      You could sympathize with Carlie Brown and though he struggled he probably had a bright future with Marcy whose kids probably go to Stanford or Harvard. Caillou on the other hand wouldn't amount to cow crap as a human being growing up just an entitled brat.

    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

    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.

    When I was in college I had an art instructor who was once an animator for that show and his director constantly critiqued how Cailou's head wasn't round enough, which was odd since he used a stencil for that... Obviously not his proudest contract but we all gotta get paid somehow

      same here for the most part, honestly i hated caillou when i grew up since there were better shows, granted i was more of a fan of watch sonic X and TMNT on saturday mornings than most of the pbs broadcasts.

    The concept of having a very flawed child that learns lessons over time is a solid idea, but the show really does not handle it well. Caillou rarely gets comeuppance for his constant misbehavior, he never really learns important lessons. Its not even really his own fault, the parents are just way too kind to him...I'm all for caring and loving parenting, but there is definitely such a thing as being too nice.

    I have witnessed Caillou hate in person. I saw this kid and his mom at the library recently, and the kid pulled a Caillou book off the shelf. The mom told him no, because all Caillou does is whine and throw tantrums. I laughed and agreed.

      I had someone in my church put an anti caillou petition on Facebook. That left me confused, as the show was pretty much dead for years at that point. I ask why in the comment section, and she left a rather long reply about how “cailou is a bad influence for children.”
