Re: The World's Strictest Parents- SERIES 2
I swear, it really grinds my gears (titter titter) that this sort of programme seems so popular. It's almost as though we're determined to make ourselves look like morally bankrupt reprobates. These kids aren't the norm, and they all (as we saw in this ep) have some serious issues going on in their heads. That said, there is a clamorous minority in this country (as in all others) that, to be perfectly frank, deserve a bullet to the temple.
One good thing that came out of this episode in particular is that everyone reached a happy medium. The kids thought "hmm...maybe I should be nicer"...the 'mother' thought "hmm...I guess I'm a bit bigoted".
These parents weren't raising their kids well, though. The 'father' was aggressive and domineering (it's funny 'cause he said he wanted to be a good dad to make up for his own ¬_¬), and I don't agree with those weekly bedroom searches, nor forcing religion. If they want to go to church, that's great...religion makes lots of people happy, good for them, but under no circumstances should it be mandate. (On that note...what was with that psychadelic leaping around stage at his church...dodgy stuff, if you ask me).
Sometimes I think God was these parents' best invention..."you have to tidy your room because we're in charge of you, and God's in charge of us...ipso facto, God wants you to tidy your room".
grr.
