According to the incident report filed with the Council Bluffs Police Department in Iowa, the two were arguing in the kitchen "over child care issues as well as other problems" when Danielson threw an MTV t-shirt at her daughter which ended up landing near or on her grandchild who subsequently woke up crying. From there, things escalated.
"The victim was yelling at Danielson over the shirt throwing and Danielson grabbed her by the throat. The victim pushed Danielson's hand away from her. Victim stated the Danielson then hit her along the side of her head and hit her in the mouth," read the report.

The officer on the scene said: "I observed multiple cuts to the right side of the victim's mouth." The women live together and photos of Abraham's neck and face were taken at the scene.
Danielson was arrested for "Domestic Abuse Serious Assault" and later released on her own recognizance.
She was ordered back in court on February 26 for her preliminary hearing. At that time, the judge will decide whether there is enough evidence to order her to stand trial.

The mom has anger issues and so does Farrah. I hope Farrah breaks the cycle. I think they all need help for Sophia's sake. I think Farrahs mom is the reason Farrah is messed up. They all need help.

Yes Farrah has a lot of growing up to do, but after seeing Farrah's mom hit her last season, I was waiting for something like this to happen. There is no reason her mom should be choking her and beating the crap out of her.

I agree that her mom has some issues. All the more reason Farrah should be living on her own. I think she should've given adoption more consideration since parenting seems to be such an inconvenience for her.

I don't condone what the mother did BUT it must be so hard for her 2 have had her teenage daughter have a baby The girl screws up and the mother is suppose to suffer now taking care of the infant Any grandmother would be happy 2 but not this way.

Side issue: Amber from this same show choked her former fiance and it was memorialized for all of America to see yet she was never charged. And their baby was only a few feet away. I'm still pissed about that one. Oh well.
