An 18 year-old star of MTV's reality hit Teen Mom was allegedly choked and hit by her mother on Saturday, Iowa's Daily Nonpareil reports.
According to police reports obtained by the newspaper, Farrah Abraham was involved in a heated, physical argument with her mother, Debra Danielson, who was arrested on suspicion of domestic abuse/serious assault.

The pair fought in their Council Bluffs, Iowa home over "childcare issues and other problems," the Daily Nonpareil says. This led to Danielson, 54, throwing an MTV shirt at her daughter; the clothing item landed near Abraham's infant daughter Sophia, who began crying.

When Abraham yelled about the t-shirt, her mother allegedly grabbed her by the throat and then "struck her on the right side of the head and her mouth." The report notes that Abraham had "multiple cuts" on her lips.

Tell Us What You Think
424I was a young mom, I certainly did not make the mistakes Farrah makes but that's not to say I made no mistakes as no other mother can say, yes this young woman needs to be taught, yes she probably should have the common sense to know better but a person can be led & taught w/o being hassled for her faults. I'm 27, I think shes young & needs to get it together ASAP but her mom should really be working with her & not putting her down because she still wants to be young, she loves her little one= potential.
I was a teen mom of 2 and didnt whine and cry as much as she does about been a teen mom!No her mom is not controlling and the girl has no clue on how to raise a little girl she left the child in a tub while she laid out a blanket thousands of babies are killed like that every year!So yes her mom may be crazy but she needs to babysit her daughter so she dont harm her child!
farrah is a spoiled brat and that is all ther is to it!
I watch the show every week and was shocked that she left Sophia alone in the bath, alone in the hallway when she went into the apartment to "lay out a blanket", alone on the bed,alone in the kitchen with cleaning supplies. Although I think Debra is crazy and i sometimes feel bad for Farrah I believe Sophia had the supervision she needed with Debra.
Farrah is a horrible mom! She wants to say her mom threw a shirt at her baby; well guess what: Farrah leaves her baby unattended in the sink where the baby burns herself with hot water; she left the baby unattended on the bed where she fell and hit her head; she also was going under the sink about to play with ajax! She needs to baby proof that apartment! I think child protective services should get involved before that baby gets seriously hurt, they need to make her take parenting classes. She was better off with the mother.
her mom is too controlling, she has not once supported her daughter that was taking care of her own school, paying her own bills, and taking care of her daughter. She hardly got any time to herself and no wonder she has an attitude. Her mother does nothing but try and make her feel like a piece of crap and disregard her feelings. She is 18 yrs old and a heckuva lot more responsible than most of those girls. Just because you have a kid doesnt mean you cant have a life and her mom was trying to make that impossible. At the very least she could show Farrah some compassion. It is no wonder the poor girl has issues with her mom.
I came from an abusive home... although my son wasnt born til I was I had my college degree.. I was 23.. My cousin had 3 kids by the time that she was 18. Farrah is a responsible teen. She manages her time well... she was going to school, paying her own bills, and is 18 years old! Her mother constantly controls her life telling her what to do, where to go, who to hang out with. She needs to get a life and understand an 18 yr old is still going to be an 18 yr old and as responsible as she is, constantly being mentally abused by her mom and sis telling her what a horrible mom she is for wanting to breathe on her own for a few hours. Her mother is the one that deserved to be knocked out, not Farrah. All teens have a mouth. This one would be no different and yeah she had a kid but FAMILY is supposed to be there for you and support you. Not make you feel like a piece of crap constantly or try and separate you from your kids father if he would have been a good guy, or punish the baby for the mistakes of the mom. That is crap. They never even helped Farrah get through the fact the love of her life died. They just acted like it wasnt a big deal and said oh well its better that way. Regardless of how bad you think of that person you NEVER say that to your child. Farrah has EVERY RIGHT to have an attitude. Hell if I had parents that treated me like that crap I would too!
I can't believe this. I know they get into fights but really? hitting?
I gotta say, I should've seen this one coming! I am a 35-year-old mother of a 13-year-old daughter, Emma-Grace, and we watch every episode of 16 and pregnant and Teen Mom, and then we discuss it. My husband and daughter and I are devout in our Christian lifestyle and beliefs, and so we do believe in abstinince until marriage, though we try not to judge. But, the reason we watch this with our child, is because we want her to see the consequences of pre-marital sex, teenage sex, especially. Farrah has been a very controversial subject in our home. We believe that she outta be allowed out once every other weekend, but with a time limit, but with the attitude she gives her parents about it, and her attitude in general, why would her mom wanna let her go out? And, Debra is FARRAH'S mother, her responsibility is Farrah, not Sophia, so, why should she even have to watch Sophia while Farrah parties? All I gotta say, is that if Emma-Grace ever yelled at me like that, or told me to "shut the f**k up' she wouldn't be able to sit down for a month!
im glad her mom beat her ass. not nice in front of the baby but she deserved it! thats what you get when you bite the hand that feeds you. from watching the show, farrah pushed her mom and was never nice or gratful for her mother. if i treated my mother like that i would expect a slap across the face! i am a teen mother and take what my mother has to offer me as a blessing, i wouldnt be able to do it with out her. farrah too should be greatful her mother does all that she does for her.
the mom should go to prison for harming the baby its just horrible
I am too a Teen Mom and it did get harder.I got prego at 15 and and now i am 18.I think that i should have at least waited a few more years before i had my child.Though i never regret having her :D. I think watching the Teen Moms is interesting and i can have a connection with some of the episodes. -LOVE: Me:]
REGARDLESS IF SHE IS A BRAT OR NOT, NO ONE SHOULD BE HANDLE THAT WAY. SPECIALLY IN FRONT OF A INFANT. I HOPE SHE IS OK AND I HOPE THE MOTHER GETS WHAT SHE DESERVES.
im watching "Teen Mom" right now, and that girl is a brat! HUGE BRAT! I don't agree with what her mom did, but in any other country Farah would have been beaten LONG AGO and she probably would have been killed. I wish after this Farah would reflect on herself, but now she's probably just going to blame all of her problems on "her abusive mother", yeah right.
I agree that violence is never the answer. But, on the other hand there is only so much a person can take. Farrah is a very rude daughter and should be ashamed of herself for talking to her mother like that. And the whole going out and leaving the baby with her mom is NOT ok. She had the baby NOT her mom. She is spoiled and needs a reality check. Yes, she is still a teenager but those days are over and gone! If I could grow up and be a good mom then surely she can as well. I think Farrah needed to be woken up from her little fantasy world. I'm sure her mother just snapped because of Farrah being a little brat and altough it was a mistake to hit her...you can't really blame her.
this is so sad! ow i know farrahs mother can be controlling. but i also know farrah has a little attitude but thats gives her mother NO REASON TO CHOKE HER DAUGHTER. i think her mother has always been abusive. farrah, you need to move far far away and live the best you can!
i can not believe ths happened, i mean i have watched every episode since the show started and i can see that her mother can be controlling. i can also see that farrah can have an attitude but there was NO REASON FOR HER MOTHER TO CHOKE HER. i think that maybe farrahs mother has abused her in the past and maybe thats why farrah has a little attitude because she has to be defenisve for herself and her daughter sophia.
i think that even if farrah was yelling at her mom her mom should of never should of crossed the line by hitting farrah
Assult is NEVER ok. Regardless off the reasoning behind it....and should absolutely never be tolerated, especially if there is a child involved!!
im sorry but the fake last show where she claims to be getting better was a hoax she is a brat and probably needed it i know if i was her mother it wouldnt have taken that long with the way she yelled and cussed at her it was ridiculous
