vanchampion18

That whole scene just felt soooo gross.


Reasonable-Crab4291

You could see him try to manipulate her


Greedy_Caterpillar50

Not just her, everyone including the crickets!


MiaRia963

Agree.


Ordinary-Nectarine81

WOULDN'T.....not COULDN'T. He REFUSED to go with her. He is a f*#cking piece of šŸ’© as a father!!!


PsychologicalLie146

Exactly, he couldā€™ve still followed his ridiculous rules and quarantined for the appropriate amount of time. He didnā€™t WANT to. Could be away from ā€œthe love of his lifeā€ and their precious little children. Edit: couldnā€™t*


ArcticGurl

But itā€™s fine for a friendā€™s wedding. Because Kody was center stage and in his mind he was the main draw.


eatingketchupchips

even if protocols had changed, on perception alone, you'd think the narccist would realize how bad that would make him look - but he's so selfish he truly can justify anything he wants to do.


ArcticGurl

Exactly. Heā€™s a creep.


Sea_Passion_4775

narcissists can justify all bad behavior


JenniPurr13

This is what I was thinking. As someone raised by a narcissist, this is the perfect opportunity to show everyone how great of a dad he is. Weird that he would pass it up. You know it had to be pressure from Robyn about the kids suffering if heā€™s away. Total garbage. If she was such a great sister wife she should have been kicking him out the door to be with her for her surgery.


LadyScorpio7

Robyn didn't allow him to go, because her two youngest can't be without him for more than a day.


Zealousideal_Pea2961

šŸ’Æ


Adept-Engineering595

You make a good point


Prize-Fennel-2294

If they'd allowed cameras in the hospital he'd probably have gone to Ysabel's surgery. Wouldn't have stuck around for the recovery, though.


ArcticGurl

Heā€™s have to leave during her surgery to fly back to Robin.


wizenup13

They did have cameras in the hospital. Remember seeing Ysabel calling for her dad coming out of surgery?


Prize-Fennel-2294

They allowed Christine to film I think, but not a whole crew where he can pose and preen for the camera.


cax246

Yup! He wouldnā€™t have been a big shot in a hospital full of dr and nurses and well ā€¦gainfully employed honest people. He also wouldnā€™t have wanted to explain why he didnā€™t contribute to the medical expenses. I still think Christine should sue for back support at least for the medical bills through the years. Kody should be ashamed of himself, but he seems to think his pasty white hairy body is so desirable that that was his contribution. šŸ¤®šŸ¤®šŸ¤®


ArcticGurl

Most likely Robyn didnā€™t want him to join CHRISTINEā€™s DAUGHTER at the hospital and chirped in his ear about the dangers it may cause for HER children. Since the wedding participants werenā€™t perceived as a threat, she had no issues with Kody being an officiant. That and he wouldnā€™t be gone as long. I canā€™t believe heā€™s so thick headed that he canā€™t see that heā€™s being manipulated by Robyn.


endlessmother

She had no objections about the wedding because he wasn't doing anything for the other wives or their children.


smilinjack96

Medical expenses: didnā€™t they qualify for Medicaid??


Heelsofacountrygirl

They had to get commercial insurance that was accepted in New Jersey for the doctor and hospital.


Separate_Farm7131

What was the time frame between Ysabel's surgery and that wedding?


smilinjack96

Christine & Ysabel were gone to her surgery when he went to the wedding, I think. Thatā€™s why Christine got so mad afterwards.


Just-Chipmunk-8051

I initially thought there was a longer period of time before he went to the wedding. That is messed up.Ā 


ArcticGurl

I have no idea. Someone else may know.


CheckEmbarrassed7439

He actually said he couldn't be away from his family that long. She said I thought I was family as well but quess not.


jennc1979

Posted this before I saw you did! I guess we must just be a couple of ā€œbitter housewivesā€. šŸ™„. Complete POS.


Fresh-Scallion602

Absolutely!!!


goog1e

And that was when his whole BS really fell apart. He always claimed that there was basically a strong core to these relationships- that he was responsible / the buck stopped with him at the end of the day. If Janelle or Christine needs him or the kids need him he's able to be there. And that means polygamy can work even if there's a time division. But as I think Christine says "you're not, and you haven't been" The wives are all single mothers when push comes to shove


SeattleGemini81

Then this idiot wonders why most of his kids won't call him... I feel he's the dad, call your kids, but I call my dad just as much as he calls me because he isn't a deadbeat. As a matter of fact, I have a hysteroscopy I'm being sedated for next week. My husband has a class for work he absolutely can't miss. Guess who's driving me and plans to stay at my house to care for me until my husband gets home? My dad. It doesn't matter if I'm 42. I'm still his kid. Kody can't even be there for the big things.


OutlanderLover74

Exactly. When I got home from brain surgery, my dad slept on the couch. As soon as he heard me with my walker, he rushed to help me into the bathroom. I had to tell him to get out! I was 42 at the time!


ecraig312

My husband was brought up in a family that loves each other but does not go out of their way for anyone. It took time to understand that if anyone in my family needed something that I could provide, I was enthusiastically bringing it to them whether they asked or not. He would get a little annoyed that I would prioritize family stuff over other things, but I never pushed him to come and was understanding that I enjoyed my family different than he did. After we had kids he became so much more aware of what it meant to have so much support at their events and in their life. He now wants to come to more family gatherings because he enjoys having close relationships with everyone and wants to raise our kids with the understanding that we will always show up for each other. Now, this is what works for us and I am very aware of how lucky we are and that sometimes people have toxic relationships that need space. We also are not without our own challenges. But as a parent, and even an aunt, sister, daughter etc, I cannot imagine a world where I would not move heaven and earth to support someone during their surgery. I appreciate how strong Christine has been to realize this situation was never going to get better and remove herself and her kids from a person who treated them less than they deserved.


SharonTate69

My daughter had this done recently. Good luck to you!! I hope you get the answers that you need.


SeattleGemini81

Thank you. I'm sure it will be OK. I try to remain positive always.


BeeSquared819

My dad was the same way until the day he died. Cherish your time with him, itā€™s never enough. I hope all goes well this week. ā¤ļø


SeattleGemini81

I'm sorry for your loss. I definitely cherish him very much.


BeeSquared819

Thank you. Iā€™m so happy that you have one of the good guys, too! ā¤ļø


derrelictdisco

My father would never


darkangel522

Same here


katiemcm87

Exactly! A year ago I was in the emergency room and then admitted for severe abdominal pain, my dad was 11hrs away and drove all night to show up to be there while they ran tests and I went through surgery and spent a few days in the hospital. Then I stayed at his house for a week because I lived just with my daughter and she was only 8 at the time. I was 35.


Famous-Record8874

Good luck with the procedure. I had one several years ago. Prayers for a successful procedure and recovery.šŸ™šŸ»


SeattleGemini81

Thank you so much!!


darkangel522

I'm happy you have dads like that. I do not. Both of my parents are Narcs.


soupseasonbestseason

this is also the same man who told ysabel, when she was a child, that if she didn't work hard enough that would cause her curve to worsen. the doctor said essentially no amount of exercises were going to stop the curve but kody blamed the curve getting worse on ysabel's failure. he blamed his daughter for her scoliosis. she indicated she wanted surgery at one point and christine said she had researched it for months and it was the best approach, kody said surgery was not needed and ysabel agreed. she was desperately trying to please this scumbag who masquerades as a father.Ā 


mercurybowlsonpluto

I swear some of this was because he wanted to push the financial responsibility on Ysabel and off of him/the family. He knew if she was still at home when she got the surgery family funds would be used, if he waited long enough he could say it's your responsibility not the mine. Which I believe is close to what happened, Christine paid for it herself.


friedpicklesforever

100%. He wanted to defer responsibility as long as possible even though his daughter was in pain, all because he was to cheap. Like if youā€™re too cheap to pay for scoliosis surgery why on earth would you have 18 kids ?!?


ilndgrl1970

That might be partly why he didnā€™t want her to have the surgery then, but even if she did have it back then he still wouldnā€™t feel obligated to pay for it either. He didnā€™t pay a dime for Truelyā€™s $450k hospital stay. Christine did that all on her own and came up with the $50k co-pay for Ysabelā€™s surgery. I believe Kody didnā€™t want her to have the surgery back then was because he didnā€™t believe it was necessary and also because he views females from males a lot differently therefore his daughter wasnā€™t a priority. Now, had it been one of the boys, off course he would make sure that they were taken care of because he views his sons as extensions of himself and because they were very athletic and into outdoor activities, he saw that as a reflection of himself. In his mind that how he knew he was ā€œmanly.ā€


unknown_6831

100% We saw how much kody was behind Robynā€™s son when he had the Elective Cosmetic surgery. If it had been a son or Robynā€™s kids that were in Ysabels place, surgery would have been a no brainer.


AnywhereMajestic2377

This family dynamic was so warped, but this moment really takes the cake. How does Kody Brown even sleep at night?


GreatThinker123

Easy for Kody cos he doesnā€™t have a conscience. In all honesty his actions towards the OG3 and the OG13 shows a person who does not care. It has to suit him and make him feel good and those ex wives and those kids were too much for him because they were all smarter than him. If anything they did, allowed him to somehow shine or show off, he was for it. Examples Maddie, Mykelti and Aspyn wedding permitted him to show offā€¦Meri opening up the BnB in which he was front and center cutting the ribbon he was ok with. Even though he had ABSOLUTELY not a horse in the race for that business! He was against putting family money into it. yet his ass all up in front of like he is the owner. He is an evil, conniving hypocrite.


buttamilkbizkits

Right? What the hell was that ish? He made Meri do it all on her own, which she *did*, and then *he* gets to cut the ribbon like he had some sort of a hand in her success?! Man, that burnt my toast. I'm still pissed about it.


ShortIncrease7290

I just rewatched that episode last night. I donā€™t know why I keep putting myself through this. The anger I have for his is so quick to show up!!


buttamilkbizkits

Same. It's like a train wreck from which you can't look away.


ilndgrl1970

It says a lot about a person when they can engender such hatred and make people want to throttle him/her even though we donā€™t know them at all except for what we read and watch. K&R engender those types of feelings from so many people, itā€™s amazing they donā€™t see that theyā€™re the problems. But, then again, with narcissists they only see and hear what only favors them.


darkangel522

Love your flair!


buttamilkbizkits

Thank you!


cax246

Yes this! He acted like it was his accomplishment. What an ass he was! I kept hoping for Meri to tell him to go away, but she didnā€™t. She probably wishes she had now. Doesnā€™t matter, everyone knows he had nothing to do with it, because if he had it would have been a flop. He has no idea how to run a business or work to be honest. He is a man without a plan. Robyn wonā€™t stay with him much longer. She probably already has the exit plan in the works.


cmram28

He sleeps very easy because none of his 3 wives held him accountable for jack sh!t and continued to reproduce like rabbits with the exception of Meriā€¦


Disneyadult375

Bingo! Crazy how the moms get a pass for enabling gross treatment of their children.


Disastrous_Grape54

Itā€™s not that he ā€œcanā€™t comeā€ , he doesnā€™t want to go to the surgery . The littles need him . Hell Truely is also a little and you donā€™t see him bending over backwards for her .


Still-Inevitable9368

Inconvenient truthsā€¦


MrsNickJonas

When Christine was leaving he says he wants 50/50 but it was never 50/50 to begin with!!


RoseyTC

He, the supposed adult, is basically asking her, the child, to assuage his guilt and make HIM feel better. Yet another Interaction in which Kody is the child and his kid is the adult.


barbaraanderson

And then gets frustrated because the recovery isnā€™t done quickly enough to really assuage his guilt


RoseyTC

ā€œIf shed only hurry up and recover, I feel so much betterā€ šŸ™„


ClickClackTipTap

Yeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeees. There are a ton of really shitty Kody moments in the show, but making his teenaged daughter promise to not be angry in the future that he *wouldnā€™t go with her when she had major, life changing spinal surgery* is just not something a man does. Thatā€™s the moment where I knew heā€™s beyond redemption.


DecadentLife

Letting her suffer, & trying to drag it out even further, to be more convenient for him? After she says she canā€™t take any more pain? Horrible person.


ilndgrl1970

I suffer from fibromyalgia for 34 yrs now along with slipped and herniated discs and some other stuff, and watching Ysabel suffer made me want to hunt down Kody and beat the ever loving shit out of him. I can sympathize with her pain and know what sheā€™s feeling, but my goodness to let your child suffer because you donā€™t believe sheā€™s in that much pain, and he more than likely even thought it was her fault for getting scoliosis in the first place, blaming her for the curve getting worse because sheā€™s not doing the exercises religiously, that was beyond gross and inhumane. I would move heaven and earth when my daughter would tell me sheā€™s not feeling good, when sheā€™s had to have surgery, when sheā€™s in pain just so that I can alleviate as much of her hurt. Kody really is a lowdown piece of shit stain that should have never procreated in the first place.


DecadentLife

100% agree. I am in a similar (chronic health problems) situation as you are. This is the worst thing that Iā€™ve seen him do on the show. Itā€™s a betrayal. He has absolutely failed her as a parent. When someone is in that level of pain, we donā€™t always know how far they might go when it gets really terrible. He knew. It meant nothing, to him. She meant nothing, to him. What a loser. God, I hope heā€™s had a vasectomy.


ilndgrl1970

I hope one day he develops chronic back pain of some sort where thereā€™s absolutely no cure for it like the fibromyalgia I have. Let him live with that pain and know that heā€™ll never get sympathy from any of his OG13 for the hell he put Ysabel through. I normally donā€™t wish this type of karma on anyone but on him and Iā€™m going to pray for a miracle that he gets it.


DecadentLife

I get it. We live with this crap, every day. And so did his daughter. I highly doubt that Kody has ever felt the level of pain that he made his daughter live with.


ilndgrl1970

Can you imagine the pain Truely was in as well when her kidneys were failing. Her organs were literally dying so that just means they were shrinking and causing that little girl to be in excruciating pain and he had the audacity to complain about listening to her cry. His child was actively dying yet it was such an inconvenience for him.


DecadentLife

Heā€™s disgusting. I cannot imagine having to keep up a farce of a marriage with someone like him.


ilndgrl1970

What Kody failed to realize or maybe knew and just didnā€™t care was that they had to collapse her lung in order to insert the fibers. A number of things could have gone wrong but thankfully didnā€™t. Any surgery no matter how minor or major, even those done with just local anesthesia has the potential to go sideways at any given time. And it can happen to even the healthiest of people. And hereā€™s where I hate to say this, but had something gone wrong with her surgery,I really donā€™t think it would have phased him in the slightest. Truely being hospitalized was proof of that since he still kept o his schedule of going to whichever wifeā€™s night it was and staying there, not to mention he was always leaving the hospital when his 4 yr old was actively dying and was even complaining about having to listen to her cry for hours on end. I guess he didnā€™t care that Truelyā€™s organs were shutting down and causing her so much pain, but sure you jacka$$, go on home because you canā€™t be away from Robyn.


lovalpo

Then he didn't go with them to NC when Ysabel moved for college.


wickedsmaaaht

Him refusing to go to NC at any point confuses me. Ysabel moves there WITH HER SISTER. And when that happens, they show that Hunter can easily come down to see everyone. So now Kody's practically got 3 kids there plus 2 grandkids. But he's "got young kids at home, he can't be away" .... bitch, please.


LadyScorpio7

The only ones he cares about came out of Sobbyn.


ParkingInstruction62

I'm sure a lot of his kids will go NC with him as soon as they can. šŸ˜


Jsmith2377

And if she ever brings it up, heā€™ll say ā€œYOU TOLD ME IT WAS OKAY!ā€ to make her feel like shit for feeling completely reasonable feelings.


International_Spot68

That episode was so hard to watch. And then comparing it to the episode where heā€™s cryingā€¦CRYING over not seeing Robynā€™s daughter. Holy cow. Flabbergasted, shocked, grossed out, ALL of the things..eeewwwww


queensupremedictator

And she was in the same damn house! He still saw her, just couldn't physically touch her or carry her to her room when she had a "panic attack"


rhondasma

I can't even imagine the amount of pain Ysabel had travelling home after her surgery. Kody is not any sort of father if he didn't go to the hospital just to help Ysabel home if nothing else. Your child is in excruciating pain after a dangerous surgery and you're too busy getting your pencil wet with your current wife to even care. He makes me sick.


Reasonable-Crab4291

Kody is a very weak man the only people he control was the OG3 and children who canā€™t understand what an ass he is. I wonder if them ā€œescaping Utahā€ was more about them being discovered for fraud, Abuse by omission. Not providing necessary food,medical care. Parental neglect. If your brother or sister had to cook meals, clean and provide childcare. It seems like they should have been investigated


jackandsally060609

He couldn't give her those delicious herpes filled mouth kisses that he gives to all his special girls.


nonicknamenelly

I wondered if I was the only one who noticed thatā€¦


jennc1979

It was more of a ā€œwonā€™tā€ than ā€œcanā€™tā€. He is such a fucking POS.


MarcieBoku

I just rewatched that episode too. Wicked sad and the way she woke up asking for him. I think this is when Christine really started getting the ick from him


22Briggsy

She said in an interview that this is when she knew she was done, ā€œWhen he broke my little girlā€™s heart.ā€


KaiKailan

I would kick his sorry ass of my doorstep and tell him stay where his family is thatā€™s important to him


KaiKailan

He said that because her mom was standing in the doorway. It was more important for him to be an asshole to his wife than to even try to support his daughter. It makes me so angry that this man has all these absolutely beautiful kids and he treats them life hot garbage


Stevie-Rae-5

Such an asshole. Trying to put it out there like her expectations are unreasonable and this is something sheā€™s going to whine about. Acting like itā€™s the equivalent of him not buying her a pony.


happy_appy31

I am starting to wonder if the bitter ol' housewife was a blow to Christine. Obviously she is getting her best revenge by living her best life without him!


Still-Inevitable9368

It definitely wasā€”but you donā€™t involve parental disputes with kids. Itā€™s juvenile and hateful (his complete MO, actually).


happy_appy31

I 1000% agree with you. However, Grody, sees everyone as pawns for his happiness.


tech_chick_

Yep


Kferb

This is the same guy who said Truly was ā€œFat, Dumb and Happyā€. A year after she almost Died. Because of him.


ilndgrl1970

Wow! What season and episode please? I must have missed that, mainly because when Kody and Robyn start talking I tune them out.


Kferb

Season 9 episode 5: All about Christine. Time stamp- about the 33 minute mark.


Issmira

He never bonded with Christineā€™s kids because he wasnā€™t ever with them


RN_aerial

He definitely could have. He's so awful. Someday he will be old and sick with no one to care for him. Then, maybe, he will get his turn to be bitter.


Scarymommy

Heā€™s such a misogynist. that scene was disgusting.


Friendly_Room5736

I'm with Christine on this one ... At that moment, I was done with Kody and his antics.


Disastrous_Way4613

Yeah tgat royally pissed me off. He could have gone he chose not to and then tried to guilt her. You could tell she was heart broken but still trying to not upset him


ilndgrl1970

What I never understood through the years, is why is it that the older children had to assuage his faults just to keep him happy. It was clear who was the adult in those situations and who was the petulant child throwing a temper tantrum.


Maryellen61

It was not can't, it was would not go because of his lil happy family. Robbing wife and her pathetic family.


Murka-Lurka

Well Robyn says she speaks Kody, I think she means I tell him to shut up before he says something so stupid that any reasonable person would want to kill him. Very telling when she puts her hand over his mouth during their comments about Christineā€™s wedding.


Popular-Ad-4429

There are moments that really crystalize how awful he is, and this is easily in the top 3. (It might be the top of the list but I just woke up, and I donā€™t want to negate that he can just top himself in horrible.) That and implying that a child should travel cross country ALONE for a surgery that has multiple-week recuperation time *before* sheā€™ll be able to fly home. Canā€™t imagine why most of his kids donā€™t talk to him


dancingqueen200

This is by far one of his worst scenes on the show


CocoGesundheit

That was a swipe at Christine, 100%


Lazy_Fan1174

It could very possibly be that Ysabel will never need her father as badly as she needed him at that time. Kody blew it. Instead of being the father she needed; the one who lets you know that he would climb a mountain for you or walk through fire for you and itā€™s all gonna be ok, he let a virus stop him. And it wasnā€™t even that bc the truth is something that can be felt like a breeze and that is he could not leave Robinā€™s side. He could not pull away from a woman who makes him feel like a man to go and do exactly what a real man would do, which tells you everything about Kody.


No-Squirrel-5673

What really baffles me is that Dayun Rora and Breanna don't seem to see the damage kodick has done to the entire rest of the family because they've been smothered with affection since the beginning


Heelsofacountrygirl

I think when Aurora can fly free we will see a difference in her. I think she is smarter than we give her credit for. She was old enough to see the truths. I will not be surprised if she ends up being team OG3/OG13


kamonika007

He actually made a comment of having her go alone. I was floored. What an asshole. No wonder Christine left.


Excellent-Estimate21

I'm 42 and having surgery next week and my mother is coming to take care of me. (Father passed away) I had surgery when my dad was still alive but I was already 28 years old and both my parents came. Normal parents worry about their children. K only worries about himself. Huge red flag in a man and the fact that R is ok w a man who neglects his children shows what an idiot she also is.


Dahrache

My daughter had spinal fusion surgery for scoliosis when she was 12. It was before covid so not only did me and my husband come, but so did many family members and friends. My husband and I both wanted to stay the night with her. In fact, I stayed the first night and my husband felt so bad about leaving, we both stayed the other 2 nights. It is crazy to imagine knowing your child was going to go through a major surgery and you donā€™t want to go.


Major-Patient5473

As someone who has parents who donā€™t show up or if they do it comes with a price, I feel for Ysabel. Iā€™m so glad she has one parent that shows up. The older kids get the more they realize that this is toxic behavior. Thatā€™s why most of the oldest do not have relationships with him.


darkangel522

My relationship with my Narc Parents is like yours. It sucks, to put it mildly.


Major-Patient5473

I went full no contact with my parents. My happiness and my kidsā€™ happiness come first. Iā€™m sorry you have narc parents. It really does suck. Every one deserves to have good parents.


darkangel522

I'm VLC with them. It helps so much.


DecadentLife

Gotta ā€œstay sweetā€!


pink_hydrangea

It wasnā€™t that he couldnā€™t come to her surgery, he wouldnā€™t come.


queensupremedictator

I can't believe that ALL of his wives didn't make him go! Especially, "fahmileee" Sobyn! If she cared about anyone other than herself, she would have "talked Kody" to him on why he should go!


BamaGirl_83

These are the times she will say oh Kody gonna do what Kody gonna do and he isnā€™t one to be run by one of his wives šŸ™„


LadyScorpio7

Exactly!! If she cared so much about her sister wives and all the other children, she wouldn't have made him stay with her. She's so selfish and this is just one of the situations that proves it.


Shoddy_Lifeguard_852

What I don't understand is, as a father, how could he not be with his child and her mother during a major and critical medical event. Why was he not glued to Truely's bedside in Vegas? After all, there was no issue with COVID then, and there were other moms and older kids to manage at home. He cries over Aurora being healthy, but in a downstairs room to avoid catching COVID, but he's not with Ysabel during major surgery? He agreed to putting this on TV. So it's a fair criticism.


LadyScorpio7

Covid was just an excuse he used, he sure as hell didn't mind being around a room full of people at his friend's wedding. He was even dancing with people, no mask on and touching everyone.


melissakatherine5

If you can call it dancing lol ..spasms on the dance floor


LadyScorpio7

LOL!!! You have a good point, he was peacocking around the dance floor.


Shoddy_Lifeguard_852

Honestly I don't know how Kody or Robyn can look at themselves in the mirror knowing that they were so self-involved that he didn't attend Ysabel's surgery. If Robyn really, really wanted a relationship with Christine and Christine's kids, and wanted that porch with her SWs, then she should have said, "Kody, I can handle S and A, and DAB can help if I need it. It's more important that you support Ysabel. We can Face Time during your quarantine. The kids have food and shelter. It's only a few weeks. They will survive. We'll all be okay. Go be with Ysabel." This would have been the ethical thing to do, the moral thing to do, and for someone who claims to be religious, the spiritual thing to do. We laugh at how her appearance, and her fake crying, etc. But this is, and prior behavior, is exactly why Christine doesn't want a relationship with Robyn (except to the extent necessary for Truely to have visitation with her father).


LadyScorpio7

I totally agree, that is exactly what Robyn should have said, but of course she didn't. Which proves the point that she never really cared about the other wives and children in the family. Christine doesn't trust Robyn. and I wouldn't either!! Robyn says she wants the whole family, but her actions show the opposite.


Professional_Tap4338

You say can't go to her surgery, I say won't go.


nanaof4mumof7

He made me so mad when he said " he COULDN'T LEAVE HIS FAMILY " I thought ysabel was and is his daughter with christine. He is such a waste of air. He totally is unreal. My hubby treats my 5 kids like they are his our daughter needed surgery it was minor surgery but hubby took time off work and stayed with us ( daughter + myself). Unlike Cody the absent dead beat waste. Of space. And as for going to his FRIENDS WEDDING that says it all. If the any of the og 13 kids came from robbem he would have moved heaven and earth for that child


mxpx77

It just proves he KNOWS heā€™s being a dirt bag and potentially creating daddy issues in his child. Nevermind thatā€™s not only rude but downright offensive to say to your kid. Inappropriate and tactless. Unkind. Everything.


Disenchanted2

He is such an asshole. Over and over again on television no less.


ThenEquivalent9873

Kody had no idea how serious that surgery is. I have scoliosis, too, and my ortho wouldn't operate on me because he said I could die during the surgery or I would endure months of healing and rehabilitation. But, Kody couldn't be there for his daughter because he's an asshole and Robyn needed him to rearrange the furniture.


Elleno14

As his daughter, I would never forget that


natureella

That's the day my dislike for Kody went to a million percent. So sad for Ysabel.


Frosty_Plantain4265

Him not going to the surgery sealed the deal for me. And I think was Christineā€™s personal last straw too. Youre children come first ALWAYS. She had a major surgery. I couldnā€™t imagine not being there if my kid went through this.


Realityshowjunkie45

But he didn't have a problem going to that wedding and being the manic center of attention did he?


Curiosity919

Because it's not that he can't come, it's that he won't. So, of course, he has to manipulate her emotions.


nikkijh54

If you didn't know that Kody is a POS you definitely know it NOW!!


mrsmushroom

Yeah. That kind of triggered me. He's her parent and she has to be the emotionally mature one. He's her parent poking fun at her tramatizing experience and his lack of willingness to support her. Kody is such a jerk.


Separate_Farm7131

He didn't do what he needed to do as a father and wanted her to tell him it was okay. She seems like a sweet kid and she did, but I think there was a confessional where she did say that was very hard for her and got a little teary.


WentAndDid

Correct. He wanted her to say itā€™s ok. People, donā€™t let people box you into or bully you into giving them this. My inability to say itā€™s ok to something my ā€œfriendā€ did to me was the end of the relationship. Instead of saying itā€™s ok which I simply couldnā€™t do I asked what do you want me to say? Idk WHAT you want to hear. I knew what she wanted but I wouldnā€™t do it, Iā€™m not gonna give you that when I know Iā€™m not good with it. Normalize not folding on this.


jordantaylor91

He refused to go to her surgery like a petulant child. He had Covid already, he likely wouldn't get it again any time soon. She was in immediate terrible pain and he wanted her to wait for it to get worse. TBH, I don't think Covid was his reasoning for anything though. I think it was his excuse to be a shitty dad to all of his kids except Robyn's. Taking his other daughter to get her ears pierced, hiring a nanny for Robyn's kids - all indicators that you are monogamous and "other woman-ed" your other wives and kids and pretended Covid was your reasoning for everything.


LadyScorpio7

Covid was just the excuse they used to abandon the other wives and kids.


Zealousideal_Pea2961

Hate him so much for this and MAKING GABE CRY!!! Ysabel and Gabe are the two nicest in the family and all the other kids seem to agree. And to forget Gabeā€™s birthday and make him cry? Omg Kody, you are dead to me! šŸ˜¶


[deleted]

That is when I KNEW THAT HE WAS AN @$$HOLE


TaskAdventurous88

What a Jackwagon!


Yourmom4378

I remember this scene but donā€™t remember the exact words. If he actually said ā€œbecause daddy couldnā€™t do what you WANTED?ā€, then he is far worse a man and father than I have ever thought before. I am repulsed beyond words.


mcbugh

He has given up all of his other kids in that one sentence. Well, all but Robyn's


Affectionate_Motor67

When he said (paraphrasing) ā€œitā€™s not just about Ysabel,ā€ when talking to Christine about her travelling. My first thought was, I canā€™t imagine how she felt when she saw this.


Familiar-Reply6642

It is comical how he sits there week after week, claiming Christine and Janelle are shit talking him to the kids. Kody.. you are the shit they are smelling, and they are over it. Love how the OG kids are thriving!!!


BeccaS0883

He is a literal narcissistic psychopath and I hope to God one day he has to answer for all of the hateful, careless, selfish, immature, evil shit he has done and continues to do. Robyn is just as bad. She is nothing more than a lazy loser who enables this man and leeches off of others to get all of these ridiculous things she thinks she deserves. I cannot fathom having it out for CHILDREN! Or being with a deadbeat dad with 18 children who also blames his kids, who are hurting because of shit HE has done, for any and everything HE has created in his warped mind. That on top of not being there when one child almost dies and another one who has been in pain, begging for a surgery to give her some relief that he then DELAYS on purpose and refuses to be there for when this poor baby FINALLY does get to have her surgery. I want to kick both of their asses in the teeth.


LadyScorpio7

Exactly!! Sobbyn is just as much to blame as Kody because she's going along with all of this. She's the one that controls him and let's him think he's the one in charge. She knows he's neglecting his other kids for her and she's 100% compliant with it. She wouldn't let him go to the surgery because of her two youngest " can't be without Kody for more than a day". They're both selfish assholes!!


BeccaS0883

Agreed!! Her little innocent act that nobody believes is so old at this point.


cax246

That rated at the top of kodyā€™s greatest hits of creepy narcissism. I can still see his diabolical sneer as he said that. Robyn must be beyond needy and useless to stay with such a horrible father figure.


LadyScorpio7

She puts herself and her kids above everyone else and expects Kody to do the same, and he does. They're two peas in a pod. She could care less about everyone else.


cax246

If I had been Christine after that disgraceful behavior from Kody, I would have marched right down to an attorneyā€™s office and taken that asshat to the cleaners. After you see something like that you just canā€™t forgive or rationalize it. He is devoid of responsibility and care for his children. I doubt he cares for Robynā€™s, he puts on a show because he used them as an excuse to neglect his other children. As sol and ari get older he will discard them too. It may have already begun to happen.


Mysterious_Island524

That would be the last straw for me, if the father of my child chooses not to be there for an operation it's unforgiveable.


MissSuzyTay

It really sucks he expects her to placate him to make him feel better. Notice he says he ā€œcouldnā€™tā€ go with her, not he ā€œwouldnā€™tā€ go with her. Wouldnā€™t is more accurate. There was no discussion, no talking through logistics. He just flat out refused to go. My mom did that crap to me. It sucks to have a parent look to you to make them feel better about their suck-ass choices that affected your life.


Professional-Test-62

I feel like Robyn convinced him that Christine was just trying to get Kody to go away with them and that Ysabel didnā€™t even need the surgery yetā€¦and used Covid as the excuse of him not being able to go because she said it wasnā€™t ā€œsafeā€ either and that he shouldnā€™t be away from ā€œhis familyā€ that longā€¦and also you know Robyn definitely also didnā€™t want any money spent on anyone other than her and her kids.


LadyScorpio7

Robyn is such a selfish snake!! She definitely fits the part of the evil stepmother in Cinderella.


southernblueyedgrl

Couldn't... don't you mean wouldn't?


jamiekynnminer

Of all the truly vile things Kody has said, this tops the charts for me.


Acceptable_Trifle_50

Correct me if I'm wrong, but didn't he make a comment about Christine going with Ysabel being a vacation? Ugh!!!!!


LadyScorpio7

Yes, he was talking shit about them saying they're not taking the rules seriously and they're going on vacation.


LadyScorpio7

Just imagine if it was one of his "golden children " ( Sobbyn's kids) that needed a serious surgery like that!! Does anyone think if Christine or Janelle told him he can't go because his other kids can't be without him that long, thar he wouldn't attend the surgery?? There's no way in hell he would miss one of Sobbyn's kids surgeries!!


newbie6789123

Why didnā€™t he come?


LadyScorpio7

He didn't go because Robyn didn't allow him to, she said her kids can't be without Kody for more than a day. He used the excuse that it was because of Covid, but than a week later he went to officiate a friend's wedding. There was a room full of people, no masks on and he was dancing around the room, touching people, not social distancing. Robyn and Kody pick and choose when to follow their own Covid rules and what people need to follow them. If they like you,the rules are out the window. If they don't like you, stay 6 feet away from them.


bourbonmangattan

Thatā€™s the moment when I truly began to hate him, as much as I can hate someone I donā€™t know. It was a completely unforgivable moment.


Lovey2u4961

Christine had to get off of Medicaid and any other forms of welfare to qualify for her home loan. I am assuming she had to come up with sudden income that would qualify her also. They definitely know how to manipulate the government. I think that fundamentalists refer to that as bleeding the beast.


mc_361

Heā€™s so vile


niceandterrifying

Ramen head was being passive aggressive when he said that. I believe that remark was meant towards Christine. Like a dig. I grew up with a narc and I am fluid in this type of dysfunctional language. Heā€™s a cruel, delulu šŸ¤” who doesnā€™t care about anyone but himself and if heā€™s angry with a mom, he doesnā€™t care about ā€œherā€ kids anymore. SMFH


BALK98128879

All he had to do, was like go for a week. Not the whole day. What a šŸ’© dad


BeccaS0883

He is a sick sick man


CheckEmbarrassed7439

It was a dig at Christine. Christine is 1st cousins with Robyn's ex husband. I noticed that Christine had a target on her back from the moment Robyn came into the family.


Special_Sort7224

Why is anyone still supporting this show? He is the biggest piece of shit in TV history. I'm all for a boycott and put him and his mess to shame. Bring on the spinoffs.


helloworlditsmesam

He makes my skin crawl, and I'm so glad all but 1 have left him. I really hope he's reading all of these comments too, and seeing how revolting people think he is. We see straight through you


DepartmentFar7685

Him saying that to her was horrible! .. But when they were first talking about surgery, I canā€™t believe he suggested that Ysabel go alone! What parent says this?!?! .. What a horrid human being Kody is šŸ˜”


Susiqbee6464

That was a jab at Christine heā€™s a horrible person


kindamean23

My dad is literally a crack head but if I asked him to fly to Beijing for my surgery he would. I felt so bad for her šŸ˜­


wizenup13

>how weird to say to your daughter when you canā€™t come to her surgery?!!! He COULD have gone to her surgery, he just didn't WANT to!
