Nah im kidding but dont you think they spoiled do they have to pay to put there kids on TV?
Answer
I totally agree with you that these kids are so way beyond being spoiled. I think that even if you do have that much money you shouldn't be buying these ridicuolously luxurious things! I can see maybe buying them a car like a Kia or something very modest but a BMW? These kids are going to get used to everything being handed to them on a platter. What happens if the parents go broke and lose all thier money? It does happen.
I like watching the show, don't get me wrong. It is very entertaining. And I do love some of the themes they come up with, they're really cool. Sometimes though I feel embarassed for these kids though just watching them. I've seen several have temper tantrums and even cry because they didn't get everything they wanted. Spending that much on a watch for a teen let alone ANYONE is just plain stupid! I would honestly tell my parents "Look, I appreciate the gift but I'd like to donate that money to charity instead and if you guys just want to get me a little something that's cool (like a $500 ring or something)". If my parents were super rich and wanted to get me a luxury car then I'd want to at least work part-time in the summers to help pay for it so I didn't look so spoiled. That way when kids called me a "spoiled brat" then I could tell them that I do help pay for it.
I don't think the kids get paid for being on MTV reality shows. I'm sure that the "bragging rights" are probably all these kids want anyways. I hate it when the kids are like "My parents buy me whatever I want and I'm the richest kid in town" blah, blah, blah. These parents that throw these outlandish parties for their kids are just feeding into this notion that material possessions are more important than family values! I like the idea that if yoou are going to have a big 16th birtday bash if you are the kid of a millionaire than you should at least make it a charity event as well as a party (kinda like in the move "My Super Sweet 16", remember that?).
Didn't you LOVE it when they made some of these brats go to those poor, foreign countries and make them live and work with the poor natives? I hope they continue that show too. I think it is so important if you are really wealthy (or even if you are not) that you give back.

Do you believe that kids who don't watch cartoons, read comics, or play video games perform better in school?
Over 2800
Don't call them nerds. Some people can't afford these luxuries. Those of you who can, consider yourselves fortunate.
Answer
Not at all.
Too much of all of the above is no good for any kid. However, None of them is even worse. Kids who don't do at least SOME cartoons, comics or video games are likely maladjusted in some other way.
Call them Nerds if you want but any kid without at least SOME "Nerd" in him is misplaced and likely lives a Miserable life.
The first group you might think who does none of the above are Jocks. Some don't but I would bet that over 90% of those considered Jocks does at least one of the above.
My nephew is a phenomenal college football player, extremely popular and has many friends. Still, he enjoys an occasional Madden football game.
I played Football and boxed for years and I have a comic collection over 4000 strong. I'm no good at video games but I still play when I visit my nieces and nephews. I kick their butts in boxing. LOL, they own me in the rest and I STILL love an occasional cartoon, esp. any superhero cartoon.
Get Superman/Batman Public Enemy. IT's AWESOME.
Growing up, I had Nerd friends and Jock friends. I was often the link between the two. My best friends, Keith and Joe had NOTHING in common. Keith read comics and couldn't throw a ball to save his life. Joe could play every sport. I introduced Keith to sports and discovered that Joe could draw much better than I ever could. Our common ground was bike riding, which we all enjoyed.
I've known some kids who do none of the above. Unfortunately, for those few, their lives ended up in misery. Some are in jail, some are dead. It's not to say your life will turn out for the worse if you don't do some of these but SOMETHING is not normal if you're a kid and don't enjoy these activities in some way.
Advice: Be a Kid as LONG as you can. It's only a VERY SHORT part of your life. Once you pass the portal into adulthood (and age is NOT the deciding factor), there is NO turning back. You're an adult for the rest of your life.
Grow up.
But don't do it too much.
Enjoy life.
