Which <a class="edS-cl" href="https://www.ranker.com/list/the-best-parenting-reality-shows-ranked/henry-adams?ref=internalCrossLinking_keyword">TV shows about parenting</a> do you think are best? While there are countless manuals, books, and detailed guides people can pick up to help them learn proper parenting techniques, some of us just turn on the TV. Television series about parenting have been around since stations first started broadcasting programs and that&#39;s simply due to the fact that they&#39;re both relatable and highly entertaining. Plus, people who watch television tend to be (or will become) a parent at one time in their lives. And while these shows aren&#39;t necessarily guides to parenting, watching how best to do it and what not to do has certainly helped more than a few families evolve&nbsp;over the years.

Finding the best parenting shows to watch is all about what kind of person you are and how you raise your family. Watching a show like Fox&#39;s&nbsp;Married... With Children&nbsp;might be a better indicator on how&nbsp;not&nbsp;to raise kids, while more recent shows like&nbsp;Modern Family&nbsp;focus on more positive aspects of child-rearing. Then you have some <a href="https://www.ranker.com/list/tv-parents-whose-children-should-be-taken-away/christinatedesco" target="_blank">TV parents who shouldn&#39;t have kids</a>,&nbsp;but we can just be glad it&#39;s not real life.&nbsp;Whatever your preference, there are plenty of good parenting series to choose from and this list compiles the best of them all.&nbsp;

Featuring some of the <a href="https://www.ranker.com/crowdranked-list/favorite-tv-moms-of-all-time-v3" target="_blank">best TV moms</a>&nbsp;to date, as well as <a href="https://www.ranker.com/crowdranked-list/womansday_s-top-10-tv-dads-of-all-time" target="_blank">TV dads we&#39;d love to have</a>, check out the&nbsp;recommendations below, vote up the best shows about parenting and see where your favorites rank.

Looking at this list, it's amazing we were able to get through our childhood without having a nervous breakdown. Seriously! The amount of silly things you believed as a kid and the little lies that we had to tell ourselves just to get through those traumatic childhood days is insane. There were monsters everywhere, sharks in the swimming pool, and plenty to worry about as fair as cutting your hair and eating watermelon seeds. Now that we're mature, grown adults, we definitely don't believe any of these silly lies anymore. Riiiiight?&nbsp;When you were growing up, what silly things did you believe? Did you actually believe that the world was in black and white before color TV was invented? Did those horror movies that you were way too young to watch traumatize you so much that you were actually afraid of being sucked down the bathtub drain? What silly thing did you tell yourself in order to avoid the monsters that most definitely lived <a href="https://www.ranker.com/list/worst-things-to-find-under-your-bed/elise?ref=internalCrossLinking_keyword">under your bed</a> or in the closet?From flat out ridiculous to straight up delusional, which of these silly things did you believe in the most when you were a young, innocent, naive child? How many of you out there still think chocolate milk comes from brown cows? We'll admit we're still a little afraid of the dark, what about you?

Do You Like Scary Movies?

Entertainment

It&#39;s perfectly natural to want to share your interests with your kids, but what if you&#39;re a horror buff with a stockpile of&nbsp;<a href="https://www.ranker.com/list/alfred-hitchcock-behavior-toward-tippi-hedren-on-the-birds/stephanroget" target="_blank">Hitchcock</a>, Craven, Carpenter, and Cronenberg&nbsp;sitting in your DVD shelf or filling your digital library? While something like&nbsp;<a href="https://www.ranker.com/list/weird-facts-about-the-exorcist/christopher-myers" target="_blank">The Exorcist</a>&nbsp;is a venerable classic of the horror genre, its&nbsp;graphic violence and language make it inappropriate for young children. That doesn&#39;t mean, however, that there aren&#39;t plenty of classic horror movies appropriate for kids as thier first scary movies. You can consider these films horror <a class="edS-cl" href="https://www.ranker.com/list/science-fiction-movies-for-beginners-kids-teens/ranker-film?ref=internalCrossLinking_keyword">movies for beginners</a>. When the days of&nbsp;Halloweentown&nbsp;and&nbsp;Hocus Pocus&nbsp;have passed, and your kids are craving something a little more substantial, these films strike a middle ground. They&#39;re intellectually meaty movies that play on deep-seated psychological fears, but do so without an overemphasis on&nbsp;violence or foul language.&nbsp;

When it comes to finding horror movies for teens or tweens, go for good and subtly scary films. The Others&nbsp;is a frightening film about a haunted cabin deep in the woods, but it&#39;s a quiet, slow movie without too much violence. While there&#39;s&nbsp;some&nbsp;questionable language in&nbsp;The Sixth Sense,&nbsp;the film&#39;s&nbsp;focus&nbsp;on the importance of parent/child communication make it a great film to start a dialogue with your own kids. These are just a few&nbsp;<a class="edS-cl" href="https://www.ranker.com/list/best-classic-horror-films/harper-brooks?ref=internalCrossLinking_keyword">classic horror films</a> without bad language kids can watch without getting too, too terrified, and that adults can enjoy as well.&nbsp;

Remember to use your discretion. Only you can know for sure what will and will not upset your child, but browse this list for some suggestions. Then, make sure to cast your vote for the best movies to get kids into the genre!&nbsp;

Winnie-the-Pooh is probably not who you think he is. First, he was born &quot;Edward.&quot; When a little boy named Christopher Robin Milne received him as a teddy bear in 1921, purchased from Harrods in London as a <a href="https://www.nypl.org/about/locations/schwarzman/childrens-center-42nd-street/pooh#2" target="_blank">present for his 1st birthday</a>,&nbsp;the toy&#39;s name was Edward -&nbsp;the proper form of &quot;Teddy.&quot; Christopher later changed it to <a href="https://time.com/4070681/winnie-the-pooh-history/" target="_blank">Winnie</a>,&nbsp;after a bear he visited at the London Zoo. The &quot;Pooh&quot; was based on Milne&#39;s&nbsp;name for a swan he liked to feed.

Beyond his&nbsp;name, the real Winnie-the-Pooh is not the grinning, yellow, red-shirted bear you are familiar with from the Disney&nbsp;films, TV shows, theme parks, and merchandise galore. The real Pooh (AKA &quot;Classic Pooh&quot;) is the bear as drawn by illustrator E.H. Shepard in the stories by A.A. Milne: Winnie-the-Pooh, published in 1926,&nbsp;and The House at Pooh Corner, published in 1928.&nbsp;

Shepard and Milne&#39;s bear is different in many ways from the Disney version, from how he looks, to the way he speaks, and the adventures he gets caught up in. Disney&nbsp;<a href="https://www.thewrap.com/winnie-the-pooh-evolution-christopher-robin-photos/" target="_blank">even eliminated the hyphens</a>&nbsp;from his name.&nbsp;Pooh&#39;s&nbsp;forest companions - Piglet, Eeyore, Tigger, Rabbit, Kanga, Roo, Owl, and Christopher Robin - are different, too, in both looks and personality. (The&nbsp;characters are so well-known that some&nbsp;people have even formed a theory they&nbsp;<a href="https://www.ranker.com/list/winnie-the-pooh-characters-represent-mental-illnesses/cheryl-adams-richkoff" target="_blank">represent mental illnesses</a>.)&nbsp;

After A.A. Milne passed in 1956, film&nbsp;rights to his Pooh characters were sold to Disney, which released the film short&nbsp;Winnie the Pooh and the Honey Tree&nbsp;in 1966, followed by additional short films&nbsp;and the full-length movies&nbsp;The Many Adventures of Winnie the Pooh (1977),&nbsp;The Tigger Movie (2000), Piglet&#39;s Big Movie (2003),&nbsp;Pooh&#39;s Heffalump Movie (2005), and&nbsp;Winnie the Pooh (2011), plus numerous TV shows and DVDs.&nbsp;

British people in particular have been (to borrow a Milne word) &quot;bothered&quot; by the Disney portrayal of Pooh and pals, claiming the characters have lost some of their charm and much of their Britishness. Although there&#39;s no harm in loving Disney&#39;s sweet Winnie-the-Pooh characters, they aren&#39;t the classic characters from the original books.&nbsp;&nbsp;

Adorable baby animals: Everyone loves them. But which young animals are actually the cutest? <a href="/list/cute-bear-cubs/jude-newsome" target="_blank">Bear cubs</a>? Kittens? Puppies? Until now, science has had no way to decide... But if you vote for the sweetest, most cuddly, most adorable baby animals on this CrowdRanked list - and make a list with your own suggestions - perhaps we can finally get an answer.

What makes certain baby animals so cute? Some have argued it&#39;s having facial symmetry, or proportionally larger eyes. Others may cite the degree of difference between the species appearance as an adult vs. in infancy (as with, for example, the hippopotamus.) Fortunately, the Internet is a massive and valuable resource for finding cute baby animal photos, so we should have little trouble narrowing down the field.

Nothing inspires growth and development quite like reading (and being read to). Here are lists of the top children's fiction and storybooks to line your child's bookshelf.

Books for Growing Minds

Books have always been a key part of the American cultural and social landscape, and thus have often become flashpoints in various culture wars. In fact, throughout the 20th and 21st centuries, certain books - even some we love - have been declared off-limits by those who believe they pose a danger to a certain group (usually children).&nbsp;Many reasons exist for book bans, which typically render even stellar tomes into stories people can’t read. This is all the more unsettling given how often banned books have been turned into films,&nbsp;<a target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer" href="https://www.ranker.com/list/underrated-movies-based-on-banned-books/mike-mcgranaghan">many of which are underrated</a>.

Where's Waldo?

Created by illustrator Martin Handford in 1987, Waldo – who has no last name, like Madonna or Cher – has been the subject of seven massively-successful books. He's also appeared in a variety of&nbsp;Handford's other publications, including comic strips, activity books, and sticker books. For a brief period, Waldo&nbsp;even had his own magazine&nbsp;in which he traveled to new countries&nbsp;and educated young readers about each destination's culture, history, and&nbsp;locale. When it comes to world travel, Waldo gives Carmen Sandiego some serious competition.To many, the eccentric figure is just another face in the crowd.&nbsp;But the facts about <a href="https://www.ranker.com/list/weird-things-in-where_s-waldo/mick-jacobs">Where's Waldo?</a>&nbsp;reveal a&nbsp;backstory&nbsp;as vibrant as&nbsp;the hundreds of images into which he so seamlessly blends.&nbsp;

12 Things You Didn't Know About Where's Waldo

Parents of every era have worries and anxieties about raising their kids. Some of those fears are timeless - the fears of bullies, of injury, of heartache. But others change over the years. While those bringing up little ones in the latter 20th century might have fretted over their children <a target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer" href="https://www.ranker.com/list/what-age-can-kids-play-outside-alone/elle-tharp">playing outside</a> after dark, modern parents of the computer age may hem and haw over things like <a target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer" href="https://www.ranker.com/list/public-cell-phone-pet-peeves/jacob-shelton">cell phones</a> and social media.Of course, some screens are something of a given in this day and age. More and more schools incorporate screen-based learning or even remote classes, and, like it or not, it's somewhat necessary for children to learn this technology to be a fully capable and functioning adult member of society.There are many functions of a cell phone that will appeal to parents as well as kids. While a child might argue a phone is necessary to contact and maintain relationships with their friends (who they insist all have cell phones), the phone also allows easy contact between child and parent. Some starter phones even allow parents to track where their child is, which can be potentially life-saving information. Furthermore, there are plenty of phone apps geared towards kids, that enable them to use their device for education, organization, and creativity. Internet access can also help kids form communities and develop their interests beyond the limits of their physical location.Meanwhile, the downsides hardly have to be stated. In addition to an overarching concern that online communication is replacing human-to-human interaction, phones present a number of critical dangers to children. Internet access provides kids the ability to talk to whomever they please, which also creates an opportunity for predators. Social media apps frequently used by kids can lead to cyber bullying and low self-esteem, something many teens are already facing before a phone. There's also the consideration of someone without a fully-developed brain making decisions on their phone and over the internet that can't be erased. Not to mention a phone is an expensive item that you're putting into the hands of a notoriously irresponsible demographic.So whether you consider a phone a technological gift and godsend, or an unfortunately necessary evil these days, vote up the first age a child should be allowed to have a cell phone and vote down any age that is still too young. (For our purposes, let's consider a “cell phone” as having viable internet access - your antique Nokia doesn't count.)&nbsp;

Nowadays, video games are seen as&nbsp;mainstream entertainment that can be enjoyed by everyone. However, that wasn’t always the case,&nbsp;and in the early days of gaming, the hobby was commonly thought of as a children's activity. While this was fine for the most part, the misconception did push some rowdy developers&nbsp;to&nbsp;occasionally create secretly demented&nbsp;video games that kids should not play.&nbsp;Many of the <a href="https://www.ranker.com/crowdranked-list/the-best-games-of-all-time">best titles&nbsp;of all time </a>are almost certainly video games that messed you up as a kid.
