i be five when the show make it debut in 1958 and at a late point and be a regular viewer . i remember that i really enjoy the show and along with leave it to beaver and my three son and ozzie and harriet and dick van dyke and rerun of i love lucy and the real mccoys and etc . i be now enjoy the first season of donna reed on dvd and have watch the first two episode . donna stone be show to be an intelligent and well mannered and problem solving and serene and stay at home mom and similar to june cleaver and in contrast to lucy ricardo . in episode 2 and i especially like how ms. reed become a surrogate dad and trading in her dress for sweat and box glove and while teach her son how to defend himself physically against a much large bully . while none of the mother in the neighborhood i grow up in and include my own and exactly meet the idealistic standard portray by ms. reed and it be refresh to see good manner and intelligent decision make prevail at the end of the day and in contrast to today accepted standard of vulgarity and selfishness and indifference among one neighbor . i can not imagine jeff and mary stone be tell by their parent that trespass in their neighbor yard be okay and leave a dog outside to bark all day be acceptable and or tell their mother to shut up in a supermarket in front of everyone .
