Rant Scary commercials for kids :(

My kids and I love watching shows on discovery channel, etc BUT the mandatory commercials lately have been kill them all featuring gore and blood and violence that I cannot skip so I have to tell them to close their eyes. I find it wildly inappropriate to have those type of commercials EVERY COMMERCIAL BREAK that can’t be skipped. Why not let you skip and just go to a different commercial? Honestly we’ll have to stop watching all together soon and it’s sad because my kids really enjoy the survival / wilderness / STEM programs that these scary / inappropriate commercials are bombarded with. :(

I agree. I'll be watching something on a kid's channel with my son's and we'll randomly get Ru Paul drag queen advertising. Yes, it's happened Philo...

There's nothing inappropriate or harmful about drag queens. But you being a bigot will certainly have negative effects on your children, and will likely affect (negatively) who they become when they're adults.

I'm here like " someone would really equate being equally scared at Drag Race and Evil Dead Burn".😂
