That commercial reminds me of this blog post from the rebel heart blog. They force their kids to be on a boat 24/7 with not much to do, then bake a yummy cake at night, then when the 3 yo asks for some they lie and say it's all gone and give her 5 gumdrops instead. What the heck. How much cake could a 3 yo possibly eat and why not just give a sliver? It's not as if she had much else to look forward to.

They are no longer at sea (the younger child who was sick just before they left got sick again and they had to be rescued by the national guard and the navy). But I'm sure they'll go right back once they get the funds for a new boat.
