    What TV shows do your children watch that you can't stand? Which have grown on you?

    We all fear the day that you catch yourself humming the theme song to Dora the Explorer or (God forbid) Shake it Up. Which shows just tear you up inside and which do you enjoy with your child? While I was a nanny, Dora actually grew on meas well as Phineus and Ferb, and Girl Meets World.

    I can't even put into words how much I hate Dora. It's not a bad show, in theory, but for some reason it just really drives me crazy.

    Daniel Tiger's Neighbourhood definitely grew on me and I've always liked My Little Pony; I loved the old one when I was little!

      I thought Dora was annoying at first too! But the girl loved her so I got used to her. I never watched My Little Pony or Daniel Tiger's Neighborhood. I don't have kids yet so I'm sure I'll see my fair share of bad ones...Looking forward to it!

    I am a huge fan of Dora. Mickey Mouse Club House is by far my most disliked. It annoys me to all end, but it teaches some fun stuff and my youngest loves it. Wild kratts is my favorite by far. Me and all 3 of my children sit down and watch it together.

      I hare your annoyance for Micky Mouse Clubhouse!! One that grew on me because of the stupid funny parts was Barbie's Dream House. Completely annoying but has some funny parts!

    My now-11 year old loved "Thomas the Tank Engine" when he was very small. I didn't mind it at first but eventually got really sick of seeing/hearing that show. It's been years since my son grew out of it, yet every once in a while I still get the theme song stuck in my head!

    My youngest (who's now 7) was very big into "Curious George" for awhile. I used to say that I could relate to the Man in the Yellow Hat on that show, because I too was helpless against the destructive force of a small, hyperactive creature.
