Dear Ask The Alien:
My teen-aged son has become addicted to watching a program on
cable TV called Fox News. I fear this will have a long-term negative effect on
his mental health. I suspect that his interest has to do with the fact that all
the female actors on the show are attractive blonds. In fact, my son has taken
to draping a large blanket over him while he watches. Nothing on my part seems
to work. For example, yesterday I told him that I had read where watching that particular
channel would make a person stupid and that he should stop watching it—stop it immediately.
He looked at me with that precious face and said. “Can I just do it until I
need remedial English?” Any advice?
Signed,
You know, I think I need to do more research on this channel. Anyone know where I might find it? - C.W. |
Dear Distraught:
You have taken the wrong approach. Teenagers embrace
stupidity. They don’t eschew it. Have you listened to their music? For better
results, tell him that you read where watching the show causes acne.Your Friend,
The Alien C.W.
