same sex parents show on Nick

[§äñît¥ Pôí§ðñ]

I just watched it (out of boredom, of course).
I don't think it lived up to the hype. Most things don't...
It was more of a "waah can't we all just get along" type show, it was very tame

rosie o'donnell scares me

I'm sorry but that is ridiculous...I mean, is it necessary to have a show with same sex parents? And on a children's station?! This country is becoming so politically correct and its quite sickening, it seems as if anything goes nowadays...

why not?

to not show it on TV would be saying its wrong....and it isnt accordng to the government is it?

maybe it will show children that lesbian and gay parents can bring up children just as well in the face of difficulties, and that they shouldnt be sterotyped.....maybe it will show children that celebs might be willing to latch ionto sexuality as a method to boost ratings. who knows.....all i know is if rosie o donnel is one of the lesbians no dad in the country is gonna be watching with his kids

How is it politically correct to produce a show with same-sex parents?

Nick went with it BECAUSE it was heavily protested. Their ratings numbers are in the toilet. They are trying anything to get them up.

Well, there's no problem producing shows with opposite-sex parents, and the homosexual community would have a protesting field day if, heaven forbid, someone refused to produce a show based on same-sex parents on a childrens' TV station.

The whole point of political correctness is "conforming to a belief that language and practices which could offend political sensibilities (as in matters of sex or race) should be eliminated." In other words, don't hurt someone's feelings.

Pretty silly if you ask me. The only criteria of whether or not Nick would show a same-sex parenting show should be "do you feel like showing it?"

Its all liberal propaganda....everyone wants their rights and far be it from me to say they cant have them, but do kids need to view it on television??? NO!

Ok, I have to disagee with you on this. Most studies have shown that biggoted behaviour is ingrained at an early age....like kindergarten or sooner. Personally, I think exposing kids to different lifestyles early (and no, this doesn't mean encouraging or promoting that lifestyle) is a good thing. What's wrong with showing tolerance?

I know a lesbian couple with a 10 year old son. He never gets hasseled by his friends or anyone in his peer group. They're just like "Rob has 2 moms...big deal." I think when kids are taught tolerance, it's much more benifical to them in the long run. Tolerance equals a greater acceptance of new ideas, which in turn helps them cope with all the bullshit life will throw at them.

Just my 2 cents.
