[QUOTE="Lothlorien, post: 238024, member: 1024"] When my kids are in the car, I usually only have a Christian music station on. If I don't and something comes up that I don't approve of, I turn it on. This particular station does not have innappropriate commercials, which is the greatest thing, because I find a lot of commercials appalling when my kids are around. What I find really, deeply disturbing are when there is a kid's movie on a station like TNT and a commercial for Nip/Tuck comes on with grotesque figures and women's necks cut. Missy and I were watching something a few weeks ago and this happened. I was furious. They will also have commercials for Viagra or some other thing that I really don't want to have to explain to an 8 year old. I don't care for the song, but I haven't seen it used in a commercial geared toward kids. I was glad my kids were in bed when the singer was on So You Think you Can Dance. I don't think Missy would have understood the connotation, yet. I still haven't explained the birds and the bees, yet. I really don't want to have to explain the other end of the spectrum, too.
