I think it's pretty safe to say we've all watched TV at some point in our lives. I myself don't find it normal to plop on to the couch and watch some fake reality show or cheesy cartoon but I know a bad role model when I see one.
According to these guys such people like Kim Kardashian and Squidward have made the list of 10 Worst TV Role Models of 2012. According to the article Kim focuses on appearance and not achievement. There's nothing wrong in keeping yourself clean in healthy but putting beauty over achievement ins't worth it. In 10 years when you working McDonald'd your going to regret putting in all that time into looking pretty and not on your studies. Besides why would you want to be famous for a sex-tape and a 72-day marriage?
Why would a character like Squidward make the list though? The list says he is selfish. I don't think anyone would even want to be like Squidward in the first place! Squidward is just naturally grumpy just like there are naturally grumpy people in the world. We just need to learn to deal with it.
One person I'd like to see on the list is Bender from Futurama. Although I've had my laughs with some things he has said I don't think little kids should be watching it. I'm not the person to copy what I see off TV but I know some kids do. Younger kids can copy bad words or sentences from Bender and get themselves into trouble at school and at home.
Kids can get easily get on the wrong path due to TV when I think they should be doing things more productive than watching TV. And where are these kids' parents? A parent should always monitor what media a child takes in. I consider this a heads up for parents!
