I have a 6 year old daughter, B. While I'd like to think of her as this intelligent and sophisticated movie watcher (like her mommy!
), she's still 6 years old.
I take her to watch movies on a regular basis. Normally it's on opening weekend. My only movie mistake thus far was Mean Girls. I thought it would be a better version of Confessions of a Teenage Drama Queen... Mean Girls was a good movie... don't get me wrong... but not for B.
R and FB take B to the movies too. Mostly crap, but sometimes... PG 13. After I had told R about Mean Girls and how inappropriate it was for B to watch it, he took her to see it... with the 19 year odl girlfriend.
This weekend passed and B told me that her daddy took her and FB to see... Meet the Fockers.
Now, I saw that movie without B and it was NOT a movie for kids.
I will let B watch a PG movie within reason. Both Shreks are PG, as was Confessions of a Teenage Drama Queen . But you can usually tell when a PG isn't kid friendly.
What do you think? What do you let your kids watch? Am I being too freaked out about the Fockers? :confused:
What are your movie limits for your kids?
