Really?

Diamond earrings, LV diaper bags, D&G baby clothes.I just do not get Platinum Babies.Sure, I figure Donald Trump's kids all got that kind of stuff.  I just do not see the point on having a show about it.






What differentiates an average host and a great host is anticipating unexpressed needs and wants of their guests.  Just because the want/need is not expressed, doesn't mean it wouldn't be appreciated. 

Re: Really?

  • Diamond earrings? For a baby?

  • Is that a spin off of Platinum Weddings?  Really the kids won't know if they are spitting up on Target clothes or D&G clothes.  If I ever get round to winning the lottery I don't think I could bring myself to waste money on silly things like that.
  • It makes no sense.

    And betrothed, I'm disgusted with most of the comments that you have posted. I don't think I've ever read such judgmental comments in my life. I'm so lucky that the girls I speak to on theknot are nothing like you...I would've never come on here for ADVICE if I would've encountered a big a bitch as you. I genuinely feel awful for your children or your future children, and I think it would be irresponsible of YOU not to invest in their future therapy sessions starting now. Because trust me when I tell you honey, they're gonna need it. ~jcaruncho2010

  • I agree. I am making it a point to NOT watch that show.
  • Not even sure why I was watching it.   I was on the phone with my friend's MIL.  She wants to come down from Miami for the baby shower.  It just happen to come on. The shower I'm throwing will not include a $3000 cake.

  • It's totally ok. I got sucked into a Supernanny marathon the other night. It did curb my desire to have kids though.

  • Meanwhile there are babies right here in our own country that are not getting proper nutrition or healthcare.  I don't get the PB show either.  Heck, I don't even get the whole Platinum Weddings thing.  IMO - waste of money for one day of fun.

  • salt - Isn't funny how we get sucked into certain  TV shows.   We should have a poll on the subject.

  • If you were to start one, I would answer it. That was not the first time I spent an ENTIRE AFTERNOON watching a show.
