* The fact that children at this age are incredibly impressionable and are witnessing adults - their own parents - using threats, tantrums, lies, and many other underhanded methods to achieve very petty goals. In essence, these children are directly being taught that this kind of behavior is not only perfectly okay, it's also much more effective. This is especially worrying because none of this is staged ([[IncrediblyLamePun so to speak]]), so these children really are getting the message that if you want something, even a little bit, throw tantrums and death threats around like pillows until you get it. The fact that the show itself blatantly ''rewards'' this doesn't help at all.

** So why didn't Sammi-Jo's father take custody of her to get her out of that environment? He may well have tried to fight for custody and failed: Many states will come down on the mother's side in custody battles, flying directly in the face of all evidence and logic. A father trying to get full custody is facing an uphill battle, which probably makes anything related to Sammi-Jo (or any girls with similar mothers) incredibly heartbreaking to watch.
