My UO: I don't think Teen Mom and 16 & Pregnant should be watched or aired. I know they don't have an easy life but their lives are made easier by these shows as well as it promotes this.

I think the shows actually complicate their lives more. There is probably a push for more drama when they are taping and that is just wrong. I also don't think it promotes really Teen Pregnancy. I would be very surprised to find any teenage girls that were solely inspired by the show to get pregnant.

UO? I wish certain things that are standard with pets were also available to humans.
Such as:
a. Frontline for humans. We live in an area where Lyme Disease is an enormous problem and can cause serious long term health problems. I would love to be able to apply something that is similar to Frontline so I don't have to constantly be checking myself and my husband for ticks. Found one on MH this week and he wasn't even in the woods or in tall grass.
b. Weight loss kibble. I would totally stick to a weight loss diet if I just scooped out my meal and ate that. No thinking. No prep. Done.
c. Euthanasia. I think people of sound mind who have a terminal illness should be allowed to have a dignified death at the time of their choosing.
Euthenasia =\= death with dignity/aid in dying/physician-assisted suicide. Definitely avoid that term!

Right?! I'm actually reading an article about Teen Mom right now.

I just put it down as a cultural thing. No worries. That's why I ask.
ETA: To some people in the Caribbean it's one step up from calling someone a bitch.
yikes!! Who knew! I'm also southern and think nothing of those terms! "Hun" is also used a lot around here.
My mom ran into something like this when my parents moved from Vancouver, B.C. to Birmingham, AL in 1973.
She ended up teaching art at an all black high school. Being a Canadian, she didn't have much history with the civil rights movement or race relations - students were just students to her. One day early on she said, "ok boys, let's clean up." One of the students walked up to her and politely informed her that she should not call them "boys." He explained that it was derogatory. She didn't mean it in that way of course, so no one was upset. But it's sad the way that simple words can get hijacked.
Apparently this is now in the top 100 for girls... and that's not even counting all the god-awful alternate spellings, listed as "Paislee, Paisleigh, Paisli, Paislie, Paisly, Payslee, Paysley, Paysli, Payslie, Paysly" ugghhghhghgh.

I feel really stupid, but how is "boys" derogatory? I am honestly ignorant on this one.

It has been used in history, toward black men to demean or make them feel as though they are less than.
