Trapped in the city of one loo

Rundown: [community profile] rpanons is an anonymous community for role-play related topics. This place serves as a forum for game discussions, canon discussions, RP solicitations (ATP, game ads, open memes), and advice. The occasional off topic comment is inevitable, but please keep heated social and political topics to their respective communities. Posting them here will only get them frozen. Subsequent threads made to bypass a freeze will then be deleted.

Rules:

Do not post pornographic or shocking images.
Do not share private entries, plurks, chat logs, etc.
Do not use this community as your social/political/hatespeech soapbox.
Do not be redundant. One page does not need three or more threads on one topic/theme. Your unfunny, forced memes also fall under this rule.
Do not treat this comm like your personal therapist. Threads about nonfictional suicide, self injury, rape, and abuse will be deleted. There are better resources out there for you.
Do not treat this comm like your personal Plurk or Twitter. Off-topic happens, but it should be open for discussion and not just a play-by-play of your life. No one cares.
Shut up about Tumblr. If it's not a discussion about Tumblr RP it will be deleted.

Caillou is incredibly whiny and you'd better believe the kids imitate him. He's also ridiculously helpless for his supposed age.

Everything about Caillou makes perfect sense when you realize that the original books the show is based on are about an infant but for some reason they made him four without adjusting anything when they did the cartoon.

I have a lot of friends with children under five and most of them seem to judge children's programming on "it's not Caillou" even more than "it's not Barney" was ever a thing. He's mostly banned from their households for modelling bad behaviour and generally irritating the shit out of the parents.

Like other anon said, Caillou is an extremely shrill, whiny brat who throws tantrums to get his way. And his parents just indulge him, too. He never goes to time-out or anything like that. Throwing a tantrum just gets him the things he wants.

I know a lot of parents who have outright banned the show after their kids started imitating him, including one kid who started being really nasty to his baby sister after watching the show (Caillou has a baby sister he's not very nice to but never really gets punished for it). The age group Caillou is directed at WILL imitate him and he's not someone you want a kid to imitate.
