[QUOTE="DammitJanet, post: 408755, member: 1514"] Im probably going to be in the minority here...lol but then I often am. Or maybe Im just a more outspoken person. I never censored much of what my kids watched or played. We had all the Nintendo systems that came up the line when they were growing up. My Dad saw to that. Billy was our biggest gamer and still is today though Jamie is big into hunting games at his house. None of my kids are particularly violent...even Cory. Yes Cory swears like a sailor. So does Jamie but he learned that in the Marines. I never heard Jamie swear in front of me until he went into the Marines. Jamie and Cory could hardly sit still enough to watch much TV when they were really little. As they grew up they watched some stuff but back then we didnt have cable so it was all network stuff. They did like sci-fi and some horror movies. Billy was a huge horror movie fan and he and Tony would rent them and watch them together. I cant stand the things. Now with the grands? Well I dont have access to Hailie but Keyana? She adores her cartoons and the Hannah show and of course, Justin Bieber stuff but she also LOVES LOVES LOVES crime drama. I have no idea why. I will be watching it in my bedroom and if she comes in start to flip the stations and she will go NO! Lets watch it...I wanna see. Look...the bad guy is doing this...see...he is gonna do that and then they are gonna come do this...wait...see! She knows its a tv show and she knows it isnt real. Im talking about shows like law and order, Criminal Minds, NCIS. Then of course, she loves football and NASCAR. She really likes NASCAR and now has picked a driver - Kyle Busch because he drives the M&M car...lol. I have got to take her to a race. I dont know what to make about the fact that she likes crime shows. They dont scare her so I dont think I should forbid her from watching them because then she would think its bad. She doesnt act out the behaviors. Maybe she is just going to be a person who likes that sort of fiction. I do. [/QUOTE]
