Apparently being an irresponsible, violent teenage tramp is way more lucrative then our parents led on as they encouraged us to get an education and keep our legs closed.

Amber Portwood may have many struggles as a teen mom, but money obviously isn’t one of them.

The Teen Mom star has revealed she makes $140,000 for a six-month contract with MTV for filming the show.

Portwood made the disclosure during a court appearance with Madison County magistrate Steven Clase on Tuesday following her arrest on charges she assaulted ex-fiance Gary Shirley on Monday, The Herald Bulletin reported.

During the appearance, the 20-year-old from Anderson, IN, described her profession as a “television personality” and was asked to reveal her annual income, but her attorney Kathleen Sweeney interjected and claimed the question was irrelevant, according to Bulletin.

“I object,” Sweeney said.

“You what?” Clase asked Sweeney before overruling her objection.

After disclosing her contract, Portwood said she would make $280,000 if she worked for the entire year.

SMH, what message are we sending our daughters exactly, America???
