Kody and Robyn Brown, who are known for their reality show Sister Wives, have been facing criticism for allowing their six-year-old daughter to use a pacifier. In the latest episode of the 18th season that aired on Sunday, a flashback clip from Thanksgiving in November 2022 showed Ariella using a pacifier while looking at the food prepared for the holiday. This sparked outrage on social media, with many people calling the couple’s parenting ‘shameful’ and condemning their decision to let their child use a binky at that age.
Kody and Robyn Brown, from the TV show Sister Wives, are facing criticism for allowing their six-year-old daughter to use a pacifier.
On the most recent installment of the program, a throwback video was featured that captured a Thanksgiving celebration from back in November of 2022. In the clip, their daughter Ariella, who was just six years old at the time, could be seen using a pacifier.
On Sunday, a Twitter user commented on a video that showed a child holding a white pacifier and looking at some food prepared for a holiday. The user expressed dismay about the fact that the child is still being shown with a pacifier in flashback scenes.
The use of pacifiers to calm babies has been a topic of concern as it can lead to dental problems in children if used excessively. Medical professionals recommend that children should stop using pacifiers by the age of three to prevent crooked teeth or bite problems. However, in a recent episode of the TLC show Sister Wives, viewers noticed that Ariella, the daughter of Kody Brown and his wife Robyn, was still using a pacifier at the age of five or six, which sparked criticism from online users. This is not the first time the couple has faced backlash for allowing their child to use a binky past the recommended age. The show premiered in 2010 and follows the life of Kody and his four wives, who practice Mormon polygamy, and their 18 children living in four separate homes on the same cul-de-sac in Las Vegas, Nevada.
In 2010, the television program called Sister Wives made its debut on TLC. The series showcased the daily life of Kody, a polygamist who practices Mormonism, and his four wives: Meri, Janelle, Christine, and Robyn.
For more than ten years, the group of five individuals successfully maintained their unconventional relationship by residing in four different residences located on a cul-de-sac in Las Vegas, Nevada. Despite having a total of 18 children, they managed to coexist harmoniously.
Robyn became a member of the family in 2010, and she and Kody had two children together: a son named Solomon in 2011 and a daughter named Ariella in 2016. However, their journey was not without its challenges. As depicted in the 17 seasons of their show, the family went through problems caused by jealousy over Kody’s affection and attention, leading to bitter rivalries among the wives. These issues were exposed for the world to see. In 2021, Christine surprised everyone with her decision to move away from the family and officially end her relationship with Kody. This was due to tension that had been building up over how Kody treated Robyn.
