Back in December, "Teen Mom" star Amber Portwood managed to get out of a five-year jail sentence by agreeing to complete a drug rehab program, but last week in court she told a judge that she couldn't finish it. She agreed to go to prison instead. She told ABC News, "In my situation, I felt in the program there were a lot of eyes on me. And it was very uncomfortable. I was not using my anti-psych medication even."
Portwood's legal trouble began in 2010, when she was charged with three felonies for hitting her ex-fiance Gary Shirley in front of their daughter. She managed to get off with two years of probation, but violated her probation when she got in a fight and was found with prescription medication that she didn't have a prescription for. She also attempted suicide on a few occasions. So, this whole ordeal has got us wondering. If you were in Amber Portwood's shoes -- which, for your sake, we hope you aren't -- would you pick prison or rehab?

Actually I'd pick rehab (duh) but this was just too good an opportunity to pass up...
Better to stay outside, get the help you need, and maintain your rights and freedoms.
Going to prison is NOT going to help her work through these problems, I feel bad for her.
I hope she gets help : )
She may feel that this is what she needs to get clean for her daughter.
Rehab doesn't work for some people. Sometimes they need the time in jail to get things put in perspective and get over their hurtles. Sometimes it just takes that level of a reality check to get the wake up call they need. And if she realizes that herself then that's a good thing and a step in the right direction for her.
I wish Amber the best of luck. I've always felt for her from the beginning. May she finally get the help she needs.
...You do know what can happen to you in prison, right?
Seriously, exactly what he said, can you imagine a nicer more subtle way of describing sex??? LOL
Personally, I don't do any drugs, don't drink and drive, and am not a criminal. Therefore, I shouldn't have to worry about this.
