There’s an entire generation of moms today who wouldn’t think twice about sitting their kids down in front of Netflix’s new “Baby-Sitters Club” show.
And that, experts warn, is exactly the problem.
Like so many other women, they’re expecting the same innocent storylines they came to love from Ann Martin’s books in the ’80s and ’90s. What they’re getting is anything but.
Say goodbye to the regular cast of characters—and hello to 21st-century lessons in transgenderism, sex, dating apps, divorce, and feminism.
Mom Elisha Krauss assumed—like a lot of women her age—that the show and characters would be just as she remembered them.
“I was even happier when the TV-G rating popped up. Sure enough, when I went to my ‘kids’ profile, it was there too! Front, center, and ready to play. I didn’t even watch the trailer. I eagerly told our girls—four under the age of 11—that I had read the books as a kid and it was a show about hardworking babysitters who are friends in a cute small town.”
Within minutes, Krauss says, her jaw dropped. This wasn’t the Stonybrook, Connecticut, she knew. This was downtown Democratic National Convention headquarters, full of leftist propaganda she couldn’t believe was rated G. “I wouldn’t let these babysitters watch our girls in real life, so why would I let my girls watch them?”
Now, in episode four, the show has taken another disturbing turn—introducing a 9-year-old boy as a girl named Bailey.
