'Teen Mom 2' Fans Bash Jenelle Evans After Threats of Quitting
After the most recent episode of 'Teen Mom 2' showed a chaotic and troubled side of Jenelle Evans' [...]
Allegations
Some fans took to Twitter to say they thought Evans' and Eason's behavior towards their children and each other bordered on abuse.
Evans hasn't had a great track record with men, dealing with assault arrests, drug abuse and broken engagements prior to her marriage to Eason.
Monday's episode didn't instill much confidence in this new relationship either, fans said.
What exactly has Kaiser done in his short little life to deserve this sick abuse & neglect? He's an innocent child who doesn't deserve this

Jenelle Evans & David Eason are the most disgusting people - she only has one priority and that's David!

Jenelle needs to quit the show and quit having children. The look on Kai's face when he's cursed at for touching the camera is ?#TeenMom2

Skepticism
Other fans expressed doubt that the Teen Mom 2 personality would actually quit the show and give up being on MTV's payroll.
In 2015, Evans said on the radio show Jared and Katie in the Morning that she had made about half a million dollars from doing the MTV show.
"I wouldn't really say that (I've made a million dollars)," she said. "I would say a little bit over maybe half (a million)? I'm not really allowed to discuss it."
Jenelle can't quit @TeenMom - she & David would have to get a job. And we know that's not happening. #SaveKaiser #TeenMom2 https://t.co/LCO9qHtoop

Its no secret the show edits for ratings, but this is a cycle for Jenelle. Lie, lie, lie, threaten to quit, sign on again.

Jenelle will never quit. They have to pay for the LAAANNDDD, and we all know she and ULD won’t get real jobs. #TeenMom2

Boycott
Other fans said that if Evans remove herself from the show, they'll ask MTV to do it for her.
In light of actions many fans called disturbing or uncomfortable to watch in the latest episode, many took to social media to start a boycott hashtag, #SaveKaiser, referencing Evans' 3-year-old son.
Others tweeted at the local police department, asking them to step in.
#savekaiser #teenmom2 #boycotmtv @MTV take Jenelle off the show. Do what's right and REPORT HER.

@WilmingtonPD not sure if you can do anything but just watched child abuse happen on MTV tonight. Jenelle Evans needs to be investigated.
