Parents looking to pressure their sons and daughters to working in the family business just gained an ally in their quest: Donald Trump!
New York Magazine reports Trump Productions is currently pitching ‘Keep It in the Family’ to various broadcast and cable networks, and simply because The Donald is attached to it, we’re bound to come across it one night (possibly this year?) when we’re halfway deep into a bag of Lays.
‘Keep It in the Family’ has nothing to do with incest – but rather, the next best thing, which is family feuding! The show would focus on mothers and fathers who own their own businesses and are working hard to convince their kids, who have their own careers, to follow in their footsteps (but really, it’s so the ‘rentals can retire early and go crochet something or go shoot something in a field and skin it themselves).
This doesn’t sound like it’d be a reality show, unless the kids make their parents complete unreasonably unpleasant tasks before they agree to begin work in the family business. If that were the case, then one episode of this show would be better than an entire “Fear Factor” marathon. But alternatively, we could just be talking about a documentary-type thing, which might not as exciting to digest…but would certainly capitalize on the rare and magnificent instances of when a kid has something a parent wants.
