While I'm grateful that link is actually from the Onion, it's probably closer to reality than I'd like to think.

I'd actually argue that being on that show was the least of the kids' problems. This news just compounded that. With or without the show they're still stuck with a real shitbag of a mother.

The best case scenario for them now would be for HoneyBooBoo to sue for emancipation and go live with her sister while there's still some TV money left. I don't know anything abouot the show other than a few clips, but a do know that a parent who not only doesn't kill a person who throat-fucked their 8 year old, but waits for them to get out of prison to date them again is a parent not to be trusted.

I haven't watched this show, either.  Until not so long ago I actually thought Honey Boo Boo was the mother.  D'oh!  But, yeah, this is sick stuff.

The fact there is a 3 page thread about this show is all that is wrong with America.

The mom actually did a smart thing with the money they earned so the kids will be fine financially.

And that is the exact emotional response reality TV makers are trying to evoke. The only way to win is not to play.  awesome, for real

I was sort of shocked they only made $20k per episode. Sort of a shitty deal for 4 seasons if their total take was only $1M gross, split across the family.

Literally more money than they would have ever seen doing ANYTHING else. These are not people with futures or marketable skills. They are literal trash and deserve nothing less than to be a disease vector for something new and lethal.

Yeah the numbers are still off compared to ratings. Despite the fact they are rednecks. They would have been better off getting an agent.

It's the big reason network bosses like reality show TV -- it's cheaper to produce, and you don't have stars to pay either.

That would be because douchebags want money AND fame.

White trash just wants fame. They have no concept of money, otherwise they wouldn't - generation after generation - continue being white trash.

I thought you would soften with age.  I really did.  And then you got married and I thought, uh oh... he's well on his way to mellow.  Goodbye f13!  Was I ever wrong.  I think, if it's possible, you are even more intolerant and cynical than ever.  Don't ever change.   Heart

You watch some Here Comes Honey Boo Boo and see if they deserve tolerance. Or Jersey Shore. Or Swamp People. Or any number of tv shows that center around the absolute bottom-feeding assholes of America.

What's there to "soften" about my attitude towards this shit? Them (and their viewers) are literally the reason America doesn't deserve nice things.

Ok. I admit this is a train wreck that I cant look away from. I know it says more about me than them. But here it is...

http://gawker.com/mama-junes-daughter-mama-spent-my-trust-fund-on-child-1654581513

Quote
Anna "Chickadee" Cardwell, 20, sat down with E! News last night to discuss the reports that her mother has rekindled her romance with the man who molested Anna when she was eight years old. Anna says Mama June "can be very selfish. She ain't tell me she love me in a long time."

Mama June has denied that she's dating convicted child molester Mark McDaniel, but the two have been photographed together with Mama June's nine-year-old daughter Honey Boo Boo in recent months. Anna says Honey Boo Boo and her sisters are in danger if McDaniel's around. She also adds that photos of Mama June and her recent ex, Honey Boo Boo's dad Sugar Bear, are just for show. "Mama is basically using Sugar Bear," she says. "She's using him to cover her ass."

You can watch a video of the interview here.

If all that's not upsetting enough, Anna suspects that Mama June is siphoning money—her children's money, specifically—to McDaniel. Anna explains:

Quote
    Apparently all us girls have trust funds that have over $30,000 in them [based on the money made from Here Comes Honey Boo Boo on TLC]. Well I called the bank and said, "How much is in it?" $17.90. I have a feeling Mama used that money to buy him a car and buy him what he wanted.

Mama June denied that claim to E! News: "I have never brought a car for him and all her money is there, beside the money I have given her to live on—$400 every month and pay her $475 each month for cell phone bills for the last two years. That's the only money I have taken out of there."

Quote
Honey Boo Boo shared a hotel bed with her sister's childhood molester and Mama June, her uncle has claimed.

Lee 'Uncle Poodle' Thompson told the National Enquirer that he saw his nine-year-old niece Honey Boo Boo, whose real name is Alana Thompson, cuddling her mother and Mark McDaniel during a trip to Cherokee, North Carolina in September.

McDaniel, 53, is accused of repeatedly molesting Honey Boo Boo's older sister Anna 'Chickadee' Cardwell, now 20, when she was just eight.

McDaniel, then Mama June's boyfriend, served 10 years behind bars and was released in March, and he has been rumored to be seeing the 'Here Comes Honey Boo Boo' matriarch again.

trust fund
 $30,000

 headache

$30,000 counts as a trust fund but $475 is a reasonable monthly cell phone bill? What the fuck am I reading? If the kids' "trust funds" have/had 30k in them and they were getting 20K an episode that's a lot of fucking money that disappeared into thin air.
