Now, at almost 7, all the shows you have mentioned in this article have been BANNED from our house. We have found that the entitled attitudes and what you noted about the parental figures has rubbed off negatively. So, I found myself discussing some of the very thing you suggest, already. *sigh* I suppose it's my own fault, and now I have to do the damage I have done... Thanks for the confirmation of my own suspicions.
