The Oz man described himself as the Prince of Darkness the other night. Is this what you expose your ten year old to? Yes I have watched portions of the Ozbourn show and I wouldn't expose my kids to that filth. What Ozzie does on his own time I could care less. What he represents to children I do care about. Do I hate the man? What is it with the people on this forum? If you disagree with what someone does you are automatically judged to hate them. I can't think of a single person on the planet that I hate. I can think of many of them that I do not wish to have my children emulate.

There's your answer Xenalyte.

Its all a joke, he didnt come up with that name for himself...its sarcasm. I dont agree with everything about Ozzy either..but the show is funny, and Ozzy still makes great music. We can watch the show without emulating him, we dont emulate anything we watch, although I do get a hankerin' for a good pigeon burger on Tuesday nites after the show, cant quite explain it.

Let's put this in context. Sharon wanted Ozzy to use a bubble machine onstage. Ozzy's remark (redacted for the censors) was, "Bubbles!? Ah c'mon, Sharon, I'm f*cking Ozzy Osbourne, the prince of f*cking darkness! Evil evil evil." In case you don't get it (which is painfully obvious), Ozzy is SPOOFING SATANIC ROCK. He has been for years.

I don't have children. If I had a ten-year-old, he wouldn't watch it. But then, I'd be the parent, so deciding the appropriateness of a show would be my responsibility.

Yes I have watched portions of the Ozbourn show and I wouldn't expose my kids to that filth.

Which proves my point. You're perfectly capable of switching channels, and obviously you did so with great success. Ergo, you are determining what is appropriate for your children to watch.

What Ozzie does on his own time I could care less. What he represents to children I do care about.

What, pray, does he represent to children? How is "let's make fun of death-metal" worse than Britney's hot pants?

Well, there you are, then. Provide a positive role model for your children, and they'll not look to sports figures or musicians for guidance.
