Just another example of todays children being closeted in their little bubbles.
Its a wonder we all made it through the 70"s. |

Well its more the opposite here. They show everything at strange times. My sister was surprised they showed Desperate Housewives for example at 3pm but I dunno if thats bad as I think the one time I watched it was once too many. But programs with cursing, raunchy sex scenes and horrific violence are shown at all times here.Then again a kid only needs to go to local shops here, look up on top shelves of magazines and theres tits galore. Plus we have a tv channel that shows hard core porn Thurs-Sun from 11pm. Guess they wonder why I turn into a maniac taking full control of the remote. Friends think its good as porn might not be so exciting for them when they're older and they dont have to sneak about and waste loads of money renting. These friends are male though so maybe theyve a diferent perspective.
Its a great open country but I think with the way things are changing it could do with a bit of cencorship |
