Are Blonde Jokes and Yo Mama Jokes Okay for Kids?
I got an email from a mom today canceling her daughter's JokesByKids newsletter subscription because we included a blonde joke and a "Yo Mama's So Fat" joke. These jokes were personally screened by me. Perhaps my assistant, who usually edits the jokes, has a higher standard. But ... what's the harm here? These jokes are "clean. " They are not suggestive or violent. But, of course, they do make fun of people. But not specific people. Are they likely to hurt a child's feelings? Am I setting a bad example by publishing these jokes?
Here are links to the offending jokes:
Here's a snippet from the letter I received:
First, my daughter and I are both blonde, yet neither of us is stupid or 'airheaded'. That is an image I fight constantly to keep my daughter from ever having of herself in her brain. Thankfully I saw this email before she did so I could delete it!
Second, many people we love and respect are overweight, some of them are family. I was taught, and my husband and I strive to teach our children, that people are not to be judged by what's on the outside, but by what's inside.
