The Maury Kids



Everytime I watch Maury I can't help but ask myself, "What are these kids going to think when they grow up and see these shows?" Seriously, what will they think? Or better yet do the "parents" that come on Maury even think about what they're setting these children up for? Imagine being a teenager or young adult, turning on the TV and boom! Mom and Dad are on the screen going at each other's throats like two wildcats over a dead bird. I'm sure this will not be one of those moments that gets discussed with pride over Thanksgiving dinner.
            Think about the "fathers" (I use that term loosely here) who are on these shows. Surely they've never once given any thought to the fact that if the kid is actually theirs, he or she may grow up to see the show and learn that he really wanted nothing to do with being the father. Talk about a slap in the face.
            The mothers (not all) are even worse. Imagine finding out that your mother had to test as many as 5 to 10 different men to find who fathered you! I know I would probably want to live under a rock if I saw my teenage mother on TV being called a "bitch", "slut", "whore", "slore" (slut + whore = slore), "hoe", "hoodrat", and "hoodbooger". (Yes, I actually once saw a guy call a girl a hoodbooger on Maury. It was actually pretty funny! lol) As we all know, schoolchildren can be especially cruel. And in this media driven world that we live in whether it be Facebook, Twitter, YouTube, emails, or whatever the media machine has invented by then, these kids are bound to see these clips. This would subject these poor children to a life full of torment and traumatic memories at the hands of their peers.
            It really makes one think. What will these "parents" say when (not if) the questions come? Will the sperm donors admit that they were immature little bitches afraid to take on a responsibility that they created? Will the egg carriers admit that they were totally devoid of good judgment and had a total lack of common sense? Or will they just take the easy route and blame each other? Sadly thats my bet. But it begs the question; What are these "parents" thinking if they are even thinking at all?

  1. I think I'm equally disturbed at the pool of possible fathers the mothers have to pick from. if one is proven to not be the father, the mother then thinks of three or four other people that have skeeted in her raw in that time period that could be the father. And PapaPimp Maury is there to provide testing and film it for our enjoyment. Such events weren't cause for entertainment a decade or two ago. How easily our minds are amused.

  2. I wonder if they ever think about how foolish they look. I mean why would a girl take a guy on TV knowing that she isn't 100% sure?
