Nowadays, even variety shows about children can cause conflicts.

In the parent-child variety show "Dad is in Charge" series which is very popular on Weibo and Douzi, Kuang Sheng, the father of the very popular cute kid Kuang Sanxi, is suspected to have his reputation ruined and was torn apart by his ex-girlfriend Xiao Wenwen, and many of his dark histories were also dug up.

Now that Kuang Sheng has cleared his Weibo, netizens are still furious and have even transferred their anger to Sanxi and Sanxi's mother.

This is also one of the most terrible endings for amateurs participating in child variety shows.

Does a textbook dad really exist?

The "Dad is in Charge" series is an observational reality show that focuses on men's full-time parenting. The show aims to increase the fertility desire of women of childbearing age by encouraging men to actively share parenting responsibilities. Therefore, the amateur dads invited to the show must either have full skill buffs or have textbook-level performance in raising children.

The reason why Kuang Sheng is so popular is that he has both of these qualities - not only does he love his daughter dearly, but he also has super hands-on skills.

A bunch of furniture in the house, such as cabinets, coffee tables, and rag racks, were made by myself. I even took care of the ceiling circuits myself, and the decoration costs saved were over 200,000 yuan.

He loves to do things with his hands, and patiently took his daughter to make a doghouse for the new dog. He didn't get angry when Sanxi made trouble, but played with him. He even sewed his daughter's Elsa skirt with his own hands.

She is also gentle and patient in taking care of her daughter on a daily basis.

In "The Story of Rose", there is a plot where Xiao Taichu spilled milk, and Huang Yimei gently said, "It's okay, go wash it." In "Dad is in Charge", the situation escalated. When Sanxi spilled a cup of milk on a laptop, Kuang Sheng's first reaction was to comfort his daughter, and then he smiled and tried to save the computer.

His daughter was afraid of the dark, so Kuang Sheng asked gently and learned that she was afraid of "witches". He then handmade a "witch light and shadow show" to comfort his daughter and turn fear into innocence.

This father who is emotionally stable and good at doing handicrafts with his children has hit the growth pain points of our generation of viewers.

Many netizens described Kuang Sheng's family as "living a dream life". With long curly hair and a little sister Sanxi who always wears a puffy skirt, they are as happy as a princess in a castle...

But in the essay written by Kuang Sheng’s ex-girlfriend, he seemed to have a different personality:

He used cold violence, secretly took away 100,000 yuan from the online store they jointly operated, ran away to Southeast Asia, got another girl pregnant, and ran away again. His ex-girlfriend asked him to return the items, and the mobile phone and camera worth thousands of yuan were mailed back without protection, resulting in damage... His ex-girlfriend summed it up in one sentence: "He has a really bad character."

According to the short essay written by his ex-girlfriend, more than a little bit of Kuang Sheng’s dark history was revealed.

At the end of last year, some netizens discovered that the so-called original models in the online store he ran were suspected of plagiarizing foreign products, and he also had a dispute over the "co-branded clothing" with Mario, another cute baby family in "Dad is in the Home".

Sanxi and Mario were very good playmates in the show. Sanxi once said to Mario innocently, "From now on, you be the husband and I will be the wife." Now that the adults have made such a fuss, I wonder if their beautiful childhood memories will become a "shadow."

Some of Kuang Sheng’s past remarks were also dug up and reinterpreted.

At present, Kuang Sheng has cleared his Weibo account and also made relevant explanations and accounts for controversies such as joint names and plagiarism through videos, but there are still many viewers who question the warmth and happiness that their family had previously presented.

Including the story that his wife San San once told on the show that "there were only 3,000 yuan left after the caesarean section." She originally intended it as proof of the couple's sharing hardships, but now it has become fodder for "love brain."

Doll Variety Show, a Cyber ​​Utopia

It is not the first time that an amateur guest on the show Dad Is In Charge has had a scandal on social media. In the second season, Xi Anna was also on the hot search list because of negative terms that caused controversy. However, Xi Anna's performance in the show itself was controversial, so the scandal was just that and it did not constitute a huge contrast.

This time, Kuang Sheng's performance in the program was remarkable. He was emotionally stable, patient and meticulous. Many parenting bloggers specifically praised him as a model for fathers to take care of their children.

As a super cute angel baby, his daughter Sanxi has become a favorite of the show's audience, which in turn has enhanced Kuang Sheng's image as a good father and earned him a lot of "passerby fans".

Pure amateurs have no house to live in, but Kuang Sheng is now a person who "has a house".

"Having a house" means a lot of things. Not only does it mean that one has become famous and can earn income through traffic, but it also means that one is treated differently on social media. Whether it is Xi Anna or Kuang Sheng, they represent the same type of people: "remote suburban stars" who have just entered the entertainment industry, suddenly have a house, and do not have an agency or a public relations team to help them manage, and are often the most likely to run into problems.

Let’s start with Kuang Sheng.Is his patience and meticulousness in front of the camera completely real?

I think the reality show camera itself is a big filter. Children are of course innocent and cute, but it is not surprising that the various characteristics displayed by parents in variety shows have some performance elements.

Even on an ordinary parent-child day in kindergarten, parents will be more patient when facing teachers and parents of classmates than at home. What's more, on a reality show, being faced with seven or eight cameras can, in Pangbo's words, "purify the soul."

What Kuang Sheng is like in real life is another matter. In the show, he is an excellent father who raises an angel baby.Because the audience wants to see such a "utopian" story and wants to see a father who is emotionally stable and never gets angry.

Therefore, in a sense, this house is bound to collapse, because its foundation is illusory. In addition, during the transition period from "ordinary person to celebrity", it is easy to become overinflated and make quick money, so the probability of house collapse in the suburbs is extremely high.

Follow-up to the baby show: Can the internet celebrity baby return to the safe house?

Let’s talk about "Dad is in Charge" again. After Kuang Sheng’s reputation collapsed due to his personal past and business disputes, the attacks on social media were not only focused on him, but also spread to Sanxi and his mother, with many unwarranted attacks and insults.

Many friends feel sorry for Sanxi and think, “What does this have to do with the baby?” and “We must protect Sanxi.” However, can the baby really return to the safe house?

Countless experiences tell us that this is difficult.

Just as we all know that the dispute between Li Xiaolu and Jia Nailiang has nothing to do with Tianxin, but public opinion has never let Tianxin go, and there will always be people making sarcastic comments on Tianxin’s social media platforms.

If celebrity families are like this, how can ordinary people be an exception? There are some people on the Internet who cannot get pleasure from "utopia", but can get pleasure from attacking, and they will never let their children go...

Take the group of kids in “Where Are We Going, Dad?” ten years ago. Sendie was called “pretentious”, Belle was called “scheming”, Duoduo was called “precocious and pretending to be adults”, and no child could satisfy all the audiences.

After the show is over, it is not easy for children and parents to tear off these malicious labels and grow up freely.

Later, the "child limit order" issued by the State Administration of Radio, Film and Television for the second generation of stars actually played a very good protective role for them, reducing their exposure and thus reducing the pressure of public opinion.

I originally thought that children in amateur variety shows might not face as much pressure as children of celebrities, but now it seems thatIt is a high-risk activity for children, especially young children, to appear on reality shows.

In addition to being criticized and labeled for their performance on the show, any disturbance outside the show, whether it is inappropriate behavior by themselves or their parents, will be repeatedly criticized under the blessing of cyber moral cleanliness.

For Sanxi, it is certainly unfair to be attacked because of his father's Weibo post 10 years ago, but as long as he participates in variety shows, this situation cannot be completely avoided.

It doesn’t mean that it will be bad for cute kids’ growth if they participate in variety shows, but parents still need to think clearly about whether they are willing and able to relieve the pressure of exposure for their children and ensure their healthy growth.

It just happened to be during the Olympics. To give an example that we are all familiar with, the much-anticipated opening ceremony in 2008 pushed Lin Miaoke and Yang Peiyi, a pair of young actors, into the spotlight. However, their subsequent growth experiences were quite different. Because of her parents' "restraint" of fame and fortune, Yang Peiyi had a more relaxed and balanced growth environment.

Sister E’s conclusion:

It's not just variety shows, but also child models, little singers, little actors, and all kinds of baby-themed tracks are the same. Because the kids have become popular, they think about maximizing profits and converting the "public domain traffic" in the show into "private domain traffic" to the maximum extent, so as to make more money outside the show. There are even many parents who let their kids give up studying and become internet celebrities.

In this case, there is naturally no way to talk about protecting the physical and mental health of children.

The "child models" that once caused great controversy were reported by reporters as young children were coerced and bribed by their parents to shoot for more than 8 hours without considering the children's endurance. Now, if you open Xiaohongshu, you can find that this generation of parents is still keen to let their children join the ranks of child models.

Having guardianship does not mean that you are entitled to guardianship. This is a very realistic problem.

In contrast, the example of Wang Zixuan, the class monitor in "First Grade", who quietly became a primary school bully and was admitted to the science experimental class of Changjun Middle School, requires parents to be sober and restrained, and truly plan for the future of their children.

Signing a child with an MCN agency to become an internet celebrity is at best a low-level operation. However, allowing children to concentrate on learning and growing after learning to face the camera, and having a broader vision and more choices, is a high-level operation.
