Family Dispute: Teen Mom OG's Maci Is Clashing With Ryan's Parents

Maci was at odds with Ryan’s parents on this week’s Teen Mom OG -- all because they disagreed about where Bentley should attend middle school in two years. For their part, Jen and Larry were pushing for private school, yet Maci felt there was no need to remove him from his public school environment.


The Edwards argued that since Ryan had the funds to send Bentley to private school, it was a no-brainer -- and that Ryan was “adamant” about his son getting a private school education. Plus, they reasoned, Bentley could have the ability to play baseball in private school, getting a leg up before high school.


Maci, although, felt like public school was a higher class of fit for him, especially given his unusual upbringing.


“Part of me thinks that just from the fact that Bentley had grown up in a uncommon family member situation and on TV, public school is better for him,” she instructed her spouse. “He gets exposed to a lot of different walks of life. I don’t want Bentley to think he is on a pedestal -- or belongs on one -- being on TV.”


Taylor, meanwhile, didn’t think Benny totally understood what private school meant behind the materialistic aspect and didn’t wish to give him special treatment. Plus, he wondered, if Bentley went to private school for $25,000 or more each year, would they have to send his siblings Jayde and Maverick there one day too?


Although more importantly, Maci was mad that Jen and Larry broached the subject with the fourth grader without even talking to her about it first -- and then made him believe he may go if he so desired.


“He just expects that as soon as he wants something at Jen and Larry’s, he gets it,” she said.


The schooling decision is ultimately Maci’s to create since she has full custody, yet will she change her mind? Or will this disagreement spark more issues between Maci and Jen and Larry -- and, ultimately, Ryan? Tell us your thoughts, then keep tuning in to Teen Mom OG Mondays at 9/8c.
