Same here, me and my brother were allotted an hour a night that we could watch TV... so we had to pick what we wanted to watch wisely.

Exactly. Its a matter of seeing the reality. Just bc you watch it and see it on tv , doesn't mean you need to emulate it and think its right. Yes that seems to happen, but things can mitigate that occurrence, such as parents (and I believe thats their job to do or not to do, as they see fit)

Calling all this rap and pop shit crap and saying kids shouldn't watch it bc of what is does doesnt fly with me.

We're smart ppl (or should be), we cant keep passing the fucking buck and blaming the TV or Britney Spears for the shit our kids do in society. We are capable of not conforming if thats what we wish and what society values.

obviously conformation to this isn't frowned upon on the whole as it is perpetuated everywhere you look.

I dont think its necessarily horrible, it just is. I guess some others dont like it (ie. many of us) and thus we complain about it. I wouldn't wanna be like that myself, so I dont let myself. Thats as far as my worry extends on this matter.

she would either kick me out to play in the fresh air or take me out and about the town or beach

i'm a child of the news.. I spent more time watching the news when I was a child then i did eating up pop media. My parents let me watch the evening news when I was 11 yrs old. Hrm probably why i'm so jaded.

Ahhhh you people are misunderstanding me!

When i was younger...I listened to Brittney Spears, BSB, NSYnc, Spice Girls...etc. But times have changed since then, now these celebrities are ALL OVER the media. Hollywood stars and their lives have became such a main focus of media these days that they forget to report what is actually going on in the real world. Sure girls have the option of not copying these celebrities....but when their parents stick them infront of a TV and expect a box that projects images to raise their kids, do you think those kids are going to know any better?

I was barely allowed to watch TV as a kid.....we went outside and played. Times are different now.....so many houses have both parents working and the parents rely on schools, TVs, etc. to raise their kids and forget to get their kids outside and play.

Jim Lahey also sais something along those lines "the Shit Apple doesn't fall far from the shit Tree"
