"Family Friendly"

Many of us out there call a few certain words "swear words" or "cussing". Now, the thing about this words, is certain people have decided they are socially unacceptable. In deciding that such words are "bad", all we're doing is saying telling people that the best way to get some attention is to cuss.

With all this, it's caused words to be taken completely out of context.

Now, in the latest "family friendly" movies, you find that no matter who you are, you seem to completely avoid saying anything society considers vulgar. It also decides that "bad" people are very good at avoiding harsh words, and hides any of the problems there are in society.

It creates an illusion that the world is all happy and sunshine, and that "right" always wins.

So, what we're trying to tell our future children is that so long as you do the right thing, you're going to get far in the world. We define right as being happy-go-lucky and thinking either not at all, or thinking far beyond the average person.

Why do you think kids find themselves so easily scared by someone wearing a different style of clothing then Mr. Happy-Go-Lucky?

At any rate, I define "family friendly" as a misrepresentation of most anything, and more of an escape from the world then anything else, and we spend far too much time doing that, and not enough time getting stuff done.
