An increasingly popular TV show titled "The Secret Life of the American Teenager" combines anything and everything a mother tries to protect her children from viewing and rolls it into one soap opera for teens.
ABC Family is responsible for showing such racy content, when instead it should be adhering to its name by airing family-friendly content.
Mothers like us need to be aware of this popular sexualized TV show that won a 2008 Teen Choice Award. According to ABC Family, it's their # 1 original series of all time. The LA Times reports that the series is averaging 3.8 million viewers per episode.
"Secret Life" is brutally honest about teens and sex, so much so that it condones teenage sex, adultery and a host of other sins. The series airs Monday nights at 8:00 p.m. EDT on ABC Family (owned by Disney- ABC Television). This series includes:
* A teenage girl who becomes pregnant after a one night stand
* A "player" who takes advantage of multiple girls because of his sex addiction
* The school "tramp" who basks in her sexual encounters
* A boy who is molested by his father as a child
* Adulterous parents
* A shallow view of Christianity as portrayed through a "ditzy" blonde
* Favorable discussions of gay marriage and gay adoption
*See a detailed review of "Secret Life"
*This is toxic poison to our children! Ask your children if they are watching this show, and consider making it "off limits" in your home.
Take Action*
All mothers are familiar with Hershey's. Sadly, they are supporting the negative influence of "Secret Life" by sponsoring the series with huge advertising dollars.
Let them know that while Hershey's is a household name, we do not approve their financial backing of this program.
*Send Hershey's an email letter and ask them to stop sponsoring "Secret Life" through advertising.
