I’m with you in that one parent on duty should be sufficient (such as they have now), but I hate to see Bristol on a tabloid cover or on Oprah with her mom.
Who knows if they have one parent on duty now. Sarah is running all over the country, and last I heard Todd was still away fishing or oil-fielding much of the time. For her resignation speech, he’d just flown in a few hours earlier from one of these gigs to be there for the media show. And this is what was going on while Bristol was getting pregnant. Sarah, while serving as governor and travelling to events out of state, didn’t even tell Todd for two weeks that the baby she was carrying had been diagnosed with Down Syndrome, because she was waiting for him to get back from the oil fields. Who the h*!! was watching their passel of children/teens?
