Anyone watch Private Practice?

[trillionaire]

If anyone is watching, and I the only one having a BIG problem with the storyline of Naomi''s daughter???

WHAT in the world is going on???? This has been bothering me for days, am I the only one???

Any moms out there that are tuning in?

I do watch the show, but I am not a mom yet.

I think the parental reactions are a bit "fashion farward" for real life experiences. To be honest I am more annoyed with the adult story lines as of late, than I am with the daughter and Dink.

I''m most annoyed that they gave him that nickname. I cringe every time they say it. I''m not a mom but I''d be devastated if that happened to my daughter. I can''t imagine giving permission for my daughter to marry at the age of 15. I''m surprised that Sam''s going along with it.

I love the show, but I''d love for a happy storyline to come along. It''s been SO heavy all season, and it''s a bit draining.

+1.

I think Naomi is simply a nutty in the head.
She reminds me of Sarah Palin.

this makes me totally insane... Of course it''s the daughter''s decision if she wishes to have the baby, but why on earth would you let her get married??? Wouldn''t any reasonable parent say, ''hey, if you guys are still serious about this when you are 18, then you can get married when you can legally decide to do so on your own?'' I don''t understand why the situation was presented as if they had no other options! Maybe I have been watching too much Teen mom, I dunno. Perhaps they should have their daughter call Bristol Pain... or ask Levi how that tattoo is working out...

I love this show, but this plot line is pretty ridiculous. I agree that the show has gotten too heavy this season.

I watch PP and Greys religiously and I''m SO AGAINST the current storyline in PP!!! Drives.Me.BONKERS! I don''t know any parent who would consent to their 15 year old child getting married, regardless of pregnancy. And didn''t it seem like their daughter went from 7 to 15 overnight?

I used to LOVE the show. I don''t know, it''s rapidly circling the drain right now.

The daughter being pregnant annoys the crap out of me. None of their reactions strike me as being genuine.

BUT that is less annoying to me then Addison and Sam together. Can the girl get some MORALS??? Does she have to sleep with her best friend''s EX-HUSBAND? I mean she hasn''t yet, but even the KISS was too much for me. It''s so wrong. There are things you just do not do. I really hope they don''t go there. Last season with the pregnant-patient''s husband was the limit of what I could stand from Addison.

I thought Addison and Sam kissed an episode or two ago and decided there was no chemistry? I was confused the other night when they started going at it.

And that's why I have given up on this show

I now watch Project Runway "live" instead of recording it!

 

[OUpearlgirl]

The Sam/Addison thing is just wrong. Why can''t the writers give her a regular love interest? Geez!

I used to really love this show but I''m not positive how much longer I can keep watching it if something doesn''t change, fast.

 

[Bella_mezzo]

it''s getting really messed up. DH and I usually watch it, but I think we may be about to stop...

 

[trillionaire]

15 yr olds getting married should be illegal. Even if the parents are stupid enough to agree. IMO, it is tantamount to child abuse.

 

[OUpearlgirl]

I kept thinking she would faint or something down the aisle. I just couldn''t believe it was ACTUALLY going to happen.

Also, does it bother anyone else that Dink''s mom was the same actress who played the criminal on Grey''s Anatomy that was in prison for murder? I know, I know, it''s TV. But the two shows are connected, you''d think they could find another woman to play the part.

May I ask why getting married at age 15 is less acceptable to some than being a mother at 15?

To me, if they must be ranked, being a mother at age of 15 is much MORE consequential than getting married at 15. Being a mother is a HUGE responsibility towards a new fragile life, whereas being a wife is volunteering to commit to another person of your age.

Maybe it is because I am not a mother that I don''t get why getting married at age 15 is so bad????
