Disney Channel is Spoiling the Children!

The new age of Disney shows. Hannah Montana, and Phineas and Ferb.  Kids are watching these shows and they start wanting to be little actors or models and wanting to have these extravagant lifestyles that even adults don’t have.

Hannah Montana, shows girls how to be a spoiled brat and throw a tantrum when they don’t get her way. Is it really realistic to go to school, go to the beach, live in a huge house and be a singing celebrity disguised by a mere blonde wig…

It’s not bad to want those type of types of things, but suddenly children start believing they are older than they really are.They are corrupted into believing that it’s alright to wear make-up and start dating by the time they’re teenagers. Then they start getting into celebrity gossip magazines instead of comic books, much less books in general.

Phineas and Ferb, why is it that only the boys get to make great inventions, go on adventures and save the world? why is it that Candice is the taddle tale and is never doing anything productive? Even in the opening video, she is just sitting in the house on the phone. The theme song alone, clearly states both sister and brother roles that children should abide by and then further explains/ details that through each episode.

They begin to try and model the behavior and roles emitted by these “Disney Stars.”
