Who Would You Rather Have Your Child Watch-Big Bird Or Willard Romney? (Original Post)

(27,985 posts)1. My kid watches Big Bird and all his compadres obsessively
Of course, my 17 year old child has autism, so it's not unusual. But of the things he's obsessed over through the years, all things Sesame, rank number one. There was one year he had a Big Bird learning game on his computer and when it would go into sleep mode, Big Bird would occasionally say "Can you find my bird seed?" This was ten years ago, and yet it has become family lore. If it gets too quiet in the house (as if!) my hubby inevitably calls out "Can you find my bird seed?" in a perfect big bird imitation.
Yeah, let's keep Sesame Street and get rid of the RMoney.
