Daddy's Spoiled Little Girl

http://www.we.tv/article?CID=key%3D663%26tzOffset%3D0

Yes, I've watched it before. It's a Grade A, first class train wreck. I don't believe that these people would agree to appearing on a show like this, but they do.

I don't have this channel (atleast I don't think I do? I don't go past channel 70) but whatever woman I marry better be strrrrrrong because all I know is that if I have daughter, she'll have me wrapped around her finger and she can buy whatever she wants. Purses, makeup, expensive clothes, cars. Anything. She'll be daddys little princess. Is it bad that I already know I'll be like this :( ?

That's great, except the fathers - all successful business men - look like absolute chumps.

Some of these girls are well into their 20s, have college degrees, and still run to Daddy.

I wonder what kind of guy will marry these girls...?

You gotta be kidding. Most guys.

I don't think you've seen some of the girls on this show.

hey I am in my 30s and I am a daddy's girl still...

I don't have WE so I don't know about these women, but I am proud to say that I am a Daddy's...all of my sister's are...that is the type of father that we have....

edited to add:

Ok I just saw some of the promos....Us [insert surname] girls ARE NOT this bad....We did get almost everything we wanted (within means) if we were good and they could afford it....

You know, I started this thread to chat about the show, not what kind of girl you'd like to marry or what kind of father you had.

I really don't care.

So if you don't watch this show, then please don't post here!

Capiche?

:D

Ok Seriously, How old is Molly?

She can't be in her 20s!!!

IMO she is probably going on 40...and she's at least 34!!

I understand that people can be daddy's girl and that dad's want the best for their daughter (sheesh i'm a daddy's girl) but come on, there has to be a point---an age limit---or something where it just becomes a little overkill. Case in point--MOLLY!!

I love the show, because it is very real, and I have known a number of "spoiled girls." Have I got stories!

My first experience was with a really good friend in college. Her father (we'll call him "Mr. X") was of Warner Brothers fame... so you can imagine the money he had.

He was considered a "whale" which is what they call a multi-million dollar gambler. Each year, Mr. X (he was a widower) would take his daughter and her choice of friend to Las Vegas. The casino would comp everything for ten days.

And yes.. one year I went with my friend. The only condition-- (requested by Mr. X) was that we were not allowed to watch him gamble.

We got free airfare, limo at the airport to meet us... all meals at all of the best restaurants comped, and we stayed at the "Presidential Suite". It had everything including a huge jacuzzi tub with a chandelier over it. The place was huge and gorgeous... and a bit "over the top."

A giant floral arrangement was there to greet us-- with expensive flowers flown in from Hawaii. This, from the VP of the hotel. We also had a fully stocked refrigerator with everything you can imagine. We had "staff" at our beck and call 24 hours a day. Anything we wanted, we got.

Every morning, my friend and I would go down to the office of the VP, and he would say, "OK girls, what would you like to do today?"

He would arrange VIP tickets (front row seats with a special entrance-- no waiting behind red velvet ropes with "the little people") to all of the best shows in Las Vegas. He provided us our choice of a car to drive to Hoover Dam. He arranged spa treatments... you name it.

Oh.. and yes... we snuck up on her father one day playing craps. My friend actually had a rather minor medical emergency -- and we saw he had more than 100-thousand dollars in chips on the table. No wonder we got the royal treatment!

I had the most amazing time. It was a blast. My friend? Well, she just yawned through most of it.

I think the thing is that she was born into incredible wealth and doesn't appreciate it. People who come from nothing (like Oprah) and then make it big, DO appreciate it and have happier lives.

My friend and I live in different states now, but we still keep in touch. She's a very nice person, but doesn't really have the spark or drive to do anything, because she HAS everything. The problem is-- it's all about the journey to success... and she missed that. She doesn't have the experience of making it on her own and of accomplishing things. Everything was handed to her, and she's bored with her life.

It's kind of like in sports. You can go down to the trophy store and buy yourself a six foot trophy. But what would it mean? If you had to work really hard for it and train six hours a day... a five inch trophy would mean so much more.

Because, PMMama, my friend once said to me, "I'm just sponging off my father. You're lucky, at least you did everything yourself."

Sorry my post "irked" you.

I hope one day your friend gets "cut off"

I was "cut-off" in a way...it wasn't a real rude awakening becuase I knew it was coming....but it was a blow....

and you then appreciate everything you did have and everything you acquire now....its a character building thing and a live lesson.....

these are good things

oh and I will comment on anything I like and will relate it to my real-life to make a comparison...

thank you

:rolleyes:

I'm a little in love with Bobby now. :) I consider myself a daddy's girl and I know I wouldn't understand if I had a daughter that didn't get the same treatment from her daddy.

You're right. These daddys on the show-- like my friend's daddy, are not doing their daughters any favors. They're teaching their children that love equals money and material items. How sad for them. How will they ever expect to find "real love?" Instead, they're both looking for "sugar daddy's" to marry.

There's nothing wrong with a family giving their children nice things-- but there is a way to do it.

These daddys are also making their children dependent.

I have another friend whose father owns three car dealerships-- and is in a similar situation (although not quite as rich). She complains because her mother uses money to control her. If she doesn't do exactly what mommy wants, she's afraid she'll be cut off.

I asked her why she doesn't just do her own thing and make her own way... and she said, "But how could I continue my payments on my Mercedes?" Now mind you, my friend is in her late 30's! Mommy and daddy are paying her mortgage, taxes, utilities. car payments... everything. I honestly don't think she would know how to survive without her parents paying for everything.

So, she has pretty much made a deal with the devil. She puts up with mommy controlling her life in exchange for money.

Now let's compare that with yet another friend of mine whose father is a big entertainment attorney with lots and $'s. (Again, not on the scale as my friend who I went to Las Vegas with, but still definately in the million dollar catagory.)

She has always had nice things growing up, but she also had chores to do and got an allowance. That allowance was not in the hundreds of dollars per week-- but rather in the scale that most of us had growing up.

She enjoyed lovely family vacations to Europe with her family, had a gorgeous bedroom suite (actually it was more of a "wing" of the house-- she moved out a long time ago, but I've seen it when I go with her to visit her family-- complete with spiral staircase and her own upper loft!) and got very nice gifts on her birthday and Christmas.. but her parents didn't "spoil" her in the way these girls are being spoiled on the TV show. She worked for money at home and even had a job in high school at a Burger place.

She's self sufficient, has worked her butt off in college, and, like her dad... is now an attorney. She makes her own way, and does her own investing. She knows the value of a dollar, and seems a lot happier than my two other friends because she has the pride of cashing a check and knowing that she earned it.

rich or poor...........all life is suffering

Is she the one who got Daddy to throw her a going-away party (she was moving to LA to be an actress)?

And then decided NOT to go away??

Yeah!!

She had that AWFUL hairdo that made it look like her hair-line was receeding, and she got botox (her dad even joked that the dog versace gets botox too).

Some of these dads, like the orange dude and maybe the one with the plump country-western singer daughter, just gave off this squicky incest vibe and it gave me the willies.

LOL@ "the orange dude."

OMG, do you think he just got orange for the show, or is he always like that?

How can anyone in the business world take him seriously when he looks like that!?

I don't know which I like to make fun of more - the daughters or the fathers!!!!!!
