Wost Role Models

On TV there are plenty of bad role models for kids. Parents are almost always busy, so they don't always have the time to sit down and watch what their own children watch on the wonderful, yet sinister box called a TV. I have my own experience on watching bad role models on TV. After a couple of hours of doing my own research on my TV, I have made a list of some of the worst role models on TV.

Alexandria DeBerry: Ant Farm: She is perpetuates the stereotype of a dumb blonde
Stefanie Scott: Ant Farm: Her character is a model of what is generally thought of as the mean, manipulative, heartless cheer captain.
Elizabeth Gillies: Victorious: She plays a mean, goth bully that is mean to all her boyfriend's friends.
Shane Harper: Good Luck Charlie: His character makes it seem like deceiving and betraying a girlfriend/boyfriend is acceptable  and will not hurt anyone.
Jerry Trainor: iCarly: He is an irresponsible guardian who does not see the importance and seriousness having to take care of his sister.  
Jennette McCurdy: iCarly: She is a bully that has no respect for her elders or any type of authority figure.

My list can go on, but my list is comprised of my own opinions. If you do not agree with me, then you can also go to: http://www.commonsensemedia.org/new/10-worst-tv-role-models-of-2012

On the list that I linked, i disagree in the part that says that Squidward is a bad role model. I disagree because Squidward is just annoyed by Spongebob. I am pretty sure that we all agree that if there was a Spongebob in our lives we would all be cranky. Someone that should be on this list but is not is another person from Shake it UP. His name is Adam Irogoyen. His character portrays to be a guy who sells thing thta he gets from "a guy". What is that suppose to mean. Does he get his stuff illegally? We are now living in the 21 century, this stuff apparently seems normal to the government since thy don't take these shows off TV. It is sad to say that these are the role models of the kids in the 21 century. If the TV shows don't change we will have a messed up future a head of us.
