Now I don't know too much about it, but I know its a Vampire teen love story. How much more un islamic could you get? Its not appropriate for 13 year old girls to read this kind of stuff anyway, let alone Muslims. Vampires? Come on, really. <br /><br />Anyway, there are a lot of things out there that we need to avoid, and its nice to hear that a young lady like yourself is doing her best to keep away from the nonsense.Jamilahhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16620206144107871079noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8852074746403297867.post-38135426974827443972009-04-22T11:35:00.000-07:002009-04-22T11:35:00.000-07:00That 'SWEET LIFE' show sounds totally AWFUL!

And depressing.<br /><br />I remember seeing an article in the Parents magazine a few months ago about how the trend for "sexy" clothing is targeting kids as early as 7-8 years old. My girls will definitely NOT being wearing anything like that. Even though my kids are still little (oldest is almost 4) I don't put them in those little skirts that they have for little kids, it just doesn't seem right. <br /><br />We don't have cable, right now my kids only watch PBS. <br /><br />I agree, those shows and clothing are going to affect your frame of mind and thought process. How else can you expect your kids to turn out?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8852074746403297867.post-48816228787047206042009-04-20T10:50:00.000-07:002009-04-20T10:50:00.000-07:00You are quite right, comrade! At my school, there ...You are quite right, comrade! At my school, there are so many pregnant girls that it becomes "normal" to see them. The things that are glorified in the crap on TV really don't help the situation any. What's sad is that many of these poor girls don't understand the amount of responsibility that comes along with raising a child or the fact that they could have so much more in life if only they would make healthier choices. <br />In the defence of "Secret Life of the American Teenager", the point of the show isn't to glorify sex, but to show exactly what a hardship it was for this girl in the story... sadly, it doesn't do a very good job of this. It's mostly just lame entertainment. <br />In my opinion, the best way to teach a kid is by example. In a way, it's good that young people like you and I have seen all the stupid things that people do so that we won't make the same mistakes ourselves and insha'allah, neither will our children. One good thing can come out of this chaos: wisdom, alhamduillah.littlekropotkinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05725482739203785430noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8852074746403297867.post-68868418466197907522009-04-20T10:25:00.000-07:002009-04-20T10:25:00.000-07:00Wow I don't have cable either, so that really is s...Wow I don't have cable either, so that really is shocking. I do know about the little girl clothes though. I can't believe the stuff they market for girls that are in preschool.

At the peak, there were 9 of them! But anyway, one little boy, about 5 years old, came in at one point, with this really sad look on his face, almost crying. He sat on the couch and I asked him what was wrong, if he had been hurt. He says no... Then one of the older kids asked if the girl had broken up with him again. He said yes and started crying!! He's 5!!<br /><br />I had no idea what to do! Seriously, this isn't a relationship to them, it's just the status of this girl being closer to him than another boy, but then becoming closer with another boy who she now calls her boyfriend. They shouldn't be talking boyfriend, girlfriend, kissing, etc. at that age. <br /><br />And kids shouldn't be watching these types of shows. But then we think that these shows are not really that interesting to any normal adult. The producers should stop making these types of shows directed towards teens and pre-teens!Candicehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15769515811889621243noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8852074746403297867.post-91292593569242182562009-04-19T04:58:00.000-07:002009-04-19T04:58:00.000-07:00tottal agreement from me me i see my younger cousi...tottal agreement from me me i see my younger cousins and friends siblings its disgusting!!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8852074746403297867.post-57223813552082506852009-04-18T20:22:00.000-07:002009-04-18T20:22:00.000-07:00Malekat, well written!

She has asked me, why it put some tags like 'use condom'...why it's not 'no free sex' etc. I have tried to tell her that perhaps about culture pattern, habit. I have been concerned about young generation. I can't stop what the whole world do about some bad thing toward young generation right now, I just try to prevent, and struggle in other way, based on my religion. It have to be our moral responsibility as a muslim. I'm proud of you as a teen muslim.

She is also banned from all "adult content" shows masking to be geared for children. I think the problem is that most parents use the television set as a babysitter while they get other things done. <br />It's very worrisom to raise a daughter in this type of environnement. <br /> I'm very proud of you dearest little sister, you are a very strong girl inshilallah. It's very good that you write about these issues and share your feelings about it.kulthumhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15315102978312324740noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8852074746403297867.post-17973738886904204732009-04-18T12:15:00.000-07:002009-04-18T12:15:00.000-07:00I hate watching TV...I am those people who love to...I hate watching TV...I am those people who love to multitask.
