stamp dated. You stole it from me!
Kody: I did not have sexual relations with THAT woman.
Robyn: He Forced me to give him... (insert imagination here)
Seriously. I bet Robyn had the same talk of her abusive (using that term lightly) father that wanted just one wife, and momma wanted a fundy mormon. So it had to become his fault.
Part of me wanted to strangle Robyn, call D. J. myself, or the law.
Part of me wanted Robyn to become my sister wife so I could straighten her out.

DeleteIn continuation with my Bravo obsession.
Alexis ?? is called Jesus Juggs by Tamra Barney.
Robyn is Jesus Jaw
Carrot top - "Little fragile bird my ass. Vulture" You are SO right. I've seen this kind of woman in polygamy in the past. Previously married, finds another guy whom she hopes will take care of her, plays the part of a fragile victim so that the guy will jump into rescuer mode, and forever cashes in on her "terrible" experiences from the past, expecting sympathy and breaks from everyone concerned. Acts super sweet and weak, but in reality is a hyena.
DeleteRobyn is worrying about her lost purity; Kody is bedding FOUR wives. Ugh.
ReplyDeleteShe gave her virginity to a guy before she married Kody and now must atone for it (on national tv). Kody's ego gets even more puffed up--ugh.
If I had a dollar for every time the word "family" is tossed out, I could quit my job (and buy a Vegas McMansion).
Kody is actually bedding one wife and four single women, not "wives"
Deletethis story line and kody tweets are just disturbing. What if one of his many daughters is in an abusive marriage and wants to get out of it for her safety. will she be afraid to because she wont feel pure? can kody restore the purity of his daughters if they make a mistake? these people just do not think thru the consequences of things they say. why is kody so hung up on robyn having a prior marriage? didnt he say he had an ick factor when first introduced to robyn? janelle and christine look just checked out over this story line. people who find happiness in second marriages and blended families dont dwell on purity or change childrens names to compensate. this puts a whole new spin on what these so called religious people hearts are about.kody and robyn are officially freaks..the direction of their story is sick
ReplyDeleteIsn't it saying that she made a mistake and could redeem herself and become pure?? So (God forbid) one of their daughters is in an abusive relationship they do can be saved? Their purity can be restored the same as robyn's? They are saying she was pure when she met Kody so the same thing would happen to their children in their faith then.
DeleteRobyn took on the victim role once again. Poor me, my poor kids, at least they have someone to love them now. Makes me so angry she is trying to put out there that their biological father does not love them. I'm sure that he does. He still spends time with them for Pete's sake, I'm sure the miles apart from them make it difficult for him to see the kids in a more traditional way. I'm not new to this blog however this is my first time posting and I am appalled that robin and her shenanigans put her worst mistake ever on national television and then takes to twitter saying she wishes her three kids were kodys is absurd!
ReplyDeleteI don't think my comments made it to the last thread (this always happens to me!).
ReplyDelete1.) Robyn IMO basically said she was raped.
2.) What is wrong with her for saying something slanderous against her ex, in front of their kids? They were just there visiting him in Montana.
3.) I hope her ex comes forward - I wouldn't allow someone to say something slanderous about me & take it sitting down.
4.) I don't care what Kody says...your virginity cannot be reclaimed. You can ask for forgiveness of your sins, but things dont magically go back to how they were down there.
5.) To the commenter on the other thread who said Kody was 50 shades of wrong for saying his boys were "dead to him" I have to respectfully disagree with your sentiments. It was said in jest. There are too many things worth picking on to get stuck on something like that.
6.) Question: WHY was it only a 30 min episode? Does anyone know? I was expecting it to be an hour.
7.) What in the hell was Sobbin wearing? They all make rather...questionable fashion choices but that was atrocious.
8.) Sobbin Robyn looked a litttttle too cozy on the couch with Logan, no?
That's it for now.

Hahahahaha!!!!!!!!! My thoughts EXACTLY!!!!! Best comment tonite!!!! Thankyou!!!!
DeleteWhat great comments Robyn is by far the worst of the lot with her crocodile tears and her fake showing of affection Bet she's glad to out of that trailer park where she resided before lo Kody drug her home
DeleteI'm not sure she said 'raped', I believe I remember her saying "he begged me to" .
DeleteThanks to Anon 1 & 2. =)
DeleteShe used the term that it was "taken from her" which to me, clearly implies a forceable act.
- J
@J only she wasn't raped. She gave her purity away but subtly implied it was all his fault by tagging on "he sorta stole it from me." That wasn't rape; that was her unloading any personal responsibility for caving in to her own desire -- she even talked about desire, rebellion etc. But still threw her ex under the bus. She is an a$$. And an idiot.
Delete@Webs - Agreed, which is why I said it was slanderous.
DeleteI feel she is using a convenient excuse.
In addition to Robyn's story messing up her own kids ...
ReplyDeleteI couldn't believe that the littler kids were there to hear that. It was really, really inappropriate.
There's nothing worse than seeing your mom cry about her past. It is so weak and it makes you so pissed at her. I know because I had a mom like that. I hated her for being weak and they will grow up and resent her for all that crying about her past.
Please do not take the Moniker and post under any name of the Brown children. People will mistake it for the real thing.
ReplyDeleteThank you.

Thanks for watching out for us Sharon. Many folks do, but this is actually a publicity shot from TLC. We have given them credit before, and assumed everyone had seen this before. Sorry for not marking above so you would know.
DeleteRobyn is a walking contradiction:
ReplyDeleteShe "gave" her purity to someone who "begged" for it, yet it was "stolen" from her. She wants to enjoy a honeymoon period with Kody as her parents did, yet she was affected so negatively by their struggles with plural marriage. She was rebelling from her church when she gave away her purity, yet she gave it to a Jessop - a member of a predominant family in her church. She was "pure" before she married Kody, yet she kissed him before marriage. She took on her husband's debt during the divorce to "keep the peace" yet she brutally tarnishes his name in front of her children. She was living a "mistake" with her first husband, yet remained in the marriage for 9 years and had two more children with him.
I am tired of her good girl act. She wants to be the favorite wife and when her other sister wives succeed, her responses are disingenuous (i.e. when Christine passed her real estate exam, observe Robyn's comments before the announcement and her congratulations subsequent to it; when Christine gave gifts to all the kids for Joseph Smith's birthday and Kody expresses how Christine has unified the kids as siblings, observe her subtle reaction; when Meri received her gift to go to Mexico, observe her reaction). Her incoherent rambling of "blessings" and love and making each other better, are not in tune with her face.
She is nothing but a liar who is constantly trying to be a victim (i.e. she took on her husband's debt yet used 3 different names for credit purposes and never paid back her debt; she never had a crib for any of her children yet managed to purchase significant money on items such as under garments; she never owned home (as if to garner sympathy) yet was living (regardless of rent or ownership) in what appeared to be a nice place when Kody was courting her).
Last night's episode really confirmed all of the negative thoughts I had towards Robyn. Just as she suggested that giving up her purity has consequences, so too will sharing her little story in front of her 3 children (the products of her so-called "mistake") and unfortunately the children will have to deal with it.
Also, Robyn needs to speak her age. Saying "you know," "actually," and "like," after every other sentence does not do very much for her.
On another note, this is a great blog! Always well-written, humorous, and respectful.
And, I love Twisted Sister's Keep Calm message!
ReplyDeleteWhile on the subject of that blasted logo......I mean, okay, it's four women. But to my eye it looks like four women joined at the hip, or joined at the uterus for those so inclined to think that way, me included. Where is a REAL PR person for these people?
yes, it's more of a dog paw if you don't think that way.
I think they just stole the three pointed "crown" looking item from the claddagh rings and stuck in another point. Then tried to make believe it DIDN'T look like a dog paw, and made up "four strong women" blah, blah, blah stuff.
How do you abstain from "sexuality"?
ReplyDeleteHmm. From what I gathered last night, by not "having them feelings and stuff."
DeleteFrom the Robyn school of Marble Heads.
I see. So abstaining from not "having them feelings and stuff " makes you chaste. Sounds like to me it makes you Asexual.
DeleteUgh...face palm.
And I'm a practicing catholic.
Abstaining from sexuality...hmmm, not talking about cookies, not kissing, not talking about kissing, not talking about modesty, holding hands (mmm???) not sure, keeping sweet, no making cookies....just random thoughts here!
DeleteBut even if you DO experience "all them feelings and stuff" (thanks Mister Sister) don't worry cuz your purity is renewable! Renewable I tell ya! Just see Krody for help.
LOL. So true, Funky Town.
DeleteKrody did a piss poor job of hiding "all them feelings and stuff" when Christine was in labor and he was kissing all over Robyn.
This family is a joke.
Shame on Robyn; her first three kids just got knocked down further into Solomon's shadow...
So....her ex "took" her virginity and threw it on the floor and had no respect for it??
ReplyDeleteDidn't he marry her when he knocked her up? He didn't abandon her...seems to me he had respect for what happened.
Seems like flighty Sobbin decided she didn't love him so it immediately became all his fault and he "stole" her cookie.
Uh...NO. Buyer's remorse doesn't mean you get to re-write history to turn yourself into a victim at the expense of your children's father. You chose to sleep with him and to all accounts it was NOT rape. Take some damn responsibility...you are NOT a victim.
Color me not surprised by Head-Bobbins "revelation". What is surprising is that while her own Personal Jesus (I do love me some DM!) sat beside her during the couch interviews, she omitted the biggest sins of all. That she'd sold her dignity and stole her children's. Much, much worse Sobyn than what was supposedly stolen or begged off (or whatever in the hell she was rambling about) from you. TLC and parent alienation just seem to go hand in hand these days, ruining lives one family at a time. This time the wake is going to be HUGE considering the size of this "family" Shame on all of the adults and TLC.
ReplyDeleteIt seems as though running up large bills and not paying them is not a sin in their culture. Parental alienation is no biggie either.
DeleteWhile she was up there redeeming herself, why not mention those Victoria Secret Bills and shed herself of all her vile doings?
I suppose next we will be hearing the Victoria's Secret bills are really her ex's too. :S
DeleteI hear ya, Mister Sister. She certainly spent a lot of monopoly money at Victoria Secret, dolling herself up for sexy time with her priesthood holder. That's a lot of effort for a man who threw her purity on the ground. I think the comment up thread about her having multiple personalty disorder was spot on! ;)
DeleteWell she NEEDED that stuff! She had to put a bow on the cookie ya know *wink*
DeleteStop with the cookies! I'm on a diet people! LOL
DeleteMeri needs to just say no to IVF, and enjoy all of the other kids in her "family" IVF is not easy on the body and it's very expensive! As a woman who is unable to have children, it disgusts me to see her dangling this question in front of her husband just to keep him from impregnating Robyn. It's obvious that she is not interested in having a baby full-time in her home. Babies make messes and interfere with her cleaning and TV watching schedule!
I have to watch again since I didn't notice the scene where Robyn was getting cozy with Logan on the couch. I adore all of Janelle's kids. They have their ideas and minds of their own! She proves to all working single mothers that you can do it all!
I'm assuming Janelle's children (at least Maddie, Logan and Hunter) know she was married to another man before Kody. How charming that Robin decided to share her asinine story with the WHOLE family, including Janelle's kids. Wonder if they think their mom was "unpure" when she married Kody? (I think not). Wonder if Janelle feels pressure to throw herself at Kody's feet and tell the whole family that she was "re-virginated" when she married him? (Ummmm...no.).
ReplyDeleteNice way to make Janelle and her kids feel special, Robyn (and Kody... They're YOUR children, too, you POS).
The weight tweet was completely rude. I can't stand how spoiled they both act, but telling someone their daughter is fat is inappropriate. As is telling your child their conception was the "biggest mistake of my life". Plus doesn't Robyn realize being with Kody from day one means no Dayton, Briana, or Aurora?
ReplyDeleteI think Kody made her give testimony. She said something last night that like in their church they believe in confessions. My sister's husband made her get up and confess she spent too much of his hard earned money trying to feed their family. It's a Christian "Church of God" church. She should have made him confess his infidelities at the same time lol. But anyway, I think she did it just to please Kody which makes it all just too worse for me. She didn't for one second consider her children. She just wants to please her man, who's not even hers. She is the mother who brings the wolf into the hen house. She disgusted me last night putting Kody above her own children.
DeleteOh Hopeful I feel terrible for your sister! She spent too much of her husband's hard earned money to feed them? Wow.
DeleteWhy do some churches feel it helps people to confess to the congregation at large? I see nothing positive in it at all.
Hmm. Is it just me, or is there something REALLY WRONG about a grown woman and mother breaking down in self-loathing and regret over a "mistake" she made as (I'm assuming) a teenager? First of all, let's say the secret is that she had sex before she was married. WHO THE HELL CARES?! What is this, a Hawthorne novel?? Jeez. Yes, Robyn is irritating, but she's clearly a basket base. Whose idea was it to make the emotionally unstable-ist Sister Wife of all give a public confession about her past sex life??
ReplyDelete"Whose idea was it to make the emotionally unstable-ist Sister Wife of all give a public confession about her past sex life??"
DeleteMaybe it was down to which wife waved her hand first with a hearty "Me! Me! I'll do it."
"Now should I wear my hair up with my white Wilma Flintstone headband or should I just go long and au naturale.
But I do have to remember to use my water-proof mascara. I am going to do some stellar sobbing tonight."
If Robyn wanted to make this "confession," she should have done it privately with just the older girls and maybe their moms. To announce these sexual events in front of confused little children as if it was some kind of story about a girl was inappropriate. Also, it's up to Kody to discuss sexual matters with his sons--she should not have discussed anything intimate that could embarrass those young boys. Honestly, I can't imagine what she was thinking to get up there in front of the family on TV and say these personal things. I actually felt sorry for her.
ReplyDeleteGasp....if Rob-bed was able to talk 'true confession' about her past, why, maybe all the little children will pick up on her great example and be able to confess any impure thoughts they might have in future church meetings. What a fine, courageous example is Robbed! Oh sing praises to the loyal and true Rob-bed! Ack!
DeleteI very much wonder what Meri's tweet was about? "We can’t lose what we never had, we can’t keep what’s not ours, we can’t hold on to someone who doesn't want to stay, but we still hope."
ReplyDeleteI cannot be sister wife's closet, after this tweet somebody asked if the jewelry could be bought in gold so....what could this mean?
Another tweet from Robin just flat out said 'she wished Kody was the kids bio Dad'. Does she not realize that they would not BE those kids if that was the case? They would be made of different DNA, and have had different early life experiences. Does she not realize that she has just told those kids they are not good enough for her.... and for Kody, since they are not biologically his?
ReplyDeleteMy two children are half-siblings. I would never wish to have changed the circumstances of my older child's birth, even if life was difficult on my own. That is what made him (and me) who we are. AndI love who he is. And, my husband loves both of our children just the same, he says he has two, and that's that.
Exactly.
DeleteWe have his, ours, adopted.
I would NEVER consider my adopted child's heritage a mistake. She will be back peddling about 6 months from now in a almost Mary Tyler Moore sequence of just her and her child and how they have a special bond. Oh, she will butcher that too.
Is this show renewed?
OH MY... I don't know if her ex was a good husband or not, but he is the bio dad of her kids. Does she not realize how hurtful she is being to those kids? Isn't this grounds for the dad to seek custody?
DeleteI am so disgusted with Robyn!! I have always said even if I could go back in time and redo my life I would still make the same decisions I did up until the day my last child was born! Any change might change my kids and I have the perfect kids! :-)
DeleteMy oldest is an Aspie like Dayton, I cried knowing how my son would react if I ever said any actions that brought him to life was a mistake. Shes disgusting!! She said in one of the tweet replies that she spoke with her kids before they filmed......and the kids said it was ok. They are kids!!! If you want to talk about your 'purity' why do it on International tv???? All for the ratings!! So sad.
I would love to hear what a child psychologist would have to say about her story and possible future damage it could do to those poor kids.
How would Dayton feel??? First she throws that boy into that chaotic circus, change his name, and now tell this story of her mistakes which resulted in his life. I get more angry the more I think of that idiot!!!!
I hope her husband mans up and comes out from under his rock and makes his story public! If he doesnt hes no better than her!!!
Just a good ole family show.
ReplyDeleteThe time capsule plot was not even put together in the least. Do you think that Robyn but her purrty in there?
If they are going to be the extremists that they are, there should be nothing happening unless they are wanting a child, and a special no no to one that is nursing. This is also common in other cultures.
Oh my, your comment about whether she put her purrty in there has me laughing a half hour after I first read it. Maybe she threw the broken locket in there for good measure.
DeleteOMG! I didn't even read the comments yet but ill go back. Watching this episode n had to shut it off before I threw something at my own television! What were they thinking about airing that? Ugh!
ReplyDeleteFrom Earlier Discussion:
ReplyDeleteQuestion? Do the Brown's profit from the mug and tank top at the top of this post? Or does the owner of this blog? I don't want to spend money on anything that the Brown's sell...watching the show is enough...please clarify, thanks.
The proceeds of Twisted Sister's cafepress goes directly to charity.
Don't you remember the harlot scriptures read by the polygamy USA dad. This should not surprise anyone that having sex with someone you aren't married to is a big deal. It has nothing to do with virginity.
ReplyDeleteNow I have lost another comment I wanted to respond to. I told Cynical Jinx I was blind tonight.
ReplyDeleteALL are welcome to post on this blog. It is an open blog.
So I am still running around after my husband with cupped hands...
LOL !!!
DeleteBut have you picked up the ribboned heart from the floor yet?
You know, I have not. What should I do? Ideas? He is one quick witted guy, so I need to one up him.
DeletePerhaps you need to bare your soul and tell him every impurr thought you've ever had. Spare no details !!
DeleteThen challenge him to top that.
I will say bad mouthing an ex in front of your children will always back fire. It may not happen for years but kids are not dummies and they will figure it out. I know absolutely nothing about Robyn's ex but he can't be any worse of a parent then she is. Janelle and Christine need to keep their little ones close. This woman is destructive and is willing to take anyone down that gets in her way.
ReplyDeleteChristine tweeted thank you to Sobyn for her testimony. Ive always likde Christine best but I wonder about her judgment on this topic.
DeleteI think Christine has seen it's a tough world out there for a working girl and is being a good sister wife these days...
DeleteAnd Christine needed to tweet that...why???
DeleteA few steps across the driveway and she could tell Sobbin in person, or email, or by phone.
Maybe the order has been given to do damage control duty on Twitter.
Or....Christine is all aboard for what Sobbin did.
is there no end to the damage robyn is doing to this family? do you think janelle and christine are ok with this story line? robyns offensive story could well have offended enough people to ruin the show and the closet business..its stomache churning to see...it may cost them any good will they had left and end the show sooner rather then later..and cost them all financially
ReplyDeleteRobyn's confession was pointless. The older kids were probably embarrassed and have already made up their own minds about their own "purity" and whether they will wait for marriage. Plus no teenager wants to hear about their parents' sexual past. The younger kids will probably have nightmares about their purity being stolen. If losing your purity is completely out of your control (and can be stolen like Robyn's was) the world is a scary place for a young child who is told that her whole self-worth is tied into having your purity. Not to mention the shame the kids from her first marriage probably felt at being the children of a purity-thief.
ReplyDeleteSo I'm watching it right now and I haven't read any comments yet. I hate that she is saying you are only worth your purity, but that is not what I find appalling. Robyn is basically saying her kids were mistakes and her life would have been better if she skipped that marriage (and therefore kids). She mentioned Dayton was a good thing but come on Robyn. You basically just told everyone that your kids were a mistake and you would be better off without them. Robyn, I understand that you regret things, we all do, but the first thing you should have said was I love all my kids and I never regret having them. I am just dumbfounded by everything she said.
ReplyDeleteMy ex told our oldest son that he wishes he had never met me. Son came to me and said "Guess that means he wishes I hadn't been born." Kids are not stupid...
ReplyDeleteNo, they aren't stupid. I felt so bad for her children. And, I am sorry that happened to yours...
DeleteSo sorry Anoym 10:02!! Im sure your heart broke for your child.
DeleteIt will be very interesting if Robin's Ex would step forward and tell his side of these events. We have heard Robin make this man out to be the bad guy, and she the helpless victim, ever since we've seen her. Please! Enough is enough! We get that it was a bad marriage, but as much time as she spends trying to convince us that it was all HIS fault, leads me to believe that it wasn't! I'd like to hear what he has to say, but he probably has enough common sense to just stay the heck away from this whole mess! I am sure he would like to see his kids more, but living so far apart would make that difficult. That seems logical to me.
ReplyDeleteThe thing is, Robin needs to understand that Kody is NOT her older 3 kids' father and he never will be! They have a dad and they have a relationship with him, and they have visits with him in Montana. No matter what happened between them (Robin and her Ex) and no matter how bad she wants us to think he is, he is STILL her kids' dad - and that is not going to change!
Regardless of what happened, she got three beautiful kids out of the deal, and for that reason alone, she needs to be grateful for that man. Without him, she would not have them!
Is Kody a good step father? Maybe he is. But, their dad is still their dad...and Robin and this man's relationship ended several years ago. Therefore, she needs to give up this sob story and move on! All she is doing is hurting her children, and she needs to wake up and realize that!
It seems like her ex is not into plural marriage--or am I wrong? Whoever he is, he must be tolerant because I personally would be getting my kids out of that strange situation...especially after last night's episode. That whole scene should have been played out with just Robyn and a therapist.
DeleteIf I recall, Robyn mentioned once (or twice) that while she and her Ex lived in a Plyg community during their marriage, they were in a monogamous relationship, as he did not take on any additional wives. So, I am gonna say that he may not be into plural marriage because he never took another wife in all the years they were together. But, I'm not for certain.
DeleteI don't care how awful Robyn claims her ex husband is, you don't trash them in front of your kids. It's only going to make them confused and feel bad about themselves, as young as they are. She is something else. She always has to have something to cry about and is such a "victim." Well, she said herself that she gave her virginity to someone who "begged" for it, not that he stole it from her. To me she's just as guilty as he is. I can't with her anymore! Ahhh!
ReplyDeleteWhy is it necessary for Kody to erase Robyns past? is this an excersise for kodys benefit? because it seems the backlash on the MSWC FB may not be worth it..they dont think this story may offend customers..mothers..women..men..children i wonder if christine and janelles marriage will survive this
ReplyDeleteJust when I thought these people could not irritate me any more, Robyn has to get up there with her quivering lip and shaky voice and tell us all (toddlers and school aged children included) the sad, sad story of the opportunistic terrible man who BEGGED for her purity.
ReplyDelete1. Why were all the kids in that room? Even if the story she told had not been over the top inappropriate, the subject matter is not acceptable for the youngest kids.
2. The way she threw the father of three of her children under the bus was appalling. Whether or not he "begged" her for anything, the fact is, she relented, ultimately married him and went on to give him the cookie at least two more times as evidenced by the existence of her daughters. There is a way to tactfully explain that you believe some of your past actions may have been a mistake without wishing away nine years of your life, the nine years in which you gave birth to 3 of your children.
3. The feminist in me was screaming at the TV at the inequity of the importance of Robyn's purity while ignoring the fact that Kody didn't have to save his "most precious gift" for any of his wives. It is no big deal at all that he entered 3 of his marriages essentially impure but heaven forbid one of his wives not be able to present him with intact lady parts. I have done a lot of research into polygamy, etc so I do understand that this is just the dynamic of their male dominated belief system but it still made me angry.
Additionally, was anyone surprised when the reaction of the teen girls (Mariah and Mykelti) was that the speech inspired (or perhaps terrified?) them into holding onto their purity but Hunter's reaction was that yes, purity was sort of important but not such a big deal to lose if you are in a committed relationship. Yeah, not a big deal for him because he is a boy. He will never have to go to a woman he loves, broken locket in hand, asking for redemption over his past poor choices. Begging her to forgive his terrible, terrible judgement and laying down his mistakes at her feet for judgement. Teaching a young girl that her worth is wrapped up in her reproductive organs is appalling to me and that is exactly what Robyn's speech did.
I have to say I find it kind of strange that Robyn's kids are calling Kody dad when he isn't and their dad is still around. It doesn't seem like Kody and Robyn have even been together that long. Could someone tell me the story behind that one?
ReplyDeleteYou need to watch season 1 when Kody was courting Robyn.
DeleteDo they call him dad or does Robyn say dad when referring to kody and David? They call the bonus moms by their first names and they actually earn respect of the kid's.
DeleteI don't think she was thinking she was bad mouthing her ex. I think she thought she was bad mouthing herself. That is more potentially destructive.
In LDS churches all members are asked to give talks. It is not bible thumping like most of us are used to. I would gather the fundamentalist churches also have these testimonies. I think we are focusing on the wrong part of the talk cause the main part was said on the couch by Kody. She broke a rule. There were consequences. Trying to fix on her own led to more consequences. Like any church the true fix is on the savior. We want them to share how different they are and then get mad at them when they do.
Robyn had them calling him Dad before they even got married. it was on season 1.
DeleteThe sister wives don't like to go into each others bedrooms but........ they were ok with Robyn giving this talk??? I am sure they must have not been comfortable with it. Christine looked like she wanted it to be over. blah blah blah..... purity blah blah blah.... stole blah blah....... Kody. I think meri, christine and janelle were all invisibly rolling their eyes at church.
ReplyDeletereally Robyn??? this seems like a family discussion for the older teens and not something you should publicly broadcast. Besides I really don't think your ex could be that horrible, you had 3 children with him. poor guy, she takes your children, gives them a new " father figure" and then slanders you on national TV. OM goodness..... Robyn! Come on Now!
The look on I believe it was Aurora's face during Robin's confession could best be described as "strickened." Wonder which will be the first of her kids to want to live with their father. My husband was peeing his pants over the reborn purity BS.
ReplyDeleteNice to see Janelle has moved on from peanut butter Fritos ..looks like her plate was heaped with the greens!
Was that a "dog paw" necklace Meri placed in the time capsule?...future generation will be pondering the mean of that!
Robyn Sullivan Jessop Brown is totally messed up.
ReplyDeleteisn't there another maiden name she had before Sullivan? i thought Sullivan was her stepfather's name.
DeleteYes, her biological father. Surname is Marck.
DeleteMister Sister and Cynical Jinx have some posts about how David Jessop's family is royalty like Christine. See page 2 below of discussion to get the facts. I did not know this. Speaks of why he has not come out and said his peace. For his family, he will keep his mouth shut. I also read he is not a practising AUB member. he has probably kept his mouth quiet as a respective act to his mother, who is Christine's Aunt.
ReplyDeletedo the husbands that have to fornicate for the FLDS church, yes this is their job, only them can make babies, while the real husband watches, do those men have to get purified and repent to their wives?
Something is wrong with this picture as far as Robyn using this as a manipulation, or I would not make fun of it.
Kody must not have the same regeranational skills as Robyn and her Hymen. Otherwise he would grow a pair and quit being such a hen picked by Meri lizard.
Oh my, this episode was so ridiculous and full - totally repulsed by the whole ulterior motive thought. I don't think any of us would make fun of someone if their were sincere in their beliefs. The bloggers here have always been pretty strict. But the Browns laid it all out there, like leading a lamb to slaughter for ratings.
DeleteI believe this will backfire in their faces.
hmmm
Hyrum stole a hymen! Hyrum stole a Hymen!
Art grabbed the heart! He stole it from the Tart!
He begged and he begged, and she ga..gav...no, he STOLE the heart!
Who stole the heart?
Who stole the heart?
Who stole the heart from the the Heart Palm store?
(Cookie Jar song)
lololol im sure they brainstorm story ideas at these meetings they have just like the MSWC meetings at Mare's..if christine rolled her eyes or showed up..can u imagine what her reaction was when robyn and kody tried to "sell the family" on this idea? and yes i think it will backfire..its just to creepy and personal..and the tweets from kody? its got the ick factor
DeleteI am terribly afraid that "testifying" is quite common in this religion. I think that kody has the authority to assign topics. I don't thinnk that Robyn was fooling around when she said Kody asked her to do this. Their religion is nothing like the ones most of us practice. It is sleazy. It is hurtful to females. It punishes where no real wrong has been commited. If I were Robyn, I would cry too when forced to do this for the cameras. Remember Michael Cawley. His "lessons" for his young kids. These religions are not good for women. It may be too late to "save" Christine and Janelle. They drank the kool-aid long ago. But my prayers go out to all of the daughters in these groups. Ameria was founded on religious freedom. That is very important to me, but right now I wish this group had some oversight.
DeleteI'm not saying this in anyway to take responsibility off Robyn. What she did to her children is horrible. But Anonymous 7:10 a.m. I wholeheartedly agree with you. I have no doubt Kody told her to do this and she did because she loves him more than her kids. It's their whole messed up male dominated religion. I get glimpses of the Kody control freak everytime I watch this show. He demands to be the center of attention of his wives. Christine, Janelle and probably Meri were not worshiping him enough so he went out and found someone who would make him her idol for a little while.
DeleteI guess you can change your virginal status as easily as you can change your last name. Seems to me your purity is worth less if you can keep revamping it when you get fed up with your current lay.
ReplyDeleteOh my gawd ... I pray that I'm never so closed minded that I judge good people that have different beliefs from me so harshly.
ReplyDeleteI enjoyed the show, and I thought Robyn's talk on purity within the context of their beliefs was excellent. Kids should know that sex should only happen in a loving and committed relationship, and sex outside of that can have dire consequences. I'm catholic and made my teenaged son and daughter watch the show. I'm not gonna dissect every word or phrase trying to find a reason to criticize. Having 'the talk' or any talk with your teens is always challenging. Kudos to Robyn for a job well done!
The "talk" was not with just teens. The young children were also present. That is a big part of the kerfluffle arising over this. That, and the shame she expressed about having been married to and borne children with the wrong man.
DeleteIt's one thing to have a frank sex talk with your teenagers, but what Sobbin did was slander her ex husband in front of her children. She didn't even have the decency to preface her talk with how blessed she was to have Dayton, Breana and Aurora. Sure she said Dayton was a gift, but it was an afterthought. Im sure deep down she feels his Aspergers was a punishment for being conceived out of wedlock.
DeleteAlso, big freaking deal she had sex before marriage. Sure she might look back and wish she waited but theres no need to cry about it. She is trying to scare those kids into waiting until marriage. Instead they should have an hobest talk with the older teens and discuss sex, love, why they should wait but also cover birth control and std's
You know though, she did fit into Kody's rules of Sex. You have to be over 18 and graduated from high school. No other requirements.
DeleteShe's only sorry and weepy about it because that is how she gets the Kodster's attention. She's a martyr to the great phallic altar.
I think after last night's show with Robyn and her "purity" speech, I'm officially done with this show. When the show first aired, I found it very interesting, learning about their beliefs and so on. But after seeing the show, and their relationships rapidly decline, that family is a train wreck. They are just as dysfunctional as many families out there but it's times four! I've been reading this blog for awhile and have agreed with so many of the observations and comments. All of the women drive me nuts. I used to like Janelle, but even Janelle seems to have bought into all the materialism of late. But, as disgusted as I get with the women, Kody is the biggest failure in these marriages of all. I believe all four women act as they do because of Kody's failure to assure them of their importance to the overall family. Isn't there a comment on the net somewhere that Kody said none of his wifes satify all of his needs? Clearly he does not meet their needs either. If he was a better husband (suppor system) to each, Meri wouldn't still be suffering from the insecurities and jealousies she reminds us of. She would believe that Kody loves her as much as the other wives, whether she produced one child or six. And Janelle? Oh dear, she had the strength to leave that loser once and start a life of her own with her children at the time. But he sucked her back in. How sad for Janelle. She is a beautiful, intelligent woman and there would undoubtably be a man out there that would find ALL of her loveable, not just her ability to procreate and balance a checkbook. The fact that just shopping for a mattress was so incredibly painful and akward to watch tells you that Kody obviously no longer (or ever did) thinks of Janelle as a beautiful sexual being who he believes he is married to in the eyes of the church, and should be lavishing love and sexual attention on as well. Janelle claims that she believes what they have is awesome, but her weight tells another story. No one that was in her physical state is truly happy. What she is feeling on the inside, is showing on the outside. I'm not being mean. Most women eat their feelings, good and bad. When you really dig, someone that is extremely overweight is usually dealing with deeper issues than food. Let's see, Christine, pretty, funny, and also disgraced on national television by Kody commenting that at first he was digusted by her and how she ate. Do you suppose that ever leaves the back recesses of someone's brain? Robyn, infuriating, idiotic, pathetic mess of a sister wife. I don't really believe her problems come from her ex-husband and the conditions married under but the fact that she grew up in a plyg situation with a father that never once claimed her as his daughter when and where it mattered. It was like she was one of his dirty little secrets. All five of these individuals have so many deep-rooted problems, maybe the next direction the show should take is some serious counseling for all five, and then the kids to aide in the healing from Robyn's little confession! Yes, that is something I would still tune in to see, REAL counseling for all five! Keep up all the great posts! Even if I do decide to pull the plug on this series, I'll continue to ready the blog. And maybe TLC will wise up and pull the plug on all of it, or go back to reality tv. Now there's a concept!
ReplyDeleteWell said Anon 12:15 am!
DeleteIt is so sad that what I half-jokingly predicted to be her secret last week, actually ended up being the secret. So sad. She is definitely not the brightest bulb on the tree.
ReplyDeleteAnyway, if you can not sit through it all because either you fall asleep or risk damaging your TV set, I took upon myself the painstaking task of transcribing her chastity speech. Enjoy!
I am actually going to speak to the kids about the biggest mistake in my life and I am actually pretty nervous about it.
So I'm gonna tell you t this two stories about two girls who had what they did with their purity and what happened.
And these are true stories.
When I was a teenager, I was very chasted. I was actually what a lot of people would consider to be a good girl. And then as
I got older, and into my senior year and into college, I really started to question my faith. I don't know I think I hit that
point when a teenager questions [Kody: everything] uhum....
You have this purity, and this purity has to do with your body and this purity has to do with your mind and this purity has
to do with your heart, and it it is very very very precious it is priced above all jewels.
Continuing:
ReplyDeleteWell yeah and it's like I remember at that time in my life I was sitting there going oh gosh I sit here, and you know I've got
a cute guy I'm da-in' and I don't kiss him and I don't you know I am not doing anything with him physically and I have my body has
these urges and and he is you know I know this would be something that would be part of our relationship would be fun. I felt
like I was missing out on something by not you know endulging in the physical aspects of a relationship with a boy. And I started
questioning my faith and whether or not I really believed in it. Because you know I saw my parents struggle you know with plural
marriage and I was questioning them as people you know the parents aren't always right they're not God anymore you know and
you start breaking away and figuring out what you believe on your own. I think I was kind of a little bit angry because I had been
so good for so long and it just didn't seem to be getting me anywhere haha.
She took her purity..... and she gave it to someone who begged for it. And I spent the next nine years trying to make it right.
And I put everything, everything I could into that relationship and into that marriage. Everything.
At church today actually I'm gonna be talking to the kids about the biggest mistake I ever made in my life.
So I'm gonna tell you t this two stories about two girls who had what they did with their purity and what happened.
And these are true stories. Every single one of you has this really great gift and it's called your purity. And it's yours
to give away to someone else. When you have your purity, and you give it to your husband and your wife when you're married
then you have a lot of happiness and a lot of blessings.
So I was nineteen when this when I decided to to move and I packed up my little car and I moved to Montana. My parents weren't
there, my foundation wasn't there, I wasn't going to church, I was questioning everything about what I had believed in in the past
and and I was still in this this stupid place in my head where I wasn't letting God in I was gonna I kinda I have to say I was
rebellious.
One girl she took her purity and she gave it to someone who begged for it. And he begged for and begged for so she gave it away.
She gave away her purity. And he didn't respect it. He threw it on the ground. He broke it. Because I was just in a weird spot I
started da-in' this kid and and I actually made a mistake and I changed my standards. Uhm, this kid that I started da-in'uhm was my first
kiss. And there was only one thing that he wanted aha and uhm ahhh so I got pregnant.
And she spent her whole life trying to get it back but she you only have one. And it him broke her heart. And she spent her whole life
being sad about it. And then when she finally found the guy that she was supposed to be with she had to go to him and say look I gave away
my purity to someone else he kinda stole it from me. And this was supposed to be yours. But I gave it to someone else and I'm so
sorry... I'm so sorry I gave it away to someone else... And it broke her heart. In our religion we believe in being chasted before marriage.
It's very impor-ant you know Kody and I were very chasted before we were married uhm it's no different if you are like it a first wife
with a husband uhm you should be chasted that is a belief of ours.
Last part:
ReplyDeleteYou know telling this story in church is very impor-ant to me because it is a tennent of our faith, to be chasted. And it is a tennent of
our faith to repent if you make a mistake. The mistakes that I made were very challenging for me, and very very painful for me and actually
led me down a path of nine years of a lotta hell.
This is yours and this is the most ultimate gift and it is yours. You know, when I found out I was pregnant I was devastated at that point
I was I was really scared. I was trying so hard so hard.. to love my husband at the time.
You know, when I found out I was pregnant I was devastated at that point I was I was really scared. I was scared of...a of my family, of
rejecting me I was scared of what my church was gonna say and it was very impor-ant to me to to take responsibility for my actions
because I had made this mistake and so when he asked me to marry him I said yes. I was trying soo hard so hard to love my husband at that
time. My little Day-on was the best thing that coulda ever happen to me. It was, I'll never regret him. Day-on was my happy place.
And hemeant so much to me. And I have a special bond with him because he was my sweetheart during these times that was so hard. I wouldn't
wish those experiences on anyone and I don't want our kids to go through that. I made this promiss to God, years ago that if I could ever
tell my story as much as it makes me vulnerable and exposes myself I would always tell my story to help other kids make right choices.
I have a second story of another girl. Another girl who took care of her purity. She knew how valuable it was. And so when she found the
right man she was able to hand him her purity and say this is yours and this is the most ultimate gift and it is yours...
I believe that Kody and I were supposed to be together from day one...and because of my mistakes I spent years and years and years trying
to make it right and actually not with the person I was supposed to be with. I ask each one of you to decide today choose today no matter
what is going on in your life to save your purity and protect that purity and honor it. Because it will bring you a lot of joy and a lot of
happiness.
Thank you thank you thank you! I was going to do that for the blog too, even have my TV on closed captioning.
Deleteda-in'
da-in'uhm
Anyone see a name here?
And it him broke her heart.
Did it break her heart, or did him break her heart?
Well, after reading that, I must say, what in the heck what that little girl crying about? She wasn't watching the couch sessions too. I firmly believe that my kids would not have any idea what she was talking about! What a total mess of a speech! I feel a little better knowing that unless those little girls are keen to the world and vision according to Robyn's speech patterns, they only gleened they were getting the whole chasitity speech again. No way did Breanna understand that. One fine actress she is.
Now the heart and the cupping of hands....
I can see the older ones going EW! EW! TMI! I don't care what my dad gets! For gooness sake, we don't even want to know where he gets his energy from, much less Robyn giving it up to him.
Lord have mercy. If that is Kody's idea of a dream date, Christine ought to take one look at that lesson and start defining her own self worth NOT from the attention Kody Brown gives her.
One trainwreck.
No, a Vulture feeding.
I guess if you are a bird, public speaking isn't your thing.
I too thank you. I tell you what, another thing that has me convinced it was all a set up was that once she shut up, there was no q and a with the kids, no preface of defining the terms, you know, lesson plan. Christine does do a great job teaching lessons. She is many things, I know, but she does get accolades for her child rearing ability. Probably did all that and cook supper of all of them. Really, she never got a break.
DeleteThanks lobotomized! I was so distracted when she tossed that little heart thing on the floor and stomped on it that I lost track of what she was saying... It's even crazier (creepier?) when you can read the whole thing.
DeleteGreat Job Lobotomized!
DeleteThank you so much!!!
DeleteY'know I was chatting online with a friend of mine about this ep (he doesn't watch the show) and explained that she was basically laying down a guilt/head trip on not only HER kids but ALL of the kids (I'm pretty sure the teens, Mykelti included, are immune) and he said "Damn - that's f*cked up."
Truer words were never spoken.
Look, IMO teens these days (and in the past) are gonna be curious and want to have sex. The important thing is to make sure they are aware of and use protection to stay safe and not get pregnant. We are all sexual beings - it's unrealistic to think otherwise. Jeez Robyn.
Thanks Lobotomized...you could be a court reporter. I think Robyn and Kody drank the whole jug of Koo-Koo Koolaid this time. It is OK to be religious but I don't get the making up of stuff to fit the bill. Part of the time she talked about "I" and part of the time she talked about "she". That would be confusing enough for the little girls who looked a little stunned. Heck, sometimes it was hard for me to follow her rambling.
DeleteSo it looks like her life began when she met Kody....hmmmm...so she never was a Marck, a Sullivan or least of all a Jessop. Is Jessop still the legal last name of her children? Unless Kody adopted them, I would say it is.
I liked Hunter's reaction the best. Perhaps going to school with non-plyg kids will have a positive influence on their lives. It doesn't mean they love their family any less, it just means they see how other people live and perhaps prefer that lifestyle.
Kody's brother was a monogamist and it is sad he passed away so young. In the olden days, that is what they would do by marrying the widow and taking in the children. Times are so different now with women having their independence and not having to rely on a man.
Boy, Robyn and Kody are still in the honeymoon phase. The other three wives must feel like chopped liver at times, he doesn't talk about them the way he gushes over her. No wonder they are jealous.
So, she bounces around from first person POV to second person POV and then even third person POV that I couldn't tell if she was telling three stories....there's two girls.....one gave her.....if you give your.....I regretted.... WTH. She is really a country bumpkin, isn't she?
DeleteFinally saw the episode! WOW, Robyn! She's such a moron. I can't even believe she went there, and the way she was throwing those hears down, it's just ridiculous. The whole thing about saying it was the biggest mistake of her life. so she's actually saying Dayton, her son was the biggest mistake of her life since. The way her daughter was looking at her...I can't even imagine how she could stand there and speak like that about these kids' father. I just don't believe she cares about these kids' feelings if she can stand up there and preach this BS.
ReplyDeleteEveryone looked so uncomfortable while she was speaking.
ROBYN, DUDE, no matter how much you'd love to be a virgin you aren't and you weren't when you got 'married' to Koduche, time to get over it and stop talking so badly bout your ex husband, the father OF YOUR CHILDREN!
She made it seem like he almost raped her or forced her to have sex. So dramatic Robyn!!
What these people will do for Tv...
Yes, it takes two to Tango! Two consenting adults wanted to be intimate and one got pregnant. Both were in the mood and couldn't keep the hand off each other. Robyn's ex husband could have left her pregnant and alone but he choose to marry her.
DeleteHow old are Robyn's kids?
ReplyDeleteDayton is 13
DeleteAurora is 11
Breanna is 8
I have a daughter who is 9 and I would never allow her to listen to Robyn's speech at church. That is such an inappropriate topic for children who are so young.
DeleteSo Robyn wasn't a teen when she got pregnabt. She was 21
DeleteShe didn't even meet Kody til she was what - 30? 31?
DeleteSo she was gonna save her Fig Newton that long??? In a culture where women are encouraged to marry young...?
Yeah right.
she's AT LEAST 33--left home at 19 and the oldest kid is 13. Still young enough for a few more kids.
DeleteWhat's even more sad and scary is that the other wives had said how emotionally intelligent Robin is. If they think Robin's blubbering is a healthy way to express emotions, then...I just don't know what to say.
ReplyDeleteI do know that I would never teach my children that the only thing worthwhile about them is their sexual purity. With that kind of pressure I can see how molestations thrive. What child would report being molested when they are taught that they are no longer worthy if someone takes their purity? I'm not saying the children are sexually abused in the Brown Compound. I'm talking about the environments in these cults like the AUB and FLDS. I recently read Krystin Decker's book(related to Christine Brown I believe) and a major theme is the devaluation if self when molested and raped. Very sad.
The whole concept that having 4 wives because of a religion, but yet we are just like any normal family (except the clothes)is just wrong. this robyns secret is too close to creepy doctrine they keep under wraps. annon 2 11 u are so right
DeleteRobyn should hand Sol over to Kody and Meri - get a job and learn how to pay her bills. She should clean up her credit, pay her debts and get that lien off her freebie house. Then take a cooking course and start hitting the gym. This woman wastes so much energy on rehashing emotional nonsense that she has none for the really important issues in life of being an adult who leads and supports her family. I don`t care to know what your sexual history is, but your version of it makes me realize what you are - a liar who cannot accept your part in the choices you made that you have come to regret. Put on your big girl panties and stop expecting everything to be handed to you by one man - especially that man. Grow up, stop crying and become that strong woman you could be. Then we will understand all the blessings your lifestyle brings.
ReplyDeleteI got married as a virgin in an lds temple. And guess what? My marriage lasted not even 1 year? Why? Because I was very naive and not nice to be around yes I was a virgin. When I got married to my second husband I didn't have "the gift" anymore but I was mature and nicer and guess what? Over 10 years and we are still married and happy.
ReplyDeleteMost brilliant post ever! I am so shocked and happy to see you taking responsibility for your part of the first marriage not working! I was also a young virgin who was not nice to be around...we're still married because he has the patience of Job...but my not being so nice to be around has had a much bigger impact on our relationship than my sexual history did...
DeleteThat said, too many partners, too many bad experiences, and exposure to life threatening diseases are great reasons to save your sexual life for when you are older and committed. I just really liked your post.
What a bunch of hypocrites. What about Kody's purity? BOTH my husband and I were each others first and only because that is apart of the personal values we share. If you truly value your "cookie" why share your bed with a legally married man with two baby mommas. Perhaps just the parents need a sermon on sex and spirituality. They can all do better and set a better example.
ReplyDeleteI wonder if this episode was another attempt to show how 'normal' they are...Robyn wasn't 'pure' when she went into this family. Many people aren't when they find their 'soulmate'
ReplyDeleteWe may have snarky comments about the Sister Wives and Kody but it is not like anyone hates them. I see many come to Mariah's defence about the awful tweet and I agree it was not very nice.
ReplyDeleteI just saw a video on MSN about a wrestling competition. A young man who looked like he might have cerebral palsy was placed in the ring. The other wrestler shook his hand, then started to wrestle. He got down on the floor and pulled the boy's arm over him. Then he pulled his body over on him. He kicked and wiggled like he couldn't get up. The call was made and the young handicapped man won. Someone came and lifted him up and everyone cheered and cheered. I could see Logan or Hunter doing that same thing.
As a side note, there is a surgery out there which "restores" a woman's "virtue." It is called Hymenoplasty. It is available in western countries and in Lebanon, etc.. (I found out about it last year when my husband and I were visiting his family in Lebanon... Somehow, the subject came up.) It is popular amongst Middle Eastern women who desire to have something of an Amish "rumspringa" before they settle down, but still wish/need to be "virgins" on their wedding night.
ReplyDeleteHowever, I doubt this is what Robyn was referring to when she talked about reclaiming her purity.
I agree with the others...so sad that Robyn did that in front of her kids. Has anyone seen a picture of Robyn's ex-husband? I tried to Google but didn't find anything. So curious who this purity-stealing, worst mistake of my life guy is. I have noticed lately that Robyn seems to dominate conversations on the show.
ReplyDeleteActually I have. We won't post one, however. We will give him his privacy since he has not asked for all this. We can talk about this because Robyn opened the door, and, let's face it, we are all appalled by her doings.
DeleteMister Sister, I respect your stance for not posting the picture. I'd like to know what he looks like too but not at his expense. You're right. He didn't ask for any of this and I truly hope he comes out to his own defense. Robyn could have told this story in a way that did NOT trash the bio dad. Especially since the kids just returned to Vegas after spending time with him. Also, from what I understand, the ex filed for divorce first citing irreconcilable differences. Maybe it was her deep spending habit and debt that pushed him to the edge? I don't buy it for a moment that she was rebellious, doubted her religion, and met some "boy". She moved to Montana and met a man from a prominent polygamist family. Too coincidental.
DeleteI'm tired of the "woe is me" victim shtick that is Robyn's mantra. The marriage wasn't her fault, the debt wasn't her fault, the divorce wasn't her fault, poor me, poor me.
We are not buying her story.
DeleteShould read:
Was directed to go to find _________ or ________ to marry.
Found one! Roped him in.
Oops! Not enough money, he didn't want to stay in FM.
off to another!
LOL
so Mister Sister would you say Robins's ex is better looking than Kody?
Deletejust your own opinion... who does he look like?
Honestly, he was a good looking guy. I can't remember specifics, I have had more than one PC burn up, and I am NOT good at saving on another hard drive unless it's my precious genealogy. Cynical may see this and remember!
DeleteSeriously the guy could have three horns on his head and if he wants to legally marry you, work while you stay at home, and be monogamous, I'd take him over Kadouche. *snort*
DeleteRobyn's ex is a VERY good looking guy. Has dark hair and nice features.
DeleteOff topic a bit, but nonetheless relevant as to how TLC reality show families implode post-filming: There's been some new drama this week with Jon and Kate and a sweet & short chronology of the crap they've put their family through since filming ended. The article indicates she now makes her living running a coupon website. http://news-briefs.ew.com/2013/08/27/kate-gosselin-sues-jon-gosselin/

She says she felt "guilty" when she got together with Kody because he wasn't her first. OH COME ON!! Stop feeding this "ruined woman" bullsh*t to your impressionable teenage daughters and start teaching them that one regrettable hook-up does not a tragedy make.
ReplyDeleteAMEN. I am a teacher. I was screaming at the TV. She is something else. I see parental alienation far too often. Karma is a b*tch. She better watch out.
DeleteThink Janelle and Christine are on to her by now?
I have to say, if the Brown family ever says on one against this blog, I am one poster that will send them home with their tail between their legs.
ReplyDeleteThe posts about the deaths of Winn Brown and Curtis Brown were not open for comments. That speaks volumes about the dignity of the bloggers here.
I doubt that Kody and Company would do the same if it meant they would get attention.
I have always felt like Cynical Jinx and Mister Sister, at times, SO WANT TO TELL US SOMETHING they know but have deemed it inappropriate. Read the other blogs folks, they don't hold back.
I just saw a preview for next weeks confessional.
ReplyDeleteAt home, PC.
I did the research and found the marriage of Robyn and David Jessop was in June 1999 and the birth of their son was March 7, 2000. I have counted on my fingers many times and I am quite sure that is a time span of 9 months. Something about her story and the dates doesn`t ring true unless she got pregnant at the end of May and knew it by the end of June and got wed immediately and then had an overdue pregnancy. Methinks her confession was a complete lie.
ReplyDeleteGreat work! Things are getting curioser and curioser.
DeleteWOW. That is a bombshell IMO - given the fact that Robyn actually SAID she got preggers and THEN had to get married.
DeleteThis would make a great blog post on its own...of course I'm sure that just like the Nauvoo Tour where Kody AND the guide out-and-out lied about being prohibited from the museum because they're plygs was utter BS and there was NEVER a retraction submitted. So they'll just NOT say anything.
This comment has been removed by a blog administrator.
DeleteWell Fudge I did not mean to delete yours Dakota, please repost. I was going to answer it. I am sorry!
DeleteActually, the human gestation period is 266 days from conception, which puts Dayton's concenption at June 15. Of course, not every pregnancy is exactly 266 days, but it makes Robin's story suspect.
DeleteThat is really weird and awfully close. Generally speaking, you miss your period and start freaking out and hoping you get it soon. If you're a super-religious girl who is very concerned about having to explain to your family that you're no longer a virgin, you're probably in denial for at least a week or two before you accept the fact that you are indeed pregnant. Then you have to tell the parents and a wedding has to be arranged. Even a simple wedding would take at least a week or two to arrange.
DeleteThis leads to a few possible conclusions:
1) Robyn lied and she got pregnant on her honeymoon; OR
2) The wedding was already planned and she happened to get pregnant right around the same time -- so she had already agreed to marry her ex and the baby was a bonus.
I find it really improbable that in the course of a couple of a few weeks, she would have realized she was pregnant and gotten married. I agree with Mister Sister, it's so close to call that there was absolutely NO reason to let the cat out of the bag. The children did not need to know that she had premarital sex (if this is actually true).
Actually that has basis, but also does not take into account variances. see
Deletehttp://pregnancy.about.com/od/duedates/a/Pregnancy-Due-Date-Calculator.htm
40 week is very common. Takes into acct swings in dates and ovulation. The 266 is based on a 28 day month.
What was the date in June of their marriage? Grear investigative work !
DeleteRobyn is digging herself a bigger hole each time she tweets about this topic of regretting kody not the bio father of her children. She brought this on herself and i would imagine its causing the other wives grief as the the family is dealing with such an emotional time right now.She is offending so many combined families right now..she is getting twitter and MSWC FB backlash. What has she done for this family besides cause them pain and discomfort since she came into this family..o, and money
ReplyDeleteI love genealogy, too and always read when you make something on the families. Still waiting for that BIG genealogy you promised us!
ReplyDeleteOne thing that irked me about Kody Brown when I first watched the show, well not then but after you folks started cluing us into them.
He said his family was not Fundamental Mormon.
He acted liked it was the farthest thing from the moon.
He lied. When you showed us his mother was an Allred, his grandparents and greats were polygamists, and reading all your posts he made me mad.
I am a true orphan. I am happy, so no probs, but I actually grew up in several foster homes.
I would give my left foot growing up to be in a home, even a polygamist one.
Why would he deny his culture?
Condolences to the family. Sorry for their loss. It must be hard to lose your brother and father so close together.
ReplyDeleteI'm sorry, should have posted this earlier. We request that any condolenses to the family be posted where they might see them. I suggest http://www.haskellfuneralhome.com/obits/obituary.php?id=345061
DeleteThanks!!
I wonder if the reason she didn't mind saying that it was all a mistake is because they (maybe) have a belief that those kids ARE Kody's? Aren't they sealed to him? So she believes that if she had met him first, they still would have had those three kids together.
ReplyDeleteAlso, her girls creep me out. To me their behavior is those of girls who have either been abused or have no male attention and are trying so hard to get it.
Can someone explain sealing to me. Does it mean that the kids will spend eternity with Kody and not with their bio-dad? I'm confused about the Mormon/FLDS afterlife. Does every family get their own heavenly "island" apart from other families?
DeleteMy feelings about Robyn and her purity speech has pretty much been covered by everyone else on here.....I thought it was very disrespectful to her children to do that....
ReplyDeleteOn a different note, did anyone else crack up when Kody about broke his neck looking up at Meri when she told him she needed him to be involved in the discussions about her having a baby??? The nerve of her to call him out on something!!!
