Summary

  • Teen Mom star Farrah Abraham pushes boundaries with over-the-top choices, like buying her daughter a $123K Cybertruck.
  • Farrah's controversial decisions, from acting in adult films to assaulting a security guard, show her dark side.
  • However, Farrah's issues with her parents, whom she alleges abused her, have formed her character. She isn't just a villain - Farrah is a victim.

Farrah's a drama queen who makes terrible choices isn't always a bad thing. However, now and then, she goes too far. From the start of her Teen Mom franchise stint, she's been ratings gold, but some of her decisions are so sketchy that they're actually concerning.

When she debuted on Teen Mom, Farrah was naturally beautiful, but her attitude was horrible. She had some serious "mommy issues" - in fact, she hated the woman who gave birth to her, Debra Danielson. Farrah said her mom and dad abused her when she was a child. She's tried to make peace with her mom, but Debra's a tough cookie. On 16 and Pregnant, Debra lashed out at Farrah, slapping her after becoming inflamed by her "Anti-Christ attitude." Her mother's a control freak who shouldn't judge anyone. Things didn't get this bad between them for no reason at all.

Reality TV is more popular than ever. With so many to choose from, here are some of the best reality TV shows to stream or watch right now.

Farrah Just Bought Her Daughter Sophia A Cybertruck

It's Sophia's Very First Car

her daughter Sophia Abraham a Tesla Cybertruck valued at 123K. This was a gift for a teen who doesn't even have a driver's license. It's a wildly extravagant gift, and frankly, this all seems like a way to grab headlines. While Farrah surely loves her daughter, giving her such a hot car at such an early age is very "out there." This is possibly too much vehicle for a driver in training!

Sure, it's Farrah's money, and she can spend it however she wants, but this is ostentatious.

Farrah's parenting has often been criticized. Buying her kid a super cool electric vehicle is a loving thing - however, it may also be a publicity stunt. Yes, wealthy people tend to buy their kids nice cars. However, they aren't usually this amazing. The Cybertruck is going to get attention. People are going to ask, "how did Teen Mom's Farrah Abraham get this much money?" The answer is reality TV and another lucrative gig - stripping.

Farrah Is A Rule-Breaker

Is She Right Or Wrong?

I think that stripping is a job like any other - I don't think that women should be shamed for doing it. It's a transactional thing - the issue is that it may emotionally damage women. The same can be said of performing in adult films, which Farrah has also done. Some can handle that kind of lifestyle better than others. Hopefully, Farrah can handle it. In 2023, Farrah got in trouble for assaulting a security guard. In 2019, she was entangled in a battle over unpaid rent. She even bought her daughter an albino python.

Sophia was born on:

February 23, 2009

Farrah Abraham was born on:

May 31, 1991

These choices may show that she's not that stable. There are clearly issues - she gets violent, she doesn't honor her financial obligations, Farrah makes offbeat choices as a mother. Maybe the life she's leading isn't the problem, but there's always the chance that being a part of the adult entertainment industry is affecting her. Many adult film stars live with addiction and depression.

Buying that vehicle doesn't make Farrah a villain, but not paying rent while buying other things does. Getting violent is also villain stuff. The decisions she makes as a mom may or may not hurt her daughter. She put a lot of makeup on her daughter when she was little and that got noticed, and not in a good way. Sophia was 10, and definitely didn't need makeup. However, Farrah thinks it's just fine. She says people will tear her apart no matter what she does. She's right.

So, Farrah's a villain for financial games, violence and generally acting like society's archetype of the "bad girl." She won't follow society's rules - she makes her own. In a sense, she's empowered. However, there are clues that it's not all a bed of roses. She's still estranged from her family, the mom-shaming she gets is out of control, and she seems unstable sometimes. An ex accused her of drug abuse. She's changed her beautiful face with plastic surgery, and overhauled her body too.

Under all that anger, there's the scared little girl who wants her parents to stop hitting her, if what she says is true. Those early experiences formed the "villain" that fans love to hate today. Since her mother slapped her when she was an adult, it's not such a stretch that she's telling the truth about her childhood. Maybe her parents were monsters. Now, Farrah, deprived of typical love and nurturing during her early years and beyond, has to go it alone. She does what she can to survive.

Yes, she's a Teen Mom villain like Jenelle - in fact, Farrah's the most famous (and perhaps the most hated) of them all, but I don't hate her. I just worry about her, and Sophia too. Hopefully, Farrah's in a good place in her life. A lot of people love to judge without walking in other people's shoes. They have no idea how they've suffered, and they don't care. I want Farrah to be okay even if she's not a good person all the time. I don't want her to become a casualty of fame.
