Quality time with the kids now-a-days may not be the luxuriously time-afforded pinic in the park or camping in the woods. Time with the kids may not even be classified as "quality" as many families are spending their time watching nonsensical shows together.
Many TV sitcoms follow the sexual innuendo routine while reality TV shows attract viewers from their forged romance plotlines. There is a lack of good 'ol family shows which promote good education and family values. However, not all is lost. Some shows do make a commitment to upholding family themes throughout their series and there are some which you can tell are rotten from a mile away.
