Would you be my neighbor???

Seriously, our kids (or future kids) are fucked! Unless this were to come out on DVD or hopefully PBS will be smart enough to NEVER take this off the air, how will they ever understand how fantastic Mister Roger's Neighborhood was??? I mean, seriously??? Look at all the crap that's on TV these days for kids..... In my opinion, there's really no great role model for kids to look up to, a lot of cartoons are REALLY cracked out & inappropriate (I will NEVER get over how "Ed,Edd, and Eddie" is suppose to be for kids!) and no one to really teach them hard work and discipline. Yeah, there's the parents that are there to teach them that but have you noticed that a lot of parents aren't? Please don't take this the wrong way cuz I do know some AMAZING people out there that are kick ass parents but I can't help but notice that for every great parent, there's about 3 not so great parents. They may be too busy with work or maybe just had kids cuz they thought they needed to b/c it was time to settle down and start a family when they know damn right they weren't ready.


Whatever the case is, I feel that there should be better influences out there for the future of America. If things keep going the way it is, our kids will elect Miley Cyrus as the first woman president of the United States & for everytime she does something wrong/bad, the excuse will be "Well, my best friend Leslie says, 'Oh, she's just being Miley!' "


So please, for all the parents (especially younger parents that are my age or even younger), inform your kids on the great man that was Mister Rogers. If you need help, here's an article I saw on Bean's Blog about the greatest that was..... RIP Mister Rogers..... I only hope someone can one day teach and influence a generation of children the way you did but I know no one can ever replace you....
