Everything about this show points to the fact that its creators wish to convey the message that children are their parent's equal. Look at the way they seat the mother and son facing eachother at the same level as if they are equals.
Look at the way they portray the mother as a complete fool with stunned look after being slapped.
Look at how they give the son and mother equal air time to explain later how they felt.
And the fact that an incident like this needs to be sorted out by Dr Phil like a court where both have an equal say shows nothing but contempt for God given authority.
You are being programmed! :tv-disturbed:
Here's someone who can watch TV!
When you can see all this stuff, TV has much less of an effect upon you.
Unfortunately, few people see all the subtle things such as the elements Zenith pointed out here.
Though I'd rather not soil myself with such filth.
I remember when we used to watch a family movie, no matter how good the movie seemed to me as a child, Dad would pick out every little subtle message in it. I remember being frustrated by this as nothing seemed good enough for him though as I have grown older I see more and more what he meant.
It is very frustrating when you see something like this and you see people not question it or bat an eye lid.
Sometimes I just want to slap them across the head to wake them up! :dwarf:
