When it comes to family, people often expect and hope that their siblings will have their back, no matter what. However, some people are lucky enough to have healthy sibling bonds, where one looks out for the other. And while the Slaton sisters certainly have a close bond with their sisters Misty, Amanda and brother Chris, it seems as though Tammy is now hell-bent on pushing those relationships to the limit.

The entire family decided to go on a long-overdue vacation, and while everyone was thoroughly excited, Tammy proved to be a real wet blanket the whole time. However, the rest of the family was still focused on involving her in activities. Which, unfortunately, did not go as planned.

After the family took a fun group photo and went to an amusement park, sans Tammy, they decided to ask her to join them for dinner. Tammy agreed and they even got her an electric wheelchair to navigate around so that no one would have to push her and she could be more independent. While the family was thrilled to have the wheelchair at their disposal, Tammy was not too excited about it, citing that it was more work for them and she'd rather be on the manual one. Fans were exasperated by this.

"Tammy has an attitude because the electric wheelchair makes it easier on her family. How freaking selfish can one person be?!!! #1000lbsisters" tweeted a fan. "Tammy has the audacity to complain about not being pushed around when she has to ride in an electric wheelchair. What a dumbass. #1000lbsisters" added another. "Did she just say it's a hassle for them to lift her legs to help her when she can't lift them on her own? #1000lbSisters" said a fan. She's actually complaining about them getting the motorized wheelchair. "Girl Michael ain't gonna be able to pick up his kids cuz he gon blow his back out messing with you. She always got something to complain about #1000lbsisters" wrote a user. "Tammy has a lot of nerve being suspicious about whether they got the electric wheelchair for her or to alleviate the burden on them? Who cares? Obviously she is a burden, but has the nerve to be mad that they want to make it easier on all of them? #1000LbSisters" argued a fan. "i won't be surprised if tammy actually does become ward of the state, because she cannot live on her own and she cannot keep relying on her family -- they deserve to have a life of their own #1000lbSisters" concluded another. 



 



 



 



 



 



 

Despite this, the evening was going seemingly well. All until Amanda showed the group the photo that they had taken earlier. Tammy took this as an opportunity to throw yet another tantrum, as she was not a part of it. However, Amanda argued that it was her own doing as she had been standoffish since they reached their vacation destination. To make matters worse, the family suspected that Tammy was texting her ex-boyfriend, BBW King Phillip, one that she had already gotten a restraining order against. 


What do you think? Is Tammy ruining her own life at this point? Sound off below.
