I have just switched the TV on and it's gone straight onto something which appears to be featuring human Barbie dolls.

It's on channel 5. I have no idea why ANYONE would want to look like these people.

It's about sad fuck parents who claim to be "hotter" than their son or daughter. It's like a telly version of Take a Break.

It's hilarious. Cringing at the Mums/Dads out on the pull together.

Sorry, with their kids! Not together.

I am open mouthed at it. Dd came in and said the first pair were in a magazine at the home of a relative. Body dysmorphia family being taken advantage of.

One of them described herself as being 'Crazy like that'. Don't think she's a Mumsnetters.

It's awful! I can't turn away though!

That first mum/daughter barbie combo were just hideous though. So much plastic and probably highly flammable!

Oh this woman is horrible. Why is she insisting on getting out of the car when her 14 year old daughter is mortified?

The creepy body building Dad and his in training son are giving me the boak!
Him hanging around the dark corner of the club encouraging his son to 'get in there'. Just wrong!!!!

I kind of feel sorry for some of them. The one who was saying 'I'm not ashamed to say I turn heads'. It's awful because she's obviously not turning heads for the reason she thinks she is.

Wow! Daughter prostituting herself online to pay for her and her mum's surgery.

As much as she's earning a small fortune, that money's not going to keep rolling in forever and then what on earth will they live on? It's really sad.

I've just put it on.I don't know what the Mum and Daughter see when they look in the mirror.I've never understood it with shows like this how they can't see what so many off us see when we look at them.

The look is so far from normal.

mint it was awful the way his dad took the first opportunity to rip his shirt off at the model agency and then sort of gloated about his body being better than his sons afterwards.

I do wonder if they actually care about their kids. It seems they are in so much competition with their kids youth and can't accept the fact that their youth is gone now.

I just can't imagine the scenario where I'm out clubbing with my teenage dd and she's having to pull 19 year old blokes off me and then we have a screaming match in the street afterwards. No. I'll be at home fretting if she's not in when she says she is and wondering if I'm going to get the phone call to go and pick her and her mates up. As long as I promise not to quiz them about lads or anything like that :o
