A debate over ABC Family Values

The article is based on the analysis of a Walt Disney accompany owned alphabet TV series The Secret Life of the American Teenager and attempts to relate its scenes and theme to the present day common teend stirual encounters and early pregnancies. The authors attempt to question the shift to programs that be sex based by the ABC TV given that Disney not lonesome(prenominal) has themes, in their view, are out of place on a hold with But Secret Life has the word family in its name provided also has a chaste image (James & Chmielewsk, 2009). By venturing into teenage sex series, Disney which presumably ought to promote family values and fight sex forrader marriage, appears to have undergone a kind of revolution.The series reportedly show vie on bed, a father enquiring about daughters sex life and manifestation about a father molesting his son. ABC Family also plans to show a comedy about a young woman rejected by a boyfriend after having his baby, keeping in mind that it s programs are known to advance youth innocence (James & Chmielewsk, 2009).In a coming back however, the Disney-ABC Television Group argues that they are just being genuine and responsive to the life experiences of their audiences in attempt to mirror what is happening in the indian lodge (James & Chmielewsk, 2009). However, this comment has generated concern about the paradigm shift from the family programming, to coeval series despite a sensible reason to appeal to the younger viewers a situation necessitated by research findings.I think that the perk up Lives of the American Teenager a timely series by ABC owing to the increasing cases of teenage sexual experiences, early pregnancies and child molestation. These, are social ills which contravene Disneys family values hence the series coif to educate the public. At the same time, ABC has ensured that each episode ends with an consultive that encourages parents and children to talk before its too late, an idea which I believe illustrates the precise message that the explicit teenage scenes tend to depict.ReferenceJames & Chmielewsk.
