reality tv, honey...

There is Teen moms and Dance Moms.

There is Real housewives of many places 

and there is swamp people.

There is the Duggers and Little People

then there is, in a category of their own....

HONEY BOO BOO

yep, I watch it, and yes, I even laugh at them.

Sometimes I roll my eyes thinking they have gone a 

little too far but all in all,

they are the more "real life" reality show of all the ones out there.

They get a lot of flack in the media,

I hear on serous radio so many saying they should

be removed from TV or the parents should be reported

for child abuse, but lets be honest,

I know more people like the honey booboo family 

than I do the Housewives of all places.

Why is it when those rich ladies get richer by 

showing their spending ways and cat fights,

people watch and there is little talk of removing it from the air,

but when a poor redneck family cashes in on their

piece of the reality TV pie, so many want to criticize.

Having been born and raised in a small community known as

down the bayou or rather, DTB,

I know this family. Well, not this one in particular

but some just as strange and bazaar, some as uneducated as the

redneckonize clan here. I know, as I get older, that there 

are many different people that makes this world spin and

I believe honey boo boo is loved, loved more than

some children I have seen as a school nurse.

Why should they not cash in on the wave of reality TV.

Secretly, we can admit, many of our own families will

do some of the things they do on camera.

Difference is, when we pass gas loudly to shock the family,

there is not a tv camera to capture the memory.

I say, let them get their money and let them be able

to afford things they had not been able to do 

prior to the extra attention from reality Tv.

I watch, not religiously but I watch enough

to know it's okay to laugh and be entertained by a family

that reminds me of many families I have met in my life.
