Are the children of today beyond saving?
>>
Yes.
>>
>>81478334
get with the times old man
>>
>>81478334
There's a difference between captive audiences and interactive choice making.

Back when animaniacs were nostalgic to us, it was pretty much the only thing to watch.

Pick things people WANT to look at these days. Because that's the competition winning out. Stuff like anime that doesn't have people standing and talking all the time (bleach is bad, DBZ is bad, naruto is bad, but sailor moon is ok for her). Pick cartoons that actually do stuff instead of being one theme, like code lyoko.

>grown men open and play with toys on YouTube
Is that actually a thing? It kind of scares me that so many kids are enamored with videos for unboxing toys and whatnot. Just really throws me off.

>>
>>81478506
>It kind of scares me that so many kids are enamored with videos for unboxing toys and whatnot.

Welcome to the future. If kids can't get a rush from unboxing the toy themselves, they can at least get a sort of contact high from watching others do it.

The fact that they can imprint on this as "normal adult" behavior is even more worrying in my opinion.
>>
>>81478334
>I'm gonna force this kid to have fun with something I used to enjoy by shoving it down their throat!!
>why don't they like it???

Anyway, Animaniacs is pretty dated at times. That's what you get with topical humor though. And while you may understand it, it's alienating to people who don't, like forcing an inside joke to a group of friends (which I'm sure you're guilty of doing too)
>>
Isn't 4 kinda young for Animaniacs?

>>81478334
Maybe you should let him watch some cartoons that are actually good.

This. My 11 year old sister spends most of her days watching old cartoons that don't play on the TV. Most of the times I'm surprised when she asks about a show since it was before her time. If it's good it'll last and kid's will find it somehow.

>>81479038
>He's fucking three. He can't understand anything higher than Sesame Street or Teletubbies.
Nah, that stuffs for younger kids. He likes Little Einsteins and Mickey Mouse Clubhouse right now but he's getting a little too old for those.
>If he wants to watch garbage on YouTube, you take the damn tablet out of his hands and do outdoors stuff with him.
He doesn't like sports all too much but we have a lot of fun going outside and playing with foam swords.

Dude, not OP but....kids like to whatch again and again the same shows.

Because of that I show to him things that I like, like Dexter's, Samurai Jack, Son of the Sea, Totoro and others.

I showed to him old things, and we whatch together new things too, like Adventure Time, SU and Gumball. But I don't force him to whatch what he didn't want.

He loved Star Wars when I showed him, but he hated Symbionic Titan. Its fine.

>>81478408
I don't really know what you're trying to say with that last sentence.

Are you trying to say that these shows don't have enough action for kids or something? Because they're all focused on combat to different extends. I mean yeah, most of them do go deeper into some themes than kids are used to, but I don't think that that's innapropriate for kids or something.

Or are you just saying that you think those shows are bad and thus don't like them?
Because I can agree that they aren't good on the grounds of being long running anime based on shonen desperately trying to pad out time with shitty or non-content to not catch up and having to do their own thing while keeping the money rolling in.
>>
>>81478435
You should show your brother Digimon Tamers when he's a a couple years older if he likes Adventure.

By the way, I heard that Tamers was pretty neutered in the USA. Is this true? I was lucky enough I am Swiss and thus got the German dub, and that one does some weird stuff in that it uses the American dub names but the Japanese script and music and shit.

>OMG I'm such a nerd lol look at me wearing a shirt that refferences the original game-boy while waving around a sonic screwdriver
Is going away, yes, but I'm seeing youth culture becoming a lot more nerdy than what it used to be.

Per example, I live in Switzerland.
Fucking everyone here watches anime. It's insane. Everyone up to, like, age 25 has either watched it, watches it or has some kind of concept, the whole "ew anime you disgusting nerd" is completely non-existent.
Gamers are everwhere too. It's way different than even five years ago.

Almost a bit scary, to be honest.

Give them something more up to date.

Whenever I visit the family, the siblings refuse to leave me alone until I let them watch a ton of SU and AT on my laptop.

Animaniacs was a product of its time, and honestly in a lot of ways not written for kids.

Do make sure to discourage them watching awful shit on youtube though. Can't be good for a kid.

It suffers from the same shitty dub humor that was so prevalent then, but as a whole? The story's still intact and all the horrifying shit somehow made it through the censors, including Juri's weird puppet suicide attempt.

>>81478334

that's honestly more of your fault than the kid's

Kids learn by osmosis, so if you let him learn from someone that like let's players then he's gonna end up liking let's players

I got my sister into anime by watching pretty cure with her and by spending time with her most of the time, after a while she ended up watching stuff on her own and is now watching a weird K-on ripoff that changes guitars for tubas

I didnt need to obligue her to anything, just see what your brother likes and find stuff that cater to his tastes

Does he like playing minecraft? Then spend some time playing minecraft with him then try to recommend him different (and better) games like terraria

Like hearing people talk? then that's because he needs someone to talk with, that's why you're there

Because they're selfish, anon. Stop hanging out with these people.
