these moocher shows are getting on my last nerves. I don't post very often, but today I have to speak my opinion. These young men in my opinion are not moochers, but rather confused young men trying to figure out who they are and what they want to do in the future and no one is trying to help them out. I think that as a society, we look down on those who sink instead of swim. Would the Lord Jesus Christ give up on those who are struggling? NO and neither should we.  

  

Yes, there is a point where we have to put our foot down and say enough is enough, but she should start showing a little compassion here and there.  

  

Even these young men's own families are turning on them and that is a shame. 

I kindly disagree.  One can (and should) spend his entire life growing and figuring out who he is and trying different lifestyles and careers until the shoe finally fits, if ever.  This takes initiative, which is precisely what Derek from today's show lacks.  He cannot figure anything out living with parents who pay for his four-wheeler and four cats.  Derek is a 22-year-old man, not a 16-year-old boy.

Oh give me a break.  The parents are admitting they are raising moochers and thieves and spoiled rotten brats.  Yes compassion, for those who actually have to make a change.

LOL!! Are you serious? How can they figure out who they are and what they want when they sit on their butts and do absolutely nothing? How can you say no one is trying to help them out? Did we watch the same show, cuz these guys didn't have to do ANYTHING for themselves, they were "helped out" in every way shape and form. Helped to the point that they are lazy spoiled brats! STRUGGLING!!????? Neither one of them looked like they were struggling to me, just content to sponge off of everyone else and not accomplish a thing. I don't get how you think their families are turning on them, they are helping them to be responsible, active, self-sufficient adults by not giving them everything they ask for. Do you by any chance live with your parents and not have a job? Just wondering.
