Christina Chan on 05 Feb 11I think this article is very true...whatever you see on television influences what you do.. kids & teen encounter advertisements, TV, magazines, & other graphic images daily in their lives & if you get the wrong message it might lead you to believe in the worst. Jersey Shore may want you to think Snooki is badass but she is literally trying to be a bad role model for young girls...who for example might watch the Hannah Montanna show which is geared for 14 & younger aged girls. Kids should watch show that they understand & are geared toward their age group.

Christina Chan on 05 Feb 11Jersey Shore reminds me of the TV show Gossip Girl...basically it's about an elite group of friends from the Upper East Side of Manhattan, New York. They're privileged & they have access to the hottest clubs, suites, fashion, schools, restaurants, etc. The show hints & suggests sex, drugs, & alcohol related heavy topics. The show covers these in adult shows like Sex & the City...and some adults even think it's not appropriate for teens to watch even though they claim it's their most favorite TV show...and of course they go ahead and watch it.
