POLL: Dad believes "Charlie Brown" too mean for kids

Secure.......you hit the nail on the head. Totally agree. Makes me puke to see, for example, kids sports events where everyone gets a trophy! Imagine that, a trophy for coming in last place. way to motivate kids dummies.

"|||| |||!!!"...You tell him Woodstock...and the horse he rode in on.

and this is why our kids are growing up to be p*ssies these days. everyone has to win, nobody knows how to lose with dignity...kids have no character, morals or ethics...kids have no idea of the "real world" because we are too soft on them. Good Grief indeed

I think the Dad, while well-intentioned, missed the point. Sometimes you mess up your Halloween costume, and sometimes you get a rock in your bag of treats, and sometimes you will get called Blockhead. But you keep doing the correct thing, and things work out.

Good grief!

Turn in your man card in now. Do not pass GO, do not collect $200. While you're at it, turn in your parent card because if you are complaining about Charlie Brown being too offensive for your kids, you have more issues you need to take care of in your household (stop trying to blame it on something else).

You gotta be kidding me! Good Grief. Charlie Brown always had a message in the cartoons, like the Thanksgiving and Christmas ones. There is nothing "taunting" about them! The kids don't need toughing up, the dad does!

All those cartoons in the funny paper are just vulgar and a waste of time. Most of them come out in the Sunday paper on a day when children need to be studying the scriptures and going to church. Anything that tries to take children's attention off of the worship of God and Jesus is a sin, and it is the work of the devil and his people. I would never let my children or grandchildren look at that trash. If they want to look at cartoons, I keep a collection of the little track books from the Reverend Jack Chick because they deal with good Christian subjects.

I like that song, "Charlie Brown" that Reznor did. I saw where there's a new Peanuts cartoon movie due out in a few years. I think Disney bought the rights, but it would be entertaining to seem some alternative version, maybe something that Oliver Stone would direct, where Charlie would whip out a pistol and take care of the problem once and for all after the last time Lucy snatched that football just before he tried to kick it. I figure Linus supplied him with the weapon and was doing trips with Pig-Pen and Peppermint Patty was the dealer, because her dad worked in big pharma and had connections.

Wow, really? This 'Dad' must be the ultimate wuss. The trouble with most kids now-a-days is they are too pampered and spoiled...maybe ol' Charlie can toughen them up. http://news.yahoo.com/blogs/lookout/high-school-graduation-speaker-tells-students-not-special-145709954.html
