Kids: Today, I found out that my daughter has been watching Supernatural...

Today, I found out that my daughter has been watching Supernatural and The X-Files so she'll fit in better at school. I'm not even angry that she's suddenly a brain-dead conformist, it's just that she now has nightmares all the time and insists on sleeping in my bed. She's a kicker. FML

Today, I had to pick my daughter up from pre-school because she repeatedly hit another kid with a stick. Apparently, my parents have been letting her watch violent action movies again. FML

Today, my daughter was acting strange. When she wasn’t muttering in some strange language, she was talking about invisible people coming to get me. Terrified, I called my boyfriend. Turns out he taught her that as a prank. He knows I’m afraid of anything supernatural. FML

Today, I discovered that for the last six months my mother has been leaving my TV on FOX while I sleep, in the hope that my subconscious will absorb it and turn me into "a morally-upright human being". FML

Today, my daughter hugged me around the neck and whispered, "I'm going to cut your head off." I'm afraid to go to sleep now. FML

Today, I walked in on my daughter hugging and sobbing into her Edward Cullen cut-out. She won't tell me what's wrong, yet she can confide in a creepy fictional stalker whose facial expression is locked to "chronically constipated". Where did I go wrong? FML

Today, I was doing my nightly check of my daughter's phone since a recent stint in the psych hospital, and saw that she had fallen into a peaceful sleep to watching videos on a website dedicated to watching people die. FML

Today, my parents watched a horror movie with some creepy child in it. Apparently, I sound just like that kid when I call for my mom, so now she doesn't want me to call her mom anymore. FML

Today, my daughter’s sleepwalking has been so bad that none of us has slept more than a few hours a night in weeks. We took her to a pediatrician, who referred her to a sleep clinic for children that has no openings for 6 months. My boyfriend is convinced my house is haunted, scaring the other kids. FML

Today, my ten-year-old daughter now has a habit of going up to random strangers and acting all scared before pointing behind them and whispering, "El Diablo." FML

I don't blame her for watching Supernatural. Jensen Ackles is HOT.

At least you didn't catch her listening to One Direction and Justin Bieber, and reading Twilight.That's the ultimate level of brain-dead.

I'm going to go out on a limb here and assume OPs daughter is fairly young. either that or I'm retarded and there is some odd parenting going on here.

Tell her that having nightmares from watching horror shows isn't worth it because though it seems important now, in 20 years she'll just see it as a stupid episode of her life where she watched horror shows (yes, one of the genres for Supernatural and X Files is HORROR even if some people aren't scared by them) to try to fit in with people she probably won't even be talking to in 5 years time. Showing her true colours and being accepted by people who actually care is better than trying to fit in and being rejected by the people who never will care.

I didn't know watching good tv shows makes somebody a brain dead conformist.

Hopefully she'll come to realize that they're just shows and it's all fictional. For your sake and hers.

would you rather she watched "jersey shore" and "mob wives" to fit in? at least your daughter's friends have good taste in television, and those shows probably won't be detrimental to your daughter's character or intelligence. both "supernatural" and "the x-files" are extremely intelligent and relevant shows. what i'd recommend is that you watch them with your daughter. it's a great bonding opportunity and she would probably appreciate the company when the scary parts come on.

My thoughts, too! I'd love to watch X-Files with my daughter when she's older. I'll take the nightmares over her being obsessed with something like Glee.

well, glee's not so bad, really. i only watch it sporadically, and it's horrendously camp, but harmless. unlike jersey shore and big brother, which glamorize and encourage willful ignorance and bad manners. but yeah, at least she's getting into good television, anyway. this OP needs to chill the beans.
