For a 13yo who hasn’t been sheltered exactly but also doesn’t need any ideas. I showed her the Holiday Songs episode from season 3. I was thinking the “Shit” episode, but what else?

She doesn’t need to start acting like Cartman 😂😂 she’s also very, uh, passionate about social justice issues and I am NOT going to fight with her about a damn cartoon.

Well don’t then lol explain the humour instead and try and convey what the issue the episodes are detailing is. Show them other viewpoints and ways of seeing things rather than your own personal opinions. They’re only your kid, they’re not you. Let them figure it out on their own

Lol nah ignore them I'm glad I wasn't allowed to watch South Park or Game of Thrones either. 13 is very young and impressionable. I did play stick of truth in highschool though and I was shocked at one part of the game 😭 I wouldn't say I was sheltered but I'm glad my parents didn't expose me to any lewd or crass content. And low-key the people I knew in middle school and highschool that were south Park fans did act like Cartman 💀 They were not the nicest kids and class clown types and did curse a lot.. I would say the more sheltered kids at my school were those that weren't allowed to watch SpongeBob or Harry Potter. Anyways I'm about to graduate college and have just picked it up after the Black Friday episode was suggested a couple days before Thanksgiving. I'll say this show is genius 😂 And the Photoshop episode almost made me tear up. I looked it up and I was shocked that the episode came out so long ago. Actually I was literally in middle school when it came out 😭 I love that you're semi censoring it for your kid. And coming from a former 13 year old, seeing spicy scenes and crude jokes with my parents always made me cringe 😬 Still does! Anyways thanks for asking this question! I'm definitely going to watch the episodes people recommended!

Wouldn't it be healthier to be able to enjoy a TV show that you like with your parents without feeling uncomfortable? Why is feeling uncomfortable around your own parents a good thing in the slightest?

Lol I thought this was a universal feeling when kissing scenes come on with your parents until death jk jk
