CHANNEL 4 CHILD GENIUS...

[piggys]

...returns tomorrow night. How much do you love this show? or hate to love it? or indeed love to hate it? I am looking forward to it immensely. For all the wrong reasons of course the kids are ok, it's the nutty parents who make me cringe!

[piggys]

And I happen to know that one of the children on it goes to a London SS...

Indeed, she will be on tomorrow night and she is the dd of a regular forum member. DG

Why would anyone do this to their child? I would ban such shows - they are not entertainment but torture.

[Daogroupie]

I am 100% sure she would not be doing it if she did not want to. DG

[Peridot]

Oh no; not again!

[Guest55]

It's bad enough when adults subject themselves to reality TV but these programmes will exist for ever.

A child does not understand the implications of this.

Love the programme.Enjoy trying to predict who will be the winner.Thanks for the reminder will put the programmes on automatic record.

Every child is different and variety is the spice of life.Seeing the parents on the show makes me feel quite normal.

Now THAT is torture! I'm going to be playing guess which forum member the parent is.
