Sister Wives

I really didn't take any of that apology tour stuff seriously. They are out of ways to have the 4 main entities cross paths. I feel like that was all for content.

It bugs me so much that Kody would only say I apologize and not say I am sorry. It sounded like he really didn't mean it.

I just watched the episode where Christine had a small party for Janelle. My gosh does Janelle’s sister look like her. And Christine’s sister resembles her, but sounds just like her.

It's always interesting to me to get a glimpse of the rest of their family members and what they've witnessed through the years with the family.

I haven’t watched last nights episode but the more I think about how Meri is treated I truly believe she got the short end of the stick financially within the family because she only has one child. They never saw her as a complete equal due to that.

In that religion your fertility and how many babies you can churn out is important. The fact that she only had one kid meant to them that she didn’t deserve enough resources from the family and that she had to “earn her keep” by putting more money in the pot. They’ve always felt she should have a smaller home. She was made for years to pay for her ow bills. She paid for Leon’s college by herself.

it's been allot of years since I read the book they all co-wrote but if I recall correctly they said there (and on the show) that all the wives got identical 'allowances' to cover their 'household's' needs (not mortgages but food, clothing, other monthly misc expenses). I remember thinking that Meri ended up pretty well off in that scenario with just the one kid.

I did think it was insulting to all the ex-wives to label Robyn as the “moral compass” of the family. It’s a lot easier to be generous and forgiving when you’re the one who lives with the husband full-time, and he calls you his soul mate.
