Notice to the Media

Could someone please tell the media to quit using the following two phrases when discussing celebrity children:

1. genetic lottery winner

2. poopie-pantsed tykes

because really, besides the second being a little more graphic than anything I want to read in celebrity gossip they are both just demeaning and rude. Yes, their parents are beautiful and rich and seem to have the perfect lives, but these kids are people too and just hearing these degrading labels thrown about in every other article saddens me. I admit to reading the celebrity gossip and enjoy it to a certain extent, however, it feels like a line is being crossed when the paparazzi and celebrity writers start preying on innocent children. So could you just lay of the rude monikers already?
