My kids watch that Teens Titans Go. I think it is pretty good.
I agree. But Unikitty sucks.

Just curious for the members that have children, if they have any political leanings, what are they?

My daughter started Very Progressive. She has the biggest heart and empathy for those less fortunate. She lives in Brooklyn now for the last 4 years and I see the difference in that she is leaning more to the center now. She's experienced 'real life' now and has struggled like many. She has also seen too much of the attitude of 'why bother, when you can get it for free' that goes against her upbringing. It's hard out there, especially in an expensive state/city and she has been tempted to take the 'easy way' but resisted (for now). Proud of her, but hate watching her struggle.
One of my good friends lives in Brooklyn. Williamsburg I think. He loves it! But, he's a youngster. 22. When the excitement of youth dies down, I can't foresee him hacking it out in that expensive place.
She is in Bushwick, close to the border of Williamsburg. She loves it there too (she's 24). I was kind of hoping that 'love' would taper off as the financial reality of living there sets in, but it hasn't yet. She pays $750 plus utilities for a small ROOM, with no window, sharing the 1 bathroom apt. with 3 others.
I call that insane, but I'm old..haha!
There is so much culture there. It's a vibrant place.
Which is what she loves about it! She's an Art History/Gallery Management major and loves the artsy atmosphere and the diversity. Her 'dream' is to open an art gallery for 'real people' Making art available and affordable for all, especially the lowest of incomes. A worthy, if not fanciful, ambition. But I'll support her anyway
forgive me. starting to be the bragging parent here. was not intended!
My daughter is affiliated with the Sith.
