Memes: A 13-Year-Old Girl On The Dr. Phil Show

Firstly, young girls who watch the shows might want to be pregnant in order to be famous. In her Opposing Viewpoints article, Kroll said, “This created a media frenzy. These girls became celebrities in what seemed to be overnight”. Some girls might have a gullible misconception about the teen parents on the shows. They do not know that they have to handle the hardships on taking care of a child along with having the “fame and fortune” lifestyle. Additionally, young girls might think it is alright to be treated unfairly because it is being televised. The cameras are capturing moments that contains domestic

Catherine Birnie specifically, a famous killer, lived with her very controlling and abusive grandparents. One of the most famous female serial killers, Aileen Wuornos, also lived with her violent grandfather as her mother deserted her at a very young age. These unhealthy families consisted of a lot of physical and physiological abuse. Unfortunately, it is very common for parental or guardian abuse to be copied by a daughter or son. Many of these woman turned to alcohol, drugs, and sex to cope with these issues, which destroyed their future.

By not letting their children attend and participate in play dates, sleepovers, school plays and other things that help develop their social skills they are setting their children up for failure. Children need to be around people in order to develop the right and wrong way to treat people. When they aren’t allowed that right, in some cases, it can cause behavior problems which then strip away some of their children’s opportunities. When all of this comes into play it can and most of the time will result in one way or

Many things that showed their poor parenting skills were their abuse towards their kids, the fact that their kids felt they had to elicit themselves away from their parents, and that they didn’t set a good example

In nearly every family-oriented sitcom, one of the main troubles of the parents is, in fact, parenting. For example, in the hit 90’s TV show Full House, Danny Tanner is a single father of three, left to be a lone parent by the death of his wife. And yet he has two other men helping him raise his children, as being an only parent is incredibly difficult. Being a good parental figure is a challenge for every individual who attempts it.

We have all been a spectator at some point. A witness to the obnoxious, overbearing father screaming at his son when he strikes out swinging. Or the arrogant, back-stabbing mother pressuring her daughter to come out on top at all costs. We have caught a glimpse of the look in their eyes. The look of determination backed by a selfish need to live vicariously through their child. Their competitiveness is an obsession, causing them to glaze over the well being of their child with their eye only on the prize. The parent is driven by narcissism, damaging their child in the process. The child often grows up with low self-esteem with a boatload of psychological issues. There have been dozens of studies done on the damage that occurs on a child. But,

There is a history of child neglect and lack of supervision because the parents violent behavior, but by reading OR-KIDS it looks like Kimberly Carrier mental issues is the origin of all DVs

Studies have shown that the occurrence of this misbehavior is commonly found in single parent homes as opposed to two parent homes. In the article, “Pros and Cons in Single-Parent Families” it states, “Multiple sources, both scientific and empirical, state children of single-parent families have lower test scores and high school dropout rates than children from two-parent families” (“Pros and Cons” 7). Having low test scores and dropping out are properties that belong to a child with poor behavior who also makes poor decisions. Children who have abnormal home lives are usually the ones to have poor behavior. Living in a single parent home is one of the abnormal circumstances that a child can face. Imagine now that on top of living in a single parent home a child also is adopted. Imagine the questions the child would have, the possible guilt that they may face. Why were they put up for adoption? Is there something wrong with them? Are they a burden to their adoptive parents? All of these questions can influence another consequence that a child may face when growing up in a single parent home, low self

We’ve all heard the saying the apple never falls to far from the tree, in one sense or another. Well, this is a label, as well as everything we are shown through media portrayal. As the Learning Theory: The Modern Media and imitation. For example we have all seen the show “Family Guy” or similar shows of both cartoon-like and with actual people. The dad was an imbecile and a racist. The mom was a lemon with a child at 16, the daughter was your typical nerd who couldn’t follow in her mom’s footsteps for she was made to feel more worthless than a dried piece of gum on a concrete path during a hot July in Texas. The eldest son was an even bigger imbecile than the father, and the child was a hypersexual heteroflexible psychopathic-sociopath with

This film focuses the crucial relationships between peers, parents, moral development, and high risk behavior. One common theme throughout Havoc, was the lack of parental involvement and supervision among Emily’s and Allison’s parents. These parents were

For some reasons toxic family members tend to live in their own distorted and toxic version of reality. For example, you clean the dishes, you sweep the floor, and you make your bed. You do all of these chores five days a week. But according to your parents and your siblings, you don't lift a figner around the house. In most dysfunctional families children tend to learn to doubt their own intuition and emotional reactions as a result of growing up in such an environment.

They are allowed too much freedom, and are not held accountable for their mistakes. This often results in children who are unhappy and lack self-control. They are more likely to disregard authority and tend to have problems in school. (Coon & Mitterer, 2010, p. 92)The reason I’ve described these parenting styles is to allow you to judge for yourself, which parenting style do you believe Jim Bob and Michelle Duggar practice? They are on a reality show titled “19 and Counting,” which airs on TLC. The “19” refers to the number of children they now have. After viewing a few episodes, I’ve come to the conclusion that these parents seem to use the authoritative parenting style. Their children are taught by example through firm and consistent parenting. They show respect for one another through generosity and kindness, and seem to have good decision-making skills. These children are well-mannered and cooperative. None seem to be lacking in self-esteem and, despite some skepticism, they all seem to have their needs met.In contrast, the reality show “Super Nanny,” which airs on the STYLE network, has a nanny working with parents that are seeking help. They are looking for the techniques needed to discipline their children. The parenting styles of these couples tend to lean toward overly permissive. Often these children are aggressive, uninvolved, and combative. They lack focus and act out for attention.Thankfully, professionals are working with

Bad behavior in children may be due to other factors. Examples may be socioeconomic status and home life, which can only feed bad behavior due to violent games, and this can sometimes cause children

Children copy what is around them. If the parent has low self esteem than the child will mirror this. A parent only has to be "good enough". There is no perfect.

Kids see celebrities in the news every day and mimic what they do, thinking that they should be like them. But that is wrong. Most celebrities don’t know what they are doing in their life because they have a hard time telling reality from fantasy.
