Still Americans are so regulated, harassed and stressed by life in general that a little venting about a faked reality show can't really do any harm. Almost all of our rights in this country have been taken away, that's why so many people get offended when you state that we cannot judge, have opinions, etc. In Houston, the Mayor is subpoenaing the sermons and communications of pastors, so even freedom of religion is under threat. So please don't tell people what they should or shouldn't communicate. Bad speech is what needs protection, not going along with public opinion.Biff Schmuckatellinoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8808060991534955915.post-19673815096380621732014-10-19T08:44:28.586-04:002014-10-19T08:44:28.586-04:00That's a valid point. However, it really wasn...That's a valid point. However, it really wasn't a good strategy to talk about divorce on the show. It would have been better to keep that to yourself because the show portrays the husband as a hard working martyr and you as basically the bad guy. That's how these shows operate, there always has to be a bad guy or girl in the mix. If one chooses to air their dirty laundry in public, it shouldn't come as a surprise that a lot of unkind criticism will come your way. I advise you to quit reading these forums and try to get on with your life. Most people realize that a lot of reality TV is faked. We tend to vent and let off steam because it's hard to look at the people portrayed in these shows as genuine. I don't think most people if they saw you all in real life would give you a hard time. Finally, it would probably be better to sell the restaurant, and have the husband get a regular job if possible (depending on his skill sets).Biff Schmuckatellinoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8808060991534955915.post-6194465842991630982014-10-19T08:37:46.810-04:002014-10-19T08:37:46.810-04:00I think you meant "if you don't have anyt...I think you meant "if you don't have anything good to say, keep quiet" In general, that is a good maxim to live by, but in our pressure filled, messed up society, people need to vent a little to let off steam and in general, reality tv is faked so it isn't the same as going up to people in real life and giving them a hard time about their problems. It's the same as goofing on the Kardashians, etc.Biff Schmuckatellinoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8808060991534955915.post-67956068564363915722014-10-19T08:34:55.348-04:002014-10-19T08:34:55.348-04:00probably sooner than that.

Few ever succeed in the long run. I think the wife stated that she works at another job, the husband should probably sell the restaurant and get gainful employment depending on his skill sets (what ever they may be)Biff Schmuckatellinoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8808060991534955915.post-10359831792582870292014-10-19T08:32:44.349-04:002014-10-19T08:32:44.349-04:00You have a very good point.
