Animation Source Forums

Agreed. That "furry" thing is what they are mostly worried I will become obssessed with, actually. Still, they were worried when they saw this site, since they pressure me into showing them what sites I've been on. I showed them this site, and, they noticed that it had animated characters on it and they thought that they were the same style as those other sites you mentioned. (I will not lie to you guys, so I will admit that I have been to those sites before, but I did stop going to those rather repulsive sites because my parents busted me big time when they found out not too long after that thing started.)

I truly agree with the carreer opportunities for working with animals. I think I would like to be like mabye a wolf biologist someday, but if that means I have to like dissect one... yuck, that is one thing I cannot do to any animal. A way I'm starting with that is since I take photoraphy, I'll be going to the Wolf Sanctuary in my home city, which should have lots of photo opportunities there, despite its distance away from my house. I'll be doing that when I can drive by myself, which should be in another month or so. I sure hope they don't object to that. If they do, then God knows what will happen.

Good GOD. Well, anything your two brothers feel about wolves and dogs, or Balto, would have been taught to them. They're too young to have an informed decision (no matter what they might think). And they may have learned that very attitude from your parents. Or some idiotic teacher or other adult who sympathizes with sheep herders, who make a bigger fuss about wolves than actually is necessary.

That's just sick.

Wow Swords I've noticed recently just how similar the two of us are in likes and dislikes. As for the internet deal a huge stroke of luck fell my way almost exactly one year ago. Due to Hurricane Katrina (That being one year ago today) I needed a computer for school out of town so my mom bought the one I'm using now. Before AOL's gardian feature allowed by parents to see every site I went on so I had stopped coming here and visited sparingly until I just snapped and started visiting the site again. But anyway the new computer came with the greatest invention I know a built-in wifi adapter No more AOL for me so now I have a ton of online freedom (that i'm carful not to abuse). I suppose it was just a lucky roll but I won the battle and the war.

what the heck?! That is almost as stupid as parents not accepting their gay/bi children. They always tell you not to grow up fast and when you don't its the other way around...Man! all this stuff just gets so confusing for their children, as most of us know



Man that is just ridiculous, at such a young age to hate animals so passionatly i just have to wonder, WHAT IN THE HELL ARE YOUR BROTHERS BEING TAUGHT?!!! I think your parents may have rocks in their heads? It sounds silly to support negativity of your positive, more free flowing imagination.

I am sick and tired of everyone trying to mold everyone else, we are all going to develope in different ways and unless their behaviour is dangerous or perverted they should be left alone with minimal guidance

The world is ruined...and that was the easy part

Your parents are mad about that? Wow. And to think that you could like street drugs, promiscuity, and horrific deplorable violence instead... Or worse, the animal site could be about loving animals in a very sick way... Your parents are LUCKY! They should at least be thankful.

That is exactly what they are worried about. Very stupid I know.

Well that sucks, but some parents want the age right things for there child to watch or do, and Balto is a kids movie, like from ages 8 and lower, but I can see why your mother would be mad, she wants you to grow up mature and responcible and she thinks balto is kids stuff and that you should be doing things your own age.

Amen, bro!

Now that's completely unreasonable.

There are a few certainties that every kid must face, until at least their 18th birthday:

1. Parents aren't perfect, but they are STILL your parents

2. Their house, their rules

3. At a certain point, compromise is good

4. Ignoring your parents will only lead to you losing...or getting thrown out of the house. Or into worse trouble than that.

5. While every human being has certain inalienable rights in enlightened and democratic society, minors still do not enjoy the rights which adults do. And they shouldn't. They don't have the life experience to properly and responsibly handle certain rights. Not to say there aren't irresponsible adults out there, but that is an entirely different matter.

We've seen what happens in a society when parents are either too permissive (or simply don't care, or worse still, ignore their kids)...a rise in crime (especially violent crime), drug use and a decline in the basic morality of society...bad kids end up making bad adults.

(Oh, I can just imagine the responses now...about how doing drugs isn't bad, and how adults are just as bad, and how kids ARE entitled to every right that adults are. LOL. But folks, let's not ruin this thread by drifting too far from the author's subject, hmm? And I'm NOT going to be drawn into a debate about it. I've said it, and that's all I care to say on this subject.)

True. The law in most states says that a child under the age of 18 must do anything his/her parents tell them to do (Given that whatever that is is within the confines of the law).
