Teen Mom Jenelle Moving In With Friend, Leaving Son Jace Behind

Jenelle is leaving her mother Barbara’s house where she and Jace currently live — and she’s not taking Jace with her! Is this OK?

Teen Mom 2 star Jenelle Evans sure is determined to get away from her crazy mother Barbara. Just a month after Barbara called the cops on Jenelle, Jenelle is moving out to live with her friend Amber Lane. While it seems like a good idea for Jenelle to get away from Barbara — she will also be leaving her 2-year-old son Jace behind because Barbara has custody of him!

Jenelle revealed on her Facebook fan page that she and Amber were filling out lease applications on Oct. 4. “now me and amber are going to fill out apps for that house we were looking to rent and hopefully moving out THIS WEEK !!!!!” she wrote.

Well, Jenelle will definitely be moving. “Me and my friend amber got the house !!! :D” Jenelle excitedly tweeted on Oct. 5.

This is great news for Jenelle — but not for her son Jace who still lives with grandma Barbara. Jenelle already hardly spends any time with him — now it looks like she’s going to be seeing him even less since they won’t be living under the same roof.

HollyMoms — should Jenelle really be moving away from Jace?

It is good that Janelle and her mother are no longer under the same roof. Also, Janelle is not in a place in her life where she is stable enough, or has been sober long enough to have custody of Jace. So Janelle living close by, and hopefully being a very active participant in Jace’s life is the best of all situations right now. When Janelle has a career, has stayed out of trouble, more time sober under her belt, and has made the decision to make her child her number one priority, not men, drugs, or parties, then the custody situation should be revisited, but not one second sooner.

ugh people chill out whats it to do with any of you where she is living as loong as shes still seeing jace all the time and doing what she does at school stop the moaning n get on with youre own lives maybe ?

Well I for one am not happy about any of this since the crazy girl has moved down the street from me. Wish she and the rest of the family would move away from here. Can’t believe these people get paid to act like trash.

The house is 5 mins away from Jace, she see’s him everyday. The seperation from her mother is healthy, they only argue when they’re together, which is no good for Jace! Jenelle is making progress, i worry about her future though when she regains full custody.

This is all lies. Jenelle is renting the house with Amber, which is true. BUT, she sees Jace EVERYDAY and she moved not even 5 MINUTES from Barb’s house. Get your facts straight before you write lying articles such as this one. This site is as bad as Teen Mom Talk. Smh. And Jen, there’s worse things in life than grammar.

I think its funny that you act like shes moving SOOO far away from her son when she is still living on the same Island as him. And i bet if she was taking him with her you would write an article about how she shouldn’t because of some reason you pull from no where. Your site is a joke. No one is ever right unless you are kissing their butt, otherwise anything they do is put to vote so you can be assured your still a good person for writing trash.

She spends a lot of time with Jace, get your facts straight.

I think you people need to leave janelle alone.
Did you know drug addiction is a disease?
and i agree with Raratsak. Its better for janelle and Barbra to be apart.
Also hollywood life, get your facts right. Janelle isnt aloud to take Jace with him. Thats why hes not with her.

Oh, please. The new house is super close to her mom’s house. Just close enough and just far enough.

“Me and my friend…” HUH? OMG! With language skills like that she can look forward to working at Walmart or McDonald’s after her 15 minutes of fame are up.

It’s “my friend and I…”

This country is doomed. We’re a land of absolute idiots. I can’t count the number of times that even Hollywood Life writers have spelled the word LOSE as LOOSE.

OMG!

please my me & my friend is not thw worst I have seen form these illiterate teen moms.

Having Jenelle and Barbara under the same roof isn’t good for Jace, and while I think he should be able to see his mother everyday, seeing they way jenelle and barbara act towards each other isn’t good for him.
But just because Jenelle is moving out, who’s to say that she won’t be seeing Jace everyday?
Isn’t there any way Jenelle and Barbara could get some sort of custody situation sorted out where Jenelle can still stop by and see him whenever she wants, but also has to have him during set days and times in order to work on getting custody back?
Sort of like probation, she has to pass all her drug tests and do whatever else to work her way off probabtion… if that makes sense haha.
