American English

[edit]

This article is about an American television show and should use American English. In the U.S., people do not say someone has a "boy called Tom". They are much more likely to say "son" and simply identify him as "Tom" as in "Bill has a son, Tom." - SummerPhDv2.0 21:51, 25 October 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Apparently, someone is a bit confused. Let me clarify. America's Supernanny is an American TV show: it was made to air in the United States. As a result, Wikipedia uses American English. In American English, a child with the name "Timmy" is not "a child called Timmy". Instead the child is "Timmy".
(For those reading outside of the country called the United States: The show called America's Supernanny is an American TV show: it was made to air in the country called the United States. As a result, the website called Wikipedia uses the variation of the language called English called American English. In the variation called American English, a young person called a child with the descriptor called a name of "Timmy" is not "a child called Timmy". Instead the person called a child is "Timmy". - SummerPhDv2.0 15:06, 17 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Amy and Mandy

[edit]

While it is awesome that Amy and Mandy are best friends, I see no reason to include this. I mean, my wife and I are also best friends, but the fact that we are a couple is usually more relevant to people, as is the case with Amy and Mandy. - SummerPhDv2.0 19:30, 6 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]
