Next week, my favorite shows are back for a new season. I admit to being an NCIS and Mentalist fan. Ever since I was a little girl, I’ve been attracted to who-done-it shows where the bad guys get justice in the end. What shows are your teens excited about? Glee would be a good guess. And on the raunchier end, Jersey Shore. Yep, they’re both back for another season. If your teen is a TV watcher, it would behoove you as a parent to know what he or she is watching, and, more importantly, WHY they are attracted to what they watch. One of my best tips for parents whose kids watch TV (that would be most of them), is to watch WITH them, and discuss what is going on in the show. Here’s a link with the new shows targeted at teens, as well as the returning shows with youth appeal. This link just gives a brief description, with no moral analysis, so it’s up to you to do your homework and know what your children are feeding their hearts and brains.
