Am I the only one who gets annoyed when I hear of celebs having kids as single mums like ...well all of 'em, then you see them partying on down as if they're still single, isn't it any wonder youngsters think that kids won't tie them down. Also programs like Eastenders and Coronation Street when the characters just dump off the kid with the neighbours when they want to pop down Rovers, because as you all know getting a baby sitter isn't as easy as that!

I never really thought about this much but no you've mentioned it..... yes, it IS annoying. We all need our 'me' time but these clebs seems to have more than their fair share dont they. As far as Eastenders and other soaps go, I suppose having children in tow all the time would spoil some of the storylines, however, a bit of realism wouldnt hurt.On saying all that though, I am a single mum and I would love some time to myself, I dont have neighbours who will take my son at the drop of a hat, nor can I employ staff to look after him. He is MY son and I am responsible for him, nobody else, but it would still be nice to have half a day shopping from time to time on my own.

It gives women, particularly younger ones, the idea that having a baby is like buying a puppy, cuddly and pretty but you can pass them onto someone else when they're not convenient. I thought the storyline in Eastender, quite a while ago, was excellent though. Not a big fan, but I remember this punk girl arrived with a baby, no money, no help and really struggled. We need more storylines like that.

Frank Zappa's little ones did not have any success. they're said as: Ahmet Emuukha Rodan Zappa Diva Muffin skinny Zappa Dweezil Zappa Moon Unit Zappa and clearly Bob Geldof's little ones: Fifi Trixibelle Geldof Peaches Honeyblossom Michelle Charlotte Angel Vanessa Geldof Little Pixie Geldof Heavenly Hiraani Tiger Lily Hutchence (although route this one replaced into biologically Geldof's daughter)

yeah when they get on TV talking about how great it is having kids knowing that they have a full time nanny at home and kitchen staff, maids. They have no idea what it is like to be a parent. Look at all of the pics of Angelina no pics with her and the new baby or Katie Holmes (until recently) you never saw Suri and why? They were at home with the nanny.

Well i know many women that arent celebs and they do the same thing with their kids execpt they leave em with grandma and grandpa its not just celebs that do it. Go to the club on friday and saturday night and you will see the same women out drinking and partying and most of them have kids at home. I love my kids so it doesnt bother me if i have to stay at home with them so i could care less what the celebs are doing.

Yeah, that is annoying to create the misconception that finding a babysitter is as easy as slicing pie. But, remember 2 things (a) Celebrities can get what we "mere mortals" can't easier in most cases. and (b) Most tv., unless it specifies otherwise, is supposed to be a pleasant escape. Ahhh, Candid! (from World Literature).

i know what u mean , in the soaps they just dump the kids on next door neighbour or a family member that just lives either 2doors away or just down the road. When u know yourself ur own family dont live next door or down the road, it is very hard to find a babysitter.

i so agree!!
that really winds me up to as i am a single mum and i hardly ever go out alone as it is hard to get a baby sitter.
kate moss never has her child with her as many others dont.
they pay over priced nannys to bring up there children.
they think the single parent life is easy because they are never looking after there own children they are always out clubbing or shopping.
if they could live in my shoes for one day they would realise its bloody hard and maybe step into reality more.

Let's face it we don't really no all about celebrity lifes even if we think we do. They could be brilliant mothers but we wouldn't no because all we see are the photos of them partying. They need time off maybe thats their one night off of the year but we are lead to believe they r like that every night. Also i don't take soaps seriously.

its not just english soaps..neighbours have been taking kids in for years..not real neighbours of course cos most of them wouldnt be capable of looking after a plant
