I don;t have kids, but i have 2 neices and have worked at an elementary school and i have to agree that kids like it when they are told what to do. I think it has something to do with the fact that they want to seem grown up and make choices, but when they are given too much and they don't know what to do or how to act. And so having someone, such as a parent, tell them what to do makes them feel comfortable cause then they know how to act.


And i do think that many of those shows are fake, like oh kids act like totalk screw ups and then act like the nanny taught you have to behave so we can get a nice vacation or a brand new car. I saw one (don;t know which ) but the family got like $50,000. Wow, i would act like a total screw up for a week if i could get that much money.
