Super Sweet 16?....I think NOT

So after putting Jackson down for a nap I started channel surfing and stopped on MTV, Music Television?? Not so much....What happened to the day when MTV actually showed music videos?? I mean this is no new question, there are many many many people out there asking the same thing. Which brings me to question number 2.....When did only having a handful of VJs ever satisfy?? I keep seeing the same ones over and over again!! Bring back the MTV VJ search!! Bring back weird characters such as Downtown Julie Brown, or Jesse Camp.

Ok so I got a little distracted, the point of this whole thing this certain TV shows. The first being "Sweet 16" or "My Super Sweet 16" whatever it is truly called, it should be called " Super BRATS acting like jerks". These ungrateful little freaks are UNBELIEVABLE, well really not so much because seeing the parents of these creeps completely explains their behavior. It's not like the normal parent ( and by normal I mean, not loaded) doesn't want to provide things for our children, I mean seriously do I want to give my son things that I didn't have when I was growing up? Sure....do I want to make sure he doesn't have to "want"? Sure....More importantly I want him to grow up and know the meaning of having to work for things you want, I want him to know that manners and being polite work far better at getting you things than screaming that you hate your parents and slamming doors. I want my son to grow up having an appreciation for the things he does get, and have pride of ownership of those things.

I know that it will probably be a long time until he truly realizes the things his father and I have done and will do in the future to ensure that he has a good life, because it took me until having my own child to really know the struggles of my parents, and really appreciate their love.

So the reason I really started this blog is because of one episode of this super sleazy 16, one in where the princess daughter wants things that most adults never get in life, like a brand new BMW, and would NOT be happy if she received a used one...seriously?? More than likely she will mame or kill someone because she will be texting or talking on the phone while driving her "new" BMW....and as a parent WHY IN THE WORLD would you buy a 16 year old a brand new BMW?! Why would you spend that much money on a car that your entitled brat of a child can not appreciate it?

So lets set this scene up, the big "reveal" was about to happen, the brat standing there, they uncover what was going to be her new car...and ...TA DA!!! Its a huge big ugly white boat of a car...( of course I cheered on the parents and laughed my butt off) and brat girl storms off while her mom was screaming her name to come back, and can you believe the nerve of brat girl she actually said " LEAVE ME ALONE, ..F**** Off" ......wow........so she runs into this rented space where her party is going on....a friend runs in and gets her and tells her she has to come out now....SURPRISE there is the new BMW.....I wanted to vomit.

I don't want this blog to sound really nasty, because the bottom line is YES I am a little jealous of this 16 year old girl. I mean WHO wouldn't be? I want a new car, I want a huge lavish party for my birthday, I want my parents to just give me EVERYTHING I want BUT that isn't going to happen. Even after that is said, I am not unhappy with the things I do get, and have gotten. I am happy with what I CAN provide my son with, because lets face it there are so many families out there that can barely afford to feed their children.

I just hope that these kids realize how bad things can get, that maybe one day they won't get things handed to them on a silver platter, that there are people out there that don't have the same luxuries they do.......
