[QUOTE="RFisher, post: 3771297, member: 3608"] The strange thing is how my 7yo son has seem to have already picked this up. When I recently got my [i]Star Trek: The Animated Series[/i] DVDs, I asked if he'd like to watch an episode with me. He wasn't interested, but when I started it, he sat down & watched it. I said, "I thought you weren't interested." He said, "I would've been if you'd told me what 'animated' meant." (^_^) Even growing up in a house where it is clear that the Pixar, Disney's [i]Robin Hood[/i] & [i]Sword in the Stone[/i], & Fleischer [i]Superman[/i] DVDs are dad's; or that the [i]Animaniacs[/i] videos are mom's; despite the fact that he only watched [i]Powerpuff Girls[/i] because I watched them & that I'd watch [i]Samurai Jack[/i] afterwards even though he didn't like it; or seeing me watch [i]Teen Titans[/i] even if he doesn't; despite catching mom & dad watching [i]The Simpsons[/i] or [i]Futurama[/i] or knowing that I & my co-workers went to [i]The Simpsons[/i] movie; he still seems to have picked up a bit of this attitude. That's not even mentioning the [i]anime[/i] he knows I own or rent--some of which he isn't allowed to watch yet. [/QUOTE]
