In the second grade, I went to Career Day at Mountainview Elementary dressed as a preacher. What a little weirdo, I was. A weirdo who wanted to be like her dad, because here\u2019s a confession: like Taylor, Megan, Tori and Kolby of Lifetime\u2019s original docu-series,<\/a>Preachers\u2019 Daughters<\/a>, I\u2019m a preacher\u2019s daughter too. I\u2019m not Catholic and it\u2019s certainly nothing I\u2019m ashamed of, so technically that\u2019s a pretty weak confession on my part. But being a preacher\u2019s kid has a certain stigma around it: you\u2019re either a wild child or those\u00a0creepy kids in<\/a> Mean Girls<\/a>. The fact that I grew up as the daughter of a Baptist preacher inTexas is not particularly helpful to my \u201cnot crazy, I promise\u201d case. It doesn\u2019t seem to count that my parents were some of the least strict of all my friends and completely open minded to us making our own decisions regarding religion and morality. When asked what your father does, responding, \u201cHe\u2019s a Baptist pastor, but he\u2019s totally cool, and I turned out way normal,\u201d doesn\u2019t really roll off the tongue.<\/span><\/p>\n

How interesting might this show be if it showcased a group of teenagers who happen to have a unique knowledge of Christianity, both the spiritual side of faith and the political side of the Church, and how they either conform to their parents\u2019 beliefs or buck up against them. As it is, this show takes a look at what it\u2019s like to drink and party a lot, or want to drink and party a lot, when you have very strict parents who happen to be preachers. To a much broader degree that it mostly ignores, Preacher\u2019s Daughters about knowing your parents\u2019 beliefs, knowing their intentions for you and for the world, and actively defying those intentions because you feel strongly enough to do so. The interesting wrinkle of Preacher\u2019s Daughters, or actually being a preacher\u2019s daughter, is that disobedience is all at once a result of the strangling confines of religion, and at the same time, nothing about it at all. <\/p>\n
