The truth comes out!
Testing Positive
Although Jenelle’s marijuana use clearly doesn’t phase her at all, it has worried members of her family. Nathan Griffith’s mother and Kaiser’s grandma Doris Griffith has recently been in custody battles with Jenelle over her grandson. In the papers, she brings up Jenelle’s marijuana use.
“DSS became involved due to Ensley testing positive for marijuana and opened an investigation,” court documents filed by Doris Griffith read, according to Radar Online Upon information and belief, both Plaintiff and David had positive drug screens for marijuana.”
Doris claimed that Jenelle “has an extensive history of drug use,” that returned while she was pregnant with Ensley. She continued, “Upon the birth of Ensley, the newborn tested positive for marijuana.”
Nathan’s mother Doris eventually dropped the suit against Jenelle, likely because of financial reasons. But in the premiere of Teen Mom 2, it was clear that she’s not going down without a fight.
Happy Ending
“After Nathan’s domestic violence arrest, we changed his visits with Kaiser to be supervised by his mom,” Jenelle explained in a voice over. “Usually I get along with her, but I just got some really messed up news from my lawyer.”
In the clip, she tells David: “While you were picking up Kaiser and Maryssa just now, I was just upset… Nathan’s mom tried to file emergency custody on me to take Kaiser away immediately. She said she was worried about his bruises that he comes over to her house with… But I told my lawyer, ‘Kaiser actually comes home with finger bruises on his butt from being spanked.’”
“She said I left him outside in the hot, hot heat?” Jenelle added, seeming shocked by the accusations. David said, “That’s just crazy — Kaiser won’t even go outside by himself.”
Jenelle vented about Doris filing for custody instead of asking her to see Kaiser. “Just tell me when you want to see him, you can see him!” she said. “Don’t go behind my back and file emergency custody. Cause now you just opened up a big can of worms… Now I look at you like I look like my mom.”
“I’m sick of us trying to have our happy ending and everyone’s trying to f*ck it up,” Jenelle added, on the verge of tears. However, her baby daddy Nathan saw things very differently.
Huge Accusations
“My mom saw a lawyer and she decided to take out emergency custody,” Nathan Griffith explained to his friends in another scene. “I constantly see bruises. He told me David punched him one time. There’s just a lot of things my son comes back and tells me, and I see how he acts.”
“When he gets in trouble, you know the first thing he does?” Nathan pantomimes Kaiser covering his butt. “If you saw that, how would you feel? Like he’s being hit!” Nathan explains that he would file for custody himself if it weren’t for the pending charges against him.
However, Nathan’s friend says he thinks if David wasn’t in the picture, these concerns wouldn’t exist. “He does seem like he has tendencies to be a violent person,” Nathan agrees.
