The Family Emphasis

[Blind Gossip] It is fairly obvious that this celebrity couple is not happy about the antics of their first-born child.

They think he may be mentally ill. They don’t know for sure though. The court can force him to go for drug testing, but nobody can force him to go to a doctor or go to therapy.

Why not? Because he is legally an adult.

His upbringing was definitely unconventional.

The emphasis was not on education. It was all about what you look like, how much publicity you are getting, and how famous you are. They set up the kids in their own luxury apartment when they were teens and gave them huge allowances so they could be “independent.”

Gee, what could possibly go wrong by doing that?

You know that [their daughter] dated that tatted-up actor just for publicity, right?

Yes, we know. That turned out so well.

And now the son’s life is a busy whirlwind of substance abuse, tattoos, guns, and attention-seeking behavior.

They always emphasized how important looks are, so they think he is now rebelling against them by mutilating himself.

Unfortunately, until he hurts or threatens to hurt himself or someone else, there is little they can do.

[Optional] Why do you think he is behaving this way? Where do you think he will be in a year?

    Obviously Presley Gerber
    This is very sad. Parents have a duty to raise their children well. The Gerbers sound like awful people, considering how they advised Kaia and treated Pete.

    Crawford/Gerber family.
    Presley Gerber and he’s acting this way because his sister is getting all the attention. Basically he’s screaming because he wants parents, not buddies. If he’s not in jail or dead in a year, it’ll be surprising.

  4. tippi1971 says

    Is this Cindy Crawford’s son? He seems to be rebelling lately and just got the face tattoo.

  6. llabine1 says

    Presley Gerber who now has added a face tattoo….
    His parents Rande Gerber and Cindy Crawford are NOT happy…

  8. SouthJerseyGirl says

    Presley Gerber (Cindy Crawford’s and Rande Gerber’s son)

    I actually feel very sorry for them all – he has problems and they don’t know how to deal with it, but they sound like they were terrible parents…so … Karma.

  15. emmasyd says

    The gerbers

    Such a shame, he was such a good looking guy with a great future ahead of him. But kids need parents to be parents not friends

  16. MinnieMe says

    Cindy Crawford/Rande Gerber
    Because sister is getting all the attention and the parents are busy living their lives.

  18. ItsBouquet says

    The Gerber family.

    He’s behaving that way because he is a spoilt brat with no direction in life. He’ll be in a jail or a behavioral health facility this time next year

  20. radmom says

    Presley Gerber. Cindy Crawford and Rande Gerber. They reap what they’ve sowed. Don’t get upset because you raised your kids to idolize the Kardashians instead of real heroes

  23. blubelle says

    This is Randy Gerber/Cindy Crawford’s son Presley Gerber… sadly, if he doesn’t get help, he’ll either be in prison or dead.

    Another example of narcissistic celebrity parenting gone terribly wrong.

  26. angelbratt says

    That would be the will smith family!

    Poor Jaden! He will be dead or in prison in five years

  27. unchysmoo says

    The Gerbers.

    Presley is spiralling out of control and perhaps trying to figure out who he is.

  29. SilverLining says

    Crawford/Gerber family

    Have no idea but his upbringing/lack of guidance didn’t help. Hopefully, in a year they’ll ALL get the help that they need. It’s a FAMILY problem as well. Sadly, I’m not holding my breath.

  30. Amanda2413 says

    Presley Gerber, Cindy Crawford’s son.

    He must be deeply unhappy. His parents’ idea of independence is just enabling.

  31. Dolley12 says

    Getting a strong vibe this is Cindy Crawford / Rande Gerber son vibe here. Think his name is Presley?

    Really sad if it is mental illness—this does tend to be around the age that issues like Bi-Polar become apparent.

  32. NormaDesperate says

    Gotta be Presley Gerber. I can’t begin to imagine how messed-up those Gerber/Crawford kids must be and he already looks like a disaster. At least Kaia can keep busy with her career (although she looks utterly anorexic), but he’s just looking for trouble and sooner or later, he will DEFINITELY find it…

  33. Baileygirl says

    Cindy and Randy Gerber.
    I think he needs to be hospitalized and detoxed then have intensive mental health care.
    I think he is trying to hurt his parents for the way they emphasized looks and money. He probably feels helpless and dependent on them. What kind of parenting book did they read?

  38. BluebonnetTX says

    Presley Gerber. Such a shame about the tattoos, he was a strikingly handsome guy before he ruined his face.

  39. menageafoie says

    This is the Crawford-Gerber marriage and kids. First the daughter ‘dated’ (yuck) Pete Davidson and now their son is tatting up his face while engaging in what other risky/rebellious behaviours. That’s one messed up family.

  40. luvprue1 says

    Family: Crawford/Gerber
    Their son : Presley Gerber

    Presley has model good looks. But he’s so pretty that sometime he look like a girl. So he might be tattoo his face in order to look more masculine. But he can get addicted to tattoos . So I hope they are able to get him help .

  41. ILUVCA4evr says

    Family: Crawford/Gerber’s

    Why do you think he is behaving this way? They’ve probably told him to start earning his way and the spoiled brat doesn’t wanna work now. Where do you think he will be in a year? With a sugar mama? Helllllooooo Madonna!

  46. AmateurGossipHour says

    Presley Gerber

    Optional: Just because you have money it doesn’t mean you should substitute it for love and attention when caring for kids. I genuinely feel sorry for the guy if his parents have brought him up this way.

  48. trivialtime says

    The Crawford Gerbers
    He likely never got told No. Spoiled. No challenge in life. He’s gonna be an Aaron Carter type.

  49. Meowchie says

    Crawford-Gerbers

    Does anyone remember when Cindy used to brag about being a valedictorian and studying engineering? Strange she raised her kids superficially. I think all young adults act a little wild when they leave their parents. – brain isn’t fully developed.

  51. Jthenurse says

    Family: the Gerbers, and son Presley. Why is he behaving like this? Typical story of rich, egocentric parents who enjoy little kids as adorable props but cut them adrift when the tough parenting requirements start..teens and young adults seek structure/rules then a safe zone for advice & good parents provide it. Too busy with Clooney, Casamigos and Cindy’s skin care line.

    CIndy Crawford and Rande Gerber’s son Presley just got another face tattoo – Kaia is the one they had date Pete Davidson for exposure. I think he is suffering from mental illness and/or substance abuse – I HOPE he will be alive next year

  61. angel55 says

    I think it must be Presley Walker Gerber
    The family – Cindy Crawford and Rande Gerber
    Sister Kaia dated Pete Davidson, a raw wound on legs…

  62. youdidwhat says

    Presley Gerber, Cindy Crawford’s son. Apparently the ‘tattoo’ was a filter.

  65. dadiegirl says

    Cindy Crawford and Rande Gerber

    Serves them right for MULTIPLE reasons! One, their treatment of Pete Davidson. How appropriate that their son should be in the same predicament. Can you say “KARMA”?!??

    Celebrity children are f*d up. Who knows what he’s seen or experienced? God bless him!

  66. millergal says

    Cindy Crawford/Rande Gerber’s son Presley
    He was raised with an entitlement mentality. He may have mental health issues and the family hasn’t acknowledged it. I hope he will be on his way to recovery.

  67. lisaNJ says

    The Gerber/Crawford family. Presley Gerber just got another face tattoo.

    Kids need structure when they’re younger, even when (or especially when) they don’t want it. Parents need to set boundaries until children are old enough to understand the consequences of their actions. If you’re too permissive when they’re little, this is what you end up with.

  68. BDBoop says

    Will/Jaden son. Don’t know where he’ll be. Or any of us, really. Life is an ongoing tornado right now.

  70. Whisper says

    The Gerbers son Presley. He’s behaving like a lost soul because as you said the parents gave him a shallow upbringing. That’s negligence, he has nothing meaningful to hold onto. I can’t even guess what his future holds.

  71. babyjane2017 says

    cindy crawford and hubby

    son:
    presley gerber
    rehab in a year… if he even makes it that long..

  74. Renee2 says

    Pressley Gerber. More face tattoos.
    He’s a product of his upbringing. It’s very sad. Maybe with therapy he can find some kind of self-worth and a happier path in life.

  78. truth_sayer says

    Family: The Crawford-Gerber family r.e. Presley

    Both Kaia and Presley seem pretty troubled tbh. They’re upbringing obviously wasn’t the best.

  80. MaryQuiteContrary says

    Cindy Crawford/Rande Gerber/Presley Gerber

    I think he is definitely mentally ill but more importantly very spoiled and entitled.

  85. hika says

    Family: Cindy Crawford and Rande Gerber

    He’s acting out. Probably he’d be in and out rehabs and have a lot much more face tats.

  86. Borzoi B says

    The Gerber Boy
    What were they thinking terrible parenting .

    All the emphasis is on Kai he feels left out he will probably be in rehab next year .

  89. LAmariposa says

    Family: Crawford/The Gerbers
    Optional: Substance abuse due to childhood trauma (sh**ty parenting?). I dont know where he’ll be a year from now but hopefully somewhere better! Poor guy.

  90. stellavill says

    Cindy Crawford’s son. So sad. This is what happens when children are spoiled and education is NOT a priority. Shame on parents. It’s not gonna be pretty when this son is older.

  92. MrsCleaver says

    Cindy Crawford & Randy Gerber & their model son Pressley.
    This is what happens when you pimp your kids out around town as “models” at a young age. They end up with the wrong groups of people & then no one but the parents are shocked.
    He’ll be in rehab (again) in a year. Maybe next to his attention seeking sister. Great job Cindy & Randy!

  95. ILikeSleep21 says

    Presley Gerber
    I dont feel bad for any of them tbh. They’ve created their own problems.

  98. omgimbackagain says

    Cindy Crawford’s son -don’t know his name – he must be so messed up with what he’s seen. Not his fault.

  99. Gerseychick says

    Cindy and Randy Gerber’s Son….Misunderstood….Money does not buy smarts……

  101. noinin says

    Cindy Crawford’s son.
    Celebrities seem to have nannies who take care of their children until they are teenagers, and then boom ! expect them to be independant and adult at the ripe age of 14. What can you expect from kids who have never really gotten any attention, nor guidance, nor education, and who have no purpose in life ?

  102. Beakerange says

    The increasingly dusturbing Gerber family.
    Where did this come from, I thought they were normal

  103. MrsCleaver says

    Cindy Crawford & Randy Gerber & their two “model” kids
    Yeah that’s what happens when you pimp your kids out for their looks instead of having them go to school & do something with their life besides “modeling” and “life style” blogging.
    He’ll be in rehab “again” in another year.

  104. aaaWhoMe says

    They are terrible people. One look at Rande’s hugely inappropriate posts of his then underage daughter on Instagram told me all I needed to know.

    This is very sad to watch play out and it won’t end well for Presley.

  106. Curmudgeon says

    The Gerbers, Rande and Cindy Crawford
    Sad, what parents can do to their children. And what beautiful children, both of them, Kaia and brother Presley. Kaia dated Pete Davidson, the tatted-up actor, for a bit. And Presley continues to tatt up his own body, most recently across his beautiful face.
    Imagine his childhood, his parents insisting that the most important things in life are physical attractiveness, publicity, and fame, all so ephemeral. He’s acting out against it now. Six feet under?

  108. rexczarina says

    Whatever happened to Will Smith’s first son? It’s the two he had with Jada that seem caught up in Hollywood (Jaden and Willow).

  109. sunshine702 says

    Cindy Crawford and Randy Gerber’s kids

    The face tattoo of Presley. Needs actual job

  114. aaaHils says

    Cindy and Rande have made their children into mini models. And if Rande if Rande is really George Clooney’s guilty pleasure then there are major issues in that household.

  118. charlene2345 says

    Family: Rande Gerber and Cindy Crawford and their kids.

    [Optional] Why do you think he is behaving this way? Where do you think he will be in a year? Hate to say it, but if serious action isn’t taken, he may not be alive in a year. This is all the parents’ fault for screwing up their kids, and making them believe looks and money are the only valuable things in life.

  121. Melvin says

    Family: The Smiths, Will And Jada Pinkett
    Son: Jaden
    [Optional] Why do you think he is behaving this way?
    Poorly educated and socialized.
    After seeing Doctor Strange, Jaden said he is going to become a Sorcerer.
    He has claimed he is a Philosopher Scientist in the past.

    [Optional] Where do you think he will be in a year?
    Looking for the next thing that will occupy his attention for awhile.

  125. Gintastic says

    Jayson Smith
    Kids need boundaries to feel safe, hell we all work better when we have boundaries. He has mental health issues. Very sad and can’t believe that his parents think that is the best way to raise kids…

    • Gintastic says

      Blimey, auto correct ‘Jayden’
      However I should probably change my guess to the Gerber child now I have googled him 😉
      Everything about that family is fake and built on image. That whole debacle about Cindy’s un photoshopped photos and the need to push daughter into the spotlight. Ugh

  129. bhakti says

    Presley Gerber
    Parents are Rande Gerber and Cindy Crawford
    Sister is Kaia who dated Pete Davidson

    This is so sad. Face tattoos are the worst. His eyes look very hollow inside. He’s either depressed/has a psychiatric issue or he’s self medicating or both. I hope he finds peace

  130. Molly7111 says

    Family: The Gerber family, Cindy Crawford and husband Randy Gerber.
    Son: Presley Gerber

  131. Tinytoon76 says

    Cindy Crawford & Randy Gerber

    He’s probably jealous of all the attention his sister is receiving, she’s the more popular of the 2.

  132. badgerette85 says

    Cindy Crawford/Randy Gerber son
    Op- priorities skewed….about being relevant and the appearance, and being an adult long before he was ready – rather than just being a kid doing stupid kids things. So sad.

  133. psychicdeath says

    Cindy Crawford and Rande Gerber

    Presley Gerber’s strange behavior, face tattoos, etc.

    Probably been spoiled his entire life and is seeking attention.

  134. redbus says

    this the gerber kids…so sad. I truly wonder if the parents thought they were doing the right thing with them.

  138. 4sixx2 says

    Cindy Crawford/Randy Gerber
    He’s been far too spoiled for far too long to figure out how to be normally independent and a functioning member of society. Permissive parenting gives you messed up kids! I don’t understand how any one would look towards celebrities for voting advice!

  140. NotQuiteFamous says

    Cindy Crawford’s son with the face tattoos. He’s spoiled. That’s why he’s acting this way.

  141. ohiknowthis says

    Cindy and Rande’s “spawn” Presley.

    He acts this way because he’s a spoiled punk.

  146. redstilettos says

    Cindy and Rande Gerber. Kaia seems normal. Not sure what’s going on with Presley. Cry for help?

  148. Theaterfan says

    He’s acting out against them and what they emphasized. Poor guy. Should have had an education. Same thing goes for his sister.

    I’ll think he might be dead next year.

  150. Zafona says

    Crawford-Gerbers
    It’s not necessary a psychiatric problem.
    They’ve just spoiled their children. It always ends like this.

    • Alexis_Rose says

      The psychiatric problem belongs to the parents. This is not how you raise teenagers.
