    My parents have no idea what it even is. They don't know what I watch, they hear of it though when I ask them to get me the video games. Lol

    My dad likes it almost as much as I do, my mom doesn't like any cartoons. Says they're all for lil kids no matter??what the show could be about...stuff like South Park, Drawn Together, or any other adult themed cartoon is for lil kids. And nothin' will change her mind. I guess I get my stubbornness from her...

    My mom doesn't even know what Avatar is

    But my friend's dad is really into it, even though she's not. The day the season finale was going to show, I was like "Are you going to watch it?" and she was like "I'll probably have to watch it anyways, cuz of my dad..."

    I just got the Avatar box set and my mom was insiting that we all watch every episodes, so we were watching Avatar from episode one to episode eight. It was so cool and my parents kept on laughing at Sokka's sarcasm.

    Sorry if this is rude and off-topic , but what is that? To keep on topic, my parents haven't the slightest clue as to what Avatar is.

    I used to watch it with mom, but we stopped watching it when it didn't fit in our schedules... . We watched it again like two weeks ago, and even though I had to explain her some things, she could go into it quite easily... She even watched an episode while I wasn't at home! And she prefers Zuko over Aang (and Azula, of course)! (I was SO impressed at this...)

    Sokka Gokai International. An organization of buddhists; not the bald ones who wear robes and meditate while "um-ing" all day. We chant, but we are modern, and not like- mystical.
    Anyway, my parents now LOVE Avatar. My dad commented on how well written it is and he even asked me where he could find sites about it. When my mom woke up from her nap cause she was tired from cleaning for Christmas, and found out that my dad and I were watching Avatar without her, she was pretty upset. But everyone in the family was in the living room watching Avatar. It was a family activity, which is pretty big since we hardly ever SEE one another as I practically live in my room, my brother lives in the living room rocking chair, and my parents are very busy. It was so cool, Avatar brought my family together.

    My mom doesn't like it. I think she thinks its really stupid.?? Like when I wanted the book 1 dvd for christmas (Which i got how awesome!!!!) she was like really? I told her I would rather have that one than scrubs and she kinda thought I was crazy. My dad likes it though.?? He doesn't watch it all the time like me but when he watches he'll laugh at stuff that's funny, but i don't think he likes zuko at all becuase zuko has his weird dramatic crazy moments. But he kinda likes the show.
