My Two Cents

I'll admit that I probably watch too much television. But honestly, there are so many shows on right now that embarrass me. As soon as they come on, I change the station.

It seems like the shows today always have a gay person, the families have so many diverse relationships, sex, and words that should not be allowed.

 

When our sons were growing up, we had a rule - if the show embarrassed me while we were watching it, I changed the station. I embarrass very easily. Our one son always would tell people that he never got to watch a whole show his entire life.

I would probably be considered very old fashion. But I don't care. I grew up watching "The Donna Reed Show," "Leave it to Beaver," "Andy Griffith," "Father Knows Best," and so many other wholesome shows. They showed normal families with moral values. Also I loved the old westerns -

"Roy Rogers Show," "Bonanza," "Gunsmoke."

"Father Knows Best"

"The Donna Reed Show"

 

 

The shows I grew up watching, they influenced my life. I still remember watching some of these shows and thinking, "I want to have a family like that some day."

If the shows today are influencing our children, it is sad.

 

 

 

 

We live in a scary world, where our kids are growing up thinking that what they see on television is the new normal. Give me a family like "Father Knows Best" any old day.

 

 

 

 

 

 

  

Well like I said that's my Two Cents worth.
