Celebrities as Role Models?

People say sports figures, actors and actresses and singers are supposed to be role models. Really? Says who? It stuns me when a parent gets upset over when a celebrity does wrong and they say "I thought s/he was supposed to be a role model." These celebrities doesn't owe your child or children a thing. The celebrities jobs are to entertain and they get paid.

The parents are the one who brought the child into the world and it is their job to raise them the way they want. It is the parent's responsibility. The parents are supposed to be the role models for their children. The mother, father, grandmother, grandfather and a host of other family members are supposed to be role models. If you think the likes of Snoop Dogg, Britney Spears, Jessica Simpson, Paris Hilton and Beyonce are supposed to be role models for your children then something is wrong with you.
