Last night ABC premiered this new reality show ... Brat Camp ... has anyone seen it??? what did you guys think of it?
I have watched the first hour till now ... I need to finsh to watch it later tonight ... but it did look really interesting to see these kids starting in this situation and looking forward to "get better" ... its kinda hard to watch how these kids treat their parents, their adoptive parents and one tried killing his twin brother ... hopefully this show will make them realize that they do not need to be like "a brat" every day of their lives ...
