OAK ISLAND, NORTH CAROLINA: 'Teen Mom' star Jenelle Evans reshared Gypsy Rose Blanchard's video where the convicted murderer described her Munchausen syndrome. She discussed "attention-seeking" behavior and how rare disorder often "affects the primary caregiver, often the mother."

Jenelle reshared the video, hinting that her mother might have the same condition. The 'Teen Mom' star referred to her mother hurting the primary caregiver, who is Jenelle in Barbara's case.

Jenelle wrote, "I'm telling you all, wait until my turn because this is the definition of my mother."

She explained, "Hospitalizations of all children growing up 24/7, verbal and physical abuse, using doctors and medications to sedate my siblings...there's a lot. And the pattern is STILL happening."

In another story, Jenelle mocked her mother and said, "Not afraid of you anymore, Barbara." 

People on the internet seem concerned by Jenelle's posts. One took the screenshot of her story to a Reddit thread and wrote, "Jenelle is on Barb again this morning with Gypsy crap."

A user slammed Jenelle and said, "Trying to capitalize and relate to Gypsy’s level of abuse is f****** gross. And demeaning to gypsy and her experience."

Another commented, "I wish Gypsy Rose would call this hillbilly b**** out."

One user asked, "Is she saying she would be justified in killing Barbara? Is that what she is getting at?"

One user got worried about Barbara's safety, saying, 'She needs an order of protection // RO asap."

Another concerned user wrote, "This comment should be higher. @jenelle don’t go out murdering your mom don’t have your psychopath husband do it either. You f****** suck btw."
