i was just curious if i'm the only nutty one here. i watched this show last week & again this week; "Honey,we're killing the kids". what strikes me the most isn't just how damn unhealthy these kids are (eating fried food or just dounuts) but how f*cking spoild the are!
i'm only 26 so when i say the phrase "when i was a kid" it wasn't so long ago. if i ever threw a tantrum over a tv time limit my mom would have beaten the crap out of me. let alone not eating dinner at the table with the family or playing video games all the time (we had an atari that we'd break out once a year for about a week at a time, i just recently got a playstation 2), and even as an adult i have only one tv, i wouldn't think of putting one in my 8 year old's room. actualy, now that i think of it; my mom would have beaten the crap out of me for just about everything these kids are doing![]()
of couse the tv show is based off high drama anyway...the parents are shown aged pics of what their kids will look like in a room that i'm waiting to hear a survivor style announcement in..."you're off the island!! bad parent!"
