TLC's 'Birth Moms': Pregnant Woman Considering Adoption Is Smoking, Ordering Tequila

TLC's 'Birth Moms': You Won't Believe What This Pregnant Woman Is Doing

You think MTV's "Teen Moms" are troubled? Meet Kandice, a 23-year-old mom of two who got pregnant again from a one-night stand and is deciding whether or not to give the baby up for adoption. The former prostitute, escort and drug addict has been clean for over four years, but TLC's new one-hour special "Birth Moms" (premieres Thurs., May 17, 10 p.m. ET) caught her falling off the wagon -- big time.

In our exclusive sneak peek, we see Kandice, angry that a police officer took away her driver's license after she was caught shoplifting ... but she gets even angrier when the waitress at a Mexican restaurant cards her for ordering a strawberry-banana margarita (not a virgin margarita) and she can't produce ID.

Kandice calls the cop and, somehow, someway, convinces him to bring her license to her at the restaurant. While waiting for him to show up (he does), she says wine won't do after a day like this -- she needs tequila! Then she proceeds to smoke a cigarette.

"I've been wanting to drink for how long?" Kandice fumes. "I came here to have a drink. Not for the food -- I wanted liquor!"

What makes this scene even more sickening? She's with two other pregnant girls who do little to stop her. Watch the clip above to see for yourself.
