After shutting down my computer and doing some work outside in the front yard, some guy for A.D.T. came up with a glorious offer to bestow - even in real life you can't escape pop up ads!
The Bachelor and The Bachelorette are pretty stupid shows. I just keep hearing bad news from those shows. I've seen the stats and they are not good. Very few couples actually stay together. I mean, how are you supposed to fall in love while on a show that's structure is so artificial? Imagine you're trying to have a romantic dinner with someone, you're trying to have an intimate moment, meanwhile you've got a cameraman and camera crew standing next to you looking like this:
Plus it's almost like the Bacholers or Bacholerettes are obligated to fall in love with someone. The whole thing seems forced. Maybe that's why so many of these couples end up breaking up.
That's just silly. Of course parents shouldn't hurt/abuse their children, but how can all discipline be harmful? Some discipline is necessary. If children are just allowed to do whatever they want, they'll grow up with the mindset of "I can do whatever I want and no one can stop me!" and they could get into crime and other bad things.
