“I was a teen mom and Ryan was probably 3 years old, and he was screaming in the car. He would not be quiet," she recalled to PEOPLE. "He was in his car seat. And I stopped the car and I said, ‘If you don’t be quiet, I’m gonna take your car seat out and put it on the curb and I’m gonna drive away.’"

And Ryan has an equally-vivid memory of that incident. She added, “And to this day, he still reminds me. He might’ve been a little older, ’cause he sure remembers! He’s like, ‘Mom, that was horrible, I can’t believe you said that!’ I go, ‘That is horrible.’"

When Tamra recently stopped by The Daily Dish offices, she opened up more about her life as a mom to her four kids, including the three kids she shares with her second husband, Simon Barney: Spencer, Sophia, and Sidney. You can see her spilling all of her family's secrets in the video, above.
