No matter how awful reality TV might be, it can always be defended as cheap, harmless fun. At least, "cheap fun:" Deadline reports that a recent study conducted by the Girl Scout Research Institute found that teen girls who watch a lot of reality programming "accept and expect a higher level of drama, aggression, and bullying in their own lives, and measure their worth primarily by their physical appearance." Hey parents, you know that PBS is free, right?

Um, yeah. Water is wet, too. We used to have real heroes. Now, we have people become famous because of sex tapes...and people wonder why our children are more aggressive / less sensitive / less hard-working. No, not all kids, but there IS a developing trend. Apparently, it's cool to give each other oral sex at 13 these days. I wonder where they get it? It's cool, though...kids being kids and all. Terrible.
