Re: Do You Think Characters Influence Young Children?
I don't think any of them are. I mean even if there is a bad episode there is always a lesson learned so the kids who are watching the shows actually learn not to lie or not to break the rules.
Re: Do You Think Characters Influence Young Children?
I think Hannah Montana is a bad influence. This show teaches kids that it is OK to sass back to parents and that it is OK to have huge drama fights with friends and siblings.
Re: Do You Think Characters Influence Young Children?
I dislike Disney and I think they all influence kids badly ......Hannah Montana back talks on her show....so now after kids watch that there gonna run and back talk someone
Re: Do You Think Characters Influence Young Children?
All these complaints about 'backtalk'; you don't think that maybe if a kid tries that once or twice with their own parents they'll learn that it's not okay for them? All kids test their boundaries, and the reactions of their parents and the other people around them teach them what will happen if they push too far.
Re: Do You Think Characters Influence Young Children?
I think Londan Tipton is a bad influence on the TV show anyways! To her it's always Me, me, me, me, me, me it teaches kids to be self centered... And shes always like... Your hair is horrible and saying mean things about others style of clothing... It doesn't teach kids anything very good.... Sam from Icarly is pretty mean too...I wouldn't want to see kids acting like her... And neither of them ever get in trouble in the TV shows... I know in real life they are both very nice and awesome but on TV shows they are not good influence for the little ones watching.
Re: Do You Think Characters Influence Young Children?
Not really, I mean, Alex always has to fix the problem, and she does get in trouble. As for Sam, well, I don't really think anyone would actually follow her behavior! But its just my opinion.

Re: Do You Think Characters Influence Young Children?
Alex Russo.
I watched about..5 Wizards of Waverly Place episode, and I noticed there was a pattern. Alex's parents set certain restrictions (like every parent) and she winds up breaking every one of those restrictions. And regularly, Alex's parents say: "Don't use magic. Don't do this. Don't do that." and Alex actually does it, mainly because her parents said not to. Then they always wind up forgiving her, and she gets off the hook, and that's not reality.
