Her face is looking fatter and saggier.
Seems a lot of us are on the same page, none of this shit is really worth watching anymore. The thumbnail alone is enough. Seeing those sunken piggy eyes and dead stare is plenty good for me.
Yes.
And, FWIW, Tammy Slaton really cannot consent to anything. The doctor who performed surgery on her (don't watch the show, so IDK if he really did) has zero ethics, not that that's any surprise given what TLC is all about.
I don't think Amber can consent either. For one thing, it's very obvious she cannot read at her appropriate age level and frequently displays regression and seems proud about that. She needs long term, INTENSIVE psychological help and evaluation BEFORE EVEN STARTING TO THINK about trying to lose the requisite 30-50 pounds required to show commitment to a full lifestyle change.
Methinks Amber, like Tam Tam, is too tarded and really needs to be evaluated for lifetime transition/placement in a permanent group home setting with tard wranglers present for all activities--especially shopping.
Reality is, Fat Albert here was never deemed tarded, or tarded enough. Here in flyover territory (Kentucky included), a person would have to start pushing for a transitional plan back when Fat Albert was in ~ fourth/fifth grade. By eighth grade there should be a rough transitional plan already in place. Changes can be made in middle and high school.
But in the midwest, these services are scarce to the point of almost nonexistence. Amber would also benefit from tard day care which would have para transport picking her up and dropping her off. During the day she'd attend lifeskills classes, do her tard scratch art, tard legos, and whatever other tard projects. Problem is...only the tard wranglers would be there to roll their eyes as their last brain cells die while they fake tell her how good she is at this!
This WLS arc, like Tammy Slaton, is just very low down, gross, and grossly unethical. I understand a lot of people might be getting...some entertainment, but this kind of crosses a line with others, myself included. Amber cannot consent to this. Neither can Tammy. Both do not have the emotional and mental maturity/wherewithal to consent to such extreme and invasive procedures that are regarded as a magic bullet. But it's TLC, so I'm not shocked.
