posters IS required at all times. Jump in and play, and you'll soon find out

Ebert once said, "If you disagree with something I write, tell me so, argue

I think if she would put some of that spunkiness in the right place she could really go places.A little class can go a long way.There is a difference between speaking your mind and being mouthy.She doesn't know that yet.I hope she learns.

I'd love to see Antonia's face if IV said she had to sit in the corner or even go to her room for a while for being disrespectful. She does have a quite a mouth on her. It's not at all attractive and to think she is a Catholic schoolgirl like someone else said.

I think IV likes someone to stand up to her. Antioia clearly has never heard of the all powerful all knowing IV. This makes me giggle.

Although I would not want Antonia as a friend and I would be ashamed of my parenting if she were my daughter, there is something kind of refreshing about her comments and attitude. There are times when the other women are discussing their tools and how they need to set forth their intentions that Antonia is nearly rolling her eyes. It would be hilarious to have a bubble over her head with what she is thinking. She makes me laugh out loud.

I would love to see her reaction to IV's voodoo priestess mojo and definitly to one of the swamp activities. I wonder if IV will have the guts to go up against Antonia's attitude and try one of the Survivor style activities with her. If she didn't like the credit card bracelet, which has been missing lately, I'm not seeing her going along with getting in the swamp like Lisa 2.

Thats funny because I dont think she is rude, but thats probably because Im the same way, basically we speak before we think. And most of what comes out of our mouths comes out the wrong way. People tell me its because im from the east (NJ) and now im in Texas. So I sure I come off sounding loud and harsh at times, Thats how antonio sounds to me, but I take it a different way.

I just see it as her being honest and speaking her mind. If she hides what she is truly feeling, she won't get far in the house. How many times do the LC's have to drill into all the other women until they get the truth out?

She is 24 years old and acts like 12. She is just very spoiled and immature but I find her to be very entertaining and I like her. She is the first to say what she thinks to Iylanda and I love to watch her. She has a lot of growig up to do but in the mean time we can have a good laugh.

I perceive it as being very rude and disrespectful. The LC’s take time out of there life to help these women and they turn around and don’t do the exercise (Sommer, Kim and many others), whine (Lisa 1), or straight up disrespect them (Antonia). Then they need to leave and make room for people who really need help and aren’t brats about it.

I was glad to see that they didn't round up enough actors to get her the $500 and only paid to get her half the money she needed. She did such a lousy job on that exercise she didn't deserve to be rewarded with success in getting extras to come on and pretend to pay for being there. Once again though, she doesn't seem to think she's in the wrong. I thought she was hilarious with Dr. Stan telling him off.

Antonia breathes some life into that house. I think the producers are sick of all the woe is me! I bet Iyanla is having a ball with her. I personally enjoy watching her because she actually says stuff that I know I would probably be thinking and not gutsy enough to say. She doesn't bend down and hang on all of the life coach's words. She'll actually have an honest response to some of the whacked out assignments they propose. If she had it all together, she wouldn't be in that house!

Is it Antonia's fault that she's being given the assignments that she's been given? Sure SO should help her find a steady means of paying down her debt, and that may be what they're trying to do in a round about way...I don't know. I think it's important for her to understand WHY she got into debt in the first place. She also needs to understand MONEY period. If Antonia doesn't get it, she can continue adding to her debt and with her just being 24, she can really do some serious damage, THEN turn around and go bankrupt. If she does get it, it can change her life for real. To her credit she's not talking bankruptcy. So at least at this stage she's taking responsibility and IMO that's a good thing.

I, for one, LOVE Antonia's spunk! To me, she's the realest person in the house. I love the fact that she's not totally enamored with the LCs. And I really love the fact that she sees herself as on their level. Sometimes Iyanla doesn't know what to do with her because she is so used to dealing with sheep that want simply to be herded. Antonia may be spoiled, financially bankrupt, and even some what immature, but she is no one's sheep, and she has got my respect for that. Besides, where is it written that you can't express a contrary opinion in that house? I know Rhonda and Iyanla aren't really used to it, but that's just because Antonia is just the first person who really does...and it makes me want to gag to even type this...but Antonia is the embodiment of standing in her truth. She knows who she is and despite her presence in the SO house, she seems to be pretty Ok with it. I think if Antonia learned some financial management skills, she'd be alright. The maturity part would come with life and experience.

Antonia may have some spunk and she may be 'real' but she also strikes me as being rude. It's fine to be outspoken and not afraid to question what Iguana is having her do but there are ways to do that without copping her 'entitlement' attitude (and she certainly has that). She strikes me as someone who was not taught to have respect for her elders and she is nothing more than a outspoken brat IMHO.

She really does make me laugh out loud. I've never seen Dr. Stan so taken aback as he was today when instead of finding Antonia an emotional wreck, which is the norm in that house, he found Antonia taking a nap. I do wonder if she has ever seen SO before, because she seems just mystified by all of the psychobabble. She seemed unprepared to find all of the significance in her father (unlike Namibia who sold her mother down the river at BOR).

(unlike >Namibia who sold her mother >down the river at BOR). > I felt that way, too! But, since this thread is about Antonia---I will add:Regardless of all the problems that Antonia has (and she DOES have problems) I am PROUD of Antonia for not playing the parental-blame-game that SOH is so FOND of! My parents weren't perfect. They were FARrrr from it. (Hint: When NOBODY in the neighborhood wants to play at YOUR house as children, when your parents are home, and decline invitations as adults) BUT, they (my mom & dad) were not responsible for ALL the decisions (good AND bad) that I made in life! That's absurd. At some point in life, in adulthood, it's just NOT mom & dad's FAULT for everything that goes wrong anymore!! I know people who still blame their parents for the mess their life is in, and their parents are DEAD. (in some cases, have been for years.) --The blame continues. (Of course, Iyanla might hold a resurrection ritual so that a HG can address the "issues" around their deceased parent--) I digress. The fact that the LC's push the "parental examining" makes me CRAZY. Where is the personal responsibility for life decisions? (good AND bad??) Antonia might not know how to give a politically correct, tactful, "vanilla," non-conflama, generic, sanitized, grammatically-correct answer that parrots the LC-psychobabble expectation. (True, Antonia should not run for office anytime soon) However, Antonia at least gives HER answer, as true as she knows her answer to be. I respect that about Antonia. I also respect that she doesn't just take EVERYTHING that the LC's want from her, or ask from her at face value. For example, the questions about private sexual matters. My answer would have sounded like Antonia, and would I would have resisted the urge in that meeting to simply say, "Get bent." (But, then again, I've spent more years learning how to sanitize my answers!!)

Antonia is waiting to get all hooked up by SO -lets just cut to the chase and lets all just chip in and get her out of debt ,and head shots or should I say new head shots from a well know photographer, and lets be done with her. She is just average, and if her debt is partly from student loans, then get on the long, long line of the graduate in debt. It's boring and so average. The big mouthed girl, wow....

remember A saying she was too good to ride the bus...to wear 'used clothing'...and many more comments..i don't call those honest..she is no better than anyone else in that house or any person who's trying to pay their bills...she also made a comment that she doesn't really know where the money went..she just blew it basically. everything she owns is in that closet. when IV asked her where did the money go...her reply was idunno. she's a pretty (looking) cute girl but she's not classy. you can ask questions or give your opinion but i think giving your opinion when it's not wanted or asked for or hurtful (such as her comment to cassie about not getting "it" together for her baby) i have two daughters in their twenties and they'd never say something like that. there are some things you don't need to say. i know it's just my opinion or actually what my mother (and i'm fifty yrs old) taught me many yrs ago..'you're accountable for every word out of your mouth'... she's 24 not 14..I do like though how she's affectionate..i hope she grows up soon.

VelvetElegance, you made me laugh out loud with the "sanding in her truth" comment. All of Antonia's issues aside, you're so right. This young woman may be spoiled, abrasive, and over her head in debt, but she is real, and she's no push over. I'm inclined to believe that most of her debt is student loan related, education is extremely expensive. I just completed my master's degree, and it cost me about $25,000. If she went to school away from her home state, it would have cost even more. I do hope that she gets her debt under control, in our society good credit is equivalent to a good reputation. In my opinion, other than her debt, as the youngest HG, Antonia is light years ahead of the other women. I agree with an earlier post that stated that Antonia is not like a sheep, blindly following the LCs. Once she's out of debt, and gets a real job, I'll bet Miss Antonia will be a force to be recogned with. Happy Mother's Day to all you mom's DeltaDarkStar

I am surprised Iyanla hasn't chastised Antonia and Niamba for their mouths and 'its everyone elses fault not mine' attitude before. They also, which I hate to bring up, are starting to use the race issue as an excuse, which is not fair or even close. Maybe they should stop making up excuses and do what they need to do to correct their life situations.

Maybe they should >stop making up excuses and >do what they need to >do to correct their life >situations. I disagree with your post. Niambi made a comment once during group that she did not want to be perceived as the "angry black women." To my knowledge, Antonia has never made a comment about it at all. The HG who seems to be stuck on race is Christie. She took Niambi's comment and ran with it. Christie is the one who decided that she represented all "oppressive" (Christie's words) white women to Niambi. Christie only makes these type of comments in the privacy of the confessional, a rather cowardly approach in my opinion. Niambi does not seem to have a problem getting along with all of the other women in the house, and with the exception of Antonia, they're all white. Her problem is with Christie, not with white women in general, and she lets that be known. Christie, on the other hand, keeps the issue focused on race so that she does not have to "stand in the truth" of her own bitter, hateful, jealous, lazy attitude. Christie has no right to declare herself the spokesperson for all white women. As a women of color, I was insulted by Christie's comment. Niambi never intimated that she felt oppressed by all white women, Christie came up with that conclusion all on her own. Niambi has become Christie's Kim in my opinion. She didn't like Kim because she was pretty, educated, and thin, etc. I think she has the same feelings of envy when it comes to Niambi. Christie needs to get over herself! DeltaDarkStar

I find her highly entertaining. Some of the stuff she says is out of ignorance but I love the fact that she actually questions her life coaches and Dr Stan. She doesn't just parrot back what they want to hear. Sure she has a huge wall to break down but she has me laughing everytime she gets her assignment. Because she always has a comment about it.!

I think in terms of the starting over drama, Antonia is great as comic relief. However, as a person, at least from the standpoint of the editing, she has not grown one bit. True, he assignment does not have to do with self discovery to a great degree. My guess, however, is that Antonia has no interest in becoming a better person because she thinks she is basically perfect as she is, thankl you very much. She has no empathy that does not seem to be fake. She is manipulative. She is "charming" when she wants to be, but I think her emotions are extremely shallow. She has no real sense of remorse for anything she does. She has such a huge sense of entitlement and is surprised when others don't percieve her as entitled. She thinks she shouldn't have to ask for help...she should just be entitled because she puts across an act of being so cute and puppyish. When she didn't get the help, she had to devalue the help because her act didn't work and she didn't want to be percieved as needing anything she didn't get. She beieves it is weakness to really ask for what she needs because needing something means that she doesn't have conrol. She would rather fail and be able to blame external circumstances than admit the she is in anyway not perfect.
