5431ArticleMr MagicMy parents gave me an SP for Christmas in 2004. I had old-school games like Castlevania, Donkey Kong and a Namco collection. I also had Mario and Luigi: Superstar Saga and a couple of Pokemon games. Jun 04, 2021View
3061ArticleVaporman87My parents were not concerned with what I watched growing up, so long as they knew it didn't contain nudity. And even so, I still somehow managed to see the occasional slip of some skin in some major film releases. And today, I don't see that as a good thing. In fact, it's pretty disappointing to me that my parents didn't care enough to restrict what I was seeing. Maybe some think that they really had it made if they shared a similar childhood stripped of too many restrictions on movies. But I don't feel that way. I feel like my parents neglected to attempt to teach me some very important lessons that arise from watching certain things. In short, I didn't (and in some ways, still don't) feel like I was important enough to them to make an effort. Now that I'm a father, I make every attempt to avoid watching rated R movies. The only exposure to questionable content that I have allowed myself to experience has been in the form of games, like Watchdogs and Fallout 3. And even then, I hate that I have to see and hear certain things in order to enjoy the games as a whole. I want my kids to grow up knowing that I cared enough to restrict what they saw, because I wanted them protected and wanted them to make adult choices when it comes to what they see. There are certain things that kids are responsible enough to make choices with, but film choice is not among them. Given too much freedom, bad choices will eventually be made and their mental and emotional health can suffer. I know mine did. I was more frightened and confused as a child than I could have been, many times because of things I watched. Had I not seen certain things, I know that I would have felt less nervous and concerned about death and sexuality. I'm not going to allow that to happen to my own children.Rated R for RADNov 02, 2015View
3082Articleechidna64My parents weren't very strict on R-Rated movies. I would actually leave the room on my own if the movie was too "sick" or scary. When I was ten, my dad took us to the movies to see Flubber but it was sold out so we saw Starship Troopers instead, my first R-Rated theater experience and by gawd it was awesome!

3972ArticlepikachuloverMy prepubescent neighbor liked to watch Xuxa. His older sister and I thought her show was boring. At first her show was on at a good time like at 9AM then when the ratings dropped they moved it to like 6AM. When I was a teenager I got some jelly shoes and wore them to school circa 1998. All the girls kept calling them Xuxa shoes. I had never heard them called that before. Apparently that's what they call jelly shoes in other parts of the world. http://www.inthe80s.com/clothes/francophile86hotmailcom0.shtml I had never heard of Steampipe Alley until about 2 years ago when I saw somebody mention it in a comment on youtube, and I searched for some clips. My dad and I used to watch Gladiators 2000 on Sunday mornings. One of Ryan's co-hosts was Valerie Rae Miller who later went onto One Saturday Morning and Dark Angel. My dad had a crush on her. In the fall of 1995 my class went to a taping of Wild Animal Games. Another little known game show. Seacrest was the host. The only reason I knew who he was because I watched Gladiators 2000. None of the other people on that field trip had seen his other show. Anyway Seacrest was a jerk when my friends and I tried to meet him. Five Game Shows No One Talks About AnymoreJun 27, 2017View
