In the wake of adolescents like Kid Nation's Taylor and the rich little bitches on My Super Sweet 16, it's becoming increasingly popular for network executives to mine children for drama, as if it's somehow more exciting (WRONG! It's depressing!) when kids act like their idiotic adult counterparts. This week, Project Runway jumped on the bandwagon and rolled a group of high schoolers down the catwalk.
