I was watching Nickelodeon with my little niece. Then, there is a short quiz pop out on the TV screen. It was describing the “poo poo face” and I was a bit shocked when I heard this. I was telling my little niece that it is bad to use this slang term. I assured her that it wasn’t good to describe someone with such.
It is so bizarre to watch a “Baby Gaga Poo Poo Face” on youtube.
I think we really need to guide the children on watching TV or even on youtube.
“What’s going on here?”
“Do you think it is appropriate to use this term in a children TV program?”

there are some parents who baby-talk their toddlers, and they describe the number two thing as poo-poo.

@Shavkat parents should not baby talk, because the kids have the attitude to carry on what they learn during childhood years.

That's just awful. Kids are exposed to so much nonsense these days, sadly.

All you have to do is turn the channel. But for kids older than 6, they should know better to not say it just because they hear it. And if so, it shouldnt be an issue to hear or read it on tv.

Not at all no.
They should not be showing this kind of thing.
Okay it seems funny but to teach very young children its not the done thing.
Not my idea of a young child´s program at all.

I think that they could have used other characters but I am not writing or making the Series.
Just my opinion.

Youtube is the worst place to find entertainment for children. Download Netflix kids instead. Youtube is bombarded with those inappropriate videos targeted to children like those Spiderman with Elsa parody videos.

It is not funny and it is certainly something no one here would let children watch this. Parents sometimes don't think clearly.

No, I don't think it's appropriate. Kids should not be encourged to use such terms, which this is doing. I was shocked to hear my granddaughter begin singing something about "Mr. Potty Pants." Apparently her other grandmother had taken her to some kind of movie that had that in it. I didn't say anything (her parents thought it was funny), but I think it's crude.

Even i feel these cartoon programs has become so inappropriate for kids. There is so much violence, slangs, inappropriate behavior shown. That surely has a bad impact on young minds.
