How do the various "cartoon" characters interfere with a child's understanding moral values and Truth?

Specifically recognizing so much sexual ambiguity in characters like "Sweet Pea", the abandoned urchin-like child who lives with Popeye (single father), and Peanuts' Lucy's apparant misandry?



I just have a reel fear with things like this and I want to keep my child from being confused.



What have you seen on things like that that could damage a child and how to keep children from it is also.



(the wording is very important here.)



Ty all.

Sweet Pea is definately not to live without two parents to turn out straight.



Lucy, is not desireable as a wife who is meant to be barefoot in the kitchen and only surving her authority... Man.



So, I think the younger you can expose your child to Charlton Heston's Moses or images of the walking dead during judgement day, and have simple Christian coloring books as an alternative to cartoons, that should help.



Because, just as we have to spank the child for running out in the street... We must mentally instill fear of hell to keep them safe in eternal light of Jesus' promise.



Also, rent Christian cartoons and limit her TV time to those cartoons.



Your a good mother, so I doubt you would let anything happen to her that would harm her young developing mind.



I forgot to mention Barney. He is much safer than Sesame Street or Mr. Rogers. They have homosexual undertones and Barney is very safe.

Reply:Children need positive communication from the parents on very subject in life so they can grow up to be responsible, loving and caring adults.
Reply:The way to prevent a child from being damaged isn't to shield them from every single thing.

Shield them from the obvious, answer their questions about the rest. If you've raised them well, they'll consider the morals you've taught them when evaluating such things.
Reply:There is not much on TV today that is good for anybody especially children.
Reply:It's our moral duty to give the best to the child. I know that this relative, but this is what one should aim at from the perspective of time, location and culture.



Cartoon characters are good as long as they are constructive and convey positive values to child.
Reply:Oh, it goes farther back than that. Consider the institutional cruelty in Tom %26amp; Jerry cartoons. And Heckle, Jeckle and Felix the Cat were as amoral as they come. But I'd have to say the most egregious example of exercising brute power for its own sake was Walter Lanz's sociopathic little penguin, Chilly Willy. To this day, I don't understand why Harvey Birdman, Attourney at Law, has not leapt to file suit on behalf of the hapless Wally Walrus.

"Popeye" and "Peanuts"!!!

Some advice:

If you and your child cannot face the cartoon -"reality" of these antiques, you'd better damned sure keep ALL of you away from cartoons like "Blood" and "Inuyasha"!
Reply:Your moral values are clearly outdated. You personally need to change; stop trying to change society to meet your assumed moral values.

Reply:Didnt you know, kitty, cartoons are evil EVIL things. Especially the one with Sylvester the cat. Buggs bunny hes really Satan in rabbits clothing and, by the love of all things holy, we cant watch Veggie Tales.......
