We've been making entertainment spectacles out of lousy parenting for at least as long as I've been alive. As a kid, I was intrigued and compelled by the TV program Supernanny. For those of you living under a rock, Supernanny follows a British nanny named Jo, who helps families with poorly behaved children. Sometimes, the kids are out of control for no easily detectable reason, but often, it's just a case of bad parenting. So many parents featured on the show have something like six kids and can't for the life of them understand why their lives are so chaotic. I liked the show as a kid because it reaffirmed my notion that I wasn't such a bad kid after all. It's kind of like Caillou in that way; when you watch other kids on TV misbehave, you realize that you could be so much worse. If you currently feel that way about watching parents who are worse than you, these wild parenting posts will fill you up.
