If I chime in, your daughter will surely become a stripper or a prostitute as a result. I will bow out now with only this, only you know what's best for your kids... trust your instincts. They are more resilient than they're given credit for, and we have all surely survived worse.
Which is she- resilient or a future stripper? :unsure:Quote:

twins under 6 and the only live action we watch is a few super hero movies, percy jackson, and harry potter. Kids are way more impressionable than you think
I can appreciate your efforts, but it should be noted that there are animations that can be quite disturbing as well. Even some of the shows we expected to be tame ended up with age-inappropriate content.

I've noticed that the new looney tunes seems to agree with me, and none of the humour is violent slap stick any more. I earnestly believe that one of the largest problems every country is facing is one of acceptable boundaries. We all break boundaries when we're teenagers. Hell, it's what we're built for. My theory is to bring back the boundaries now, while she's still so young, so that when she DOES break 'em, they're boundaries I find acceptable.
I don't think the watching the telly question is the real question. I believe you're really asking about how to institute appropriate boundaries, if that makes sense. Anything you decide on, regarding the telly, would probably spill over to general communication, books, youtube, music videos, and from one father to another, those bloody tshirts with inappropriate content on them that I used to wear, and now want to rip off the backs of the bastards currently wearing them. lololololol
Hiding the child from the world is not as effective as framing a context for them. I grew up under two very different parenting styles. My father forbade everything and discussed nothing. My mother, on the other hand permitted almost everything and the dialog was open. My father was also an asshole that turned me onto thoughts of suicide and broke my ability to be socially comfortable. After my mother's cancer went into remission, I started living with her again, and I was able to recover from most of the trauma in an unfettered environment. What I learned from all this is that the external impersonal shit in the world plays an insignificant role in development. Any real effects will be imparted by relationships with family and friends.
In short, it really doesn't matter what a child witnesses outside of the home, for its their home environment that will shape them.
Good gawd, if I wanted :ghey: :emo: :shit: , I'd molest my son then feel bad about it...Quote:
