okay and you hippy be probably wonder what i have against an education and informative show like barney . well and i have a lot of hate against it for these reason represent1 . it teach that have a personality and individualism be immoral . no one on the show have a personality . everyone dress alike and talk alike and act alike and dance alike . even in the episode call be an individual and kid try to tell barney about what they like and everyone on the planet should do what i like . do you wan na teach your kid that be an individual be wrong . 2. a stranger be a friend and you haven not meet episode . while seemingly harmless and the show producer soonfound that it could also be extremely dangerous for young child . in fact and several young barney lover from across the u. s. fell victim to pedophile and who be use the show friendly message to lure child away from their parent . the episode have since be pull and but the damage have be do . so called innocent mistake in program and like this one and clearly show why parent need to watch television with their child . 3. if your not happy all the time and you be a bad person . no one seem to show any other emotion but happiness and no matter which situation they be in . if the child parent get mad or sad for some reason and the child may think of mommy or daddy differently . not a good message at all . 4. magic solves everything . seem like every problem be solve by magic . at least in show like fraggle rock and it teach u that magic can backfire at it be best to solve problem on your own . do barney teach this . no and of course not . there have to be magic in there . and the problem be and a lot of two year old can not tell fantasy from reality and and might think their parent and sibling or relative can use magic to solve everything and yet become confuse when they can not use magic and think they be weird . another boner pull again . 5. barney make no distinction between steal and share . he have even specifically say that steal be okay if the person you steal from doesn not mind . kid can learn that if you really want something and stealing be a perfectly acceptable way to get it . this be not something that preschooler need authority figure to tell them . 6. if i just have the right thing and i can solve all my problem . whenever the kid have a problem and barney give them whatever they need to solve it . the message be send here be don not try to think to solve this . it too much work and and the solution probably wouldn not work anyway . just use this . because of this and child could stop think through thing ( barney say it be too much work ) and become dependent on the right object . ( the right shoe and the right food and the right computer and the right exercise machine . ) this be obviously a good message for the barney marketer and but it not good for preschooler . 7. the message that cheat be okay . in another episode the child be involve in a contest to carry a peanut on a spoon without drop it . one child put peanut butter on his spoon and and easily win . the child be then reward for his creative thinking and when the child in fact bent the rule and and change the game so that he could win . this teach that cheating be good and you win and people think that you be creative and when in real life you will often be disqualify and or bad and and severely dislike by other competitor who play by the rule . 8. do the kid in this show eat anything else besides cake and cooky and candy . that teach that it be okay to eat ton of junk food and avoid healthy food and despite barney so call health food song . other than that and everyone in the show eat junk food . no wonder there be so many obese kid in america and europe . and finally . most other kid television show teach creative problem solve well and without have to resort to magic . barney could also have do that but instead decide to use the method that be a ) best for the marketer and b ) take the least time and money for script . it a blatant sellout that show just how little the lyon group actually care about child . that be my rant for you all .
