i don't like that it promotes plastic surgery/botox. whatever happened to "aging gracefully"? i understand giving a haircut and the dental work, but i believe they should be promoting how to take care of yourself and make yourself look 10 years younger naturally, or at least with a tighter budget

What Parents Need to Know
About 10 Years Younger
Parents need to know that this makeover show is based on the premise that people who look older than their real age should try to change their appearance. The criticism that participants get from strangers on the street can be hurtful, though it usually isn't cruel. Much of the discussion between the show's host and guests centers on self-esteem and body-image issues. These issues are handled carefully but fairly superficially.
