I wonder if people realize that Jenelle has already let him smoke weed, it’s been in multiple stories about them before now. She’s not just the type who would let him, she encourages it. He has used vapes (most likely flower and edibles, as well) for at least the last couple of years. Hell she was high the whole time she was pregnant with him, he was born high. It was Jenelle’s solution instead of “meds” because she, of course, knows better than everyone else and thinks it will solve all of his, and her, problems.
I am 100% a supporter of cannabis use, even in children when and where necessary (remember, not all cannabis is the “weed” people think of, reefer madness was a bunch of bs, but it’s still got a mad hold on people, lmao). It can be a lifesaver, it can help aid many issues, it has been proven to be beneficial in countless ways-even for kids. But in the case of children it needs to be in a controlled environment, used for very specific purposes, under very specific conditions and not to be used recreationally. For adults, you do you boo, as long as you’re doing what you need to do as a person, parent, employee, whatever have you which also includes being RESPONSIBLE, I have zero judgment whatsoever.
Unfortunately, none of this applies to Jenelle or Jace, as she’s never been responsible as a person or parent and he’s still a child who NEEDS his actual medication (and other treatments as well), not cannabis under mommy dearest’s half-assed not-really-supervision. If cannabis was an actual option for his treatment, it should be done ONLY under a physician’s care (and, frankly, I don’t believe his issues are helped in the least by cannabis, at least not at his age, but I digress on that as I’m not a doctor, lol).
There are many benefits from the marijuana plant and yes, always with doctors approval. When my son who was 12 at the time, was diagnosed with cancer he was in some insane pain from the side effects of one of his treatments called Vincristine. Vincristine caused random isolated bone pain. And his jaw happened to be the bone that would get the effect. He cried and wouldn’t want to talk or eat. He said it felt like it was going to shatter if he moved. They offered ANOTHER medication. He was up to 14 different types of medication already. I reached out and asked him his thoughts on CBD and he was so happy I asked as he could not suggest it because it wasn’t FDA approved but he highly suggested it once I brought it up. He was so happy that we chose CBD than another pill. He even asked me to bring it up to other mothers whose children were also in the infusion clinic and were struggling with appetite or pain. When I tell you there was a drastic positive change in some of these babies!!! People! When it’s used properly it works miracles! Now I’m sure Jenelle is slanging joints left and right, that is NOT the way.
Down vote away … I don’t respect or like Janelle at all. She has never demonstrated any maternal instincts or the ability or desire to put her kids, or anyone, ahead of herself. People who claim they want the best for Jace, or any of the TM kids, and then go on message boards and say the most horrible things about their mothers and then say they just want the best. These kids are teens, old enough to know about this and other sites. Worse, their schoolmates and friends read it. You know those kids are repeating these words and thoughts to them. When some internet stranger suggests suicide for the TM or calls their mom a POS and more and worse … These kids are reading it. You’re talking about their mothers. Why the personal attacks? A lot empathy … Before posting a comment, imagine you are writing it to the kid and the kids at their schools. Being a teen is hard enough. I can’t imagine how those kids feel about growing up on TV, having a mother like (insert a TM name) and being the target of comments and jokes. Add to all of that, a bunch of strangers talking about you and your family and saying the things some have said on this thread. I don’t mean to lecture or … sometimes I read the comments and I can’t help but think about the kids and how they feel about it. I enjoy reading the articles and the comments here, but I’ll go back to lurking.
This isn’t an airport, you don’t need to announce your departure.
That said…long story time
There isn’t anything said here, or anywhere else, that these kids do not already know themselves. People don’t typically comment on the kids themselves very much (thankfully) at least not in a negative manner the same way they do about the moms. This page, like many others, is a SNARK page, it’s literally what has happened here since it’s inception. It isn’t all happy time rainbows and sunshine all the time. It’s gritty, it’s dark, it gets dirty sometimes, but most important, it’s real. It doesn’t sugarcoat everything. It shows things in the light they should be shown, not the light MTV (or any other network/production company) wants it to be seen. It gives insight beyond the camera and gives real, actual and factual information about what happens when….(you can insert whatever you want here, it’ll apply). People who watch TM, for example, only see what MTV gives them. They don’t see, unless they find pages like this or read about it elsewhere, what happens when those cameras aren’t rolling. They don’t see who/what people really are behind the camera. It’s stupid to pretend they’re just actors for a tv show.
I have kids who come from bio-parents and families that behave a LOT like some of the TM cast. They too can, at times, gloss over the negative things to only see the positive things. It’s hard, but they do, at some point, have to face the harsh realities of the situation, of who and what their bio-parents are, the things they do/have said and done. I have a kiddo struggling with this right now, because everyone around wants them to believe their bio-parents are generally good people outside of a few mistakes (including them). But the harsh reality is, they aren’t good people, and this kiddo needs to know this in order to work through the problems they are currently having. It’s not your place, or even mine for that matter as their mom, to tell this child they shouldn’t know the negative things about their bio-parent. The more they know, the better they can protect and prepare themselves (and the better I can too as their parent). Is it easy to accept you have an a-hole for a parent? Nope. Is it better to pretend they aren’t? Hell to the fuck no. We don’t throw it into their faces every chance we get and we don’t disparage them to the best of our ability, but we are completely honest. If something they do is a-hole behavior, we don’t gloss over it. We explain it, and if we have an explanation for why, we offer that too, but we don’t ever sugarcoat with older kids because it only causes further harm. When kids are younger, it’s not as much of a problem, when they become teens, it’s a HUGE problem, though. You don’t break the cycle pretending everything is fine or pretending someone’s behavior/personality isn’t what it really is.
Walk a mile…and then walk some more.
Well that’s what happens when you choose to be a carefree person instead of a mother.
Jenelle reminds me of my crazy aunt that was letting my cousins smoke weed at home at 13. Jace looks stoned in that picture.
Jenelle is 100% the type of mom to smoke weed and drink with her kids and their friends, especially since she wants Jace to like being with her better than Barb.
Oh Jenelle …. While I do hope the best for Jace for his own benefit, I cannot WAIT for him to give back to you tenfold what you put Barbara through. Remembering all the trauma you directly perpetrated in that poor boy’s life, God speed. You’re gonna need a lot more than luck to deal with the reckoning that is on its way to you.
i hope it doesn’t or hasn’t happened at all but jenelle’s definitely the type to be ok with her kids smoking weed smdh
The shirt isnt the isssue. As a former pothead I know a stoned person when I see one. Jace is clearly stoned.
Clearly.
The walking embodiment of “you! I learned it from watching you!”
Yes, very much so.
You know Janelle is the type of mom who would smoke weed with her kids
I fuckin hate this bitch Jenelle so much. Fuckin piece of shit person, and loser mother. You reap what you sow bitch! I wish you nothing but misery for the rest of yo life. Those kids deserve so much better.
