Recalling TV and Movie Past: Bringing Back Quality

Whether it is ABC, NBC, MTV or Nickelodeon you can't go through a couple of minutes or hours without seeing or hearing inappropriate language, too much kissing, too little clothing or another human treating another human disrespectfully. The content put on our Television sets anymore has become too embarrassing or cruel that you might as well sell your Television sets.

Movies and television of the past have just become that a thing of the past. A wholesome, happy era that has been swept under the rug. When was the last time you rented a movie or turned on your television that your 4 year old daughter could watch without you reaching to cover her eyes or ears. When was the last time your daughter asked, mom what does "%%$#%!" mean? We live in such a day that those words, actions and thoughts are not so outrageous to hear a 6 year old say. Families might not be able to change the outside world but I believe families can begin to change the world of their children and that is where it begins. Get your family together and all decide to clean out those DVD shelves and remove anything that has any negative influence. Start today to make it a tradition to watch with your children a fun, kind and positive show. Here are a number of movies and television shows that you might remember in your future rentals or purchases. Make a difference in our future generations by helping watch what they see and hear.
