It amazes me that shows like this are on TV. Whose reality is this, certainly not mine or anyone I know. If these types of shows represent the average American, I want to know where they all live, because it's not where anyone I know lives. What a sad reflection of values, or lack thereof and what an injustice to this kid. Along withToddlers and Tiaras, Swamp People, and Hoarders, etc., it's just pure exploitation and as long as people watch it, it will go on. Are you that bored? Ugh!!
