Sister Wives #13 - (You Are the Leader) - Therapist Reacts

[@harleyperri5731]

I forgot Robyn kicked the dogs….ugh she’s the worst. I’m glad Kirk caught that. He’s starting to see her.

[@lNoWayAroundItl]

That was a total character realization. But she blames everything on her fear, not what appears to be control issues.

[@blackswangothika8920]

I’m so glad you mentioned the hair flipping! lol. From a psychologist point of view what’s your take on the hair flipping? Why does he want us.. the viewing audience to see him always flipping his hair?? To show he has enough hair to flip? To show how glorious he thinks his hair is? Funny that now he has had hair plugs put in it looks like. He is really tied to his hair!! Lol

[@blackswangothika8920]

And for me… having been around the 80s rock n roll bands and married to one… now they had hair!!! Lol

[@blackswangothika8920]

Yep. Robyn is not an animal person.

[@blackswangothika8920]

Yep. She kicked the dog lifting it up and away. Kody loved the dog and cried when his dog died in early seasons but due to Robyn hating animals he changed and when he went to Janelles told her her dog could no longer sleep with them in her bed. She chose the dog! lol.. like she said “ gonna choose the kids.. gonna choose the dogs every time” good for her.

[@denisia1111]

Not dogs but Robyn kicked Meri's incredibly sweet yellow lab. The dog was a gift from Janelle to Meri but became the family dog 🐕, he was extremely smart and gentle with all the kids. The fact Robyn didn't say a word to the dog but instead went straight for a kick w/her boot tells me cruelty was her first thought. If the dog was a concern Robyn could have told Meri to wait for her, she could have said NO or GET BACK if she was fearful. Robyn didn't think the camera was on her and she nailed the dog in it's ribs. Robyn is an asshole!

@@g.flesch9731 Not only do I agree but went through the experience myself. In my late 20's I was in a long term relationship and I had my cat for years prior to meeting him. We decided I would move in with him and 2-3days before I was to be completely out of my rental he said I would have to give my cat away because he didn't want him in the house 😐😑😶. A little background on Nesta, he wasn't your average cat, and I know ppl say there cat is like a dog but this was on another level. He walked on a leash, did multiple tricks like sit, stay, roll over, bring items when asked, drop it, and more. People who "hate cats" LOVED him! Needless to say I was lucky my landlord hadn't rented the house to anyone else because that was the end of my relationship. It wasn't easy but anyone who wait to the last minute and then take advantage of the situation(he thought I wouldn't have a choice w/Nesta) is a jerk. The cat was the only choice, lived almost 20yrs, and later became my daughter's best friend💞.

​@@denisia1111 even if your cat was the average cat, or a mean cat to anyone but her primary human, waiting until a few days before moving in to spring on the to your bf/gf that their cat isn't welcome is super awful. My cat was a deal breaker for me. She had a short lifespan, and I took my guardianship of her seriously. Happily, my now spouse is an animal lover too. And even if she had hated him, he would have dealt with it

[@denisia1111]

@@KC69134 Yes! It really doesn't matter if it was a good vs hateful cat the main point is he was a jerk who couldn't empathize with the bond people have w/their pets.

My friend had a 120lb mastiff rottweiler mix, she had a sign on her front door "Love my Dog and I will love you". We joked it should have said "I might love you but if the giant beast on my couch starts growling then hey nice knowing ya"!

[@danielleblackburn4095]

As far as the dog kicking goes, it never gets clarified beyond what you saw what happened with her kicking the dogs. But, alot of viewers saw exactly what you saw with her kicking the dogs away and that has become one thing viewers cite when speaking about Robyns dislikable personality. And I agree with you-anyone who kicks dogs where there is no necessary self defense is questionable to say the least.

@@EatHere Not defending Robyn, never liked her, but when someone is scared of dogs, this is a instinctive reaction to an approaching dog, especially with kids near.

[@Schu0086]

This isn’t explored much in the show aside from when they’re actively moving, but they have all said things off camera that indicates they moved very frequently before the show. The family moved like thirteen times before the show and consider that Logan, the oldest child, was only 16 or 17 when the show started. I think this context is helpful when viewing the kids’ and wives’ reactions to moving.

[@Schu0086]

I would also say that in terms of whether it’s good or bad for the family, it’s almost impossible to say. Many of the children have become very successful and highly educated adults. I don’t think their church school in Utah would have necessarily provided them with the foundation needed to be successful in higher education given that it was unaccredited fundamentalist religious education. I also think they were homeschooled before attending the church’s school so they might not have had a lot of time with friends socially before that and may have felt like they were losing this whole life they’d discovered for the first time. But moving is a big hardship for a lot of the older kids, especially. You can see on their faces how they are struggling with moving again.

[@MearnieToon]

They moved because they are scammers and connivers with multiple bankruptcies.

[@g.flesch9731]

@@Schu0086 I have read that one of the biggest stressors in life, even when it comes with an advantage, is moving. You have to pack all your stuff. That's work. You may be required to get rid of stuff you would rather keep if there is limited space to move an entire household. When the Browns moved away from Las Vegas, there were (4) separate households full of stuff with some 18 kids involved in the move to another State. Also the kids had to give up friends they made in Las Vegas & their schools & some were in the important high school years. That is the worst time to move kids unless for a very good reason. What were Robyn & Kody's reasons for doing that big move? No Spoiler

[@selfcarewithstephanie3519]

In the book they say Kody moves them around every 5 to 7 years. The book is not a spoiler. Everything in it is from before the show.

@@Schu0086there’s a lot of research about how moving from one community to another can be very destabilizing for children and how there can actually be a lot of trauma involved with that.

Not Mormon but raised Christian so i thought i would chime in here about the "making a decision out of fear" - in many christian denominations fear is seen as an evil almost like sin and/or from the devil. Because we are taught that the bible says we should fear only God and nothing else- and that if we fear something to the point that is affects you and your decision making and life then it influences you, therefore is now your god. Also- idea that fear is opposite of faith, of which how faithful you are = status of how 'christian' you are. (not crazy to see how many of us have the fear of fear- lol)

Robyn was not trying to help Kody help Christine. She was telling Kody in that way she does to tell her she has to move. Robyn wanted to move to be closer to her family, so the entire family is moving. She is saying stop Christine from trying to get you to listen to her point of view & get back on track with what I have already convinced you we should do. If the state of Utah wants to prosecute them, moving will not do any good. It is ridiculous to think that moving to a different state will help your legal troubles.

I don't think Kody actually wanted to move. Knowing the geography of Utah, the main family lives in northern Utah, and Robyn lives in the southwest just over the boarder from Las Vegas. It seems like Robyn convinced Kody to move the family to her instead of her moving to them. Like others have said, Kody is making a lot about a possible investigation. Considering the way Robyn has already started trying to be the dominant wife, I would bet that she is really the one pushing for this move.

[@EatHere]

It took me about 5 times watching the dog clip to realize Meri is the one going up the stairs Robyn is to the far right with her kids. Looks like she is holding her kids hands, the dog approaches and she kicks him out of the way. I feel like it’s one thing to put your knee up to block the dog but she clearly extends her leg past her daughter to kick him out of the way. Abusive maybe but at the least it’s clear she really doesn’t like the dog and maybe animals in general.

[@gwendolynmorgan7803]

Whether or not he has the final say, he could consider their points of view (because the wives constantly bring up stuff he doesn't know, doesn't think of, totally forgot about, etc!). Blatant misogyny. I recommend watching kody's nephew Ben (FreshKingBenjamin), he was raised on the same ranch kody was and worked all day in the bakery with the other kids when he was little. (The one where the Brown family kids got their stale bread) Ben explains the belief system and how it factors into a lot of what we see in the first season

In the religion, I’m guessing there’s a strong focus on “fear vs faith.” I think that’s the subtext to the conversation around making the decision. I’m not from this sect, but I think the cultural undertones of that mentality might be similar to the religion I adhere too, being in Utah. I could be off, but that’s the context I saw, wanting her spouse to give the reasons that will be positive, building with divine guidance and support in faith…the same reason and energy that likely helped them choose this lifestyle.

On why they don't want to be motivated by fear...in the Mormon tradition, faith is the opposite of fear. You're supposed to bravely do what is right and trust God will take care of you. Otherwise you are not being faithful.

The dog kick was more obvious before they edited the episode. That moment got a lot of backlash from the fans when it originally aired. Deservedly so imo.

Yup robyn kicked the dog, im surprised you caught that, i missed it the first time. She admits to not being an animal lover. Anybody who dislikes animals is X'd out of my book completely

Robyn is seriously evil

[@AmySarahSmith]

It is Robin that kicked the dogs. Regardless after she did that i have not liked her since.

How the heck did he see the “dog kick”…. Jeez. I have watched this multiple times…so freaking quick- i can barely make it out. I think “kick” is overstating a bit- looks like she held her leg out so dogs wouldn’t get to the kids…I think she was trying to get dog or keep dog away from child. Child might not like dogs.

Uu, kicking a dog! What the hell??? I don't like that at all!
