Personally I am in between on the argument on weather or not reality television is influencing society today. But I am leaning toward the side that says it is. Lets look at teen mom for instance. TEEN MOM. Look at the title! A whole shows about teenagers that are mothers. Back in the old days, teenagers where not even thinking about sex, pregnancy was not even in the question.
But these days today's society, Teenage girls are looking to get pregnant. They think they are ready, and grown enough to have children. Mainly because they are looking at these shows and seeing that theses teenagers are getting so much fame, and screen time just by having a baby as a teenagers. So the message that today's teenage girls are getting is that its cool to have a baby while they are teens. It's could make them famous. NOOOOOOO!!! That should not be the case. If they are going to have a show about teenagers getting pregnant have it be showing all the struggles and encourage young girls to wait until they have their life in order and can support themselves and another human being .
I wish my daughter would even consider having a baby while she is in her teens, I would go to jail for child abuse! Reality television maybe a good source of entertainment but people today are taking it as real life. Its not! Its just people with big heads doing stuff they don't usually do, they are doing it for the cameras and the FAME! Lets take Love and Hip Hop for example, I can bet half of the people on there have never been in a fight their whole life, but once the cameras hit them, they turn into totally different people and wants to fight everything that walks. They act this way to be able to be on the next season. We need to start treating reality television like it really is, TELEVISION! NOT REAL LIFE!

ReplyDeleteAll of those fights are scripted. The networks know that fights draw people to watch their show, so if you have a big fight at the end of a episode then people will watch next weeks episode to see what happens.
