Unplug It.
Katie Couric had a report last night on CNN that once again emphasizes the theme I seem to have hit on this week of the need for responsible involved parents.
Among the quotes in the AP story:
“I think that society is so sexualized from the time these kids are small, they’re quite comfortable,” Couric said.
…
Couric said sex “needs to be a constant discussion. It’s not one discussion about the birds and the bees and then, ‘Phew, that’s it.’ “
And here’s another, from yesterday: Students Arrested Over ‘Violent’ Stick Figure Drawings.
My first thoughts were “where are the parents?” and “would the cops have to lead these kids away in hand cuffs if the parents were doing their jobs?” (Granted, I don’t know the families, and maybe the parents truly are doing their best, those were just my gut reactions).
A [possibly more] relevant question that a friend of mine raised is “where did they get these ideas in the first place?” From their friends? But where did they get the ideas.
We can blame the entertainment industry, Hollywood, and the television all we want… but I submit that it’s not that hard to unplug the TV and solve a LOT of the problems with our children.
