Barney & Friends (1992–2010)
1/10
What is the purpose?
27 July 2011
My girlfriend has a younger sister who is disabled and who is almost 12 years old. For 12 hours a day barney is playing. Can you imagine how ridiculous that is? Barney honestly is a waste of time. It has no teaching methods.

It really has the magical solution. If a problem needs to be solved it will immediately. In an episode a boy loses a girls music box during a yard sale. So he offers to use his money to get a new one... AN HONEST AND TRUE WAY OF TAKING RESPONSIBILITY. The girl replies that it was a music box she got Switzerland. Barney immediately says that he can take the kid to Switzerland. < So if I break something that was purchased elsewhere in the world, I can go get it? No I would probably take responsibility.

If you think this is appropriate for children, it is to an extent. If you think this is healthy for children 4+ I would move to something more intelligent. The show has constantly been going downhill.

So if someone on here says this is a wrong idea for kids, they are probably right. 12 hours of barney, and you will experience hell.
