Sweet mother of gaud

I unfortunately watched a program called My Super Sweet 16 on MTV today. It should be called Super Spoiled 15 year old turning 16.
Like a lot of shows it has a formula.
1. Find super rich family with spoiled teenager who has got their way since day one.
2. Make sure spoiled teenager spends at least $1000 on nothing per day(it’s a plus if they have similar “friends”)
3. The party is organised by professional people to the demands of spoiled teenager which will cost approx $200k
4. The spoiled teenager should get a ridiculously expensive present from mommy and daddy e.g. 4×4
5. Everybody thinks the party/teenager is cool.
6. Roll credits.

I’m more astounded at the lack of respect for family (and worse.. themselves) than the amount of money wasted / thrown around.
We are all doomed if My Super Sweet 16 is a true reflection of teenagers.
