This is just sick, as a mother myself, I couldn't IMAGINE not being there for my kids, in any aspect of their life.

When my elderly parents were in too ill health to attend my wedding in person, we included them via Google Hangout. But I don't think Mama Slaton was actually sick. She just didn't care.

Darlene has gotten under my skin from the get go. She’s the most unkind and cold hearted human. The negativity just oozes from her. I’ve always said these kids turned out to be decent humans in spite of their upbringing. Kudos to the grandma who stepped up and showed these children what unconditional love looks like. God rest her soul. Do you guys remember when the grandma’s quilt got stolen (the siblings gifted it to Tammy). Heart crushing…..simply because I knew how much Tammy’s grandma meant her. That lady stepped up in a huge way for all of those kids. 💞🙏🏻

Generational curses are real. Because the mother didn't want to change or take accountability her children suffered and turned out like her in many ways. She caused this family to suffer.

I really relate to them because I grew up with a mother like this too and my grandmother was also my only supporter. I didn't have weight problems but I always had really bad issues with socialization and grades and my mom instead of encouraging me would just blow up at me about it and make snide remarks. As an adult after my grandmother passed away I had to cut contact with my mother because all she did was inject negativity into my life about how I wasn't doing well enough and eventually I was diagnosed with autism and found out THAT was why I had so many problems not because I was lazy or slacking like I was always told. Now I'm doing alot better. I'm so glad Tammy and Amy and all their siblings rose above their bad mother and are also doing well because I know how hard it is.

The second she was introduced, I knew. My mother is a bonafide narcissist so I recognize those traits in parents quickly. She gets no credit for how her kids turned out- they did so IN SPITE of her behavior not because of it. I'm proud of them too.

My mother is this way. To this day it kills me the neglect the lack of encouragement. Neglect is a very underestimated form of abuse

My dad was just like this. I'm in therapy to this day and I'm so screwed up.

I grew up with a mom like that so I can relate. She supported my older sister in anything she did. I got told I was worthless, stupid, a mistake, and she didn’t know why I tried. My sister was given everything. I got nothing. Any time I tried out for something, basketball, baseball, cheerleading, and drill team , she’d say I hope you don’t make it. It was a tough life but I survived.

My Mama came from the same school of parenting the girls Ma came from. The toxic mothers guide to dysfunctional kids. I tried to do the opposite of everything mine did and it worked out great, my kids are all healthy well grounded adults.

Wow their mother is absolutely horrible! No wonder that they have the problems they struggle with! She's the type of woman who really doesn't deserve to be called a mother! So sad for Amy and Tammy!

This is another reason people shouldn't judge Amy's housekeeping (or anything else). She's been negatively judged since babyhood. Let's quit being cruel in the name of judging her.

i grew up with a mom like her. i relied on myself and older sister. all my mother taught me was how not to be to my kids.

Their mother is abusive and cruel!

I knew the mom has issues (thanks to MyThoughtsWillProbablyOffendYou). It technically should've been apparent with her and her children's eating habits. Correct me if I'm wrong, but didn’t Tammy say that she was overweight as a toddler? Who was feeding these kids? As for the dogs, my hypothesis is that, deep down, the mother feels bad for not being there for her kids. So she seems to be making up for those mistakes with her pets. Kinda like how parents are with their younger kids or grandparents with their grandchildren. It's another chance.

I have always wondered why we never hear about their mom on the show!

My mom was so awful, cut you with words, narcissistic, would dump all her problems on me so I would go into a frantic worry over her issues , the gaslighting theis goes on. Finally setting boundaries with my mom and telling her no I won’t cater to your every need because you don’t want to . And she has nothing to do with my family or me. So I work really hard on being a better mother to my daughter then my mother was for me. I felt Amy emotion because I feel it to you and having my daughter who just think of your childhood and your mother and you don’t want that for your child. It makes me so sad for them because I have been there hell still there My great grandparents where a safe place for me.

Comfort food is the only comfort these kids ever got!

You know how bad their mother is? All of the kids have talked about how bad she was, she didn’t even have 1 that she liked. Normally families that suffer like this, the abuser will have 1 child that is the favorite but she couldn’t even do that. She was awful to all of them.

The mother have just realized that the show was more successful than she thought it was going to be so she don’t say the mean things when the cameras are there because it make her look bad. My mother was like this. It took me years to realize that I can change her and if she doesn’t behave I can ask her to go to hell. Which have happened. Didn’t talk to her in over a year that time now it’s little bit better. When I had kids I saw a lot of the same behavior in myself towards my kids that my mother did to me so I went to therapy to get help so I at least had done what I could to not traumatizing my own kids.

I have hated their mother since day 1. It is super obvious how toxic she is. It is heart breaking.

Wonder how the Mother was raised. Good on Amy breaking the cycle

Thank you for shining a light on this issue..

Thanks for making this I love the sisters and the whole family so It is sad to learn more about the abuse they endured in the past

I remember a RU-vid comment saying that Amy and Tammy’s mom look like grumpy cat made me lmao and also because it’s so freaking true. I’ve heard of RBF , but that woman looks like she never smiled In her whole life. She always has a permanent scowl on her face that it leaves the most prominent lines on each side of her face .

'Nonchalant' = Angry @ her youngest 2 for being overweight, but knowing deep down it's her fault etc. (Written all over face) She may try & hide it, but Darlene's guilt infested, sad & uses anger to mask it.

They seem to be trying too hard to get the so called mother to like them,she's never been there for them so why would she now.I cant believe the mother has got the nerve to even be in the tv series did she paid?,is that what it is,money.If I was Amy and Tammy I would kick her in to touch and not want anything whatsoever to do with her.

Darlene is just a horrible person.

Tammy and Amy's Mom sounded like my Mom's Mom. Insult after Insult to me growing up. Did my Mom do anything to stop the Insults? Of course not. Years later my Mom told me she was afraid of her mother.

Moms like that are jealous. It took me a long time to understand it but moms can be so jealous of their own children they will try to sabotage everything good in their lives.

This makes me so sad. They totally were completely abused, invalidated and treated like an unworthy burden

I look at their mum and think she needs a good wash! No wonder why her children ended up the sizes that they did, but I’m so pleased to see that they have turned their lives around, and Bern 10000 times better of a parent than she ever was to them!

Wow this is awful. It’s interesting context to understand though, thanks for the video! 😊

I just finished binging this show because of you mentioning it in one of the sister wives videos…and OMG!!!! We NEED to talk about this show!!!

my own mom is just as abusive (maybe even moreso) as amy's mom, in exactly the same judgemental, hyper-critical and self-centered way. thank god i had an awesome dad or i would've grown up with zero support.

Amanda is a great big sister she has always taken care with helping her sisters Chris to.

Proving your Mum wrong was your Mums whole push.

i can relate to amy and tammy with their mom. my mom was always super critical me. sh did hug me but she also pushed me away a lot. it is hard tp be successful when you have a super critical not loving parent.

My older brother and I went through loads of the same name calling. We were put on diets when we were in Elementary school, and called names worse. Cusswords for me and on top of that we were physically abused . And we had our dinner plates made and regardless of how hungry we were, we couldn't have seconds of anything.

Their mom always has a look on her face like she just watched the dog take a big dump on the carpet.

They need to just NOT talk to their Mom. She's way too toxic!

Sorry, I do not believe for one second that Darlene worked three jobs and that that family did not rely on public assistance to survive. Hell, the food bill alone would be more than most folks earn in a month.

What a despicable woman

Worried about her babies, as in her dogs, not her babies as in her daughters who could die. She's no mother. She was a womb for rent if that. Take the mother off the show. She doesn't deserve to earn a penny off of the girls and is toxic to their future happiness and success.

you dont get to be 1000 ilbs with a non toxic family

Also wonder what Amanda & Misty are like with Darlene/their Mom tbh? Can't recall any scenes with them! Though there is with Chris. Reason being is just wonder how she treats the rest of her 'offsprings' & what the relationship is like!?

That is probably why they all are overweight. They were probably depressed and maybe even afraid, and turned to food. Four of them have had surgery. They said that they used to get their food from food banks or something like that. They probably think that now that they have food they’re going to eat what they couldn’t eat before. Sad for them:

I just gotta say im sorry for everyone in the comments who said they have moms like this. I can’t even imagine. My mom isn’t perfect & we have our issues. But she’s never not once called me fat or stupid or abused me verbally like this. She loves her kids & we all know that. Everyone at least deserves a mom who loves them unconditionally.

Now we see why they eat emotionally. Their mother doesn’t deserve to be called “mom”. No way,

I believe there is a lot of mental illness in the whole family. Whether it was due to drugs, alcohol or just plain poverty, mental illness threaded through the family.

DARLENE IS TOXIC .

That Chihuahua 😂

their mom sounds a lot like mine. sometimes, mine would do something for me & then hold it over my head just so I could never be upset with her for how she would treat me later

I have a mother like Amy and Tammy’s. And I’m having weight loss surgery at the end of the month. It’s hard honestly. My niece (3)calls me grandma because I’m the one that goes to family events with my dad instead of my mom. Good on my dad for having the energy to land a 30 year age difference 😂 kidding. But it has a ripple effect. She’s not going to be at my surgery. I’m thankful for the amount of therapy I’ve had. It also taught me a term that the Amy and Tammy need to learn: emotional divorce. It’s what I’ve had to do. My mom is biologically my mom, and she’s still in my life, but it’s a different mindset. Like the love you have for an ex (or ex in-law) and you still have to be around them because there’s still an important relationship there.

Wow, that’s heartbreaking.

That old rat dog is grossing me out, it can't stop licking Darlene. It's too bad that Amy keeps asking her mother to do things, when she hasn't in the past. It's only hurtful.

Anyone else deadass text their mom a heartfelt "thank you for being a good parent" after seeing just how horrible this woman was to her own daughters? Like dang dude I know parents are people too, but I would just about die of heartbreak if my mother was even a fraction as mean as this woman is to her kids. 💔

"I've got to worry about my babies" she says to her actual child! 🤬

How dare she say no abiut being at her daughter s wedding and walking her down isle shes a POS even thiugh Amy didn't like when Tammie said our Mother when they were talking about being called names😢Thats sad !This is why they have eating addiction problem thank god they didn't get addicted to drugs or anything How sad ....Im glad they had a Grandma that was good to them ...This is heartbreaking words hurt i cant imagine telling my nanies they were fat or stupid or ugly ...😢

😊 Where does their mom get that? She's any better? She needs to surgery herself.. Shame on her.

That's just really sad, and I feel for the girls. Tammy looks really good with her hair curled and makeup on. I'm so happy for her weight lose

Unfortunately, toxic families are pretty common. So many families have secret toxic dynamics or generational trauma.

I have a father that has become very toxic it away to some degree he kind of always was because he showed favoritism over my sister more than me and does to this day so I do understand how they feel my own father didn't even want me to get married and I'm perfectly happy after 6 Years it'll be in July 20th

Their mother is jealous. Also, my husband's mother didn't come to his open heart surgery because she was trying to sell a car, and tried to tell everyone I told her she couldn't come. I don't talk to her on the phone for this reason. I had text messages of me begging her to be there.

I don’t think their mom is a bad person, I think she grew up rough, then had to become harder to work 3 jobs and raised 5 kids. Yes, she had help from her mom, but if she was the same way-it may have been the only way she knew how. Also, all of that for very little pay can be super stressful and result in lashing out. Especially if she grew up in Deep South, they don’t show a lot of emotion because life is hard. You basically survive to live, not to enjoy it. And remember, tv and internet weren’t a thing, you only knew what you knew, surrounded by others with like minds. And when you get that old. You get set in your ways. I’m not excusing it, I’m just saying I see where her mindset may have come from, especially if she experienced that in her own upbringing and it transferred to her own kids. Her kids are breaking that cycle, which is great.

I understand Tammy's and Amy's pain all too well, i was also fat shamed all my life by my mother, she constantly made me feel like i was never enough and ultimately i broke all ties with my mother, for my own sanity, peace of mind and for my emotional well-being i no longer have anything to do with my mother and honestly i have had peace happiness for the first time in my life!

A true mommy dearest 🤔🤔🤔🤔

Mom's just laying out truth to the kids.

I can relate to them very much.

That whole family has major issues not just weight.

Not everyone is cut out to be a good parent and this is proof of that but at least she hung in there enough to bring them into the world and give them a great example of how to NOT be a parent.That woman's character & genetics harmed her children but thankfully they wanted a better life than that.

Amy won't Tammy to need her.point blank..and she won't and loves the kids but the work of it all is getting the best of her and Amanda sees though the BS

I have never related so much, I had a mother identical to this mother, well a lot worse I'd say but yes just like her, idk how many things happened in my or my brother life n she didn't attend n I vividly remember her using that same excuse " I gotta take care of my dogs" even tho she legit let them poo n pee everywhere n neglected them so much but yes def my mom used to show more affection n concern for her pets or her current boyfriend, or any living thing that wasn't us just to get outta anything we wanted her there for so I totally understand n I feel for them all, I had to ask for help n lots of counseling in order to know how to raise my kids starting out, cuz I was petrified of causing any level of trauma that may have stuck with them n effected the way they turned out as an adult. It took so much for me to be able to say out loud I love you and like saying thank you or I'm sorry l, those were so incredibly difficult to show n my kids are now 21, 18 n 17, but I still think back n get extremely anxious about thinking about when they were little did I say something I shouldn't have, did I do or NOT do something, did I react the wrong way, etc, etc...I'm always second guessing myself, n I turned 39 this year, n I have one granddaughter n I vowed from the sec my oldest said she was pregnant that I'd do everything in my power to guide her even better then I did with my kids, but yes all of what they're feeling cuz of their mother ,it stays with you forever. I still don't know how to give myself credit for asking for that help but I deserve to be proud of how I raised my kids, and so does Amy!🤔🙏🏻😨🥺🤷🏻‍♀️

I don’t Even watch the show, But those two did not become so sickly obese w/out some Serious childhood trauma. I can know w/out Evidence, mama was Abusive

Their brother Chris has been there for them on the show, wonder if it’s only for ‘show’?

Id love to have a sister like amy or the older blonde one, having a brain fart moment

That woman just makes me so angry! I am lucky there, my mother was really supportive. My dad, on the other hand, Was an alcoholic. He was a good dad, when he wasn't drunk. But, when he was drunk, he was abusive.

They were lazy and fat! Their siblings probably wanted them to get motivated to lose weight and live healthy lives as adults. Now we're dealing with the fact that they didn't!

The mother is very ignorant. She doesn’t know any better. It has always been apparent that she doesn’t have empathy for her kids. Sad really

the apple didnt fall far from the tree lol // seems there all a mess // cant blame mom for all there mistakes // were individules

Didn't you make a video awhile back about Amy and Tammy's mom?

Rather tgan being comforted emotionally, they ate for comfort. Motherbis a class A narc

I was born in Kentucky (moved @7yr old to my Grandmother's) and my own mother has way to many traits like this mom... I wonder if it not looked apon as that "bad" in that region. ┐⁠(⁠‘⁠～⁠`⁠;⁠)⁠┌

💔💔💔

You have to just put these things behind you. You have to forgive and try to forget even though you won't be able to and just go on and just love. It really frees you and You feel so much better

I mean I ditched my cousins wedding for my dog but my dog has anxiety and jumps lunges trys to escape at every opportunity and wants to eat anything smaller than him, he picks fights with the dogs his size, I'm the only one who can read him 😂 so I'd stay home w my dog too but idk my dog has special needs in a way😅

indefense if the mother. i am sure she has had a life time if hearjng this and the like. a person doesnt work 3 jobs because she didnt love her kids. you only saw what the sisters wanted to show you.

I just don't get it. You call yourself "IQ" and then show some of the dumbest people on the planet. Or is it an ironic name like calling a big guy "tiny"? I just think that shows like "my 600lb life" among others, highlight everything wrong with modern society.

Who cares?

Bet he's one of those triflin' guys that expects the wife to keep pushing out babies but do all the "women's" work. Like no, you both made them, you're both responsible for them, unless you have some kind of consensual arrangement. I think having that second kid was a mistake.
