I totally agree with the below.

Macy's the only one that seems to do "OK" with her money, Amber seems like she's just not smart enough to do something with it to help her out. In the episode where she runs out to get an apt. so she can get her baby back it is highly unlikely anyone would rent to someone unemployed & without a hefty deposit seeing how she's so young & that seemed to be a nice place.

As for Farrah, braces I guess I could see, breast implants no freaking way. Clearly there is something her child either needs now or will need down the road. She's responsible for her for at least the next 16 years.

ETA: I hope they keep it hush about the compensation, that will just have more girls lining up to get on the show.

I don't know why Caitlyn & Tyler don't leave her obviously psycho & abusive mom if they have any money. As I've said before they're all very unrealistic to me. Money or not, their "hard times" do not touch on the reality of what a hard time is like for most teen parents.
