The Affects TV Has on Our Culture and Kids
Why MTV’s popular show Skins has many parents concerned and what you and your spouse can do to help bridge the gap between media and your kids.

For many married couples with young teens, or for couples that have younger children who get free-reign of the remote control or have a television in their room, keeping tabs on what type of TV they’re watching can go right out the window when it comes to monitoring them on a daily basis. For instance, the highly publicized and risqué television show, Skins, debuted on Viacom’s MTV with a viewership of 3.3 million viewers and was its highest rated show in the 12-34 year-old demographic. Viacom, by the way, is the same company that brings you Dora the Explorer on Nickelodeon. You and your spouse don’t have to look too far to see the concerns with the show Skins—just watch the trailer if you haven’t already seen the show or read about it in the news.
