How I Utterly Failed As A Parent
Tonight I let Chicken watch the most recent episode of Weeds. The show typically contains the activities of a housewife turned pot dealer and some rather interesting humor but overall nothing terrible. No sex, no nudity, and mostly just raunchy conversation. Although I rarely let Chicken watch adult television I was feeling generous and I knew the show would amuse him.
Holy fuck, people. Let's do a recap of the things that were featured on Weeds this week, shall we? Obviously, this post contains spoilers. Go watch the episode and I'll see you in 1/2 hour, okay? Tonight, in Sam's living room Weeds contained:
At the end of the day, I kept watching Weeds with Chicken thinking that it simply could not get worse and wow I was wrong. Today, I failed as a parent. There is always tomorrow to fuck it up equally as well.
Holy fuck, people. Let's do a recap of the things that were featured on Weeds this week, shall we? Obviously, this post contains spoilers. Go watch the episode and I'll see you in 1/2 hour, okay? Tonight, in Sam's living room Weeds contained:
- A naked rear view of a man within the first 5 seconds.
- A 17 year old boy fucking and going down on a neighbor lady that has a 10 year old child. Naked rear view of man/boy while eating pussy. No pussy or boobies were visible. In fact, there wasn't even a female ass completely naked. Hmph.
- A woman in black lace panties being spanked by a man. Both parties enjoyed the spanking. Later, the woman displays her red/bruised bottom with a grin on her face.
- Two children (aged 13 ish, a boy and a girl) looking at nude pictures of the boy's mother (the pictures are 20 years old approx).
- The 13 year old girl is a lesbian and really enjoys the pictures of the boy's mother and leers at the mother the next time she sees her in person.
- Later, the 13ish year old boy views the pictures of his mother while in bed and then it is insinuated that he starts to masturbate.
- Two men in bed making out, a king-sized bottle of lube at the bedside (TB says it was king-sized, I had no feeling on the matter).
At the end of the day, I kept watching Weeds with Chicken thinking that it simply could not get worse and wow I was wrong. Today, I failed as a parent. There is always tomorrow to fuck it up equally as well.

Sam, you are not a bad parent. You just need to use this as a teaching moment. You know, like this: "Chicken, it is NEVER okay to jerk it to pictures of your mom." Or, "Chicken, how did the man on man action make you feel?" Just be VERY serious and mature. All will be well.
Btw, big day is one month from today. Eek!!
Oh - weeds is definately one of my favorite shows (I download it on my iphone and watch it during Taekwondo and baton practice while other mom's excercise and shit.)
However, it is probably (ok definately) NOT for kids. There is some sort of major sex (teenage and a little S&M) and drugs in each episode. Which is probably why I love it so much. (holy crap I can see myself as the main character in this show - barely hanging on and just trying to make ends meet.)
Anyway - love the show. And in regards to being a bad parent. Trust me - there are many many many worse things you can do then letting your kid watch adult-centric television. This won't scar him. He'll probably look back on this and think you were the coolest mom on earth. :)
Sam, It is *much* too soon to throw in the towel and claim failure. lol! Back to work, Mom!
Hah! I find it very amusing and fascinating that you still worry (a little) that you're not doing it right. All you need to do is see how cool your kid is as a reflection of your efforts. Need I say more?
Lord you are the furthest thing from failure. It sounds like I need to check this show out ;)
Anyway, it's all stuff he, unfortunately, has probably heard about at school or in passing through other shows. Knowing Chicken, it probably rolled right off his back and he is totally cool with it.
Yeah, that issue of Weeds was a topper and just a bit symptomatic of how the show has fallen off a bit since Agrestic burned. However, on the bad parenting front, it can't top the time I watched the anal sex episode of Sex and the City with my parents and my then 14 year old daughter. My mother was getting pretty uneasy and left the room as she announced, "I can't watch this any more." My father queried, "Why? Are you getting hot?" My daughter needed months of therapy.
