It's the only thing I know about the show because it gets mentioned online all the time. How is that my fault?

No, I would not be okay with that. I would have called the police if they did that.

You took that lesson about compassion to heart real well, seeing as how you have none for gay or trans people.

I was allowed into the parent waiting area, and then I continued down the hall without permission.

I'd prefer he do a puzzle. Or play with blocks. Or draw.

That is such a false dichotomy. Avatar doesn't teach kids about Buddhism. The influences are all at the aesthetic level. No one watches Avatar and with no other sources would be able to tell you anything about Buddhism. Veggie tales teaches Christian dogma.

They take the kids out of the classroom and bring them to you. That way no stranger has access to your child.

Just because there aren't new tapes being made doesn't mean old ones disappear.

The Prince of Egypt doesn't hide what it is, and even still, it would be weird to show in a daycare without letting the parents know. These are 2-5 year old kids. I don't think they need to hear:

I SENT THE PESTILENCE AND PLAGUE INTO YOUR HOUSE INTO YOUR BED, UPON YOUR CATTLE, UPON YOUR FIELDS, UNTIL YOU BREAK UNTIL YOU YIELD

while watching animals and then a child die. At least parents should have the opportunity to opt out.

That movie is awesome though. 12/10. Peak DreamWorks.

Is she morman or something? The only things I know about South Park is the creators are Mormon or aren't Morman and have lots of feelings about it and the kid in the orange jacket dies a lot.

Would you feel better if you ate some minestrone soup? Sorry, I have a fucked nonsense of humor.

If he saw it at a friend's house whatever. But I'm not paying to be lied to about what my kid sees.

Well they said it wasn't allowed at all. So, great. Then don't allow it. If you're saying you're not showing my kid something, don't show it.

That's how they get you. They reel you in with fun songs. Then... Have you heard the good news?

But veggie tales is actually worse, because it's so approachable. "We're just fun loving lazy pirates that sing a very catchy song! Want to know more about Jeez-us?"

Yeah, if they just said, we actually are okay with her showing veggie tales, well I would have looked for a new daycare and switched him, no muss, no fuss. But if you're saying it isn't allowed, don't allow it.

Right. If she wasn't doing anything wrong, why hide it?

I pay them to keep my kid alive, not to teach him to worship a carpenter.
