I want to get rid of the TV. My husband and sons will be horrified at the thought, even though Mike has threatened the boys with loss of the television for various infractions of TV rules/courtesy. We just watched on CNN another story of people standing around taking video of voilent crime but no one calling 911. I believe part of this trend is all the violent shows on TV, you can't even watch shows at times young children are around without seeing things they should not be subjected to. Used to be those kinds of shows came on after 9 PM. Now everyone is gettting de-sensitized to violence. I also realize part of this is due to U-tube and all the other internet places this stuff can be posted- hence the supervised use of the web in our house. I am sure I will be out voted on this, but this is along the lines of "It takes a village to raise a child". People in this country need to feel like they used to about saying something to kids doing the wrong thing, crime happening, or anything of this sort. Maybe not step in like they used to, too many crazy or just angry people with guns out there, but at the very least call 911 or tell kids partents what they are doing.
