There is troubling brewing in Bonanza City, New Mexico thanks to a brand new CBS
reality show called “Kid Nation. ” 40 children aged 8 to 15 were dropped off in
what had become an abandoned ghost town with “no parents and no rules“, as
explained by Executive Producer, Tom Forman. As seen in a current promo running
on CBS, for 40 days the children cooked their own meals, cleaned their own
outhouses, formed a government and ran their own businesses, all without adult
intervention or participation.
What kind of people think this show sounds like a good idea, people who don't have a job anymore. The show is being attacked by parents for what it claims amounted to abuse and neglect, apparently some kids got sick from drinking bleach from an unmarked bottle, and other was injured by grease while cooking. The network is also looking at trouble regarding if the show violated child labor laws in the state. Some of the children reportedly worked from sun up to sun down.
