'Mama June: Family Crisis' is headed toward an explosive finale. Not that it wasn't already churning any less drama, but Season 4 is sure to end with a lot of theatrics. Tonight, June Edith 'Mama June' Shannon will be seen leaving a parking lot hand-in-hand with boyfriend Geno Doak with a suitcase in tow. While the production unit tries to stop her, she quickly asks the driver of a car to get her to the airport. 

Is she abandoning her kids? Too soon to assume but one wouldn't put anything past Mama June given her track record. Fans have regularly called questioned June and her role as a mother. She was heavily criticized for putting her loved ones' lives in danger by indulging in substance abuse. A couple of weeks ago, Lauryn Michelle 'Pumpkin' Efird trusted her mother when she opened about her troubles and struggle with drugs but it all turned out to be a ruse. Even though Mama June readily agreed to be enrolled in a rehabilitation center, she was quick to leave the facility. Even when she shared details from her drug abuse, she seemed unapologetic and was not very willing to lay it all out. 

In the previous episode, Pumpkin warned that Mama June will be dropping a bomb in the finale, which means it's going to get serious. We see Alana Frances 'Honey Boo Boo' Thompson inconsolably crying and it's only indicative of a personal tragedy. Honey Boo Boo has expressed quite a few times about wanting to stay with Mama June but that didn't happen and looks like it's still a far cry. 

In a nutshell, it's not looking good for Mama June and her kids this season. 

Meanwhile, fans have said how June needs to put her kids first and that she will never get rid of drugs till the time Geno is in her life. Ultimately, it's June who needs to make the call. "Geno is a jerk and idiot. He doesn’t care about June he only cares about drugs!!! #FromNotToHot #MamaJune," a fan commented, while another shared: "#mamajune aint shit how do you choose a man over your family , men come and go he just want the money geno doesnt love you ! Your family does choose them."

"It's sad but #MamaJune doesn't seem ready to admit her problem, or really get help yet. She probably won't either as long as damn Geno is around both Geno and Jennifer just need to disappear from this show & their lives," a user tweeted.
