[QUOTE="Marguerite, post: 79043, member: 1991"] A serious suggestion - before you watch a movie like that WITH her, sit and watch it without her and see what you think. Another movie which taught easy child 2/difficult child 2 to be an individual rather than run with the pack - "The Craft". Again, don't just sit with her to watch it on my say-so. See it for yourself and decide if you feel it's appropriate. Maybe in a year or more... you know her best. "The Craft" is very dark with the witchcraft etc but the end lesson is good - 'don't try to manipulate the world and everybody in it just for your own amusement. When you do that, you pay a heavy price and you hurt people. But when you go more carefully, thinking of others, good things come back to you.' There are other films, other TV shows, which teach a great deal but without the seamier side or the heavy rating. I'm sure we can all think of some. I remember my kids watching "Degrassi Junior High" and more recently, the "Return to Degrassi". This series should be available on DVD. Marg [/QUOTE]
