    i'm a 17 year old guy and i think this show is hilarious. i never heard of it until my 8 year old sister was talking about watching a show where some girls where talking about their sister having diaherria[horrible spelling] in a restaurant. and i was like wtf? so i watched it and laughed and laughed. and now i watch it with my sister regulary but i have to ask, is this show really appropriate for little kids. i mean they kick eachother in the crotch and the content is pretty racey for cartoonnetwork kids.

    Good to hear you like the show. Its fine for kids to watch, just make sure you tell her never to impersonate anything she watches on the show or on TV for that matter. A lot of parents just use the TV as a baby sitter and when there kids see guns being shot and all the violence there's no one there to help them make that distinction between whats right and wrong.

    He's not calling her stupid, just saying she may imitate things she sees. All kids do it, it's how anyone learns to speak. They hear their parents and start imitating it.

    I didn't call anyone dumb it's just that there are a whole lot of misinformed kids and teenagers. You can read about some pretty dumb sh*t a younger person did in the newspaper everyday.

    I got my sister into this show as well, she is the same age as me,but she hates cartoons.

    I wouldn't worry about TDI being bad for your sister, in the generation we live in now this show is considered nothing compared to the other things in the world. If the crazy people at Cartoon Network who love to make sure their shows are 100% kid safe put it on, then it means there is nothing too life changing that your sister could see while watching it.

    your right,parents do use the tv as a baby sitter,and when something does happen the complain to the network because they can't take care of their kids,tv is an excuse for some peoples negligents

    people like me. i was wondering not saying its inappropriate. its different if kids hear stuff from their parents than from a cartoon. i was trying to mention that some of the humor is a little subject.

    That's very true. In fact, remember the Columbine High School massacre? (Look it up on wikipedia if you don't)

    The violent movies, music, and video games cause them to try it out, even though it was probably aided with a little crazyness.

    They even made a user-made level of their school on the game Doom.

    the only thing i can see little kids copying from this show is the theme song. i only thought the humor was more teen related

    I'd say it's safe for kids. You wouldn't believe how much stuff got censored when they brung the show to America. The only thing that might be weird is the next episode, but considering how touchy they've been, it will probably be okay.
