it wasnt unethical enough, they should have released rattlesnakes on them and put up a 50 foot tall cement wall to keep them in
i thought that that was cool.
was it really in mexico?
wow.
i wish i was young enought to be on that show!
They werent actually left Alone...They had Camera Men and people following them so if something happened they were their....It was ok i think they should have had at least 1 Adult on Camera watching the kids to make sure it didnt get out of hand cause at times it did
i have a friend thats gonna be on that show next year her names binto and she said its really not that bad
no. it's stupid, and it is telling america how bad GWB is doing. And being honest i think his is doing a fine job. And it's saying how much better society would be if kids ruled the world.
It is actually quite ethical. there are always at least 20 camera crew ppl on site, and it is on a private property that the producers make you think is in the middle of some huge desert. the kids also applied for it, and their parents approved. It also makes a lot of sense, because if a kid wants to go home, they can. The crew did have plans for if something serious happened like a kid getting really hurt or a fire or something. it also teaches a lot of other kids that kids are the future and that adults never really give them a chance to prove themselves. it also teaches kids that if they work hard, they will be rewarded.
wow your right im sure they could legally leave them there alone with no interference in case of emergency. good job pointing that out.
i mean yo umust be kidding you really think they would leave kids all alone even if they didnt care about them the legal repurcussions wouldnt be worth it
Do you honestly believe that they had no adult supervision? I don't I can only imagine the number of people behind the scenes who really are around to keep track of these kids.
i think it was pretty cool actually,
all of them enjoyed it and some grew as people so i think thats a good thing, not a bad one.
omg why is everyone so freaking stupid. ITS IN NEW MEXICO! THAT A STATE IN AMERICA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! NEW mexico not mexico. NEW MEXICO. got it GOOD!
anyway there were adults there. they were medics and psychiatrists that they just dont show. so yea. and who cares anyway. they chose to expierence this so if it was unethical then they didnt have to do it.
