'Dumb as a friggin' rock': 'Teen Mom' star Jenelle Evans trolled for homeschooling stepdaughter
There’s new Teen Mom drama brewing — and for a change, it doesn’t involve new cast member Bristol Palin.
Teen Mom 2 stars Kailyn Lowry and Jenelle Evans are known for butting heads, so when it was revealed that Evans plans to homeschool her 11-year-old stepdaughter, Lowry couldn’t resist weighing in.
Evans, who now uses her married name, Jenelle Eason, announced the homeschooling news in a tweet calling out Lowry’s podcast. This prompted her own estranged mother, Barbara Evans, to call her “dumb as a friggin’ rock,” while Lowry made fun of Evans’s education.
Is her stepdaughter sitting “a crossed” from her at the table? https://t.co/ORkHGugZlt

It wasn’t long before viewers of the MTV show piled on in Lowry’s comments. Some referenced Evans’s recent road-rage incident, in which she pulled a gun on another driver.
But haven't you saw how much gooder English she speaks? It doesn't take a lot to saw how she's totally qualified to be a teacher!

This is so scary. David has isolated Jenelle and now they're isolating Maryssa from normal social interaction? This poor young woman is going to be stuck on the junkyard swamp 24/7 and receiving a halfass education from a junkie who barely made it out of high school!!!

Dear God. She doesn’t even know when to use “seen” or “saw.”

Lowry’s teasing isn’t the only drama in Evans’s life at the moment. The reality star has also been defending husband David Eason for sharing homophobic messages on social media.
“He doesn’t hate those people,” Evans said during the Teen Mom 2 reunion special, in reference to the LGBTQ community. “He just doesn’t want his kids to grow up and be that way.”
Just two days later, however, Eason shared a “straight pride” post on Instagram.
