Default Yu-Gi-Oh: Corrupting our children? - 04-04-2008, 06:58 AM

Now, I'm going to just get right to the point, as I am quite enraged right now. Now, my 10 year old son Tristan has been enamored with a TV show and TCG (Trading Card Game) called 'Yu-Gi-Oh!' Now, when I first saw the TV show, I was reluctant to let my son watch it, since it was A. not made in America, and B. Rather violent (the show depicts monster holograms fighting eachother), but I let him watch it because he claimed he would read the Bible every night (which is rather ridiculous, seeing as how he should regardless of his want to watch the show)

He seemed to be rather into the show after a few days, and asked me to take him out to buy some of the cards, so I bought him a starter deck and a few booster packs and thought nothing more of the corruption I was unintentionally giving my child.

Now, a few weeks later, I saw my son watching the show and on it, there was a very tempting looking woman with a very unsubtle pun as her name "Mai Valentine" (satanic anime image removed) a picture of her, for reference.

I immediately turned off the television and told him to go read a book, I was clearly panicked.

As he read, I went to go through the cards that I had bought him, and found other inappropriate things, including the 'Harpy Lady' card. (demonic anime image removed)

This show and its merchandise is desensitizing our children to sex and violence!

I would appreciate your feedback/discussion.
