What in the HELL is wrong with Maury Povich?
I am at home today ( Mental health day :) ) and I flipping through the daytime channels..... Maury is on. The show topic? SURPRISE,SURPRISE.... who's the father? Followed by the DNA results.

He always does shows like this..... a few months ago, I was at home ill and it was the same damn show topic!!!

WTF?? Are there just not alot of topics to talk about?

3. I think it's Maurys mission in life.. to determine the father
of all children born out of wedlock.. else, he get off on parading promicious young girls across his stage for shits and giggles.

6. I felt my face get hot
when one of the guests was a 17 year old girl who had given birth to a girl at age 13. The "father" was 16 years old at the time.

The DNA proved that he was NOT the father, and the young lady was terribly upest and I am sure embarrased...... 13? Preganant? And you don't know who the father is? And you are on a fucking television show?

Maurt should be ashamed of himself.

16. Makes me think it was an adult male
like a stepdad or something.
A 10 year old got pregnant in this state-she claimed it was a 10 year boy-which he vehemently denied. The DNA proved it the pround poppa to be-her 28 year old step dad, who said he never...

5. I would say. I think they test up to 20 men for some of these
girls, and still can't figure out who the father is.

9. It might be entertaining if it wasn't for the little kids who're exploited
on his trashy show!....That's child abuse, in my opinion!

11. The parent's shouldn't BE parents.

7. I think his shows are rife with child abuse!
If he wants to put grownups on display, that's one thing, but he always has the babies or children of the "contestants" on his show too....for the whole world to see....These children are being exploited!....Where are the "Christians" who call for obscene shows to be boycotted?....Abusing little children like this is about as obscene as you can get IMO!....:puke:

10. I admit that I find myself watching
his show even though I know I'll need a shower afterwards. He will chase down a hysterical woman and then ask her why she is upset, why are you upset. Oh cuz you found out this tenth guy is not the father? Oh dear, will we will test more for you if you want to come back again.

I have made my son watch this show though. I explained to him that the person paying the highest price is the baby and that sex is a very serious thing.
