We are the family that has the TV on most of the time. Even though we aren’t really watching or paying attention to it. More so for background noise. However, I’m starting to think that I’d prefer the silence.
Don’t get me wrong, I am by no means a Saint…seriously. Have you read She’s Unapologetic? Uhmm, yeah. However, I’m not filthy mouthed in front of the kids (unless it’s something really, really, really bad). My beef? Television programs on at 7:00 at night.
Jeez Pete! Talk about completely unfit for children. If the language isn’t there, it’s all about sex. I don’t quite want to have that talk with my 9 year old just yet. Sometimes it’s naughty language and sex!
We’ve taken to shutting the TV off. It’s probably a good thing, you just have to get used to the quiet.

You know, that's why I barley watch tv anymore either. Even though I'm 19 and it's okay for me to watch, I would rather not because it's mostly garbage anyway.
I mean, what happened to the quality shoes like Full House and Family Matters? Sure they are still on, but can't we make more shows like that?! Instead, there are two or three shows that premier every season that don't even last a few episodes. It's like they produce crap show after crap show and when those crap shows fail, they make more…
I totally understand. We have a tv but don't have "tv" in our house. We like to watch our favorite shows on DVD
I turn on the tv for background noise. I shouldn't do it, but I do. Thank you for inspiring me to change.
