Why would you say this about a child on a public forum? We know enough about the roots of eating disorders that we understand a simple comment like this can trigger a lifetime of struggle at worst, and self-esteem issues at the least.

Her mom has given us plenty to discuss. Do we really need to target her young daughter?
I don't think I have "targeted" her daughter. Her daughter is chubby that is all I said and childhood obesity is real and pretending not to notice it doesn't make it go away either. I'm sure the girl just needs her mother to set better examples on eating and excercise it is simple as that.

Cynthia annoyed me with the line about being paid back her money. You are bout to get married, what do you mean get paid back?

Kandi assistant was tad abrasive but Kim needs it.

Phaedra and her sip and see. *yawn*

Nene interview was a snorefest but she is no Barbara Walters.

She made a "business" investment!! Why shouldn't she expect to be paid back? ANY investor would. Peter is a jerk...

No one's asking you to pretend anything, just suggesting we leave innocent children out of the personal attacks. As I said, Kim gives us plenty to talk about without bringing her child's weight into it. I'm guessing you don't have a daughter, or a child at all. Maybe to someone without kids, it seems harmless to say these things, but it can be a sensitive subject. That's all I was trying to say.

This is your future husband, your life partner, support him. You invested in y'all's future by investing in his restaurant. It didn't work out, cut your losses and go on to the next thing. She's gonna have to be more supportive if she intends to marry an entrepreneur, self-made businessman, whatever. The money is not always steady, especially in the beginning but all that my money, your money, pay me back **** gotta cease, it's just gonna 'cause tension.

Peter is delusional as well because he needs to sell but still...

I agree. Besides, I think if all it takes is some stranger pointing out the obvious (that she's overweight) to trigger an eating disorder, then there's more wrong there...besides, it's apparent she already has an eating disorder.

I would have to beeatche slap Kim so hard that her wig would come off if I had to be on the tour bus with her Wig-up and just deal with the "conditions"

I loved the behind the scenes footage of NeNe's interview Gee, you didn't do your homework before your interview Now that is setting a good example for your son (We see what influence she has with Bryson) I think it would take at least 3-4 Jermaine Dupris to make one NeNe

I didn't have a problem with Kandi's assistant. He obviously knows his job and runs a tight ship. He knows that he needs to keep everything moving so Kandi doesn't have to handle all the details.

Peter, Peter, Peter...throwing more money into a restaurant that is sinking isn't going to do a thing
