Billy Robbins


I think I saw in the previews looks like that Billy Robbins kid and his mother from Half Ton Teen are gonna have an episode this season. It looked like he was the one falling off of a golf cart or something? And I think it showed Dr. N yelling at the mom that she's killing him.. He's been on like 3 obesity documentaries at this point throughout the years.. It's so sad if he's lost all his progress and gotten more obese and his mom is still enabling!

It really is a sad state of affairs. It's such a complex problem. :(

It's very sad! The only way to help him really is to separate him from his mom, but he probably can't even function without her.. she even admitted that she overtly babies him because she has a son who died before him, they both need to get therapy or she'll lose another son :[

I agree. There are so many factors at play in these situations. Therapy and education from patient and understanding providers is needed. The willingness to receive such care is essential. Such a vicious cycle.
