    Caillou is a perfect example of the pendulum theory. They learned through studies that spanking and talking down to kids was bad. So they did the opposite, spoiled him rotten. I think caillou genuinely made me question the harshness of parenting when I was little. But the anger towards him as an adult helps us regulate that. I think he set us up to be gentle AND effective parents. Only time will tell for sure tho

      ​@@lagopusvulpuz1571There's a HUGE difference though. Humans have complex social societies, morals, high cognition, language and so much more that separates us from them. There little ones only require a nip or a swat to teach them because their cognitive level isn't as complex as humans. Humans should be teaching their children good morals, empathy, respect, honesty etc. Spanking won't teach them any of that.

    I work with autistic preschoolers and one of my kids a few years ago acted like a complete brat, throwing tantrums whenever he didn’t get his way, and being mean to his peers. We spoke to his mom and she told us that he watched “nothing but caillou”, which we thought because he would repeated Caillous lines from the show in a sort of scripted way , even when he tantrum. We literally told her to cut out Caillou, and start disciplining him whenever he misbehaved (she really wasn’t doing that at all) and his behavior improved a lot afterwards.

    Cailou’s problem was him trying to be both relatable and a role model for kids. Role models aren’t supposed to be relatable, they’re supposed to be an ideal that you should to live up to. For example, Elmo isn’t very relatable as a character. What kids are supposed to do is look at how kind and compassionate Elmo is, notice the way all his friends love him, internalize that, and grow up with the message of treating others with kindness. Same goes for Superman. Cailou should’ve either been unrealistically kind and well behaved, or be a realistic toddler and get visibly punished for his actions.

      Don't forget that they also made several episodes that attacked their critics. A great example is The Return of Slade: where they tease one of the best villains of the original animation, then they make a stupid quip and make it an episode about how adults shouldn't be watching things for children. Which I think is the worst thing you could even joke about. Parents should know what their children see. And the very reason people would watch the show is to introduce what they loved to their kids.

    Great video...in all fairness, it seems like Caillou's behavior not only improved later in the run (aka the "yellow shirt" era), but he also learned from his mistakes, such as the episode where he and Leo make their friend Clementine cry after calling her "stupid", then after Rosie picks up said term, Calliou's mom sets him straight, and he subsequently apologizes to Clementine.

      Shit I'll be real here and just say that I liked Caillou as a child. Listen be honest guys. A large part of children had to like this show for it to be successful. Think about it like this though. Your a kid who doesn't know what is good, so a child getting whatever he wanted seemed like heaven lol. Thank god my mother and father weren't dumb enough to just let me act like that character. Now I look back at it in disgust. God it kills me to think that I liked this as a child, but your very impressionable as a child so it makes sense. Which is even more of a reason that if you are a parent you should monitor what your children are experiencing on television and through their daily life. Basically what I'm saying is..... don't just sit them in front of some shit like cocomelon and make the same mistake your parents did with Caillou lol.

    As a child who was raised on Caillou until it was banned from the house, I can absolutely attest to it's influence on kids. As soon as I started to watch the show regularly, I began to emulate his behaviors and think that my tantrums and poor treatment of others would be rewarded, like in the show. I was a complete nightmare to deal with, and when parents started to catch on this show was to blame, my Mom followed suit and I was never allowed to watch it again. The entitlement this show taught did child-me damage for years to come.

      I've got a similar situation going on. Kid's smart beyond his years, but the lack of discipline makes him do things that I'm surprised he isn't bullied into the next dimension for. Especially the way he's being conditioned to treat women due to his role models in that regard. There isn't help for it really, spoiling and not disciplining your kid isn't seen as abuse as it's technically not harming their physical well-being, even though it will once they get old enough for their misguided view of the world to start having consequences.

    It would have been nice if when Cailou had a melt down, his parents actually sat down and talked to him about why he blew up and how he could have reacted differently, and administered a punishment appropriate for his age and the scale of his mistake. If we contrasted with how Cailou thought things would turn out in his imagination with the reality of what actually happened. Instead we just got meltdown after meltdown with zero consequences. I'm convinced AOK's Cailou the Grown Up series is exactly how Cailou ended up.
