'Family Guy' Jokes Called 'Troubling'

'Family Guy' Jokes Called 'Troubling' - christiannewsjournal.com

Excerpt from this article:

"The 'Family Guy' animated comedy series increasingly jokes about sexual violence against children and teens, with nearly 80 percent of all such scenes in the past three years perpetrated against that population group, a Parent Television Council (PTC) study found. Jokes or humorous depictions of rape, statutory rape, molestation or pedophilia against children were included in 91 percent of the series’ scenes depicting sexual violence in the 2014–2015 season, up from 75 percent in 2012-2013, according to the PTC study...At a time when nearly one in three women in America is sexually abused, why would a television network air a primetime program that routinely asks us to laugh at sexual violence?”

By Silence Betrayed: Sexual Abuse of Children in America, by John Crewdson. Here is an excerpt from this great book:

But despite the gradual recognition that having sex with adults was probably not in children’s best interest, a gap remained between word and deed. It was the children of the nineteenth century for whom the first fairy tales were written, but the Victorians have become notorious for preaching one thing and doing quite another where sex was concerned. In 1835, the Society for the Prevention of Juvenile Prostitution reckoned that four hundred Londoners depended for their livelihoods on child prostitutes…one of the major accomplishments of England’s Victorian-era child welfare brigades was to raise the legal age for prostitution from nine to thirteen.”
