Glad to see that others find that child so obnoxious! Ill mannered, rude and all the things I don't find attractive or appealing in a child. Blame her parents for her behaviour, because children are born with a blank slate, its up to parents to teach them. I caught glimpses of her on some talk shows and was appalled at her antics! I will never watch her program.

I watched this show for 10 minutes and told my DH this"Get that child to my house I will teach her manners. She has a potty mouth and their house is nasty. But then the parents are no better then she is. You learn from your parents. God help her when she grows up. the show (can you read) made me so mad. Can't watch it. This is my feelings on HBB.

You're so right that the reality shows are NOT real. They are staged. If you don't believe me, I have a bridge...well you know the rest of that. And the scariest of this whole thing is that Barbara Walters thinks "Honey Boo Boo" is one of the most interesting people of 2012!!!

Also, I'm tired of any cop/murder/CSI shows. Too much violence. And why do we have so much violence in our society? I'm putting on rose colored glasses and watching Hallmark!

As a retired teacher, just wait'll she hits public school. Whew-ee, I sure would like to see THOSE episodes. I'd have those parents in BEFORE school started with the principal, guidance counselor, and probably superintendent sitting in...oh, and for good measure the school district's lawyer, because that is ONE child that is going to be a HUGE problem. But maybe they'll go the home school route. Just sayin'...

We can only hope that is 15 minutes of fame. This program is deplorable! Pure illiterate trash.

This is nothing more or less than child abuse. Remove the child from the home and pray it isn't too late for rehabilitation. Parents are candidates for counselling. However since when do families every move have to be sensationalized for "entertainment". Isn't it common sense to raise children in a safe healthy environment playing and reading etc.

Think You Tube, Facebook, blogs, etc. lots of trash for the world to see. HBB is tame compared to violent and sexualized movies, soaps and TV dramas. HBB will Run its course.

She is precocious for sure and this show portrays a real slice of society that many on this board may not have experienced...esp in light of the "trailer trash" labels mentioned in this thread. Wow!

At least this family/ parental unit is married and the family seems to genuinely love each other and do things together tho their lifestyle may not agree with ours. They look like they are having fun.

The Kardashians are having a sleazier kind of "fun" . Kim is knocked up while still legally married to the football player she duped.. No, i don't watch their show. The pastors' kid, the unmarried Jessica Simpson, is touting the benefits of Weight Watchers while proudly announcing her second pregnancy in her commercial for WW. Hmmmm.

The world is crazy, I agree.

They are not married as I understand, they talked about it on one show.

Of 40 replies to this post, (I counted)....all turned a thumbs down except one person who says she watches it. Like the majority, my time is too valuable to waste on watching/listening to this bratty child who hasn't been reared properly...or who is allowed by her parents to follow the producers scripts...so tell me how it stays on the air???

I think that it is demeaning and disgusting and thrives on ignorance. I can't imagine that anyone would want to watch this, much less enjoy it.
