why are people afraid ?

Published Jul. 6, 2008

I go to yahoo answers, its a fun place to give fun answers or advice or to ask funny questions. Once I asked a question and I had refrenced VEggie tales into it.

 I got many NEGATIVE responses from people calling me retarded and my children would be retarded from watching veggie tales.

So my question is this, why are people so afraid of NON violent tv with no sexual ineuendo ( sp ? ) cursing, affairs, crime and or violence ?

Veggie tales is great, it teaches right from wrong, morals and the way to treat others. MOST reference it as  a religious show but it's not, they never mention Jesus ( that I know of ) just teachins of good behavior and morals.

I'm appalled at many peoples answers sometimes on their view of veggie tales even though they have never seen them

So my question is, wouldn't you rather your child watch a show that teaches morals and values ( and of course you and I as a parent do that as well ) then watching mindless cartoons like teletubiies or animae violent cartoons ?

Your thoughts ?

Veggie Tales are standard kiddie fare here, and widely loved. There are some biblical references in most of them, but nothing heavy handed. But don't put down Teletubbies too quickly... The show is designed for soothing and relaxing kids 18 months to 36 months. These kids have only basic language skills, and teletubbies helps them the learn to settle down and focus. I know it can be rough on adults but its designed very much for that young age group.

Veggie Tales are awesome!!! We have a boat load of videos here in our home. Along with cd's that we listen to in the car. The songs are so catchy that I find myself forgetting to turn off the cd after the kids are all out of the car!

oooops...meant jonah and the wale

Veggie Tales is a Christian cartoon..all of the cartoons have reference to the bible in some way or another. My Brother in laws church had the children do a play of the rumor weed, which was one of their lessons.

My kids LOVE them..they have many of their shows...My favorite is the Jonah wale...

I've never heard anything but good stuff about veggie tales. My 4 yr old doesn't really get into it - she loves SpongeBob. It's a good little cartoon.

I love that show! Larry's my favorite.

Wilowdreams: Sometimes you just have to ignore some people. There are those that are going to be negative and rude, no matter what. They must be very sad and unhappy with their life, so they take it out on everyone else. As for Veg.Tales, my grandson comes over and stays with me and that is one of his favorite show. We even have a couple of DVD Movies about VEGGIE TALES.

My kids love veggie tales... when we are in the car, one will start a song and they all start singing along. We don' watch a lot of TV, but I do buy them videos and usually they are things like veggie tales or the older hanna barbara (sp) cartoons- we love scooby doo.

My kids still love Veggie tales with one of our favorites being Jonah. They love all of the silly songs but my personal favorite is the Cheeseburger song.

I got many NEGATIVE responses from people calling me retarded and my children would be retarded from watching veggie tales.

It's the Internet,so anything goes.Kids get online just to "cyber-fight".They get kicks from doing such things.Nothing more,Nothing Less.
