Teen Mom Tyler Baltierra’s sister Amber slammed for vowing to ‘have a relationship’ with daughter he placed for adoption
TYLER Baltierra's sister, Amber, has stirred trouble after posting a message for the star's eldest daughter Carly on her birthday.
The Teen Mom OG star and his wife, Catelynn Lowell, placed their firstborn child for adoption after welcoming her when they were teenagers.
Tyler's older sister, however, angered fans after she vowed to "have a relationship" with her now 13-year-old niece in a social media post.
"My niece is 13 today y'all. Happy birthday Carly. I legit can't wait to have a relationship with you. Make today the best one yet," Amber wrote.
The post circulated to Reddit, where Teen Mom fans ripped the 34-year-old for her "inappropriate" post.
"That seems like she feels like she’s entitled to a relationship with her. Pretty selfish and inappropriate, not to mention immature. I wouldn’t want a relationship with Amber if I was Carly," one person replied.

"Tyler’s family being inappropriate and creepy in regards to their relationship with Carly? I’m shocked I tell you, shocked!" another sarcastically commented.
"It’s disgusting and inappropriate on so many levels. Carly biologically is her niece but that’s it. She’s never met her or spoken to her.
"Amber is a STRANGER to Carly and to have Carly potentially see this one day (in my opinion) would scare her. This is borderline obsessive and stalker…" a third remarked.
A fourth fan echoed the statement, believing that Amber "crossed some boundaries," while others thought the post was "disrespectful" to Carly's adoptive parents, Brandon and Teresa Davis.

BIRTHDAY TRIBUTE
Tyler shared a heartbreaking poem for his firstborn in honor of her special day.
In the post, Tyler shared a photo of him and Catelynn holding Carly when she was a newborn on Instagram and captioned it: "Happy 13th Birthday Carly! I don’t really have the words to describe how I feel today… so I figured I’d share a poem that I wrote for her instead."
The poem read: "I never wanted to let you go, I hope you understand
I wanted to hold you in my arms forever, Like your fingers around my pinky, In the palm of your little hand.
"I reminisce of your beautiful face, Swaddled so tight in your baby blanket, Your spirit so innocent...& guess what?
"I still have that baby blanket... It’s folded in the chest by my bed
& sometimes I unravel it, Just to put it around my neck & pretend it’s you I’m holding instead.
"Because everyday I wake up, With you beating in my heart & dancing in my head, Oh how I wish you could Twirl in my hands, One day soon my love… I promise we will dance again.
"But until that day comes I’ll be seeing you in my dreams, Replaying the sweet memory on repeat, Of my pinky in the palm of your little hand."
He concluded: "I love you so much Carly & I can’t wait to hold your hand again #Adoption#BirthParentStrong."
Catelynn shared her own tribute to Carly, posting a TikTok montage of photos with her daughter.
She captioned it: "Happy 13th Birthday Carly!!! We love you deeply and pray you have the time of your life today and everyday! We think of you always."
Tyler and Catelynn have remained in close contact with Carly throughout her life.
The high school sweethearts are also parents to daughters Novalee, seven, Vaeda, three, and Rya, eight months.
FANS' CONCERN
Amber has two children of her own that she recently regained custody of despite her alcohol relapse at the time.
She is a mom to daughter Lexis and son Jordan with her ex Matthew Bell.
The Sun exclusively revealed that Amber and Matt were ordered to share temporary joint legal and joint physical custody of Lexis and Jordan at a court hearing on July 29.
In November, Amber resurfaced in a rare photo as she shared a Snapchat selfie, which showed her posing with puckered lips while sporting purple scrubs.
However, fans were quick to take it to Reddit to react, with the majority showing quite a bit of concern.
One person wrote: "Poor thing," while another asked, "Is she using again?"
Amber's brother, Tyler, has been open about how he's struggled with his older sibling's addiction.
TROUBLED PAST
Earlier this year, a scene from Teen Mom OG showed Tyler's devastation at learning Amber had relapsed and was drinking again.
A promo clip had Tyler's mom, Kim, tell him and his wife Catelynn the news, to which he responded: "Oh, f**k."
Although Tyler said his sister likes to "indulge in happiness," Kim feared her daughter was following in the footsteps of Tyler's drug-addict father, Butch.
Tyler, 29, reflected on how he could understand how Amber's children may feel not having their mom around after his own experience with his absentee father.
He said: "As a kid, you feel like what's wrong with me? I'm just irritated with it. Why are you not putting me first?
"Why are you not here enough? Why don't you want to be with me and hang out with me every weekend and go get high? It doesn't make sense."
