Caillou

i hate that show

My son has watched that show for about three years, and I think it's a great show. I don't feel anything negative about it.  :-)

its my little guys favorite show... I dont mind it very much... hes very whiney BUT... my DS isnt to bad... :)

My daughter loves that show, but I never really actually pay attention to it.

I watched one episode and that was enough for me. 

 A lot of educational shows are actually acheiving exactly the opposite of what they are trying to accomplish.  I get that they are trying to show that the negative behavior does more damage than good, but kids at the target age they're going for don't grasp the morals of the stories.  They just see the bad behavior, and then model it.  Heck, my 6 year old is only just now starting to grasp the concept of the moral of the story, and able to understand the reasons the behavior shown wasn't good.  I have always had to be SO careful of what I let him watch.  Anything with even a resemblance to violence had to be avoided.

I don't spank my kids and I'm against child abuse but I would punch Caillou in the face! Sorry...just had to vent;)

it's banned at my house.  that kid drives me crazy.

I can't stand that whiny little fucker!!!

We've been watching it at bedtime. I've actually started to like it. I think he models good behavior and interaction with peers, I've seem empathy and doing what he knows is right. Sure he whines sometimes but he's supposed to be 4. Gotta be realistic.
