Its not the first time this kind of issue became sickening on public television.
Do you remember the horribly public fight between playboy model Bridget Marks and Riverboat Tycoon John Aylsworth? Probably the most child-abusive television fodder I've ever seen.
The grandmother would yell "You're an evil man John Aylsworth" right in front of the cameras, with complete disregard for the fact that she was hurting/attacking her grandchildrens' father right in front of them. Some people are atrocious.
