I wouldn't subject the young women to it. Why make the target of the messages have to be involved. Pay someone who knows what they are getting into and can quit whenever they feel like it.

How do you think these young women would appear on the show? This may come as a surprise, but despite the 3 letter name, MTV lacks widespread intelligence gathering capacity and definitely can’t read your text messages without your consent.

I’m fairly confident that anybody appearing on this show would have sent in an application to the company, and signed a non-indentured contract.

The better approach would be to have an actor read the messages and the reality show contestants are the mothers (and sons).

That being said, I'm still not watching it.

I could see it from influencer types and onlyfans, I'm sure they get plenty of awkward messages and also know how to handle it.
