Family Friendly, huh? Question then...

[GreySpectre]

...what does Family Friendly mean to you? In our modern world of absolutely madness it seems some people think certain things are fine for kids that are clearly and obviously NOT. So, to clarify, family friendly would mean absolutey NO sexual content or references of any kind, and no drug or alcohol use or references of any kind. Does the game meet that criteria?

If it does this looks like an instant buy for my family.

so no bugs bunny no invader zim, no animaniacs, no muppets (they did a drug awarness episode) alot of cartoons actually would not meet your criteria.

I'm well aware, and I consider MANY cartoons to be gutter trash. Animaniacs were trash, Bugs Bunny/Looney Toons has a ton of content I would not let in my house, etc. We don't allow anything Nickelodian, especially Disney, in our house because how much those companies push "The Message" propaganda far too much to be remotely trusted.

Me personally? I watch all kinds of stuff growing up. But my parents generation is notorious for not really giving too much of a crap about what kind of content was in front of us. They never really were all that analytical or critically thinking. An example is that Bug Bunny is often quite perverted. I watched it as a kid, and that's how I know that. As far as what "The Message" is...google that with Critical Drinker.

As far as what we(my wife and I) allow in our house, we have found a few shows that were totally acceptable. VeggieTales being a main stay, also a show called Puffin Rock and one called Octonauts. I haven't ever seen anything that really crossed a line with any of them. If we were to show them something truly old school I'd go with Mr. Rogers.

Basically it comes down to realizing as a parent that the world is constantly seeking to influence your kid(s), expose them to adult content, etc. My view is the only people who should be choosing when kids learn about things(and in the proper way) is the parents.

I love playing games with the kid(s), but it's been the some of the Lego games, Trine series, Spyro, etc. But I'm always on high alert in the world today.

while i disagree with your views on kids cartoons (i do agree Mr rogers and veggietales are good picks) there your kids and you do what you think is best for them also probably already know this and do this but just in-case keep them far away from youtube kids because regardless of are differences in opinions i know we can both agree that the stuff on that is just brain dead at best and at worst is just really messed up

[GreySpectre]

Totally agree, Youtube "Kids" is not remotely for "kids". In my experience it's exactly where the most perverted put their channels.

My suspicion is you are concerned about lgbt content but you haven’t explicitly said that so that’s your business. My best suggestion would be to wait until the game comes out and can be reviewed by a site like Common Sense Media so that you can learn exactly what the game will contain before you purchase.

Truth is:
1. Babies wont understand if there sexual content or not.
2. Teenagers deserve a healthy amoung or sexual content, like in old Disney movies, you know, Jasmin and Peter Pen and such.

And it's very funny, because humor of ps2 and psp family "oh, cute animal protagonist!" games was all this and in large quantities. )) Fortunately, the children, including me, most likely did not understand those jokes.

Family friendly mean, No drugs, Limited sex and Limited violence. limited sex means only heterosexual and nothing more than a kiss that last for a limited time. Limited violence largely mean no gore, blood or heavy deformities.

Ya know...I could definitely agree with your description of it. A small level of "romance"(and straight is a must), that isn't crossing the line into sexual, is definitely fine. And obviously there is going to be some level of "cartoon violence" or something...but I agree blood and gore is not for kids.

It's rather sad when I think about how much messed up stuff I, and everyone I know in my generation, were exposed to at a very early age.

So short translation, you don't want anything "woke" in the game.
As a parent myself, I get it. However, I don't want the developers to change their vision to this game. This game has co-op so my child and I will be playing this and if he has any questions about subject matter, It's my job to answer them.

I would rather give him an explanation than from his friends.
Because we can't control that.

That's very true...that's why I'm very careful about who my kids friends are. Also, I prefer to be the one to decide when my kid(s) are old enough for those subjects to be brought up and explained.

I agree with this.
