I was looking for a wholesome show to watch with my 1st & 5th graders and a few of the episodes were great. But tonight we saw the one where John-boy got engaged to Daisy and at the end of it both my kids had questions I hadn't wanted to get into yet. Like how and why women can have kids without a husband and why Grandpa was putting alcohol in the lemonade...
With all the questionable programs out there today, I feel very comfortable letting my children watch The Waltons. Just about every episode has an important lesson on family values and social responsibility.
It's such a great show that shows what happened to a large family in the 30's. It's to good to miss. It's just so innocent, and you can spend hours watching it.
