So, remember that Little Mermaid prequel where Ariel's jerk of a father decides to ban music and dancing from the sea? I didn't think such a thing was possible in real life until I saw that one television show about the family with eighteen kids. I finally watched it, and holy shit. The kids are not allowed to listen to music and they're not allowed to dance (literally, no dancing). Just. What is your life without MUSIC? They home schooled their kids, so they literally have no access to these things and have no other friends except for what their parents choose. :/ That's a damn shame.

If that wasn't worst enough, the father? Such a douchebag. I don't know why the family thinks he's such a great guy. He's a control freak. He talks for his wife most of the time, doesn't let his kids listen to the toys that play music in the toy store, he gets aggravated if his wife doesn't follow their supposed budget plan (translation: his budget plan), he calls their outings 'woman shopping' if the wife takes a look at more than one thing and complains about wanting to go home ... I don't know about you, but if my father said or did half this shit to my mom, she'd tell him to go home and continue shopping.

I'd laugh, but I'm too busy being absolutely appalled at how this family operates.

I've been told that they're like ridiculously Christian so I can see why he's a sexist prick.

That woman's vagina must be like Stargate.

They're so ridiculously Christian and he's so ridiculously sexist, it's disgusting. I'm all for having God and Jesus, or any spirituality, in your life, but not to the point where it controls everything. :\

Really? I called her vagina a clown call, but that's even better!

*car, not call. God, I wish I had a paid account again.

I watched the show about the pregnant man, but after reading this entry, I watched the first 5 minutes of "17 kids and counting" and was like "screw this crap."

I haven't seen the show about the pregnant man, but my mom watches the "17 kids and counting" because she likes watching trainwrecks. DX It's so shitty.

I watched that show once. I remember thinking the guy was an ass because he said that they don't believe in birth control so whenever he's up for it, they have sex. You know, there are natural forms of birth control >__>
But they can't listen to music? Seriously? But why!? What's wrong with music!? I think music helps you and in that family, the kids are going to need help. Those kids are going to be so messed up...

yarly, there are. And the poor woman, jeez. She has to be tired of giving birth to so many kids. She seems too timid to say anything about it. No woman in her right mind would want to give birth to another kid when it can be avoided!

I tried not to judge, since my dad had a lot of siblings because his mother was religious and didn't believe in birth control, but aadkakkdsal;fh, 18 KIDS! D:

The kids seem to be ... happy, I guess, but I can NEVER imagine a life without music; I constantly have my iPod with me wherever I go. You need music that isn't Christian rock! :/ It's a shame that they really don't know any better.

O_o What an asshole. They probably think he's a great guy because they're sheltered and haven't encountered examples of a great father.

[samatethecookie.livejournal.com]

Yeah, I think that's more of the case. He really comes across to me as an asshole, and he's the main reason why they're so sheltered. :\
