As parents and teachers, we do our best to nurture our children. We
teachthem good values, guide them in the right directions when they make
mistakes; we protect them from all harms before they are mature enough to
protectthemselves. To shield young children from inappropriate contents on
TV, many parents have used the parental control features on their remote
control.Initially, I thought ABC is a family friendly TV channel whose
contents donot need to be monitored, but the Jimmy Kimmel's "Kid's round
table" show on Oct 16 proved me wrong.
In response to the question on how to pay back our debts to other nations, a
6 year old boy proposed the idea of "Killing everyone in China". Mr. Kimmel
chuckled at the answer and made the comment that this was an "interesting
idea". After leading the young guests to a debate on the feasibility of
using mass murder as a problem solving strategy, Mr. Kimmel further asked
the kids in the show "Should we allow the Chinese to live?”, to which he
got mixed answers.
I had briefly wondered how this little boy came up with the idea of “
killing everyone” in a nation. Then I realized that the “Jimmy Kimmel Live
” is not even a live show. Like all talk shows, there are hundreds of
people working behind-the-scenes. Each writer is responsible for writing
monologue jokes and each usually has an assignment for a specific guest. The
shows are recorded earlier in the day to allow enough time for necessary
editing.
Now I know that the 6 year old may not understand what he was saying, but
the adults behind the show must know what they were doing. Instead of asking
“Should we allow someone to live?”, which should not even be a question to
begin with, maybe we can ask the following questions instead: Should we
allow adults to channel messages of mass murder and genocide through a 6
year old? Should we allow our children to consider, even for a second,
killing people as a way to solve or escape from their problems? Should we
allow a TV host to expose thousands of innocent young viewers to messages of
violence and hatred? Should we allow a TV program to use race baiting to
boost a show’s popularity? Should we allow our children to suffer from all
the negative publicity, to be laughed at, to be emotionally traumatized, so
that some adults can enjoy cheap and distasteful jokes?
Enough is enough! It is time to protect our children from malicious programs
on TV. It is time to say no to the adults who attempted to mislead and use
innocent kids for their own agenda. Every day we shower our children with
love. How can we tolerate the people who purposefully delivered hate speech
that have potentially counteracted all our efforts? Until ABC issues a
formal protocol to make sure something in that vein never gets aired again,
until the company lets go of all the people who lacks basic judgment and
human decency, we are not viewing your program again. We are not creating
revenues for Disney and ABC, until you prove with your actions,that you
really endorse the values your adorable cartoon characters represent. | y*******g

My dauthter is 6 y/o. She is in the first grade. No teachers teaches kids to
kill people. No teachers teach kids discrimnation. What does idea come from?
We should get more people involved. We demonstrate for our kids, for our
future. |
