Man, they're still doing that sort of thing, huh? I think it was Sartorialist who, some time a few years ago, basically posted only older men in scarves and thin, beautiful young women in sundresses and claimed he was all about fashion and nothing else. Street style blogs really don't look for the most creative,…

I recall a few years ago, the street style photographers took a lot of pictures of women in white, pillow-case style dresses and wrote copy that implied that these were genius fashion choices and so incredibly stylish and creative, without noticing that all of these dresses looked basically the same and that the women…

I'm actually really happy that Paris kept her pig after it grew to be so big, and she's still giving it a hug.

I actually agree with you fully. I also am NOT going to watch this show, but I agree with all of your impressions. The kids do seem close with each other.

The philosophy sounds really exhausting and stressful, I agree, and I've worked in homes where the parents are like that but it's not uncomfortable for me to do my work. Most families are sort of weird in one way or another, and it usually doesn't interfere with my work with the kids. I personally think that the…

Yes of course I'm aware that there are lots of unhappy people in the world; that is not my issue. My entire life is basically spending time with people. I'm also aware that these are just photos and that this is a stupid program that I'm never going to watch. I also know that, from personal experience of working…

OMG the Valencia kids are so cute! They look like such a fun bunch, I agree. And so does the Masterson-Horn family. I think that the Brooks girls are just going for style and chic posing if you ask me.

You and your brother sound awesome. Fight the power, guys!

I found one of them!

I LOVE this comment. This is some really good commonsense insight. I especially love the point that you make about even if a child decides to reject some of the parents' principles, that doesn't mean the parents did a bad job. So true!

Hypno-frog!

You know, that's a very good point you raise about the kids not feeling like they are allowed to control their own minds. I can't imagine that the kids would feel good about that.

Mid-scoff or mid-harrumph, it's hard to tell.

You have some very good points there! Yeah, I don't really see the benefit, either.

Ye olde surly teenagers perhaps. I just know I don't want to go work in their home, that's all.

I work with kids and teens in their own homes, usually with their other family members around, and I always know what makes me feel nervous. There's awkward and happy and there's awkward and unhappy. I mean, the older Adler sister looks so sweet and friendly to me and not really bugged by her kooky parents or her…

Bwah-ha-ha-ha! I love the analysis!

See, I didn't really get such a bad vibe from the Brooks. I felt like the photographer asked them to pose that way, with the mom looming above the daughters. The daughters are clearly very stylish, fashion-forward young ladies and have model-esque poses and facial expressions. Look how fierce sister in yellow is…

OK, I know that some doctors have said that a full year of breast feeding as opposed to a few months does have some health benefits for the baby, but I can't imagine that a decade of breast feeding would really have any extra health benefits. What is the point? I agree with you. She is weird.

Yeah, I don't think kids are on board for the TV show at all, I agree with you there. But the sister especially doesn't look happy in general to me.
