[QUOTE="Hound dog, post: 411561, member: 84"] My kids didn't to the Ivy league schools..........but honestly I believe they're doing better than many of their peers due to being shielded from tv until they were old enough to deal with it. I'm sure if Nichole were back at like 15 now and big into tv it would be very hard to deal with her.......because I could see her using what she saw to justify certain behaviors she wanted to do. The way tv is now I'm not even so sure I'd let a teen watch many of the shows.....especially some of the reality ones. It's really bad......and getting worse. Things they get away with doing now just blow my mind. Hoarders is good, I guess that is reality.......but pretty much the only one I watch. I used to catch What Not To Wear once in a while......but that got old as I didn't like their comments to some of the guests. I mean yeah some really obviously dressed poorly especially for their jobs, but some had their own style and preferred comfort and I thought some of their comments were mean..........I don't wear clothes because they're in "fashion" trends go in and out too darn fast. I wear them for comfort and tend to wear things that make my body shape look better if possible.....lol Katie on the other hand was raised (literally) on soap operas. Her mom had her watching them all day long from babyhood. The child cried because I refused to let her watch them when she came to visit........from age 3. omg I guess it's no wonder she thinks the world should be one long drama fest. ugh I'd forgotten about that until this came up. hmm [/QUOTE]
