It has not been long since the Cosby’s disappeared. There used to be so many family shoes that were geared for my mind and the minds of my children. Do you remember the Beaver and other such programming? Chances are that many of you have never seen Father Knows Best but most likely, you remember the Brady Bunch and Family Affair.

It is certainly not only the LDS people who are complaining about the lowering of the media standards. I have heard it said that most of our filthy sitcoms stared with RoseAnn Barr and I am inclined to believe that this is correct. Sin normally just kind of sneaks under the door and fills our homes with things that MANY of the LDS parents would never intentionally teach our children. NOTE: I have also heard language that has been shocking to me come out of the mouths of our LDS people who claim to be working towards perfection.

Rosanne’s first shows only hinted at what was yet to come as television changed and Satan took control of it.

It is easier to control what our young children are watching both on television and DVD’s . We removed our television set from our home a six years ago and now our teenagers are going to the neighbors homes who have parents who do not care what their kids are watching.

The moral values of the television land are have declined almost every where that television is available. If it is not the television than it is a book which may not have the parents stamp of apprWe had to give up watching television at our home. The only good family viewing is now a thing of the past. We are now it the REMEMBER WHEN stage because the television of today now mostly revolves around SEX and filthy world.

It has not been long since the Cosby’s disappeared. There used to be so many family shoes that were geared for my mind and the minds of my children. Anyone here remember the high standard learning lessons of the Beaver? Chances are that many of you have never seen Father Knows Best and My Three sons even though they occasionally AIR along with the Brady Bunch. I am glad that I did not know that Daddy Brandy was Gay when the show aired.

Sin normally just kind of sneaks under the door and fills our homes with things that MANY of the LDS parents would never intentionally teach their children. I have also heard language that has been shocking to me because I used to think that LDS people were some where near perfection. Rosanne’s first shows only hinted at what was yet to come as television changed and Satan took control of it. It was the precursor of things to come for all of the television programming.

It is easier to control what our young children are watching on both television and DVD’s. We removed our television set from our family room about six years ago and now our teenagers are going to the neighbor’s homes who have parents who do not care what their kids are watching. I personally would love to plant my foot in the middle of my husband’s television if it meant the stopping of watching the ballgames. I personally mostly only watch the news with my husband. He does not want anything to do with computers.

The moral values of the television land are having declined almost everywhere that television is allowed. If it is not television than it can could be a book that does not have many of our parents’ stamp of approval. I have seen many of our LDS women who read filthy romance novels and think nothing of it. I picked one of them up and read a few pages and my eyes about popped out of my head in total disbelief.

Porn is certainly a huge issue. Those who are in the Porn Industry are encouraging very bad thoughts and behavior into the heads of sick men in the world. This person might be now be even more capable of sexually molesting or murdering one of our children.

Are you at work while your kids and watching Dr. Phil talk to people who are having affairs? Are you at work when they are now watching a filthy sitcom that airs in the afternoon? Family channel ? This sexual garbage is certainly not for the minds of our young children or our teenage children. Most of the teens are involved in either having sex or thinking about having sex.

If you want to see what is on television during the afternoon hours you can check your listing on the internet.

Our kids are now being taught that premarital sex is a normal behavior. Some of the girls in my ward have already given birth by the age of 15. We have two of these young teenagers in our ward that had their first child at age 15 and their second child by the time they are 17. Adoption is now not always part of the equation.

I have seen many of our LDS women who read filthy romance novels and they think nothing of it. I picked one of them up and read a chapter or two and my eyes about popped out of my head in total disbelief. I found this book at my cousin’s home while tending her young children. Your children ARE watching what you read. I remember being a young child while I watched my mother read Jesus the Christ. If you do not have a copy of this great book, you can find it on LDS.ORG

Porn is certain a huge issue. Those who are in the Porn Industry are encouraging very bad thoughts into the heads of sick men. This guy might be now capable of sexually molesting or murdering one of our children. There are now more than ever before who have sick minds (both men and women) are now having sex with others to whom they are not married.

I watched a news report saying that other Christian parents are also concerned about what can be seen on Television. I wonder if perhaps writing to our Senators would help.

After chatting with her for a minute and finding out about her fears, I asked her, “Have you ever seen your child’s MySpace page?”

“Oh, no… no…”

“Well, that would be a great first step, wouldn’t it?”

Nearly all of my kids’ friends have a TV in their bedroom at young ages – some as young a five years old. Just like your computer should be in a public area of your home, the TV should be easily monitored as well. One unintended consequence of TV in bedrooms: one boy couldn’t sleep over at our house because there wasn’t a TV to fall asleep to in the bedroom.

There’s the parental password option, but why should I pay for channels I never watch and for content I morally object to? That’s like paying for a magazine and ripping out all of the content except one article that you’re interested in.

Every time Comcast calls me to tempt me with their Basic Cable plan to reduce the cost of my overall bill (I have Internet through them), I tell them no thanks. They can’t imagine why I wouldn’t go for it since it would save me about $18 a month, but when I explain that the only way they’ll get me is if they let me pick and choose the channels, they don’t have any well-prepared answers.

It’s kind of funny to hear them sputtering to try to “convert” me to the Basic Cable plan, and frustrating at the same time. It further confirms to me that they are out to get the almighty dollar, and not to serve the customer.
