That's a real DAD...don't even call him a step dad...the one that raises you and looks out for you are the real ones
I agree.. I'm just shocked that Jen& Larry actually think maci is the issue but their son is the problem. I feel so bad for all his kids.. I look at him on camera he clearly isn't normal . Ryan needs help
I also dunno how his current wife deal with Ryan is she blind
@@freedom4063 I try not to judge but actions are louder than words in my book
Amen!! My Dad was, "technically my step-dad," but that was NEVER brought up. I was his baby girl & he was my Dad! May God Rest His Sweet Soul in Heavenly Peace.
So annoying we need 2 wait another week for the 2nd reunion for Ryan drama😡
I love how Taylor is pretty much the definition of cool, calm and collected...until someone messes with his family! Maci is a strong woman and doesn’t need anyone to stand up for her, but he is a passionate husband and step-dad/dad who chooses to do so! Go Taylor!
🙌🏾🙌🏾
Exactly I 🤎🤎🤎🤎🤎 it
Yup
He’s always been jealous of Ryan because maci still loves him. If Mackenzie wasn’t about things would have been different.
@@Natalie-gb8tt 🙄🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
There is a HUGE difference in supporting your child & enabling Ryan. Taylor said nothing wrong. When you say "go hug your dad" or "go over there & talk to your day", you're forcing the child to do something YOU want to happen. Never put him in danger. How many times did they let him continue to be with Ryan behind Macy's back? While he was under the influence.
Exactly!!! If anything Ryan should be running to go speak to Bentley...he shouldn't have to run and go speak to his dad he is a child and Ryan is the "adult" ...
No child should between the beef between his her parents or between his or her dad and stepfather also grand parents should not get envolved unless necesery
I agree 100%
👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾
I'm in a step-dad unless there is true danger. Taylor should not interfere with father and son. this is something they have to work out for the rest of there lives IF Bentley wants to. his decision not Ryan's. They are all confusing him. he will unstable as an adult due to adults behaving like high school kids
Maci's husband, is great! He is defending his family and wife, and I see nothing wrong with this
Facts. A real man will protect his partner 💯❤
I agree ☝️
@@melissalitus8879 yeah but not many men like Tyler out there especially back in you up against the in laws! Some in laws need to understand Boundaries and when not to cross them🤷🏻♀️ Love how Tyler has Macy’s back and a good role model to Bentley 🙏🏻🙏🏻
Exactly!
He shouldn’t be getting involved , it’s between maci and Ryan’s family. He critiques Ryan for taking prescription medication but always has a bottle of beer in his hand. Maci wants Ryan back so punishes him because he’s happy with Mackenzie. Ryan’s parents are awesome grandparents, I think maci is too judgemental
I don’t think Jen and Larry are bad people but they don’t fully understand the severity of Ryan’s drug problem and Maci being weary of Bentley being in proximity to his dad
Agreed 💯
Seriously!
Exactly. Ppl shouldn’t attack loving parents. My mom is a addict so I understand what these parents are going thru... and I understand maci and Taylor side... it’s a heartbreaking situation with no instruction book to follow and ppl need to remember that... thank you for such a loving comment :)
That’s it. It’s also easy to say what to do until it’s your kid going though addiction. When the shoes are on your feet it’s a different story. It’s hard to throw your kid out or do things people say is easy.
Totally agree with that
“Stop forcing the relationship on a child” Yes Taylor exactly! Jen and Larry expect too much from Bentley and not enough from Ryan.
Exactly! I think Larry and Jen feel guilty for Ryan’s problems and instead of assuming a healthy responsibility they try to make it easier for Ryan by manipulating Bentley
Yes!!!!!!!!! Say it louder!!!! And it is extra shown when larry disgustingly said too bentley's face he would choose ryan over him!! Bentley did nothing wrong, but gets all the crap, ryan gets pampered..
@@EtherealBeauty89 yes!! And then they project their own behaviour onto maci, calling her the manipulator!! But only behind her back with a loud mouth, to the face apparently not as much!! That's saying a lot!! I don't like two faced manipulating people, always trouble with that kind!!
Thisssss 🙌🏽🙌🏽🙌🏽🙌🏽
Ok I was on the grandparents side but what u said is true lol
“Call your dad” “go give your dad a hug” “go take a picture with your dad” I know how it feels and I’m 18 to this day and still having to go through it. It makes everything more awkward and ruins the genuineness. Why should I have to approach my own dad, why can’t he ? abandonment issues are caused by this
My favorite was always "you only have one mom/dad".
Yup. I called my dad on more of his birthdays than he ever did mine. As soon as I turned 18 cut off contact completely and am ok with that decision.
@@SationalCyn I'm so sorry you went through this. A child should never have to take on tje roll of being adult. Sometimes it's better and healthier to remove the toxicity out of your life. Good luck in your future and stay strong!
When you put it like that it also makes it seem like they are trying to use Bentley to help save Ryan. Like look Ryan here's Bentley's love and affection. Will that make you do better?
Facts . My husband is 31 and dosent talk to his dad because his dad wants to be chased.
" Stop forcing a relationship on a child" PERIOD! 👏👏
Right!! If Ryan is so convinced it's Maci brainwashing him against him, then why's he so afraid of therapy 🤔 he doesn't want to confront the truth that he's turned his own son against him, easier to blame Maci than accept personal responsibility.
It’s called building bridges yet Taylor makes a big deal out of it.
@@Natalie-gb8tt a child shouldn't have to always get out their way to build a relationship with a parent. It should be reverse. A parent needs to build a bridge.
@@Natalie-gb8ttSTOP expecting children literal CHILDREN to do that work. That is SICK!! That little boy is learning what he needs and wants out of life and essentially you’re forcing him to do something he may not want. From actual experience when Bentley is old enough to make the decision himself he is going to HATE Ryan’s parents. He won’t call them. He won’t want a relationship with them for EXACTLY this reason.
👏👏👏
why is this unlisted ?! Taylor sticking up for Maci is everything he has always been a good husband and step dad!
Right? Where can we see the full video?
@@jessical6719 it comes on tomorrow night(April 20)
He should stay I a stepdad place ...smh how are they f9rcing a relationship on bentley
@@felisahenderson3879 Because clearly Bentley is over it and THEIR piece of crap son doesn’t give two f*cks about Bentley. That’s emotional abuse.
He's more of a dad than Ryan. Jen and Larry dont wanna admit that🤷♀️
Hats off to Taylor! He will not tolerate anyone talking out of line to his wife. Bentley is a lucky kid to have a step dad like Taylor.
Facts Maci,Cheyenne,Mackenzie and Catelynn were the only reason i watch the show
Yes he is. And I hate seeing people comment that taylor is out of line or he's not Bentleys real dad. He's been more of a dad than ryan that's for damn sure!
@@SationalCyn its not about blood, its about whos their to help with homework, help you ride a bike , to listen, to step up and actually be there
No..he is out of line and macy told him to stop... who does he think he is talking to that man that way...very disrespectful
@@June-tb4vi erm Well the other started it, I wouodnt of sat being spoken to like that either. The only reason maci told him to sit was because he was old but everything Taylor said was fact
“Don’t you buck up to my wife!” We’re here for it, Taylor! You better stand up for yours!!! 🙌🏽🙌🏽
Love how Maci and Taylor are always to blame for everything but it never comes back to Ryan's issues and his support group enabling him.
This is what happens when healthy people set healthy boundaries in order to protect themselves from toxic people. The toxic people never take responsibility for their actions. They never respect the boundaries. It's frustrating, but if you're going to set boundaries, you have to be mentally prepared to be made out to be the villain in the situation. It's ok. I think they're more concerned with protecting their child than they are being labeled a villain by weak minded, toxic people. The knowledge that their son will benefit from their decisions is enough, I'm sure, to get Maci and Taylor through the nonsense. Good for them.
It’s funny that in one breath Larry says a child can be manipulated, speaking on Maci, then in another try and defend his actions when he’s forcing Bentley to spend time with his father when maybe he doesn’t want to.
And his son is still on drugs.
Yup. He's really out there saying that Maci is manipulating Bentley into not wanting to have a relationship with his drug abusing and absent father while manipulating him into having a relationship with his drug abusing and absent father.
@@marielaausherAmen!! it's projecting when he blames maci.. He even was disgusting enough to tell bentley to his face that ryan was more important than him, when he said he would choose ryan when it comes to it.. That's abuse!! Larry is full of larry.. He also tried to avoid this conversation, he looked like he was allmost going to say he said it to be good with ryan, when confronted with what he said about maci. He's all talk behind her back, but not to her face.. That sneaky two faced behaviour isn't a good sign, it's a sign of a manipulator.. Yet like all manipulators he projects..
Did you see that? I was telling my sister this.
Ryan will never get better if they don’t stop enabling him.
Ryan’s a spoiled brat, and his parents blame Maci? You raised that monster, take some accountability! Your son is a douche.
@@brandydoyle6348 he did t start bei g a addict till they broke up soo ..
Ryan take drogs we can se it evert time he is on tv.
I like the way Taylor sticks up for his wife and stepson ❤️
Taylor has been more of a father than Ryan ever will be
❤❤❤❤
He a real man
As it should 👏
Yes, Taylor stood up for his family and I love it
Taylor is an ABSOLUTE KING! My heart fluttered when he sat up and said “Bentley is a CHILD.”
“Don’t you buck up!”
Yes👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
You can tell Jen is so uncomfortable with Larry's behavior.
Right! did you see that glare when Larry snapped at Dr. Drew. I do feel for Jen she is caught in the middle. She enables Ryan and that needs to stop but she doesn't blame Maci for everything she just makes it about "helping" Ryan.
But she’s not uncomfortable enough to raise her voice to him, get HERSELF therapy, OR WALK OUT OF THE ABUSIVE MARRIAGE. Her sitting with her teeth clenched and a fake smile on tells me Jen and Larry’s marriage has some secrets too. Abusive patterns being repeated in this family. Thankfully Maci will help Bentley break that cycle.
Yes I think he's very mean with anger issues.
@@wickedwest89 that's pretty awful to say you have no idea if that is true or not so you should keep your thoughts to yourself
Larry has a severe anger problem. Watch at 2:48! Seriously!!! Poor Jen has to deal with that...you can tell jen agrees with maci and taylor but married to that guy you cant go against him either! I feel so bad for jen she wants to please everyone!
Taylor wanted all the smoke with Larry
That boy out if order and c'mon they old and been around maci to long
Yes I always liked him but I like him more now. It's the support and love for me ❤
Hell yeah
He wanted that smoke because he couldn't get to Ryan lol but Larry shouldn't have acted like he was going to do something either. He did what needed to be done! That's his wife-
@@tawana972 oh he definitely wanna put the paws on Ryan 😂
Ryan's parents are just as bad as Ryan. They never hold him accountable. They've enabled him for as long as we have seen them on TV. Ryan doesn't make an effort and instead of blaming Ryan they direct their anger towards Maci and Taylor. When they seem to be amazing parents. They have tried to force situations on Bentley that he was clearly uncomfortable with. It's so sad. Jen and Larry are delusional. How can they help Ryan when they are in such deep denial about everything? They blame Maci for everything. If not for her, Bentley wouldn't have the structure, the social life, the athletic life, and the life of getting to talk to a therapist early before things get out of hand. If he had been with Ryan, he'd be in his house while Ryan slept all day. Ryan doesn't show up to events. It's Maci's fault. Bentley wants to go to counseling with his dad. He waited almost TWO months to call the therapist. Ryan doesn't try and he doesn't care. These people are absolutely despicable.
Ryan is like mommy and daddys biy
I think they treat ryan like a baby but bentley would do the same at Jen and Larry they are good grandparents...so taylor is out order for
Especially the mother. I don't know if anyone remembers the early days but the father wanted to be strict with him and the MOTHER TURNS ON THE DAD crying and saying stop stop it. I will never forget that
I never cared for Larry and Jen
well said!
Taylor is Bentley's dad, PERIOD. Larry and Jenn are enabling Ryan
Ummmm yeah. No.
I couldn't agree more. Taylor is Bentley's dad. End of. And the only ones who disagree are obviously the same parent type as Ryan.
@@fluttermebyy well said
One of the best post on here
WRONG...Taylor is just "wannabe hero"...but it won't last...he has issues, too...aside from him being useless and having no ambition but to live off Maci's TV money.
Respect for Taylor! He wasn’t about to let no man intimidate his wife 💪🏻
Or his stepson
That man sat up so quick, he said I’m not gon let no man talk to my wife any kind of way 😂
Jen and Larry are enablers, but they see it as supporting Ryan. They need as much help as Ryan does, unfortunately. Addiction is a family disease, that is why there is AA AND Al-Anon. No, Maci isn't perfect, but good Lord I feel sorry for her for having to deal with this crap all these years. She and Taylor have tried to protect Bentley as best they can - BY not forcing him to be in a relationship with his father (when it is so obvious Ryan is high or using now). That is the best thing they can do for him!! Ryan literally looks homeless right now, and I am not trying to be cruel or mean. How can his wife, and his parents not call him out on it????? The true victim here is Bentley, and Maci and Taylor have done their best to protect him, and give him his voice/and choice in having a relationship with his drug-addicted/absent father. Truly a tragedy all around :(
It's his dad..and I don't see them forcing anything on bentley...I know he listens behind doors and pick up on energy from maci and taylor... an he would never know nothing if maci didn't put it in his head
They created a narcissist
@amysheldon well said sweetie I've been following them since this show started and all I can say is WoW kudos to maci and Taylor because this is how you protect your children. On the other hand I know how drugs can ruin a family 👪, yes it time people start calling Ryan out but Bentley will start to actually see who's been there for him in these development stages of his life. Kids are not stupid and Ryan parents needs to see this. No parents want to see their child fall apart but when you enable a drug addicts then the whole family is on drugs and I know that's a hard pill to swallow. I just wish the very best for them all and hope Ryan can really pull through not just for Bentley but for his other kids and himself.
@@felisahenderson3879 Ryan is on reality tv and Bentley’s in middle school (meaning he probably has fewer restrictions on what he watches). So he’d already have a way to see it. Not to mention, he knows his dad and can see the difference between a sober and non-sober parent, even if he wouldn’t use those exact words. Kids see everything, whether we want them to or not.
@@felisahenderson3879
He’s a terrible dad
They say they are caught in the middle but that's not maci's fault. The only person she has to look out for is her son. Point blank period. They wouldn't even be caught in the middle if it wasn't for Ryan. 🤷♀️
I'm leaning towards feeling bad for the grandparents but yeah what u say is true. This is totally Ryan's fault.
I'm with Taylor on this one 100%!!! I love how he supports and loves his family so much!!! Such a Great Man!!!
Ryans dad finally met his maker with taylor
Word
Yep stop playing with Taylor! He's been a dad more to Bentley then Ryan ever could 💯
@@melissalitus8879 i agree but I'm so shocked that Ryan's parent's THINK that maci was the issue 😳
Where can I find the rest of this clip ?? I wanted to see EVERYTHING😒
@@freedom4063 I know I like the mom but she keeps enabling him and let's him get away with everything smh. Yea they cut the part out lol I wanted Taylor to get on him for disrespecting Maci like that 😒 I think the full episodes might be uploaded later it depends
Match?
I like how Dr. Drew confronted Larry about the tabloids. And good for Taylor for stickin up for his woman .. 🙂🙃🙂
Dr. Drew just wanted drama. He picks and chooses who he wants to call out. But I am team Taylor all the way on this one. Maci has given Larry & Jen more access then a lot of grandparents get and all she asked is for Ryan to be sober around their son. So that makes her a trigger for Ryan to KEEP using.
Dr drew all about the fighting and the drama lol . Maci is part of the blame she wants to keep him away ... I think everyone take it the wrong way . They probably told him to go talk n see his dad cuz they were public place . And it the rite thing to do.. I do t like that wen bentley not around they talk about ryan bad... They shouldn't be doing that ..
@@stevenmaines9114 but you're ok with Jen, Larry, Ryan and his wife badmouthing Maci and Taylor? No comment on that.
@@fluttermebyy iv never liked taylor ... And maci has changed since being with him . And we don't no what happens bejinde closed doors
@@stevenmaines9114 we can agree to disagree but that is double standards right there.
I think we can see the root of Ryans issues
It’s def from his dad his dad doesn’t like his son
Exactly
I want a man like Tatlor. he's not just cute but an amazing husband.
Ew
Hopefully you’ll find you a man like him🤗
I wanna know what he looks like without that beard.
Not cute at all lol
Taylor is exhibiting how real parents are, I will never allow anyone to force my kids to hug, kiss or speak to anyone no matter the biology. My kids feelings matter and they are my priority.
They just can’t stand the fact that Bentley has a good dad in his life that isn’t their son.
Jen seems like such a warm loving lady. The men in her life don’t deserve her. I think she wants to put Bentley and Maci first, but is conflicted.
I agree!
It hurt seeing her cry because you can tell she just wants everyone to get along
She is loving but lets not forget who raised Ryan. Kids need boundaries. She only gave love and not discipline that's why he turned to be such a spoiled selfish person. Feel sorry for her but down the line she messed up.
I like Jen but she needs to hold Ryan accountable he's a grown man playing games smh. Bentley has resentment because he knows the truth
Jen is a pushover, and tbh a manipulator. Those tears are to get Maci to feel sorry for her, and when Maci gives them yet another chance, they ignore the boundaries set forth by her and Bentley and do what they want. Maci needs to drop that whole family.
The dynamics of Larry (hot head) and his wife (enabler).....exactly like Ryan and his new wife. Wow!!! Horrible people!
Then u no nothing about addiction
Bentley made it clear , he wants to go to therapy with his dad .... so what’s the problem?? As a dad would you not do this to make your son feel comfortable around you ??
And WHO suggested therapy, bitter perfect Maci lol
The therapy Maci imposed is the new lever she has found to prevent her son from having a stable relationship with his father's family. She claims to want the best of Bentley but when the therapist tells her that Bentley wants to spend time with her father, she accuses Ryan of not being present but she is responsible for it.
@@izuka6116 100%
Taylor is an amazing hubby ... maci did a good job 👏 ... Taylor is defending his family and has every right to ...
They also have to understand that Bentley is at an age where he’s understanding what’s going on and realizing things. So I don’t think it’s “manipulation” it’s just him seeing how things really are.
This comment needs to be pinned! My mom NEVER said a bad thing about my dad but as I grew up, I started to see it all for myself. Even now at 27 she hardly speaks badly about him despite his lack of being a father. They think Maci is telling him all this stuff but Bently is at the age where he can clearly see who's safe, who is there for him, and who supports him. I bet when he's at his grandparent's house THEY are the ones taking care of him, not Ryan smh
"Dont put that sorry excuse of human first"
Wow Taylor im glad someonr told them! Lol
Nobody is telling Jen and Larry not to support Ryan. They’re saying don’t put the burden of reaching out on Bentley. It’s not his job to make Ryan feel like a good father. Ryan has never been a good father and he has always blamed it on Jen or Maci.
Taylor is the MAN for sure!
Facts
Also Ryans parents body language is not a united loving couple. Shes turned all the way away from him.
Yea all this tension and chaos might get divorced down the line. I ain't wishing bad on anyone's relationship but we'll see how it goes
💯 Agree with you on that. Body language shows the huge divide between them. And Larry stays angry.....he has probably been like this all through his life and certainly all through their marriage. Doubtful anyone in that household is allowed to challenge him on anything.
Taylor is exactly right. Ryan should be the one to go to Bentley. Don't force Bentley to be the one to initiate contact or any interaction. Ryan is the adult and the dad and should act as such.
Taylor is amazing for standing up for his wife. Kudos to him!!
I am so happy Maci found a man like Taylor. Maci has done everything in her power to include Jen and Larry in Bentleys life despite what Ryan put them through. Now Bentley is old enough to make his own decisions and he’s uncomfortable around his dad. Jen and Larry enabled Ryan and this is a consequence.
Maci has never once made Jen and Larry feel like as grandparents they don’t matter. At some point if your son doesn’t want help or show signs of getting better...BE DONE WITH IT. Larry said it before and now all of sudden he is team Ryan?! Jen is hoping Maci can emphasize with her, but Taylor and Maci are trying everything they can do to stop that pattern. Jen and Larry are enablers...Maci is the only link to a relationship to see Bentley and they are destroying it. Lord knows Ryan doesn’t give a shit.
My father is the same way my brother complains on him so much but has alot of guilt and excuses for my brother ways and hates when my brother baby mother complains about him and my dad backs him up we tell him he enables my brother but gets mad and flips on us
He can see the truth at 12
You NEVER give up on your children. Not if you are a good parent.
@@Natalie-gb8tt understood, but if your child doesn’t want to change than what?! At some point something has to give. Ryan doesn’t care period.
@@kylevandiver4166 Ryan is doing well. He’s off the drugs snd on prescription medication. Wtf is wrong with that.
Maci picked a great father figure for her son. Taylor is a real man and father
Taylor wasn’t playing with him 🤣🤣🤣
Preach. It. Taylor! You and Maci are doing the right thing. This is how you protect children from toxic people. This is how you teach your kids to protect themselves. Keep up the great work.. Bentley is so lucky to have you both!
Claps for Taylor for always standing up for his wife and children!!!!
true Taylor care about Bentley and maci and he did want he had to do he they've for Bentley
That's a REAL MAN
Taylor has had ENOUGH....and rightfully so!
The way Taylor turned up when the crusty dad turned his weight to Maci.
Yea he was out of line for talking to Maci like that. I am glad Taylor stepped in. My man better come to my defense if someone is bucking up to me. Smh he crazy for doing that on TV he had rage on his face and the mom had to tell him to stop he looked like a fool
@@melissalitus8879 PERIIOOOODDDDD. Taylor was like "don't buck!" Straight up!
@@teacupolous facts he was on go for Maci! We love to see it 😌 it's the energy for me lol the dad met his match for real
Crusty dad 🤣
Jen and Larry want Maci to allow them and Ryan to do whatever they want for THEIR sake not Bentleys. Smh glad Taylor is there for Maci and Bentley
Shout out to Taylor for stepping in when Ryan dropped the ball!!!!! Stepparents have it so hard because they are parenting but have no rights, technically! GROW UP RYAN and KUDOS TO TAYLOR!!!!
Taylor being the knight in shining armor he always has been 💕
seeing Larry's anger year after year really illuminates the roots of Ryan's addictions
if ryan's parents could only see the difference between enabling and supporting ryan.
They are the best parents Jen snd Larry.
Exactly. It's the enabling, babying and coddling of Ryan that got them a lazy, trifling son who is now just a totally useless and ineffective Father to Bentley.
Ryan is just a waste of human skin.......PERIOD.
I know Maci isn’t perfect, but idk how Jen and Larry can fix their mouths to say anything negative about her. Technically speaking, she doesn’t HAVE to let Bentley see them. There’s no such thing as grandparent rights. Being a grandparent is a privilege. They should be thankful she hasn’t cut ties with them to the fullest extent of her rights as Bentley’s primary caregiver. They may not like her, but THEIR SON is the problem here. He’s the reason why everyone in the situation (including the actual child) is tense and sad.
Keep Bentley away for what? That’s just vindictive. They’ve done a lot for Maci throughout the years, and Bentley loves his grandparents.
@@Jadecii i assume because the whole situation is toxic, and that includes the grandparents. it's not about being vindictive, a kid deserves to grow up with out all of that stress. them being good people doesn't mean they are good for bentley right now. that said, i don't think she should, and i assume that's why she hasn't, he also deserves a relationship with them. it's just a complicated situation all around, but it's not like ryan and his family are making it easy.
@@sgtmian Who’s to say he isn’t stressed by being away from them?
@@Jadecii like i said, i don't think separating them is the best choice either, but i can see why maci would. sometimes you just have to make a choice to protect your child.
Its real funny how you could accuse maci of manipulation towards your grandson when you can't even confront your son on his drug use that's destroying his relationship with his son. Why don't you try listening to your grandson and ask him what he wants? This should be about Bentley, and Bentley only.
Macis husband is 100% right in this situation. Coming from a home where my parents where addicts, sometimes as kid you can't process what's going on or how you even feel about your parent or the situation. It's best to let the child come to his father when he is ready
Hugging, and conversating with your own child comes as an instinct. It's sad that a child has to be told to go hug and/or talk to his Dad. Taylor is right...they need to stop forcing a bond that has never developed in over 12 yrs.
Good for Taylor!
Taylor is an amazing stepdad you can tell just from this small clip that he loves and cares for Bentley. Bentley is so lucky to have him it’s scary to think what he would be like if he only had Ryan.
Ryan’s dad ha issues as old as he is he should know better than to act like a child throwing a tantrum.
Like Father like son. Then Jen babies both of them so they continue to act like children rather than grown men.
Precisely where Ryan gets it from. Macy, lovingly & still over & over in a considerate way, trying to break that cycle FOR her son. Imho, Larry esp but Jen too... enable Ryan like crazy! Larry just crossing his arms like that, made ME wanna go put some sense into him. Dont think they'll EVER get it tho... easier to foucs that blame outward, rather than towards Ryan.. making him do the work & earn it. Wouldn't mean they don't love him.... to do so unconditionally but with conditions. What they should've ALWAYS done imho. Never too late. Totally team Macy & woot woot. go Taylor!
He is the epitome of the old angry white men I see every day in the South. They aren't all like that, but there is a whole group just like him for sure. Everything is someone else's fault too.
Good job Taylor! You stick up for Bentley! He’s lucky to have you in his corner.
It's sad that Maci's relationship with Ryan's parents got so bad but she did the right thing by taking Bentley away from Ryan for a while and making him go to therapy. Ryan's parents should understand that.
Ryan’s parents aren’t helping they are enabling
I can't wait to watch the whole thing!!! I feel like Maci is just doing what she feels best for her child!
From the beginning of the show i remember Maci saying one day Ryan will see his son being raised by another man she predicted it because she saw how Ryan was and thats is exactly was is going on
Oh yeah, I remember this, too
IT IS TAYLORS SON! HE STEPPED UP HE MARRIED HIS MOM AND CARED.FOR.BENTLRY JUST LIKE HIS OTHER KIDS!
HE IS HIS FATHER HE HAS RIGHTS TO PROTECT BENTLEY!
It's not okay to tell a child to hug someone, especially is they don't want to. We want children to grow up and understand consent yet we spend their entire childhood undermining their choices.
He had the choice to say no. He’s 12,not 2.
Ryan Parents are enablers.
Maci is doing what she have to do for her child .
An Taylor is such a great guy overall...
Why are Ryan's parents trying to put their responsibility on Macy? Ryan's recovery is not her main concern nor should it be. Her main concern is Bentley.
I understand Macy's husband. Asking Bentley at this age to pretend for the sake of his father's sobriety is not healthy
Good job Taylor. I've had to defend my step child and her father many times and it's hard but it's clear that you love them and you're a good father/husband.
Facts
Taylor’s mindset is amazing as a child being forced to have a relationship with your father when your father is the reason there isn’t one is very uncomfortable
Bentley is lucky to have all of them who love him
I’m on Taylor’s side! They always wanna enable Ryan and that’s not cool. He needs to grow up and be a man and take care of his responsibilities!
Thank god Bentley looks like maci
Taylor stands up for his family. He's a good man, period. Everyone can understand that Larry wants to protect his family, but the well fair of the child comes before Larry's feelings.
That hatred and anger from Larry shows you the toxicity that family perpetuates and their home is full of and why they have a messed up son.
Maci’s face looks different.
Taylor is right though they're forcing Bentley to do things he isn't comfortable with or just doesn't want to do. It's not right for them to force him to do those things. Bentley deserves to have the choice of doing it if he wants to or feels comfortable.
Did bentley say that
@@felisahenderson3879 if he was ok with it he wouldn't have mentioned it to his mom and Taylor. He keeps saying this but Larry especially keeps ignoring him.
I honestly think that as Bentley gets older he will say peace out to his dad. He will one day see the episodes if he hasn't already and he will see how his dad talks about his mom as well as his grandparents and be done with them all.
And then Larry and Ryan will blame it on Maci and Jen will go along with it because she doesn't want to hurt Ryan's feelings 🤷🏽♀️
Taylor did a wonderful job defending and protecting his wife and family!!
Taylor is 100% correct for taking up for Bently. You DO NOT force a child to build a relationship with a TOXIC person.
Taylor is a supportive husband and father cudos to him 👏🏾👏🏾
I respect Taylor 1000 percent he had Maci back. Honestly he is real man and good dad to bentelyy
The worst part in all this is that Ryan is hurting his son and his parents and instead of him being a MAN and making him self accountable he’s got his parents fighting his battles! He makes me sick so glad Maci put her foot down and they won’t be filming him or his enabling wife anymore!
This family needs to leave the show Bentley is of age to where this is damaging to his emotional health. Maci storyline at this point is Ryan and Bentley and I'm sick of her talking about it. I'm rooting for Ryan and Bentley to heal and rebuild their father/son relationship and Ryan to want to achieve sobriety. Both of them need individual and family therapy.
Some therapist some where told Jen and Larry that Maci was the reason for their sons relapses making them feel guilty for ever supporting Maci. Cant always trust what every therapist says as a lot of their jargon are opinions. Common sense should always reign when taking anyone's "advice".
💯
Plus you don’t know what Ryan said to the therapist. They can only say anything about what you tell them whether or not if you tell the truth is a different story.
I’ve suspected that it was a poorly interpreted by the Edwards and they’ve clung onto it.
A trigger is the emotion a person, place, word etc elicits; Maci may elicit from Ryan shame. Anger. Fear of failure. Abandonment. Regret. This may have been brought up by a therapist in their meeting as a part of figuring out a “game plan” once Ryan leaves treatment. Through therapy, it would be Ryan’s responsibility to explore these emotions and how to heal and also find solutions to how he can control HIS own behavior, not point the finger at Maci. But he never followed through, and he’s surrounded by enablers who don’t understand how this all works.
Change therapy maci is not to blame
We only see a few minutes of these people’s lives. Ryan’s negative feelings about Maci being a trigger for him could be very much valid. I’ve never been fooled by Maci. She’s given me calculating and controlling vibes since early on with the show.
I think Larry means well but he doesn't realise that is actually not the right way to go about it. He needs to take a new approach .
Jen and Larry just believe that if Bentley is mature enough to disagree with them that means that Maci is manipulating them. But Bentley isn’t a baby. He’s becoming a teenager. He sees and he learns and he processes and after years of pain and neglect from his father, which we’ve seen so they can’t deny, he’s able to make decisions for himself and say this is not healthy for us and we need to change it. Leah is going through the same thing with Amber. These young adults, Leah and Bentley, are recognising patterns
I would've kept my son FAR AWAY from his father if he was doing hard drugs and in and out of rehab! Maci is better than me because I would've kept him from the grandparents too if they didn't honor my wishes by sneaking Ryan around when he wasn't supposed to be.
Ryan's parents have made him exactly what he is
They had a part to play considering your parents more then likely have some sort of influence on the person you become (good or bad), but Ryan is his own person and makes his own choices, ultimately who he is and how he chooses to live his life is nobody’s fault but his own
Daaaammmn Taylor okay! 😳😳😳 I love the way he just stood up for his wife. ✋🏼 high five Maci! She deserves a good guy like him!
Can Dr. Drew call up Intervention already and get Ryan on there? His whole family needs serious professional help with their guilt tripping, enabling and codependency.
I believe he's offered it many times. They always say they're taking care of things and in rehab and such. Never the one's Dr. Drew is affiliated with and they never share any therapy or treatments with Dr. Drew. I think they cover up that Ryan and they don't follow treatment and never complete it. It's always, Ryan is in rehab-we'll see when he gets out. No! I've never known rehab to be a "we'll see when he gets out" type of place. They all have made it very clear that it only works if the entire family participates.
Taylor said things I wish I could have said to my enabling in-laws.
Taylor has had enough!!!
Being classy doesn't work with these folks, and that's what Macy has been trying to do.
Team Taylor!
That’s right Taylor! It’s not the child’s job to form a relationship ever.
Taylor's right. Stop forcing Bentley to have a relationship with Ryan! Never tell any child, "Go hug whoever." Children should learn they have boundaries that will be respected
Alright ima just say this cause I’m sure all of these comments are either gonna be maci is wrong or Ryan is wrong or whatever. But let’s take a step back and look at Ryan and bentley relationship. How many times has this man gone to rehab to get better? If y’all don’t realize now that Ryan don’t want help then something is wrong with you. Taylor and maci is all that boy has. Taylor didn’t have to step up and take care of bentley like his own but he did and he’s done a damn great job!! Better than Ryan ever has. I know I’m not the only one who sees that Ryan doing all of that is hurting bentley. Having to see his dad go through stuff like that and honestly no child should ever have to deal with that. So yes taylor and maci have every right to keep bentley away from Ryan. Hell it’s not like he gives a damn anyways for crying out loud how many kids does Ryan have & he’s still doing drugs. The more his mom and dad take up for him the more they are putting him in the ground.
