OBAMA ON HIS DAUGHTERS TELEVISION VIEWING


Barack Obama Doesn't Like His Daughters Watching the Kardashians, Says Michelle

This morning, I stumbled on this story about Barrack not liking his daughters watch the Kardashians, I couldn't but just read through it. I am also aware that our children are watching something worse than the Kardashians. How do I know? You will ask; Many things we see around today points to the obvious; the mode of dressing, the dance steps, the lack of respect for parents and elders! Hmm, like joke like joke, what we termed the western culture is fast creeping in and eroding our beautiful cultures. What amazes me most is the carefree attitude of we mothers. Now tell me, how will a mother who enjoys watching the Kardashians and sees nothing wrong in their acts advise her daughter? I can readily see them both in front of the TV watching and exchanging notes. (Sad). There is absolutely nothing wrong with watching with your daughters because right then, you may be able to guide her and ask if she learnt a thing or two. My major concern is this; when mom are at work, what kind of programs do  the kids watch?.  To  some moms "Parental Control button" is only a feature on our  gadgets and not necessarily one that must be activated

Even though the Americans  live in a Kardashian nation, PresidentBarack Obama isn't exactly a fan of reality TV's royal family!
First Lady Michelle Obama tells iVillagethat her hubby, 50, doesn't like Sasha, 10, and Malia, 13, keeping up with Kim, Kourtney and Khloe Kardashian's antics on the boob tube. 
Michelle, 47, says that like most parents, she and Barack regulate how much TV their daughters watch and what they're allowed to see. "Barack really thinks some of the Kardashians -- when they watch that stuff -- he doesn't like that as much," she told iVillage.
"But I sort of feel like if we're talking about it, and I'm more concerned with how they take it in -- what did you learn when you watched that," Michelle explained. "And if they're learning the right lessons, like, that was crazy, then I'm like, okay."
While the Kardashian family is known for their big spending (Kim purchased a $325,000 Ferrariearlier this month), their upbringing wasn't entirely different from Sasha and Malia's.
Michelle tells iVillage she doesn't want her girls raised as "little princesses."
"They have to make their own beds, to clean up their rooms," she says. "Sasha has started doing the laundry. Malia was supposed to be doing it but [Sasha] is really into laundry."
Khloe, 27, told Babycenter last month about her "Cinderella" upbringing. "When I turned twelve, my mom's housekeeper was not allowed to enter my room," she said. Kris Jenner told her at the time: "You're twelve now. You do all your own laundry. You make your bed."
Khloe said when Kendall and Kylie Jenner were born, "I had to do all the dishes and I cooked for them. But honestly now, I'm a great cook and I'm OCD clean and I like that my parents did that."
