Tamra choosing this show over her daughter


Yeah nope. Can't feel bad for her. If you want your daughter in your life get the hell off this show. Maybe I am just a different kind of mom but I would do whatever it took to have my child in my life no matter what... Especially if it was such an easy damn decision.

Especially when her daughter expressed for her to get off the show with her nasty behavior.

We could...we could belong together...ARTPOP

I could never do something that brought shame and embarrassment on my kids, however, those kids are Tamra and Simon's. I have a feeling they are skilled at emotional blackmail and if it wasn't the show it would be Eddie, or, her job, or some other thing. Tamra said she and Simon are getting along now, yet she still bad mouthed him. Tamra is devoid of common sense.

reply

Exactly. This whole sob story that her daughter just abandoned her is exactly why her daughter doesn't wanna talk to Tamra. All the lies she does for the cameras, all the despicable behavior she displays on a weekly basis, I mean I'd be mad at my mom too if she acted like Tamra on nationak TV. Tamra cares more about exposure, fame, sympathy, and a check, more than building a relationship with her daughter.

Good for the daughter; "run girl from this sleazy mother!"

Tamra isn't a mother any more, she's a reality star. She cares more about the checks she gets from Bravo than her own children.

I kind of agree. I do feel bad for Tamra but I think it's wrong of her to put this kind of public pressure on her daughter about their relationship, and if Sidney did want to reconcile with her you know it'd be all over the show and social media and there's a good chance Sidney doesn't want that. I know most girls wouldn't.

Why should Simon and their teenaged daughter dictate what Tamra does?

I'm not a parent but isn't considering how your actions will affect your kids a sacrifice you make when you have them?

Yes. Good parenting requires sacrifice. However, Sidney is not a baby, and families should support one another. The family dynamic is malignant with them. Their troubles shouldn't be blamed on any one thing or person.

reply

Julie, initially Simon was fine with the show because he was on it too. It was publicized after the divorce that he insisted the children not be filmed on the show, nor would they be allowed to watch. Good or bad decisions from either parent, Simon was extremely controlling of Tamra. It wouldn't surprise me if he had a lot of control over his daughter as well, regarding seeing her mother.

Her daughter cannot dictate what Tamra does but Tamra should not be surprised or complain that her daughter has chosen to disassociate from her because of the ridiculous way that she has behaved on the show.
Tamra needs to stop crying about her daughter. She chose her path.

I love how she got all defensive when Kelly called her out for not being a true christian. That's not very Christian, Tamra lolol
