cartoon network seems to cater to teenagers and adults.
young children should stick to nickelodeon.

Ben 10 is okay, my kids can watch it though i kind of prefer the cartoons of the old days...

When my kid, then as a 2year-old started slapping her wrist and trying to disappear, while not allowing me to watch football, or my wife watch her favorite series, we had to shut out Ben 10 permanently out of my home.
I personally deem it too violent for under 10s, with absolutely no positives. big ups to the creators though, the franchise brings great merchandise.
Now, they are permanently on 'Barney and friends' and loving it big time. At least they learn loads o rhymes and animals stuff. That's what under 5s ought to learn, not some violent super hero.

Any body who like graphics of 3D animation...will find ben10's Features interesting,I watch it from 10ben as a title to Ben 10: Omniverse the final series.
Its all about 10-year-old Benjamin Tennyson finds an alien device out in the woods, the Omnimatrix (Omnitrix for short), which allows him to turn into ten different alien species: Wildmutt, Four Arms, Grey Matter, XLR8, Upgrade, Diamondhead, Ripjaw, Stinkfly, Cannonbolt, and Heatblast. Throughout his summer vacation, traveling the world in the "Rust Bucket" with his Grandpa Max and his cousin Gwen Tennyson, Ben fights crime and evil aliens with his new powers, gaining the ability to turn into ten more aliens: Ghostfreak, Wildvine, Benwolf, Benmummy, Benvicktor, Ditto, Upchuck, Eye Guy, Way Big, and Eon.
The cartoon is violent and mystical but quit educating...I knw this for sure cause it made my nephew thinks he cant imitate the character ben 10 in the real world, he goes about with his ben10 wrist watch and neva took it off. Another side of what I equally saw was stubbornness, the cartoon instill that spirit and it took God power to correct it..but it thought him alot too, like states in the USA, names and love for gadgets..how many kids at age 4 knows how to operate a smartphone,in his case he could pull up a menu bar n locate,calender,contacts and sms even games, he became inquisitive in science and love maths after and icon in the character azmuth the frog-like being known to be most intelligent in the world....I think what really help him more was grounding him from watching the program if he's stubborn. He became more advance at age 3 by knowing the channel number and time of program...hahaha. I think it okay for a kid to watching the program with a watchful eye.

When a kid who sees two adults quarreling tells a man to cut off a woman's head, since in Ben 10, she can always 'fix' it back, then you know some experiences are not needed to be the best teacher.

Do you know there's p.orn in cartoon form, is that meant for kids too?

I won't recommend Ben 10 for children under 12 years old cos of the violent scenes. Even the dialogue is not something an average 5 year old will understand. As much as I dislike teletubbies and the likes, I enjoy watching my two year old sing and dance along with them. We have to be careful about what our children watch on tv, most of them are moulded by what they watch.

No effect whatsoever but the key is creating a balance in what they watch and a balance between what they watch and other entertainment and a balance between entertainment and other life building activities. The key is balance. Most things in life are survivable only if taken in correct doses.

Re: Is Ben 10 Cartoon Appropriate For Children? by wemeri: 7:29pm On Jun 29, 2013
i think parents should be involved in the kind of things their children watch on tv. i remember the 1st time myself and my sisters watched superman. we were all still in primary school. after watching, we tied wrappers round our necks and started running around our estate with the hope to somehow take off and fly. wen dis didn't work, my younger sister attempted to jump from the 3rd floor of our building with the conviction that it would work. Thank God for a neighbour who came around at that time.

Jeezuzpick: My opinion,

Ben 10 is not ok for kids of any age, [s]all I've seen of Ben 10 is it teaches kids they don't need their parents.
[/s]
Just like the goofballs Ed, Edd n' Eddy, where there are no parents in sight, [s]Ben10 kinda gets your kids to live in a world of their own,[/s] and trust me, you don't want a life in which your kids ignore or just tolerate you!

Couple the above with the violence, feed it to your kids and be ready to "host" a pack of sinister, individualistic teens who just tolerate you for your cash olny!

My opinion.
I like how you put this down. I disagree with almost all the points though

Bros I feel you. When Ben 10 is too corrupt for kids, Pirates should be educative. At least it will teach them wat mummy and daddy do at night. Lol.

Initially I never saw anything wrong with Ben 10 until I started watching it with my kids, boy right now Cartoon Network is a complete no no for my kids the cartoons are too violent scary and indecent with really vulgar language. They now watch Disney junior and boomerang. Please study what your kids watch my son 6 used to have nightmares and used to be very scared until I stopped him watching Cartoon Network.
