This show is such a guilty pleasure because I live about 15 minutes away, haha. My daughter is the same age as Colton but goes to the other high school in the area. Scary what I saw, I would never leave her alone for one night let along an entire weekend. Colton jumps in his friends car with a 16 year and in California, a teen has to be licensed for one full year before they can drive kids around and if he is just 16, he has not been licensed one year. And they show it on camera!! Love seeing all the shops, restaurants that I know but believe me, what you see on the show is not the norm for the area though there is a lot of that around.

She looks unfavorably upon down sizing or even backing off on her career. I hope she never has to say "I wish I had spent more time with my hubby".

Marameko, I was shocked when Vicki kept saying the new house was so small. I knew her old house was 5,000 sq. feet..(wow!) and when her husband said the new house was 4,000 sq. feet, I couldn't believe it. That's what she calls small? If she gets her way with everything she just has to have on the new pool, they might as well have not moved at all.

Regarding Josh living with the ex, it never entered my mind that it was romantic, lol. The woman has to be in her 40's at least right? The daughter is 18. I can't tell how old the father is, but I'd say over 40. When Josh was saying he was moving away emotionally from Lori as a mother, I thought he meant he was replacing the other woman as a mother figure. He seems desperate to be loved and accepted.

Laurie seems to be too selfish. Don't get me wrong, at this point Josh should be on his own. What I am saying is that if only his mom had "been there" for him during the early years, maybe he would not be such a mess. She seems like the type of mother who is always thinking about her needs and wants before she thinks about her children's.

Laurie's older daughter is 22 so Josh has to be round 17ish to 19 maybe. He has issues probably stemming from the lack of good parenting. Hell she didn't want the oldest daughter moving back in when she was in the townhouse.

I know. In my culture only a bad mother kicks her kids out. To hear a mother talk like Laurie does would be shocking to a lot of mothers/fathers that I know.

I thought romantic too when she said that, either way it sounded sick to me.

I am the last person to defend any of these women, but I feel the need to say or remind, that though many times issues stem from bad parenting, there are bad people out there that came from good parents. In particular when your issues are concerning drug abuse. Good kids get mixed up and no matter how you try to help they won't take it. At some point even parents have to lay down a line.

There were articles about Laurie and Josh and George's ex-wife in the Orange County Register out here.

You can find out more about it from the time frame it was actually happening and they interviewed Josh and the rest by going to
ocregister.com and typing Real Housewives of Orange County in the search box.

Thanks Bee- I agree with the writer. I think the most "normal" of all of them is Vicki's husband. I do feel so sorry for him-and Vicki's daughter- Vicki is a very sick woman- she needs help. I thought she was taking care of the control issues- they seem to be getting worse. These people are a mess!

What date was the article about the son written?I read a few of the articles and couldn't find it. All I could find was that Laurie said a reporter wrote bad things about her family.

Thanks.

My cousin lives in Lake Forest. How far is that from OC?

I have no idea of the date. I read it some time ago. A reporter with the Register befriended Josh...got him a job, etc. and did some personal interviews with him.

Lake Forest is IN Orange County and is very very close to Coto.

I live in Lake Forest myself and it is very close to Coto, about 15 minutes. Coto De Caza is very diverse, it has everything from multi-million dollar estates to nice townhomes to kind of junky condos. The shows makes it seems like all of Coto is like the house Jeana and Vicki have but it is not. Tamara lives in a community outside of Coto and Laurie I think is in San Juan Capistrano which is south of Coto. I think George has a ranch there.

Thanks, Beekind and Kellma. I didn't realize Lake Forest was that close to Coto.

Here are the two columns where Josh calls the reporter and then Lauri calls to tell her side. I can't go forward to find his columns after that. It seems George (Lauri's fiance) and his ex-wife are in a custody battle and there seems to be a son that lives with her. Also, I read somewhere else that George met Lauri right after breaking up with his fiance. Hmmmm.

Here's the website addys:

Not sure if you all noticed this, so for those that didn't about half way down the page in the middle is a picture of all of the housewives and a list of all the articles that he has written about the show.

Looks like the son's article was Feb, 2007

Okay, my favorite line last night when one of the daughters going to Miami was approaching the John Wayne Airport and one asked why is called John Wayne and the other said, "I don't know, isn't that the name of the person that made the airport". OMG, too funny! Vicki is a crack up, what a partier!!!! Looks like she belongs more in Lake Havasu than Coto

The thing that really blows my mind about these women is that they are willing to go on a national TV show and air all their dirty linen. And if I was willing, you can bet the rest of my family would not be. Do they get paid to appear and how much? It would take a lot to get me on there.

I hated the poor me when Vickie's husband yelled at her. She is so evil to that man on a daily basis, where is his poor me.

I am really loving Kara and I didn't the last season. I loved that she said her mom was in her prime but just not naked prime! That cracked me up.

OH yeah ETA

Nice moral crowd to bring Colton into if he is already dealing with issues.

I was lol'g that Vickie didn't want her Coto friends staying at the River house. Ok why was Jeanna in a bikini? And was she asked to pose in Playboy again?? <shudder> And I'm sorry but I hate for anyone to shush me that instantly gets on my nerves and makes my hackles rise. And Vickie shushed her husband out in the open.

I think the George being upset bout the tatt was stages. Just seemed phoney to me. I felt bad that Tammy's girls were being talked about by their friends due to them being on a budget.

So newgirl's oldest son went thru a training program at Mercedes so why dahell isn't he working at a dealership?

LOL you crack me up Mocha, I hate to be shushed too. Who shushes an adult. I really want Don to divorce Vickie, but then I guess that means we would have to watch her date, ugh.

I was a bit wide eyed that Jeanna wore a bikini too.

I have a feeling it is going to get dark for Tammy's girls.

I am reserving comments on the new family as of now, it is not leading up to being good comments the way it is going so far!

I felt bad that Tammy's girls were being talked about by their friends due to them being on a budget.

When Lou Knickerbocker lost his money years ago when these girls were little, they really took a terrible berating from the community. They were ridiculed horribly for being the "rich little girls that went poor." I'm sorry to see it looks like it's coming around for them again. That's rough.
