We dug into the dvd archive and pulled out the first couple seasons of 7th Heaven for our evening tv viewing.
The kids have enjoyed it and we like the values represented and the positive portrayal of family. It has sparked some interesting conversation and some topics, like dealing with a family member's alcoholism, have brought up a lot of emotions in the kids as they talk about their own families' problems. They also laugh at how gigantic the cell phones were back in 1996.
Another thing that Ana and I have found humorous is that our kids are grossed out whenever the parents on the show kiss. On the other hand, Ana and I think it's pretty yucky when the teenagers on the show are kissing.
Ah, the generation gap!
