I'm rapidly going off Hugo. His parents seem to let him get away with being so rude.

SauceForTheGander · 18/06/2013 21:18

My DS would be bollocked for speaking to me like that.

ShipwreckedAndComatose · 18/06/2013 21:18

Me too!

'I thought you studied English!' Bah!

annh · 18/06/2013 21:18

Why is Hugo allowed to be so appallingly rude? Why do his parents not pull him up on it? Surely genius doesn't automatically equal obnoxious? Or have they tried and given up because parenting him is so unremittingly exhausting?

ll31 · 18/06/2013 21:19

I think it's quite wrong of those parents to be exposing their children like this-what is the benefit to thechikd? I can't see any benefit.

Wonder how much they're making and if it's worth it. Children are clearly amazing but what help is being on tv to them?

msrisotto · 18/06/2013 21:20

What on earth is the point of this test? Memorising playing cards? Pointless!

chickensaladagain · 18/06/2013 21:20

Can't believe how rude Hugo is

fashionlover76 · 18/06/2013 21:20

Being a child genius is no excuse to be bloody rude to parents. Hugh's parents seem to find his rudeness quite endearing and are indulging his bad manners. They are doing him no favours at all...what good is intelligence if a person is totally obnoxious?

chickensaladagain · 18/06/2013 21:22

Since she was a child???
She is a child!

Lavenderloves · 18/06/2013 21:23

Hugo needs a firm hand.

MrsBucketxx · 18/06/2013 21:23

I thought hugo was bad last week, but this child has no manners

rosa marie seems sweet, although she us a bit tough on herself.

MrsBucketxx · 18/06/2013 21:24

hugo is like sheldon from big bang.

chickensaladagain · 18/06/2013 21:24

Why is she laughing at him?

Just get him told!

PatFenis · 18/06/2013 21:25

I can't believe how Hugo's parents just shrug and give a wry smile when he is so incredibly rude to them! He is going to struggle terribly socially when he gets older if they don't rein in that obnoxious attitude sharpish.

Future politician perhaps

annh · 18/06/2013 21:25

What must it be like to be in the same class at Hugo at school? Or be the unfortunate student who sits next to him?!

Sunnymeg · 18/06/2013 21:26

Hugo is only interested in learning what he wants to learn. There's a word for that.

ShipwreckedAndComatose · 18/06/2013 21:26

At last! Discipline!

I'm liking Leo's dad, who is exasperated and probably fed-up but who hasn't forgotten he is the adult here!

ll31 · 18/06/2013 21:29

I wonder how healthy it is that they're constantly reminded of how special and genius they are.

msrisotto · 18/06/2013 21:29

Yes, well done Leo's dad!

PatFenis · 18/06/2013 21:31

Yes shipwrecked I was wondering when one of the parents would tell their little darling to pipe down!

I'm watching about 10 minutes behind everyone else...so forgive any x posts please Smile

RalphGnu · 18/06/2013 21:34

Oh my word, Leo's joke went down like a cup of cold sick, didn't it?!
