Assuming one day that you have children would you care what kind of music they listened to like would you care if they heard the word fuck in their music or listened to CDs along the lines of Enema of the State or TOYPAJ when they are sayy 8-10 years old?

I won't force my kids to listen to music, I'll probably just let them be.

I wouldnt care because I listened to music with curse words in it when I was that age. And just as long as they didnt listen to things like Brokencyde and the millionaires.

As long as what they listen to has any redeeming quality, I'll let her be.

I swear to god, though, if I find a Brokencyde album in her jacket she isn't leaving the house for yeaaaaaaars.

My children will know what good music is before they're allowed to pick tunes for themselves, solving any problems that could ever arise.

Like said above: as long as it's nothing like brokencyde, I don't care.
I hated when my stepmom tried to force it out of me, so I wouldn't do that to my kids.

God forbid I ever have children of my own... but if I do I would definitely try to turn them to music I enjoy(ed) but in the end they can listen to whatever the want.. what the fuck do I really care what they or anyone else does in their free time?
Like said above: as long as it's nothing like brokencyde, I don't care.

Is The Hold Steady really that much better or credible than Brokencyde? Come on now!

I'll raise my kids around good music, but I'm not going to force them to listen to anything. I'm sure I won't quite understand their tastes, and that will be just fine. I've been there before and its great to have parents that are open to different things.

if you try to stop them from listining to music you dont approve of they will just do it when you are not around so just let it ride. hopefully your kid wont follow his or her favorite musician.

Curse words in songs is not a big deal to me. I just wouldn't want my 5-10 year old going to school and cursing up a storm. And I would hope the music is not horrible. But then again the pretentious side of me thinks I'll just act like a total dick if he/she likes shitty music.

No because I wasn't allowed to do I got burned Ludacris CDs from my friends and they were unedited and I was like "oh my god, they said fuck."

So, I'd let them, they'll hear it anyway, they just need to not SAY those words.

children are just accessories, and when they hit the age where they can dress themselves and can speak and be completely understood I'll send them to boarding school in the alps until they graduate and have accessories of their own. That's only if I'm rich though, otherwise theyre little dream killers and I dont need to do the hands on approach so it doesnt really matter.

Honestly, I will closely pay attention to what types of music my children consume. Music is one of the most important things in my life and while I don't want to necessarily control what my kids do and don't listen to, I'm not going to be buying/paying for any shitty music to be played in my house. Honestly, the type of music you listen to has an effect on a lot of things so, yeah.

Mostly, I've just noticed that people who listen to certain types of music are typically more intellectually well balanced. For instance, none of my professors listen to the radio or any kind of scene music. Luckily for me, I really enjoy folk, indie, and classical (and I have a sweet tooth for hip-hop but that's beside the point). I just really want to steer my kids in the direction of being decent human beings.

I am sure unless I show my kids a lot of the music I listen to they will never ever hear it, because quite frankly as much as I enjoy some of the bands that I do... will they really still be around 15-20 years from now? Probably not, most of the music these days is fad-ish anyway, so I am sure there will be another 10 year period with a different genre of music that they will discover. AND I will have no idea about any of it, because I will have a life to focus on. I realize music is key to growing up to be who you are, but at some point, you realize it isn't life.

Therefore, I will just let them do what they do, and I will probably just think back to how I was with my parents and remember that they will do what they do, regardless of what guidelines I try to set for them. With music, that seems pointless.

EDIT: I put too many commas, I fixed that.

Babies are cool...like from the age of 0-5, then they turn into shit starters that suck the life force out of you and if theyre boys it stays that way until theyre 21. It's the reason I refuse to date any guy who's under the age of 24.

But seriously, I even dropped a baby and she's still cool with me, babies are awesome.
