There are elections.
There is farming.
There is definitely commerce (restaurants and animal parlours).
Only the dogs (and 1 cat) out of all the animals can speak so the chicken being unable to isn’t unusual.
I think those were the main things said in that article and they were all incorrect.
Source - a parent who watched them with their child.
- jclulow 3y agoAlso, an apparently nostalgia-rich rose coloured recollection of the artistic expression present in earlier hand-animated cartoons that I suspect would not stand up to serious scrutiny.
- hutzlibu 3y agoI had to forbid Tom and Jerry to my toddler. It is just 95% violence, various forms of hitting someone on the head. And after my boy mimicked this behavior to his sister ... I stopped this good old times cartoon.
- n3storm 3y agoYou let them watch Tom and Jerry in the first because you never saw them or because you never saw The Simpsons? Glad you made the right move anyway :)
- hutzlibu 3y agoWell, I am quite liberal by default and think children can handle way more, than most adults realize ... so he can discover what he likes and he liked Tom and Jerry, but there are certain limits of what is healthy and what is depicted as normal behavior. So bybye Tom and Jerry and Minions. And the normal paw patrol behavior is mostly trying to figure out problems with the help of technology. So I think that is allright, even though the social interactions could be way better.
- enqk 3y agoAs a child owning a cat, I could not stand watching Tom and Jerry because it was just mean.
- cperciva 3y agoPeppa pig, too. My wife and I banned it from our toddler after seeing older kids copying violent behaviours from it.
- jeffreygoesto 3y agoMaybe a toddler should not watch at all? Peppa Pig is actually interesting in that it has many puns/stereotypes in for the parents that go way over the children's heads.
- cookie_monsta 3y agoBut then my peers and I watched literally hundreds of episodes of this show (not because we liked it, but because there were only 3 channels to choose from) and we never mimicked any of that behaviour further than regular dumb kid play violence. What has changed?
- hutzlibu 3y agoMaybe you were older? I was talking around age 3. "further than regular dumb kid play violence." And that is quite relative and hard to judge without seeing it.
- justsomehnguy 3y agotoddler noun : a person who toddles especially : a young child usually between one *and three years old * Sorry, but showing T&J to a three years old is entirely on you. You knew what it's literally a slapstick comedy with crash, bang and explosives. Also, where is Hanna-Barbera T&J which was made between 1940 to 1960 and was made to be shown in cinemas for the adults. And after that... there is no T&J after that.
