Imo, Kody never seems to plan ahead or contemplate future problems. I think he rushed trying to get enough wives to fulfill the number needed for his heavenly goal. Also, I believe he felt like macho man jumping from bed to bed with multiple women. When babies started coming back to back, it proved what a virile man he was. Ego, baby! Then somewhere along the way, he realized somebody was going to have to bring in some money. He doesn't seem to have a very strong work ethic. I think the women eventually worked out their roles among themselves. As long as they scraped by, Kody didn't worry too much about it. He was happy cruising around in his little sports car while the kids were eating stale bread. Each mother became responsible for the needs of their own children. Kody could drop in for his husbandly duty and play with the kids before their bedtime. That was enough at the time. As the children got older, I don't think Kody knew what he needed to do as a father figure. He didn't have a clue. Then along came Robyn....

[@juliannekenkel6529]

An item that could be addressed is that Meri seemed groomed by her mother, Bonnie, to live a plural life. Meri then role modeled her plural role like her mother who was ‘head wife/first wife’. Meri likely felt pressure to add wives but appreciated the wife be young & more immature so Meri could likely be the one with more control & mean spirit that a new wife must not just be obedient to Kody but also be subservient to herself. Janelle coming into the family seemed more Kody’s decision alone even though M&J were friends so Meri didn’t actually share in finding her. Janelle was older than Meri & more educated than Meri & Meri’s former sister-in-law so K&J becoming married could have come as a bit of a surprise to Meri. Meri’s anger, jealousy & outcast in the decision was not bearable. Meri didn’t really like polygamy it seems but did not want to feel ashamed or shame from her own mother that Meri couldn’t live the life. It’s possible that now that Bonnie has passed away, Meri, feels more comfortable leaving Kody than she did while Bonnie was alive.

[@Ripleys_mom]

The statement that he chose to end a relationship with a very young girl is BS she hose to end it. He got with Christine because of her family connections. But he sure was loving to her ,Christine. What a pack of deceit he spins,Wow!

[@taramama6658]

Wow I’ve actually thought this before.

[@eumesma4725]

I mean ...

[@loristone8860]

My takeaway from that episode is that Mary was as infatuated as Kody was with that young girl and as the wedding drew closer it became more and more obvious to Kody and even possibly to the teen as well. It would have enraged Kody who has the emotional maturity of a gnat and a complete lack of understanding of how sexuality is more than merely an off/on switch. For Kody to have to confront the possibility that HE is not the center of his wife’s universe would be a severe ego blow. As for a sheltered teen? She could have been frightened by a situation that she wasn’t ready for either. Any one of the three of them could have set fire to the powder keg that was their relationship.

[@thebackpackingbookwyrm]

Meri is SO predatory too. Not only has she encouraged Kodys behavior but she essentially delivered other women to him by love bombing and manipulating them.

[@megnakamura7652]

You are absolutely right. And once the women became engaged to Kody she turned on them. She and Cody were very close with Jenelle. They spent a lot of time together but once Jenelle “married” Cody Meri froze her out. Jenelle felt like an unwanted houseguest. She pretty much recruited Robin but as soon as Robin became engaged to Cody Meri got very jealous and started complaining about how much time he was spending with Robin. Meri is just as vile as Kody.

@megnakamura7652 yes exactly and unfortunately I do think that is the new role Robyn will likely be in going forward if they continue to practice polygamy. The role of "finding new wives for Kody". Imagine being approached by them.. it's literally so gross!! 🤢

Christine wasn't uncomfortable about Kody and Merri going after an underage girl, she was just jealous of the girl. Given the chance she immediately wanted back in with Kody and Merri. She is just as gross as they are.

[@DC-cv9ch]

It's human trafficking of women in a way without money but by trade offs and business deals. Benefiting men only. Poor children born into these plural marriages for young men offer them up only as slave labor. Girls have value to be married off. It's all just as cultists as Warren Jeff's cult.

Shame on TLC

[@cubemissy]

I’m starting to get in the mood to rage-watch the series from the beginning. I must have overlooked so much over the years, because I was snowed by them in the beginning… edited to add: How adorable was Christine in the first season?!?

[@sharonrudy470]

It’s so funny that you say that. I DID start from the beginning. Christine was adorable. Now I see that Robyn has always been his favorite. I think that he married the OG 3 due to whatever, but with Robyn, he fell in love with her. He was old enough to know what he wanted in a wife and he got it. But I see the way that he looks at Robyn and he looks like a lovesick puppy.

But then it wasn’t important how he contracted it. This family’s only treasures are Christine & Janelles children.

[@kimnelson2488]

So glad you found these old episodes to expose the contradictions

[@MsNooneinparticular]

Okay Meri Maxwell. That's basically her role: find & groom the "nubiles" like Ghislaine. 🤢 Kinda gross that Xtine was mostly bothered by how cute & "threatening" she was rather than that she was a literal child. Child marriage is legal in most of America with a parent's consent also. They can adopt them like Steven Tyler did or just do it openly in some places. 23 states have a minimum age of 16; two states = 15 and 5 have no minimum age at all. Evil.

[@tamathachandler5482]

At 6:06, the next paragraph: "But my happiness was short-lived. One day, completely out of the blue, Kody called me up." What follows is the reason I knew he and Robyn were both lying about never having discussions about the other wives with other wives. He's always done it! Wonder what else they lie about?

[@christinemynahbird7647]

I just finished a rewatch of season 2 episode 11: Kody says there has never been a birthday forgotten and Sobyn says she thinks it’s important with so many children you want them to feel special. (REALLY SINCE WHEN???) Also noticed with all the sit downs Sobyn has displaced the wives, she I Always sitting next to Kody. Wow what difference 15(?) yrs makes😮

[@janshe3597]

Really, Kody forgot about his own son Gabe’s birthday. During CoVid, when Robin contracted CoVid, Kody phoned Gabe to ask about his experience with CoVid, since Gabe had already had it. Gabe said my own father didn’t even remember that it was my birthday, the only thing that was on his mind is Robin. Janelle phoned Kody to let him know that he hurt Gabe, so Kody phoned him and wished him a Happy Birthday. Too little too late Kody, he is a disgusting piece of crap…

[@kylethomas9141]

It is BS on both their Parts!! They have proved throughout they don’t care about any of the other kids.. Whether it be Birthdays or Major Surgery.. Kody had to be with Sobyn while Christine was giving Birth!! 🤬 So, really.. it’s All of the Family that take a back seat to Kody and Robyn.. So sick! 😢

I have only seen a handful of the Sister wives show, but I really enjoy hearing the gossip and knowing that these women have discovered real lives and gotten out of that horrible situation of polygamy and dealing with a jerk like Kody. Him and the newest only wife left really deserve each other. Lol I applaud Christine the most for being a strong women and doing her own Thang! 😊 Get It Girl! ❤

When you watch Robins kids interact with other wives and kids they usually have arms crossed, stand offish... Usually kids are non-judgemental and friendly to everyone unless they have heard their parents talk "crap" about others and then they are torn between acting normal for a kid and doing what they think their parents expect...

So if I did my math correctly, she said this was during their first year of marriage and meri was 19 and kody 21 when they married. So they were 20 and 22years, Christine was 19 and And this girl was 17 just turned 18? they were really young also, I dont think its so bad you make it seem to be. Also because of the religion nothing would have happened before marriage. only the intent behind the whole thing is pretty sad. If the girl was like 15 or 16 that would have been too much

I am absolutely disturbed by the whole situation. It’s disgusting the fact that he can’t take care of any of the family properly, lies about it, and keeps lying- just for show Contant and then when Mary is the legal wife, she just backs Cody up so he has help and then when Robin is his legal wife she does the same interesting pattern there isn’t it? It’s sick and twisted totally messed up. The girl that got away did the right thing for herself she probably didn’t like the idea of plural marriage I can’t even begin to wrap my brain around how somebody so horrible and then, when his ego and fame gets to his head, he goes berserk and is out of his head nuts abandons his original family, and decides to stay with Robin and her kids because they obey him like slaves, and the others decide to have their own mind and decide for themselves what they want to do with their life. Meanwhile, Robin‘s oldest daughters are freaking being held captive and brainwashed into thinking that this is the way life is, in the way it needs to be you know as awful as this sounds maybe Cody abandoning the others was a blessing in disguise, because he could’ve easily brainwashed the others as well. If they weren’t so strong minded, but they’re strong minded because of their mothers. Thank God for that, but he knew he couldn’t control them, so he abandon them, so in a way it’s a blessing- or else the others would be in the position that Brianna and her sister are in being held captive and brainwashed as property. Mykelti really needs to wake up and see this for what it is. Her father is a horrible person and maybe he’s. A pathological liar? What do you think Katie?
