Killing Charlie Brown

Today's Thoughts By Jeff Head 10/27/12 Killing Charlie Brown

Just too dang mean for today’s kids is what I am being told. Yup, that is what is being said of good old Charlie Brown.  The kids of today are not capable of handling a show full of good natured pranks like yanking a foot ball at the last moment. I bet Charlie has fallen for that little stunt about a gazillion times by now. And of course we have the language, let’s see, words like "stupid," "dumb," and "blockhead." Lord knows we cannot have that being drilled into our children’s head.

Instead of letting them watch a little Charlie Brown every now and then, it must be better to send them to school where they yank out the religion that will teach them morals and ethics. You know, where they teach them how to have sex complete with picture books and drill into their empty little heads what they think sex should be. Where they provide condoms and the school nurse will direct our children to sights where they can be sterilized without the parent’s knowledge.

Instead of letting them watch a little Charlie Brown, let’s let them watch regular TV where every curse word in the book is now allowed including all too often the taken the Lords name in vein.  Where drug addicts, pregnant teens and killing is an everyday experience.  You know where they can learn how to dis-respect authority from their parents all the way up to the cop on the beat and beyond. Need I go on? 

Maybe I am a little old fashioned, but I grew up watching Charlie Brown. I also grew up in an age of classics like the “The Andy Griffith Show” and “Leave It To Beaver.” TV back then taught children family values, not how to feel no remorse after taken out half of a school.

Charlie Brown, that’s the problem with today’s kids and TV. I would rather sit a child in a room with twenty four, seven Charlie then half of the garbage that they are feeding kids in today’s world.  Leave good old Charlie alone and start going after these folks that are ripping just plain every day morals and ethics out of our society. Charlie Brown, on his worst day is better for our kids then the agenda that is being fed to them by all too many modern day TV shows and special interest groups that seem to know better than us parents what is good for our children.

Be safe peeps.
