I hate this angle, involving children in an angle is a terrible idea. No matter how many times you try to explain to them that Daddy and uncle are just pretending it still doesn't mean those kids will be traumatized wastching their mother talk shit about their father as their stepfather beats the shit out of him. It's stupid, and negligible.

It's stupid, negligible and downright uncomfortable. Forgive my selfishness but I think you've nailed it from the kids perspective deezy, I have nothing to add and fully agree, but as a VIEWER this is just not pleasant to watch. I get that we, as wrestling fans have seen more violent things, but when you start messing in such a pschological format you've GOT to do it delicately and this wasn't. I'm not a dad, I'm 18, but watching that I felt like everything from each party was wrong. That tiny boy, laughing at the camera guys but then being shouted at by JJ to say the right thing?! Even if they cut and he gets all the cuddles he wants that's still confusing the poor kid. Much less at that age can have a lasting effect on their life.

They SHOULD be using the break up etc as an ANGLE (its pretty good heat) but they should NOT be featuring those children in the angle, no way.

I hate when wrestling companies use kids in storylines, it never works out well and it is so unneccesary. I find it uncomfortable to watch and I just change the channel. This is right up there on the level with the Eddie Guerrero/Rey Mysterio/I'm Your Papi storyline in terms of how wrong it is. They can use the storyline talking about the break-up/cheating etc but there is no need to bring the children into it it would be confusing enough for them living it and then having to be part of it makes it even worse.

I can only agree with what everyone has to say, this storyline makes me sick, and sad to be a wrestling fan in some ways. Sadly I am not suprised as this is Vince Russio we are talking about, this guy is as low as they come.

With everyone here. Kids should never be involved in storylines. They are too susceptible to psychological damage and it is really unnecessary in the first place.
