RARELY SEEN TEEN
Back in August, Jenelle posted a rare photo of her stepdaughter celebrating the big 1-5.
David lit candles on a pink birthday cake which had frosted writing: “Go Shorty, It’s Your Birthday” on the top.
Maryssa smiled up at her dad as his heavily tattooed hand lit the candles.
Maryssa has asked Jenelle to not take photos of her for social media in the past.
Jenelle has not always abided by her step-daughter’s wishes – the ex-reality star recently recorded clips of their day at the Wilderness Run Alpine Coaster in Banner Elk, North Carolina, near where the family lives.
In the video, Jace, Kaiser, and Ensley boarded the rollercoaster for a ride and Maryssa also tagged along.
Fans noticed the teen’s discomfort being photographed and took to an online forum to discuss the situation.
“Marissa is looking at her like ‘why is this h** recording me?'” one roared.
A second fan added: “So Jenelle doesn’t post Maryssa on social media when she’s at home because she wants privacy? But that privacy doesn’t extend to vacation?”
‘DANGEROUS’
Earlier this month, Jenelle posted a TikTok of Maryssa learning to drive.
However, fans were concerned about having the whole family minus Jace in the van with the teen.
One fan commented: “It seems weird to me having such an inexperienced driver drive the entire family in case something goes wrong.”
A second stressed: “I couldn’t imagine putting small children in a car with a teenager behind the wheel! That sounds so scary on every level!”
Another said: “The anxiety this gives me. You don’t teach a kid to drive with other kids in the car. That’s an accident waiting to happen.”
Yet a fourth expressed a few worries: “I mean, I couldn’t imagine keeping myself focused on an entirely new skill with kids in the back seat chattering away and whatnot. It’s stressful enough on its own trying to pay attention to everything around you!”
