I'm almost at the point where I'd like to cancel my satellite service altogether. If it weren't for football season...

Yeah, I've noticed that there is a general lack of good family friendly programming for kids, which is disappointing. We often let Anthony watch more "adult" things, mainly movies - stuff like Spiderman, Daredevil, Pirates of the Carribean, etc...he has a good grasp on real/fiction and isn't bothered by the dead bodies or anything...if it's a really grizzly scene we make him cover his eyes. I sometimes wonder if we're making a mistake, and we might be, but I feel that it's a better alternative than most of the crap that is on TV.
