"There is every reason to try to protect them from these behaviors. You can’t unring the bell."
Fair enough. I'll rephrase and say it's almost futile to try to protect them. I met some of her classmates and their parents at a "Holiday" (not Christmas) pageant in December. It's pretty clear where the influence comes from. But of course it would be un-PC to come right out and say it.

^^ I don't disagree. My oldest grand daughter is five. She has picked up some nasty behaviors since she started going to pre school. She certainly didn't learn it from watching a SB Halftime show. I corrected her when she first did the things at my house so she's more careful around me. I know my daughter and SIL won't stand for this at their home. She learned this crap in a pre school class with four and five year olds. There is no point in trying to protect the kids from gross behavior, all we can do is make sure they know that it is not acceptable for them to mimic it. If my daughter gets booked to sing and dance at the Super Bowl Halftime show when she's 18 because she watched this year's show and she mimics it, I think I am ok with that. And NSR is right that, like ALL of us, kids are going to learn WAY worse stuff from their peers than from watching Jennifer Lopez and Shakira dance for 10 minutes. Believe that.

Looks like being an empowered female is all about public masterbation, who knew?

The halftime show was pretty clearly not that, but on that note, I think this topic has reached its conclusion.
