What's wrong with our youth? Is it a psychosocial disorder? Is it the parents?

Your saying "now there's Adult Swim" had absolutely ZERO to do with my comment that the amount of TV programming for children has increased hundredfold. It would have made as much (or as little) sense if you would have said "now there's NYPD Blue."

Oh dear God, have a cow already! So I misunderstood you. I was responding to the post about how kids have a ton of things to watch on tv now. That's why I mentioned "Adult Swim".

But Adult Swim is not for kids to watch (hence its name). So why mention it?

So what?! They still watch it! Porn sites aren't for kids either, but they still look at them. Guns aren't for kids, but they still use them. So what's your point?

My point is it had nothing to do w/ the comment I made about increased programming EXPRESSLY MADE FOR CHILDREN.
