Are Ben 10 cartoons good for our children? what has been your experience?

My kids dont watch Cartoon Network so cant really say.

I grew up on a wide staple of cartoons and I think I turned out ok. Personally I don't like Ben 10 because I find the stories uninteresting but there's nothing wrong with kids watching it. Of course cartoon watching should be balanced with other creative activities like reading and playing outdoors to ensure a child's healthy developement.

Ben 10 is disrespectful to his parent

Depending on the age of the child, i really dont like the program.

Its not educative and its pretty violent.

My boy is 2yrs+ and he loves Ceebees.

Cheers

I don't like Ben 10 or Pokemon.
Really dumb cartoons. I wonder how they became huge franchises

you folks prolly thought the same about voltron

It's a No-No for me.. not suitable for kids.

eeerm, what is wrong with ben 10, y'all shouldn't tell me its demonic

We've had same BEN 10 at home for some months and never watched it until yesterday... it was scary for my kids and my girl wasn't comfortable with the scene unlike the boy... she kept asking some questions. A quick glance on the internet for the CD review had this...etc

My son, who just turned five, has been into Ben 10 for a while. ... I feel Ben 10 is very violent and dark. ... Negative spiritual and mental influence on kids .... facts: Effects of TV Violence on Kids *://*med.umich.edu/1libr/yourchild/tv.htm * Children ...

Very disturbing - Not appropriate for young children.

Hian!! is it the same Ben 10 I know kids are crazy about or is there another ben 10 ? I don't see anything scary about ben 10, its like saying voltron, power rangers et al has negative influence bla bla bla on kids

steph7: Hian!!

I was already in secondary school when Voltron came on air. My kids are under 10, I'd rather they didn't watch dumb cartoons

Oboy! u made my angry day............lwkmd

Seems kind of violent to me though... btw, it's boring.

Sometimes

Nigerians & their oyinbo mentality. Is Tom & Jerry appropriate for children?

azubaby: Ben 10 is disrespectful to his parent

YES.

PARENTS need to put up more control over wat their kids watch. That its good for u, doesn't mean its good for them. Some kids even watch manga cartoons, filled With voilence and demonic symbols and chants..
Ben 10 Might be a 'softer' version. Always have responsible adult monitor wat ur kids view if ur not there. And enforece PARENTAL CONTROL on your electronics! OUR world is now filled with extreme corruption and indecency. SOME cartoons can corrupt a child's mind, same way P.ORN can corrupt the mind of a teen.

nop...@ al....na illuminati sef wit avatar,simpsons nd co...nt gud 4 children especiali 9ja children cos u no ft confuse dem easily

Kids love violent cartoons generally. I did as a kid. Haven't turned out badly, at least I don't think so. A kid will always prefer Samurai X to Dora, even the 5 year olds.
Unless you're going to talk about the spiritual aspect and how 'demonic' they are, I don't see what's wrong with them. That is of course, if your kid isn't too young.

i'm still single but ll not allow my kids to watch such a hostile cartoon

Ben 10 or no Ben 10,pikin weh wan spoil go spoil
Shikina.....


Me I watch WWF from small..

ur kid na superman e wn imitate ooo...lwkmd

I dont like it one bit,cant even place the reason. Too violent for kids anyways

It seems the cartoons these days are just not it. The truth is that many cartoons have inappropriate scenes for kids, parents must know what their kids watch and have discussions about problematic cartoon characters in a way the kid can understand.

Kids imitate a lot so parents have to be clear on what behaviors are not acceptable.

evil programming

My brothers and i grew up watching it, they still watch it occasionally, we all turned out fine. Its an okay cartoon.
