I have three children: 21,14, &amp; 10. My wife and I have practiced “remote control” , switching channels or turning the tube off, whenever questionable commercials come on. It’s especially bad during football games. The most objectionable commercials seem to be the ones promoting the primetime shows on any given network. My 14 year old even censors commercials himself. <BR/><BR/>We knew we were doing something right when our oldest, at the time 12, called us from his grandparents home and asked if he could watch Mrs. Doubtfire, a PG-13 movie. Before my wife could answer he said,” I know the answer but I don’t want to hurt Mamaw’s feelings”.<BR/><BR/>You can make a lasting mark on your children. It doesn’t mean they won’t stumble sometimes – as their parents often do – but they will be stronger.<BR/><BR/>Peace,<BR/><BR/>Jim Davis, IndianapolisAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3960425726919350665.post-77957604579570415432009-01-26T22:12:00.000-08:002009-01-26T22:12:00.000-08:00This is a great post!! Very informative and practical. Even in just simple family gatherings, dads (and moms) can make them to be emotionally and intellectually stimulating. It is indeed very important that parents and children, especially <A>teens, inspire</A> each other.Blended-Families.comhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/12978595885663562663noreply@blogger.com
