'Life of Ryan' is a show that fits into MTV's line-up of 'reality' shows. The show follows Ryan, a 17 year old skateboarder as he competes and lives out his life. I admit, when it's on TV, I find myself watching it- but mostly for comic relief. In the handful of episodes that I've watched, Ryan has complained, whined, and defied his parents. Like many kids in America, Ryan has divorced parents- but rather than become a role model for his younger brothers on how to deal with the situation, he plays dramatics whenever his clash in the slightest. There hasn't been an episode yet where Ryan hasn't mentioned his parents divorce at least three times. I understand it's a big deal, but the way he talks about and complains about it makes it into a bigger deal than it is. Next, he whines about him not being able to find a girl for him, but it's clear that the only reason he can't is because of his infatuation of Taylor, his best friend's girlfriend. Ryan- you're rich, you have a loving family, and you two brothers that look up to you. Stop complaining about the little things. There are people in life a lot worse off than you.
