What kids' shows drive you to change the channel and why?

sapphiresage @sapphiresage (431) • United States 6 Apr 07

I was just changing the channel because Teletubbies came on, and I was wondering what shows drive other people nuts to the point where they will change the channel. For me, it's Teletubbies, Barney, Boobah, Dora the Explorer,...

calderon Children do have accidents....I'm a little confused as to why you didn't try to hold it in class?? Did you do it because your teacher simply said no? As far as kids having to pee...I don't think it a reason to get upset with a child, unless it's intentional....

calderon I don't think her relationship with her older sister is the most important thing on her mind right now. She definitely has a lot of growing up to do...I also think talking to her might be a good idea. Honestly, she might just want someone that is willing to...

Carrie52683 @Carrie52683 (8) • United States 3 Apr 07

calderon I'm guilty...I used to be very good at keeping up with my house. That was until my second child was born. Now it seems as if I can never keep up. There are some days where I would do a lot of cleaning, but I try to include my kids. It's not like I'm ignoring...

engineous @engineous (396) • Australia 1 Apr 07

calderon I agree, I don't think they should push anything on anyone. To say the least...if what they believe is true and the right way. Then why is it so hard for them to convince others to believe it. I my self believe there's a God! And I like going to churches that...

calderon I would have to say, YES this is a sin. And I think you know as well. The fact that you are thinking of another women in any other way than a friend, constitutes sin. You're suppose to honor your wife! And this is wrong, sorry to have to tell you that.
