Just a thought/rant

Is anyone else ever still bothered by bad language or scenes?! Or is anyone else at least bothered by the fact that they possibly aren't so bothered by bad language and scenes anymore?

It's sad how tolerant we as a people are becoming.

Definitely. Josh and I have really been struggling to find movies that aren't full of junk. We don't really watch tv, so when we feel like watching a movie, it seems impossible to find a good wholesome movie. It's why we don't really plan on letting our kids watch too much tv. Disney movies for us!

We aren't really bothered, because we ALWAYS check screenit or a similar site before seeing any movie. That being said we do not watch very many movies and hardly any tv. And, thanks to how we watch tv my kids don't do any channel surfing and only watch what I set to record.

It just shows how much advertising and media has influenced our lives. When we surround ourselves with things good/bad, it then becomes the norm. Keeping our lives and homes free of all that stuff is and is going to continue to be SO important. :) I hope you are feeling well and not having too much morning sickness or maybe even past that part now. :)

ps...It seems once you become a mom (or pregnant to be a mom) you notice these things even more. it's depressing.

To be honest, I've actually been bothered by it for quite a while, meaning before becoming pregnant. We've tried to be extra careful about our movies and tv. I just learn more and more how use to things people are. When I am at other peoples homes and see tv, I sometimes see commercials that I'm amazed are allowed. It's horrible.
Anyway, I should try screenit much more often too.

You know what bothers me even more then TV and movies, is when you are out in public and people start swearing. I shouldn't have to hear the f word in the grocery store!

I'm always disgusted with the approval of sad situations in the world. The older I get, the more disgusted I am with the rest of the world for accepting such filth.
Thanks for the update on your pregnancy. I had no idea that you were far enough along to be half way thru it. Have you felt o.k. during this wonderful time in your life?
Good for Jon with his school work.
