The story behind this picture is a father of this 5 year old child has been taking him to the gym since the age of 2. They live in Romania and are very popular because this child is very “fit”. This child recently stood on his hands with a medicine ball between his legs and “walked” for 33 feet to obtain a Guinness World Record. (The link to this crazy article is at the bottom of the blog)
However many people feel that this child’s father is exploiting him and is very much similar to our case(s) of child exploitation here in America; examples: ever popular Balloon Boy, and the lovely family on TLC Jon and Kate Plus 8. All these cases of child being used for money, for me, is just wrong. To me it seems like people are basically “pimping” their children out for the next quick dollar. Does anyone realize the impact this is having on our future generations and how good values and morals seem to have been thrown out the window. What ever happened to working hard and making something of yourself. With our society wrapped up in all these “reality shows” and people watching how these average people (with writers writing interesting story lines) go from average to stardom. I heard this morning that reality star, Khloe Kardashian (Lamar Odom’s new bride) is a bigger star than actress Jennifer Aniston, because how much publicity she gets. In what crazy world is someone famous for doing NOTHING AT ALL, clearly ours!
The new cases of children being exploited in reality shows, and on the news should really open up people’s eyes and help them realize our world is headed in a bad direction. Sadly with people watching these crazy “reality” shows, new and weird cases with continue to pop up. I wish people would realize that these “reality” are all made up and if they were “reality” nobody would be filming them, because sadly with out writers people’s lives can be very mundane. My question is when are people going to stop be interested in tv land “reality” and start to be real?
