While it may be dubbed as a "Reality Show" Bristol Palin's show appears to be anything but that. Most of the scenes are staged according to the Huffington Post. http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2011/...ml?icid=maing-grid7|main5|dl2|sec1_lnk3|85743
Reality shows are a blight. The Marines should make Gitmo inmates watch this one and they'd have a map to the WMD before the first commercial break.
Why would anyone be interested in what Bristol is doing, anyway? Why make a reality show? Stay home and look after your baby son, instead of parading around in front of the cameras. She's a mother, maybe she should start acting like one.
Huh? Working women can't be good mothers? Of course, we can be... In defense of Bristol - she has an ideal job. Her own tv show and her son is one of the stars, so of course, they're together..... good for her..... I bet Levi I-wanna-be-a-model-or-actor Johnston is really eating his heart out! Lol.........
Its fine with her having her own TV show, not that I would watch, but my point is, she is a mother, and raising her son is number one. Instead, she has cameras on her, filming her and her little boy - and what say does the child have in all this?
Lol! Well, let's see .... how old is the boy? I'm guessing around 3? So, of course, he or not any child would have anything to say about what momma (or daddy) does for a living. Look, the boy is w/his mother all day, safe and sound and that's the only thing that matters..... it's not going to be a forever thing in front of the cameras and she's earning great $ to secure their future..... Also, if you were in her place, you'd grab the reality show opportunity also and don't deny it..... Now I'm going to go and find my bed .... good nite.
Ugh, I hate reality shows because guess what, they really aren't reality. Some people act different in front of a camera. And there's always the editing.
And yet your opinion on Octomum and her reality TV show is rather different to the opinion you have here.
Don't know where you got this from b/c I never had an opinion of the Octomom and her reality show. Did she have one? I had heard she would, but since I never watch them, I didn't give it anymore tho't....... If a woman who's in Bristol's or Octomom situations and needs $ to secure her and kids future are offered a reality show - they'd be crazy not to grab that opportunity b/c they can make a small fortune. You need $ to raise kids. The last I heard about that idiot Octomom was she was hiding in her bathroom from her 14 kids and she was telling the interviewer about how depressed and flat broke she is....... Social services needs to step in, talk to the oldest kids and find out exactly what life is like for them and siblings and do something to help them.... Anyway - more power to Bristol and Tripp!
"Exploiting" how so? The boy is on the set w/his mother in a family setting at all times and IIRC, according to the law, a child movie/tv star is allowed only X # of hrs a day in front of the camera..... not positive about that, but you can research it........ I don't see the harm in BP & her son doing a reality show and these shows are usually a temporary thing.... he's w/his mother and that's the most important thing about her job - she can take her son to work w/her. There's been other reality shows that kids were in - I think one was called "Kate & William(?) a couple who had something like 19-20 kids.... I'm not sure about their # of kids, but a lot - never watched that one either.... Don't fret about Tripp - I'm sure he's a happy, well-adjusted little guy...
She is also the only one supporting her son as is true of so many women in America. Those guys like to make babies but not support them. Why would anyone have an issue with a woman supporting herself through her own contributions? In the Real World, woman do it all the time particularly when the "guys" are not to be found either helping to raise or support their children.
Why should she be in school? She already has a well paying job which is the purpose of going to school. I dunno, making lots of dough looks okay to me. I am of the opinion that all labor is honest. Sadly, working, earning a living, doing labor is not a word many Dems understand cause they are collecting the Welfare Check.
Some said the same thing about her being on DWTS. Well, she did it anyway and her earnings bought her a home in AZ for her & son... not to shabby....... If you were offered your own reality show, you'd grab it, earning $ hand over fist and you'd be so proud of yourself and the word 'tacky' would never occur to you...... and you know it......
Some people really believe they know what's best for someone they don't know, never met and never will..........
The great scam of Reality TV, is the "reality" part. You think Bristol has found a new way to present contrived melodrama? I guess nothing is staged on Pawn Stars or Ice road Truckers!!!!! LMFAO!!! If you need reality go watch wrestling!!!!
Like mother, like daughter. Never before seen a family so willing to prostitute themselves at all costs. Except that slut with the eight kids. Who the f*ck watches this trash anyway? It's a seriously sad state of the world. We're f*cked, no doubt.
So what? She was given the offer to write her memoirs and paid for it - why shouldn't a 20 yr old take the offer? Another opportunity that anyone would grab......... The beating & name calling this young woman has gone thru since age 17 just b/c she was pregnant and b/c her mother happened to be Sarah Palin is one of the most despicable things I'd ever seen. You vultures have never let up on her........ She's now a mom w/a 3 yr old son and has been given the opportunities to earn big $ and I say more power to her! And I also believe that any of you who criticize her career choices or book writing is eating your heart out b/c she's earning $ at the age of 20 that you've only dreamed about........ DWTS, writing her memoirs and having her own reality show won't last forever. These opportunities for Bristol may end next yr or so or maybe sooner - so meanwhile she has earning power that obviously makes your teeth rattle ... lol! Why else are you so critical of her?
