The Lost Post regarding the issues of Tyler and Catelynn, reconstructed

In a series of unfortunate events last night I inadvertently erased the whole post here. I had wrapped up the current commotion with Tyler Baltierra of Tyler and Catelynn of 16 and Pregnant and of late, Teen Mom. Having relinquished their daughter, they have become spokesteens for Bethany Christian Services.

I don’t know when you fully cope with it” Catelynn adds “I think it goes on for your whole life.”
