Superhero

When I was 5 years old, I loved a TV show which featured 5 super heroes dressed in different colored capes. The show is still running today even though it looks somewhat cheap compared to today's super computer graphics -- but it has certainly has captured some hearts.
The super heroes are cute and warm-hearted. When the kids sit down to watch the show on TV, naturally their mothers sit down with them. And now we hear in the news that some of them have actually fallen in love with the super heroes(?!). Apparently mothers have been going to live shows, such as those at amusement parks, just to meet their heroes from TV. They write love letters, take photos, and generally behave like idol-crazy fans.
I think it's pretty interesting that mothers and kids both have the same enthusiasm to catch their super heros in action on TV -- even if it's for different reasons. So, what, I wonder, are the fathers doing that their wives fall for this level of substitute?
