It never ceases to amaze me how parents always find some kind of way to blame the behavior of their children on someone else. Where did this sudden urge to talk about this come from? Well from the fact that America Ferrera said that and i quote ” The Hills and Gossip Girls are mean spirited shows.”

Now i guarantee you that if i took a survey to see how many parents believe that these shows are the reasons that they children act in sexually irresponsible ways and believe that they should live their life according to American TV standards.

Want me to hit you with some reality? The problem is not what the child thinks, the problem is what the parents allow their childrens’ minds to be not only consumed with but influenced by. Children , esp. teenagers, only act on by what they are influenced to do. They don’t just come out of thin air and decide that they are going to try and be the “sexist kid in school” or just out the blue try to achieve “varsity status” so they can be popular. So my question to you is this my fellow bloggers.

Can you honestly blame Mass Media for the misguided behavoir of teenagers today or is it safe to say that parents’ should get a better hold on their kids?

Please discuss and let me know what you think
