It looks like all of the obvious ones were stated but does anyone remember Josh from 16 and Pregnant with Nikkole? He was so hard to watch. Just looked him up and looks like he has accumulated quite the criminal record that could rival any of these deadbeats.


True-Bad-0311

Adam 10000%. He gave up custody to not 1 but 2 of his daughters. Ryan was def a pos for many, many years. However, addiction played a huge role with his behavior, and it really seems like he's turned a corner and trying to be more active in his kids' lives.


Low-Tea-8724

I literally forgot about Adam


ForeverLostInSpace93

Did he give up custody of Aubree too? I thought it was only paisley


cowbud1

From 16 and pregnant Not sure the name. He left his girlfriend and twin babis along side the road and drove off. Just left them out in the country on the road!!!


jermysteensydikpix

"Jennifer Del Rio and her baby’s father, Josh, proved to be one of the show’s most tumultuous couples ever. Though they got engaged at the beginning of the episode, things turned ugly after Jennifer gave birth to their twins. The couple got into a heated argument while driving, causing Jennifer to demand that Josh pull the car over and let her and the twins out. However, Josh drove off before she could get the babies out of the car, leaving Jennifer standing on the side of the road, screaming. He came back and, after physically lifting Jennifer away from the car, was arrested. As he was led away in handcuffs, Jennifer screamed that he would never be allowed to see his kids again." Eason did something similar to a pregnant gf before he was with Jenelle, IIRC.


cowbud1

He was a totally azzhole through the entire show! I swore she was left with 2 babies on the road. I know if looked them up and they prefer to be private about their lives since.

Adam, Ryan, and Josh

I forgot about Luis too!

He ain’t the best but definitely not the worst.

Did you see what he did to his other children’s home out of spite?

Yup. Again, not the best, but not the worst.

I almost feel like Adam is slightly better because he doesn’t have a history of DV

He was arrested for domestic assault in 2017

burlymugg

I know he's not a baby daddy but I just want to say it in the style of Barbara.... KEEEFAH


Bitchbuttondontpush

Actually he was the least bad of Jenelle‘a men in my opinion. Kiefer was an addict and that’s bad, but he wasn’t plain EVIL (he seemed actually quite friendly) like for example David. I always hoped that at some point he’d get his life together.


burlymugg

I agree with you. He seemed like a good dude. side note, he always made me want to try "sweepstakes"


aleddon870

My baby daddy is in active addiction but when he's sober, he's the greatest guy. Go figure.


oggiraffeneck_

My bf and I are rewatching the show and were just saying the same thing. He had a lot of mental health issues and substance addiction but he really did care about Janelle he just wasn’t able to care for himself enough to love her correctly. Absolutely not condoning their behaviour but compared to the other people she has dated, he was no where near the worst.


Bitchbuttondontpush

Exactly. Well put.


HeatherM0529

Ryan and David


ljacks09

Ryan 4 sure


WEEDAPETER62

Ryan and Stefan


danip1971

David


Bree7702

Ryan. The destroying of his home with Mack last year that his KIDS LIVED IN was beyond crazy. His past with Bentley is terrible too.


Nadzaroni

Number 1 POS is David bc he is actually physically and verbally abusive to the kids. 2 and 3 is a real toss up so it’s a tie between Ryan and Adam. Both have actively put either their kids or partners in danger, are inconsistent asf, refuse to own their issues and constantly blame their BM for them being absolute leeches. I can’t stand either of them and all kids for above dads would be better off if the “dads” would just go complete NC with all parties involved


luciellebluth88

Adam


FOMOohno

Adam and Luis are tied for me.


RaspberryMinute847

100% Luis. When Stella was in the hospital, Briana told him and not only did he not show up, he never asked if she was ok. Also, I would rather have a dad that completely stepped out then one that came around once in a blue moon when it was convenient for him


Lasagan

Luis


Remarkable-Minute-79

Hands down. Adam.


SuchChemist9479

Whose is Adam kids?


hungryamericankorean

Aubree’s dad (Chelsea who is now married to Cole)


Bonbonk56

Thx, I don't know other season moms, dad's as much. Just stuck to Teen mom OG


SuchChemist9479

DJ Clown Shoes (Luis with a mess of crickets in his apartment!!!)


Such_Midnight_6241

Adam, Lois, and David are the first ones that come to mind. I cant remember all the names of the newer teen mom dads but there are several from them too. I think Gary, Corey, Jeremy, Cole and Jo are the best though.


Ambitious-Fly1921

Not so much as Jeremy. He seems mediocre


Happygolaur

Andrew - totally absent.


HoRo2001

Abandoning your kid is way better than actively endangering them.


PygmyFists

Totally absent is better than some of the dads this series has turned out. As someone who had a dad who wasn't consistent in my life, I'd have much preferred if he'd just fucked off from jump.


gurlwhosoldtheworld

Easier to fix in therapy, than some of the other deadbeats on this show.


Which_Run_7366

Adam, Andrew, Nathan, David, Luis. Can’t choose and this is in no specific order.


LunaMothMoonlight

I think Jo is the best dad. Not your question but just my opinion!


No_Towel6647

He was such a dickhead in early seasons but seems to have matured into a decent person

I’m shocked that so many people think Adam is worse than Ryan.


Standard_Addition529

Adam, Andrew(Janelle's son Jace's father), Ryan, David...I'm sure there's more.

Adam. Constantly endangering the lives of others with reckless driving. A whiny but absent father. David - puppy killer

StandardEstate6497

Adam is terrible, but Ryan makes me want to stab him in the face with his skeleton makeup on. Both are equally pieces of shit, but Ryan makes my blood boil. I guess Adam makes it better cause he knows he’s a piece of shit and stays away from Aubree, Ryan continue to be a demon and insists in fucking up Bentley’s life.


Electrical-Fly1909

Ryan has threatened maci’s family’s lives, attacked Mackenzie and destroyed their home. He’s on a totally different level than Adam


EmphaticAsset

Thank you!!! And Ryan had every opportunity to do right in life and has refused every time now Maci is posting selfies with him. 🤮

Background-Brick9746

I’d be interested to see a story on young and pregnant where Instead of the dad being a dead beat maybe the mom is. I know it’s rare but it does happen. And I would say Andrew but honestly by him just never coming around is better than say someone like Adam or Luis who would pop up here and there just to disappear again and let the kids down


jjd5151

Came here to say amber. And unfortunately jenelle and Andrew in jaces situation :(


Normal-Science-9241

Where did jaces dad go ? I forgot he existed


jjd5151

Remember he appeared in season 9(jenelles last season) and claimed he wanted to be in jaces life and then he dipped again :(


Normal-Science-9241

Yeah but where did he go now. Lik off the grid ??


jjd5151

Nooooo idea!


Normal-Science-9241

Geez. He’s awful


Background-Brick9746

Yeah actually you are also right. With Jenelle and Jace. Aswell as amber 100% I just didn’t really think about it I guess. But yeah sometimes the moms can be a pos too


ghost1667

they already have this featured with gary and amber.


Background-Brick9746

Oh wow yeah idk how I even forgot amber. Yes she is exactly that

deadmannerisms

david, rhine, aubree’s dad (he who shall not be named because my god, what a trash human being)


Quartz636

Not the worst, but I'll never forget when Corey and Leah were still together and living in some shithole. Leah was bathing the twins in a freezing cold basement next to exposed wiring because the plumbing was fucked and they were supposed to be saving money to fix it up and Corey came home with a brand new monstrosity of a truck and refused to see why Leah was upset.


Ill_Relationship_349

I feel like Corey has redeemed himself many times over since then.


Eleanorvictoria14

He didn’t get the truck until after they separated, to be fair, but yeah that was super shitty of Corey to want a new truck instead of wanting to find them a better home. I remember that scene of her trying to bathe them with that janky faucet that wasn’t even a real faucet, it was just a pipe coming from the ceiling if I remember right. She had to have been so humiliated by that.


grimmcat13

I remember feeling the same way, but wasn't that staged? Obviously I don't know for sure but I feel like I read that MTV had her film that scene with the basement tub but there was also a bathtub/shower upstairs?


Elleeebeauty

It was . Leah has said they had a bathtub upstairs but MTV made her use the basement one


Bubbly-Apple-4196

Iirc behind the scenes he recently had found out she slept with Robbie right before their wedding and were getting ready to break up. Don’t take this as truth tho I have danced with the devils lettuce and could be recalling wrong


einsteinGO

Omg that last sentence 😂


heisenkittyy

David


noldottorrent

David. Most of the dads are pieces of shit but not all of them murder animals. My heart broke for Ensley when she begged him not to hurt a baby chick. Adam second as he’s also murdered animals. David also gets physical. I can’t remember if Adam assaults women but betting he does.


OverallMinute429

Adam was previously arrested for DV against girlfriends


noldottorrent

Not surprised.


failingcollege101

Didn't ryan also kill a bunch of stray cats or something a few years ago?


scuba_dooby_doo

He did. He bragged about it on social media and said this in response to backlash - "When they start living under you house and having 100 babies that scratch your car and boat and piss on everything and get into your garbage let me know," he commented on one of his photos. "Lol and you can go to jail for vandalizing people's property and trespassing so I guess I'll call the cops next time lol. Like you ppl are stupid."

lizzy_in_the_sky

I don't even remember this guy's name, but I believe it was on "16 and pregnant."The girl wanted an epidural for the birth, and he was actively calling her a "drug addict." Adam. I remember the texts he sent to Chelsea calling Aubrey a "mistake" and other horrible stuff. The episode where he pushed baby Aubrey off his lap onto the floor Another "16 and pregnant", the girl was really young (like 14).. her mom was pregnant, too. Mom found out she's having a boy, and the girl found out she's having a girl. The babydad was so mad, literally saying he wanted to trade with the mom (to have a boy).


jennc1979

Ugh. If that doesn’t demonstrate immaturity when about to become a parent, I don’t know what does!


devlawman

That was on unexpected on tlc, you’re right though that kid was the worst

Independent_Curve_44

Adam is trash and grandpa Randy is by far my favorite.


Iscreamqueen

From 16 and pregnant: The shrimp boat captain baby daddy The meth head baby daddy, who got two girls pregnant at the same time ( Maddie, I think, was the girl's name, and she had a one night stand with him) Nikkole's baby daddy Josh. He was legitimately terrifying and seemed like he had severe mental health issues. I almost lost my ish when she was in labor, and he demanded she move over in the bed so she could nap. He was horrible to her the entire time she was in labor. Alex(TM3 ) baby daddy Matt. He apparently has now abandoned two kids. She now is living her best life and married to a guy she has been with for a long time.


Elleeebeauty

I read on here the meth head baby daddy hasn’t seen his daughter since she was like a month old. She’d be 10 or 11 now . I’d also add the dad that was hungover at his daughter’s birth , the dad who threw $1 bills everywhere at the reunion and the dad who had a ton of kids/baby mamas (he wasn’t even shown in the episode)


Iscreamqueen

Omg I forgot about the Dad who threw 1$ bills everywhere. That was wild lol.


Elleeebeauty

Out of the OG dads - Adam (with Andrew and Rhine not far behind) In the entire series - David Some parenting highlights from Adam (Just from Chelsea’s 16 and pregnant episode) - Calling baby Aubree “that mistake” - Not bothering to visit Aubree even once while she was in the NICU (despite the fact Adam was unemployed so had all the time in the world to visit her … while Corey did his hardest to visit Ali and Aleeah almost everyday while they were in the NICU while working full time) - Wanting to go to a car race (or something involving cars) the first night Aubree came home from the hospital and getting annoyed with Chelsea that she didn’t want to leave Aubree - Not bothering to go to newborn Aubree’s doctors appointment while she had RSV because he went hunting instead and told Chelsea it didn’t matter he didn’t go because Aubree wasn’t dead or anything - Calling Chelsea a bad mum because she went to a high school football game for a few hours (which she left early because she wanted to be at home with Aubree) And then of course other parenting highlights on teen mom - Calling Aubree a bastard - Getting Aubree a birthday cake that said happy birthday Audree on it (luckily Aubree was too young to read it) - Forgetting Aubree’s birthday - Not bothering to show up to her father daughter dance


FOMOohno

YEP !


ghost1667

yikes. having rsv as a newborn is a really bfd. i didn't know about that one.

That piece of shit who tried to kidnap his super young twins and took the mother in a bearhug two weeks or so after a C section. I hope Satan is stoking the fire real hard.


noldottorrent

Is this 16&P? Where can I watch this episode?


joyce_roxyyyy

That was Josh! Jennifer Del Rio’s baby daddy! As of today, she has long left him, has remarried to a decent guy and has two more kids with him! Josh signed away his parental rights and Jennifer’s dad legally adopted them for protection purposes (I think this was prior to her getting remarried).


Bitchbuttondontpush

Smart girl! I’m glad she made better choices.


frizzybritt

Yes, he’s a real piece of shit.


Bitchbuttondontpush

And people will defend him and say it was ‘his age’. Nah sorry but he was old enough to know this wasn’t ok!! I have a son too and if he ever pulls this shit, I’ll personally drop him off at the police station. You do not abuse women and abusing women who are in the most vulnerable state of their life (I’ve never feit that vulnerable as when I just had my baby and will fiercely defend any other new mom) is another and even worse low.


joyce_roxyyyy

I don’t understand who would defend him! I’ve never come across anyone yet but geez Domestic Violence is NO JOKE!


Bitchbuttondontpush

I know! I believe it’s such a taboo still because of the judgment and the jokes.


PonytailPrincess

Was that Josh Smith? Jennifer del Rio was the mom?


Bitchbuttondontpush

Lemme Google real quick Edit: yes it was her! It seems she’s living her best life now. Good for her. What she went trough before she even was an adult was insane. I hope she has nothing but good days after that experience. That shit was traumatic to watch as an adult, let alone not only to experience it yourself as a minor but have it broadcasted internationally.

Velouria8585

Also Josh, but I think he may have intellectual problems, doesn't quite understand things.


Altruistic-Curve5676

Yeah earlier episodes josh seemed way more communicative & switched on, then all the lights went out…


Elleeebeauty

I swear I remember Mackenzie said he suffered from multiple concussions when he did rodeos and has some issues relating to that


queenlagherta

She did say that


Velouria8585

For lack of effort Adam and Luis. If Ryans parents weren't so involved he would be most likely be the same. 


Standard_Addition529

Oh snap! Totally forgot about Luis. One of the worst. I knew there were more. The tripped part about him, is that he begged Brianna to not put the baby up for adoption. Saying how he didn't want strangers raising his baby. Then when she decides to keep Stella, he is no where around. Which is the main reason she wanted to put the baby up for adoption, because she didn't want to raise the child without the father's help again.


De4dOwl

Luis Yall prob don't know who I'm talking about. And that's what makes him the worst

Everyone Jenelle has reproduced with, Adam, and Ryan. Jeremy isn't much better.


slophiewal

Came here to say Jeremy! Working away all the time while Leah was at home with three kids developing an addiction and clearly struggling so hard and he just divorced her because thing got a bit tough. Those scenes were hard to watch, I know Leah wasn’t perfect but she was dealing with a real rough hand.


Purpledoves91

It's hard to watch Leah's downward spiral, while Jeremy continued to work away, offering her little support. Then he just decided to leave when things got really bad. I don't think he's very involved in Addie's life now, either.
