Reality Shows

I know I have been away for awhile but it does not mean I ran out of things to say. I have a lot of making up to do. Between work, school and taking care of home I had to take a break but I am back and have plenty of subjects to talk about. The first I am is attacking is reality shows, now I am a reality fanatic and love them, but I come to realize a lot of issues with some of them. Teen moms is one I loved looking at and understood the concept behind it was to keep young girls from wanting to get pregnant as well as young boys. Now the problem I have with is that after these shows were aired for a few seasons the teenagers were driving nicer vehicles than me and they did not have jobs. Some of the brought houses during the season as well, so what it looked like they were showing me is that if you get pregnant young there is a chance of you getting a reality show and making money without having to work. It made me kind of sick to my stomach because I could not believe what I was seeing and wondered if anyone else felt this way. When my daughter started her senior year of school this year, she said about twenty girls in her senior class came back to school pregnant. It made me wonder if any of these young people watched the teen mom shows over the summer and thought it was a good idea to get pregnant to make quick easy money. What I wanted to know is why did these shows not have this teenagers sign a contract to say they would not spend the money until after the shows had ended. I know this sounds crazy not to be able to spend money you made but limit to not buying houses or cadillac cars until it has ended show other teenagers would not think it so great to do this so they can get on television and get paid.
