Teen Mother Jenelle Evans says damaged bond with mother Barbara will NEVER be repaired amid custody struggle over her son Jace, 11

ADOLESCENT mom Jenelle Evans tells The Sun that her relationship with her mom Barbara over custody of her son Jace disrupted their relationship beyond repair.

In an exclusive interview, former MTV star The Sun said that the ongoing legal battle over her eldest son, whom fans saw growing up on the show, ruined any chance of reconciliation with her mother.

Former Teen Mom 2-Star Star tells The Sun, “Her house with Jace has been pretty tough the last two years.

“There hasn’t been much of a change. We agreed that Jace would live with me and she took her word back like a week later.”

Now she says she’s facing the situation in court: “I’m in a custody battle with my mother.”

Jenelle says back of Jace, “I think it’s just time.”

The 29-year-old mother of three says Jace had behavior problems while living with Barbara.

As previously reported by The Sun, Jace is believed to have started fires in Barbara’s care.

According to Jenelle in the court records, Jace is also believed to have burned Barbara’s carpet when he was angry.

When asked about the incidents, Jenelle said, “I can’t really say much about the pending lawsuit. I’ll say Jace didn’t behave so well with my mother, and that’s one of my big ones.” Concern right now, his behavior is just bad.

“I don’t know if it’s because he’s getting older and becoming a rebellious teenager, but I know everything is fine in my house. He loves it here, and he loves spending time and time with his siblings to spend as a family. “

Jenelle adds, “I think it is time to come here with the conflict that is going on with my mother. It is unnecessary for them to be together all day.”

Jenelle, who is starting a podcast in the coming weeks, says her life is more stable now that she and her husband get along better.

She and her husband David Eason separated briefly in 2020.

Jenelle says, “Jace loves going out on the boat with David and David teaches him hunting and fishing. He’s with a man, has a man’s perspective, and isn’t always with my mother.

Jenelle adds: “Because his father is not there, it’s a good thing he has some kind of father figure.”

It’s also difficult at Barbara’s home with Jace’s schooling, she says.

“She also finds it difficult to help a lot in school because she doesn’t get the new school supplies that she teaches.”

As they fight in court, Jenelle says they have a set schedule of visits.

“Right now I get it every other weekend and two months outside of summer and whenever it gets spring break I get it. The only time he’s with my mom is when he’s at school.”

While she and Barbara share custody, Jenelle says, they don’t talk to each other.

Jenelle adds, “We’ll probably never fix our relationship, but if I get custody I’ll keep giving Jace a relationship with her.”

“They’ve been together for so long and I don’t want to be petty and petty about Jace just because I have something against my mother.”

Things between her and Barbara heated up in January this year when Jenelle filed an urgency motion for custody of her 11-year-old son.

In North Carolina court files first received by The Sun, Jenelle applied for sole custody of her troubled son on Jan. 28, 2021.

Barbara currently has primary physical and legal custody of Jace as Jenelle visits him every other weekend after signing custody of her son with her mother in June 2010.

According to the custody petition, Jenelle alleged that there had been “a material change in circumstances affecting the minor child’s welfare” that warranted a change to the custody contract.

The former 2-star Teen Mom star claimed that Jace was “at risk of physical harm” in the care of his grandmother, which is why she is seeking emergency custody.

Jenelle claimed Jace had “progressively worse behavior problems that result in him being physically aggressive, out of control, and insecure”.

The YouTuber claimed that Barbara told her that she “couldn’t control the underage child’s behavior.”

Barbara was instructed “multiple times” by his health care provider to call a crisis hotline or go to the emergency room when Jace’s “aggression escalated,” claimed Jenelle in the file.

Jenelle noticed an alleged incident on December 19, 2020 in which Jace and Barbara “argued all day”.

The court records state: “The underage child was physically assaulted [Barbara] cause injuries twice [Barbara.] The little child also burned the carpet because he was angry [Barbara].

“The underage child has had fires in the home of [Barbara]. ”

Jenelle alleged that her mother “did not contact the crisis line or seek treatment or professional help for the underage child during this incident.”

The owner of JE Cosmetics claimed that Barbara asked Jenelle for help with Jace.

Jenelle claimed she picked up Jace on December 20, 2020, mainly with the consent of Barbara.

Jenelle, who is also the mother of Kaiser, 6, with ex-fiancés Nathan Griffith and Ensley, 4, along with husband David Eason, said Jace’s behavior “is vastly improving” in her care and that they “don’t struggle with conflict or Aggressions”.

She said her son stayed with her until January 18, 2021, when Barbara allegedly resigned from her new custody contract so Jace could live with her full time and requested that he be returned to her home.

The submission went on: “[Barbara] cannot manage the minor child’s behavior without help from [Jenelle] and the conflict in [Barbara’s home] has led to domestic violence between [Barbara] and [Jace].

“It is not safe or healthy for the minor child to remain in the care of [Barbara] how [Barbara] does not properly treat the minor child’s mental health or manage their behavior. “

Jenelle said she was “fit and right” to have sole legal and physical custody of Jace, while Barbara was “not fit and right to have the care, custody and control of Jace” [Jace] due to their inability to properly care for the child and ensure that they have a safe home environment. “

She then raised Jace’s father, Andrew Lewis, claiming he “abandoned” her son and “kept no contact with him” [her] or the child since the child was one year old. “

She requested a visit between Barbara and Jace, “to be therapeutic in nature until they are able to adequately manage the conflict in their relationship”.

Jenelle asked the court to issue an emergency detention order so that Jace can be taken into her custody “immediately”.

Jenelle signed custody of Jace in 2010 when her mother applied for custody of the then toddler.

At the time, Jenelle had been arrested for possession of marijuana and for breaking and entering.

She did a marijuana rehab while on probation for the bust.

In May 2019, the children, along with David’s teenage daughter Maryssa from a previous marriage, were taken out of their care by child protection services.

This came after David admitted to shooting and killing the family dog ​​Nugget for pinching their daughter Ensley.

After a series of court hearings, the children were returned in July 2019.
