Amber Portwood is no stranger to the courtroom but today she received a harsh verdict -- Portwood lost custody of her baby girl, Leah, according to TMZ.Portwood's baby daddy, Gary Shirley, was ruled the sole custodian of the couple's child, but not because he's a superior parent. Instead, custody was taken from Portwood due to the unsafe environment in which she is living -- her home and car were recently vandalized.
Child Protective Services believed that Portwood's home was an unsuitable living situation for a baby, a fact that Portwood reportedly agreed with. The ruling is reportedly only in effect until further notice.

Why do we have teen mothers in this day and age?
People should not be allowed to have kids until they can afford them. It's best for the children if they are provided for, and best for the public so we are not taxed to death . . . .

This child does not to be with either one of these people. You know Gary;s mom will be raising Leah.

So the child is taken from one loser and given to an even bigger loser. YEAH this is really going to help this child.

They should be in court trying to take MTV off the air instead. Those executives and producers need much therapy with the crap they ram down their viewers throats.

Gary has been nothing but a good father to little Leah. Her mother needed to lose custody a long time ago. That chick is 51/50 as far as I am concerned. She was letting some total stranger change the babys diaper and take care of her who in the HELL would do that???? That is just one of the things about the mom that is not to bright.

This goes to the author of this article. Calling this "thing" a star shows your lack of intelligence and credibility as a writer.

Don't blame the writer for the use of the word "star." Blame the idiots that watch this mess and all the other dysfunctional attention hungry subjects of reality shows. They think that if you are on TV,you're a "star." You can thank them for Snookie,the Real Housewives of Wherever,and Kate Gosslein. Get rid of these idiotic reality shows,no more of these "stars."
No sympathy! You play-You pay. Once you reproduce yourself, GROW UP. You are no longer first in your life. That helpless little child is. Provide her a safe & clean place to reside. Plus it sounds like the father isn't much better. Consider adoption! And give that sweet child a real chance in life.

The only problem with this is they play and all of us have to pay its a trend that has been going on for 30 years.Girls think its cool to do this.
Children love their parents. They don't know any better.
This 'mom' and I use the term loosely, should never have had custody of this child. The child should have been put up for adoption upon birth. Teenagers have no idea what they're getting into when they have a child.

Whatever happen to the days when people we saw on TV were going places? where do they get these people from, under the trailer parks.
