Someone needs to get a life.
Good grief !!!!

May as well get rid of all the kids holiday shows: Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer (they pick on him), Christmas story (bb gun and fights), Frosty (has the mean greedy magician), and so on. Such a wimpy world we live in...I think shows like the View and the Today Show should be cancelled, they fill people' heads with nonsense.

"Charlie Brown is supposed to be the hero. Instead, he is kicked and demeaned at every turn, even by the adults giving out candy."

...and he doesn't give up. Like a hero.

I know this is a crazy idea and puts a real burden on the parents, but if a parent truly believes that children might be harmed by watching the show, why not just turn it off? I realize that is an extreme solution, and it would be much more satisfying to the politically correct control freaks to deny everyone the opportunity to decide for themselves, but it just might work.

Come on Anja. You want parents to actually parent? Might be a tall order.

GOOD GRIEF!!!!

I agree with all of the above. Good grief is right. Stop over-Parenting

The new bullying hysteria is utterly ridiculous. So many self-righteous alarmists are trying to conflate cases of extreme physical assault with normal unfriendly human behavior, all under the label of 'bullying,' in pursuit of their apparent desire to enforce some utopian ideal of everyone loving one another and smiling all the time.

Well.. you can't force people to like one another. And when you force kids into group socialization through school and the like, you're going to see expressions of that dislike.

You enforce certain limits to the extremes of this behavior, and you try to teach kids moral lessons about not acting like jerks. But beyond a certain point, you just have to tell them "Look, people might not always like you, and they might not always be nice to you - learning to deal with that is part of learning to live in human society." Once upon a time, America valued strength and courage. Lately I'm wondering if some people mistakenly believe that the meek have already inherited the earth...

I believe we need a multigenerational congressional investigation costing no more than $100,000,000 to investigate this situation of bullying. Someone had better get to the bottom of this issue.
Maybe ultimately a new tv warning for violence and bullying behavior. So parents can turn off those evil shows before trouble begins.

If you ask me those who tell you what you can and cannot watch are the bullies...

If this is true, then real estate tax enforcement, income tax enforcement by the IRS is definitely a form of Bullying of adults. Us adults get bullied around a lot by our government, this needs to stop. Everyone should live in peace and harmony from the cradle to the grave, supported by our government. We all need to live a Sesame street life, with Big Bird, "Obama" As our fearless leader.

All of the PC Police should just leave and shut their mouths. Everytime they open their mouths they speak STUPID!. Does anyone really believe the "newer more modern" cartoons are better than those older ones? If Charlie Brown, The Christmas Story, Frosty and the like are so bad, why was there less problems with kids back then than now? It's like an earlier post....Life is life and you are going to run into someone, somewhere that WILL treat you bad. How will you know what to do and how to handle situations if you never are exposed to something? Hey brainiac, TUNE OFF THE TV!!! Leave me alone and let me watch. I don't drink and smoke but I sure wouldn't deny you your right to do so if that's your choice.
