We don't have a TV, but occasionally we buy or borrow a movie which we watch on our big screen computer. :) We DO watch telivision at our aunts when we go there. The little kids like to watch cartoons, and I guess they're isn't anything 'bad' about those. If us big kids stay up late enough, we can get some of the really cool survival shows and stuff. But I am glad that we don't have a TV... but I think occasionaly is okay. :)Rachel Hippshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02160698815593087137noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3707967635101530299.post-52881268894293158402010-03-31T15:40:15.170-04:002010-03-31T15:40:15.170-04:00Thank you!

That would be difficult to have a TV in your own house... I'm so thankful we don't have one. :)<br /><br />Thank you again. :) It's only by the grace of God! (that and good parents and good books. :))Carissahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17385741682234449335noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3707967635101530299.post-12743733104024863602010-03-28T21:40:50.510-04:002010-03-28T21:40:50.510-04:00Great post.

Even the "good" stuff usually contains immodesty, curse words here and there, and tons of other stuff that we shouldn't be entertaining ourselves with. I do struggle though because I live in a family that watches T.V. (they are Christians, they just don't share my convictions...), so it's hard to stay completely away from it. <br /><br />I'm glad to know that there are young people like you out there who are still trying to live holy and dedicated lives in the midst of this evil world. Keep up the good posts.Dakotahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05866858919682956165noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3707967635101530299.post-44784883371407652192010-02-02T21:41:58.594-05:002010-02-02T21:41:58.594-05:00Hello Mr. Barr!

I am curious... how did you find this blog?<br /><br />Yes, that is definitely a danger about TV! <br /><br />There are some good things on TV... but for me, I wonder if it's worth those few good things. There are so many other ways to learn things-- like books. :)<br /><br />That is great! I am sure your wife likes that very much. :)<br /><br />Blessings,<br />CarissaCarissahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17385741682234449335noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3707967635101530299.post-10944368692592606922010-02-02T17:20:01.058-05:002010-02-02T17:20:01.058-05:00For me, I worry for all the kids who watch TV and ...For me, I worry for all the kids who watch TV and soak in all the subtle messages. They see poor behavior normalized, shameful things made shameless...etc...<br /><br />I think there are good things on TV too, but to decipher between the good and the bad takes wisdom and maturity. <br /><br />:) right now, I don't have any channels on my TV--literally zero... and I like it. I read a lot more and write a lot more and spend more time with my wife :)Brandonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16896507696981802763noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3707967635101530299.post-51023631089597511532010-02-02T14:33:51.866-05:002010-02-02T14:33:51.866-05:00Rebeka: Yes, thank God for wise parents!!
