Is 4-Year-Old Bob Irwin Set To Host His Own Show?

Good looking, sweet little family. Steve would be very proud of Terri for carrying on for them despite her own grief. I wish them all the best.

WOW! have it been 2 years already?!?!

Honestly I think she is using the kids a little, sorry but thats the feeling I get here. They are waay to young to be playing with life, wich is what they are doing when they are wrestling with crocodiles.

He actually said "i'm mister independence"???

oh well sorry! I still think she is only using her kids for publicity and money.

I used to watch Steve on TV all the time, and trust me, these kids are not just being used. They learned from their father to be very independent, to care very much about animals, and even when she was very young Bindi was already starting to form the idea that she wanted to do exactly what her father did. It doesn't surprise me at all that Bob is turning out exactly like him.

And 4-year-olds repeat what anyone says about them, so if Bob goes around hearing people say he's "Mr. Independence" you bet he's gonna repeat it.

My first reaction to hearing of the kids watching his DVDs everyday was, "wow, that's a little odd."

But after giving it some thought, those kids are probably very well-adjusted because they have access to all those wonderful living memories. In America, we tend to sweep grief under the carpet and get back on the horse as soon as possible. That's not healthy, and that type of attitude has helped therapists get mighty rich. From everything I've read about this family, they faced their grief head-on and have moved on with life in a healthy, united way. Their loss was absolutely devastating (although not unexpected considering his line of work), so if the kids want to see their Dad on a tv screen every morning, who are any of us to say they shouldn't? And let's face it, Bob would not have any memory of his dad unless he watched those videos.

This is just more irresponsible celebrity parenting. I guess she wants to make a dash for more cash while people still remember who her husband was. But seriously, parading out a 4 year old for a television show....absolutely revolting. I cannot imagine how parents can exploit their children for ANY amount of money. But the list of famous child exploitation artists gets longer by the day: Larry Birkhead, Matthew McConaughey, Lynne Spears, Jamie Lynne Spears (a second generation exploiter), Dina Lohan etc. all making a sinister living off of their own children. Something is terribly wrong with this trend.
