This could easily be a case where its not the TV shows that "make" them have ***, but the kind of family and parental relationships these kinds of kids have are diminished, and THATS responsible.
how many decent parents would let there young kids watch *** in the city on a regular basis??
Dont blame the TV, blame yourSELF, parents.............................

DDDDDUUUUUUUUUHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH

Media and especially peer pressure has led to many problems; parents can do only so much, but the ambient environment is relevant too.

Our media teaches football, basketball, and hopping into bed (and sometimes showing it) - anyone who likes to learn is a feeb, geek, nerd, dork, whatever...

There is nothing wrong with football, basketball, risque television programs, but aim them at the appropriate audiences. The "least common denominator" mindset is why everything is so grossly permeated with vapid kink.

Did ''free speech'' ever anticipate our society sinking so consistently low?

I think not *** in shows lead to teens pregnancy but the fact that in the 21st century America and some parents are unable to give a sexual education and birth control to teenagers and consider *** as tabu. This is the consequence of living in a cave, because nothing can refrain teens to have *** some day.

I guess palin''s daughter better stop watching that *** on TV. About palin''s medical records, they will never come out, because that so-called child of hers will actually be her daughter''s second kid.

"To Azraek about her response to my comment. WRONG! While I don''''t doubt people around you smoked and lost their virginity like you did. Where do you think some of these people got these messages which trickled down to you. I know that this sounds stupid or out in left field but whether you believe it or not it''''s true. I hate to say it but you and those like you are really the stupid ones because you''''re so snowed"

First off I am a guy, secondly my friend who I mimicked got it from his girlfriend, my mom was the same as me and picked it up from friends, you call me snowed and stupid, you sit and listen to every hair brained theory about why kids are little pains in the @$$ and not look to the parents where it all starts, so until you sheep are willing to believe that parents now a day SUCK and can''t educate their kids on right from wrong, you need to shut it and stop ruining everyone elses enjoyment of shows, because it is scapegoat seeking people such as yourself who get TV shows canceled, movies removed, and video games banned just because your kid is a snot.
