Teen Moms Maci Bookout Slammed for Putting 11YearOld Son on Strict Diet

Teen Mom’s Maci Bookout was slammed for putting her 11-year-old son on a “strict diet.” Maci is usually a fan favorite but this week she found herself in hot water.

Maci has been a staple on the show since it first aired back in 2009. Since then she has moved on and married her husband Taylor while also becoming involved in her community. She is also a bestselling author who still lives in Tennessee.

The Teen Mom OG star has received some backlash after Tuesday’s all-new episode which showed Maci implementing a strict diet on her eldest son, Bentley. Bentley is the son of Maci and her ex, Ryan Edwards, and currently is finding his passion for the sport of wrestling. The episode showed Maci signing her son up for private wrestling classes which according to her have been “great” for him. But fans were quick to judge that the sports mom may be taking her son’s passion too seriously.

The uproar began when Maci seemed to become upset that her son wanted to eat chicken telling the cameras that he is looking to cut weight as he only weighs 74 pounds. The pre-teen was participating in a lot of workouts and drinking water to keep the healthy lean muscle. Bentley piped up to explain that he has only been eating 1,000 calories a day. Bentley’s father, Ryan expressed concern later in the episode telling producers he was worried his son would be stunned in his growth. While the viewer’s main concern was the fact that a strict diet at a young age could cause an eating disorder. Fans took to social media to condemn the reality star for her bad parenting. Many were disgusted that she was allowing the 11-year-old to take his diet to this type of extreme.

After MTV aired the episode, Maci took to her own Instagram to explain that Bentley had asked if he could wrestle in the 70-pound class instead of 75. He tried to make weight by eating lots of salads and grilled chicken, deciding he did not like it. So according to the MTV personality, he went back to the 75-pound class. She stressed that she never allowed him to cut weight in an unhealthy way and would never. Maci made it clear that she had knowledge about the sport and was determined to support her son in the healthiest and most positive way possible. While fans continued to hate, Maci left her statement as is and presumably going back to being a hardworking mother and is trying to leave nasty comments behind her.
