Just watched Catelynn and Tyler's episode and nearly bawled my eyes out!! It must have been so hard to give up their baby for adoption, but the adoptive parents seemed to have it all together so good for them.
I realllllllllllllly disliked Catelynns mom...she was so mean to her daughter! I would have been proud of her..she was doing what was best for her baby and I thought it was so selfish of her mom to not support her and not sign the adoption papers. Same with Tylers dad being an ass to him. Plus..totally EWWwwww that Catelynns mom and Tylers dad got married!! Talk about selfish parents!!

I watched that episode too. I was completely appalled by literally everything their parents did!!! How dare her mother be so cold and mean because her daughter didn't want her child to have a messed up childhood like she did. They are so selfish and just plain screwed up it's not even funny. Plus, I say you should never listen to anyone who's still wearing a mullet. Because if they have the gall to do that Lord only knows what else they'd be capable of!

Good on these kids for making a better choice for their child.

The last episodes the kids were far, far more responsible than the parents.
It looked like the daughter in the episode had a touch of the downs too. I'm not sure she should have had kids.

Catelynn & Tyler - BEST episode with the WORST PARENTS!
Catelynn and Tyler's episode was so backwards, in my opinion. The kids were being responsible and saying ALL the right things:
- "I can't have a child! I'M still a child!"
- "I want the child to have a better life than I have had"
- "I can't give the child everything that it needs"
And the parents were so irresponsible and stupid!!
- "You know I don't agree with adoption"
- "My son didn't man up and take care of his kid!"
The whole time I was watching this episode, my WTF siren was going off in my head! Though, I have to say, the children being mature enough to admit that they were not fit to be parents and going against what their mom & dad said made this the best episode so far... otherwise, it was one LONG train wreck!!
...I don't even think the parents being married to each other warrants any comment. We all know how messed up that is...

Catelynn and Tyler showed just how much more mature and responsible they are than their parents. I have to admit, I was teary eyed from when she gave birth, to the handing over of their daughter to the adoptive parents. Tyler's mom seemed to be ok with their decision, it was Catelynn's mom and Tyler's dad who seemed not to be supportive of their decision.

With their parents it's just goes to show ya that not everyone should be able to procreate.

I commend Catelynn for going through with it. It takes alot to do what is best for the BABY, as opposed to what your parents (or you or babydaddy) may want.

Catelynn and Tyler's episode was sad. I was so happy when they decided to go through with the adoption.. I was worried that all their interaction with the baby at the hospital would change their minds!
Their parents are completely insane. I couldn't believe the POS mom refused to sign the adoption papers! My favorite line was the mullet dad saying "all that baby needs is love." Um, love doesn't feed, clothe, and diaper the baby!

$5 says that they don't work. That sounds like an "I don't have a job" kind of statement.
When people say that, I always think to myself "Try telling that to the social worker from Children's Services when they show up!"

It was really touching for me that the adopting parents want a connection with the birth parents (Tyler and Catelynn), and will allow exchanging of photos and what not. The bracelet scene was so sweet. The parents not supporting adoption made me  because the kids needed support through this, not a bad attitude.
I'd also like to give props to Catelynn for realizing how this could have put her life off track and that she has to get her act together to go to college and prepare for any future children (though I doubt she and Tyler will stay together forever).

"All you need is love" is such crap...maybe we should blame the Beatles. It's the same reason why divorce is so high in this country. Love is not reason enough to marry someone or have a baby with someone. Those decisions should be made just as much with the BRAIN as with the heart (or OTHER organs, if you know what I mean).

I took a sociology class last semester, and people were saying that exact statement. They thought they were financially stable to have kids, even though they were both in school and primarily living off student loans and grants. I won't have a kid without health insurance, and hopefully owning a home (and I plan to be married). Financial aid is NOT income.
