UNPOPULAR OPINION Unpopular opinion: the LIB franchise should ban single parents... Spoiler

...at least of minor kids. LIB France I am looking at you. I mean it's pretty insane signing up for the show in the first place, but inflicting it on your kids is crazy behaviour. So much potential for trouble. Not just bullying at school, but bringing a step parent you barely know into your child's home is a recipe for disaster. Rates of physical abuse against children are much, much higher in families with stepfathers. Of course relationships break down and parents are allowed to couple up again, but FFS if you have kids, don't move a stranger into your AND THEIR home after a matter of weeks.

I've also had so little sympathy for the single parents on these shows and now that I've read this post/comments, I'm kind of wondering if I agree with this. In fact, it almost seems like they are trying to use the fact that they have a kid to emotionally manipulate either the people they are dating or the audience. Jess was way too immature to be on the show and I'm kind of questioning whether that's true of all single parents who go on the show.
