Intervention

This week, on A&E's "Intervention"...

We travel to Sin City to confront a sixteen month old toddler about his Cheerio addiction.

His mother contacted us recently and said his addiction has been going on for almost two months. The family is starting to go bankrupt trying to support his habit. He refuses to go anywhere without his Cheerio cup. And if you try to take the cup away?

He gets very, very angry.

The toddler refuses to take any accountability for his behavior, and has even begun to attempt to disguise himself while he engages in his habit. Our cameras followed him for a day and caught him in the car doing this:

And then defiantly doing this:

Nom nom nom!

When we tried to talk him, he simply turned his head and refused to answers any of our questions.

His habit is hurting more than just himself.

Says his mother: "While I'm concerned about the incredible amount of Cheerios he eats per day, my biggest gripe is that I'm constantly stepping on them and it's ruining my clean floors."

His father declined to comment.

And probably most telling, friends are being neglected.

We were once so close...

But despite everyone's efforts and intentions, I think it's time we call in the professionals. After all, we have a crisis on our hands.
