[@henryisthere]

Mr. Rogers never chose to act on what leads to hate. He was a truly giving kind and compassionate man. People don’t want the world to have hate. Those kids showed us that. I love Mr. Rogers and how he showed us that it’s okay to have concerns and confusion about a difficult world, but to face it with optimism. An optimism derived not from dogma, but from a choice. I am not a perfect person. I have made mistakes, taken people for granted, and have let anger get the better of me in the past. However, I always choose to face the world with the optimism that the man in the Red Cardigan taught me.

[@Magicconchshell1]

The reason Fred didn’t let it slip that Francois was gay was because they would not allow him to be on tv if the producers knew he was gay, don’t smear Mr. Rogers like that.

[@para-modic7974]

He said that. And I quote "he was afraid of them taking away his children"

[@omegagiga43]

His wife says it perfectly. He always had the audience of adults in mind and did not want them to take away his children. It's unfortunate, but if Francois came out during that time period, the show would have been canceled, cutting all of Mr. Rogers' wholesome goodness and life lessons short. It was the practical thing to do. Heartbreaking? Of course. But it had to be done. That said, I don't think Mr. Rogers would have done that today. He definitely would have had an openly gay person on the show at some point.

[@janicefriedlander3892]

Mr. Rogers was a decent, compassionate, and loving individual who deeply cared about children. He addressed important issues with them including death, divorce, handicapped individuals, racial matters, etc. in an honest and straightforward manner that they could understand in order to allay their fears. I definitely would love to see a revival of this show on PBS or any other station which I'm sure many other parents would agree we could use right now. For me and for those of you who remember his show, I believe that sometimes simple is better. Our children need the kind of caring and loving values that he espoused on his show every single day.

I think if Mister Rogers could see the cultural and political climate today, knowing that many people in each category grew up watching him, would feel that maybe he failed. He taught us to love and respect one another, but those values are nearly extinct today. He taught us to show kindness to each other, but today people are so quick to rush to anger. He taught us to open our hearts to each other, but two people sitting on a bus next to each other today are so engrossed in their phones, that they don't realize that a new friend might be sitting right next to them, if only they would acknowledge them and say hello. The attitudes we carry today, and the lack of love we have for each other now is an exact contradiction to what Mister Rogers taught our young minds so many years ago. I believe that with sadness, he would feel like he did his best to teach us good from bad, right from wrong, love from hate, and he might feel that he failed us. But that's not the way it is. WE failed him.

[@johnsmith6974]

The world changed after his death, the housing market crashed, the big three car companies took huge bailouts, thousands of people lost their jobs in the recession that still grows to this day. And new families can't afford what their parents could. The world changed so while you see angry and turmoil, I see men and women fighting to create and preserve a better world for Americans

[@sylviayoung1901]

@Martin Kuhn...he impressed and changed the world because he had true Faith in God, not perverted religion, all our morality and manners have been stripped away from everyone for the rights of the few who were offended by being taught right and wrong...morals and to love non judgmentally...to allow one another to live and let live. For the rights of Madeline O'Hare those of us who believed were tossed aside. Don't get me wrong...I believe if you don't wish to believe, are Pagan, Wicca, Atheist other religions have at it! What is wrong with the 10 Commandments...learning right from wrong and the love found in 1 Corinthians 13!? It's simply divisive hate. It's done nothing but drive us apart. As the Good book says...A house divided can not stand...believe as you see fit but do so as NEIGHBORS! God bless.

[@anneoneal3865]

@@sylviayoung1901 You're blaming non-believers for the state of the world?

[@sectorsweep14]

The reason Mr. Rogers has failed was because his worldview was inherently flawed. He believed that all people are pretty much equal, and that we can all live together in peace, but this is not true at all. Different groups have different behavior and different interests pertaining to which direction the country should go, so naturally there is bound to be deep conflict and division in a multiracial, multicultural society where people share no common bond except the land they live on. Frankly, it's just common sense that Indians, Chinese, Ugandans, Irish, etc. are very different in many more ways than physical appearance, and that one society can not meet the need and desires of such radically different people.

[@erinwallace5644]

There was a Fred Rogers stream on Twitch one day and my eleven year old son and I watched it all day. My eleven year old couldn't get enough of Mr. Rogers (and he has given up cartoons and "kids shows" as too little for him). He said that he liked that he was gentle and kind and that he talked to kids about things that they wanted to know about but that older people think they won't understand. Fred Rogers was a great man. And we do need someone like him now, someone who can speak to children about the tough stuff in a way that they can understand. One only needs to look at the current state of our country (the anger, the hate, the unforgiveness) to know that we need Mr Rogers.

[@rubykelly2305]

That was part of what made him so incredible. He talked to kids about things that other adults didn't want to, and he didn't talk down to them. He used terms they could understand, but he never talked down to them. He respected them and he made them feel special. I'm glad I grew up as his neighbour.

Well, Jimmy Stewart if we had a time machine. Watch Mr. Smith Goes to Washington, then compare it to the video of Mr. Rogers speaking before the senate. The resemblance is uncanny. Current actors, though, I think Tom Hanks will do a good job.

I like Norton, but he could never pull off a convincing Mr. Rogers. He could manifest the most masterful acting of his career, but I just can't imagine being able to suspend my impression that the guy on screen is a bit of a dick. Physical resemblance should not be the first criterium when making casting decisions. You need a genuinely nice person to portray someone as profoundly wholesome as Fred Rogers. By all accounts, Tom Hanks does fit the bill.

This Man raised my Grandson, Great Grandson, and Great Great Grandson by them watching the Television Set, and he was 11 months older then my Son. I will forever respect this man not only because his words were true, but the fact that he spent most of his life making others feel better when they were sad, teaching the younger generations how to be nice and respectful, and just always doing good by other people. Although I was probably born a few years after his parents "1906" he still has made most people's lives better including myself.

At 47 years now....I STILL sit and watch in awe and wonder! Today's generation truly NEEDS Mr. Rogers.
