What to do?
Today I am faced with the dilemma of letting Carter see the new Incredible Hulk movie. I recently saw a preview on TV and thought it is a bit over the top. It is PG-13 you know. I pulled up the trailer on the internet and thought the same thing. There is just so much intense violence and there are disturbing images everywhere you turn. I know I can't shelter him forever, I just think he needs to be a little older(he's 7) in order to distinguish fact from fiction. I have been trying to help him see that he cannot react in anger every time he does not get his way. It took me about thirty three years to find that out. As I type this, Toni is reading over my shoulder and hit me in the head with her cup. See? Violence is everywhere...Anyway, I just feel what small progression we have made would be trampled in the ground by feeding our hunger for entertainment. Call me weird...but I'm still not letting him go.

You know we kind of screwed up this weekend by letting our kids watch Indian Jones movies. I had only seen bits and pieces over the years and never in their entirity. I am paying for it now...both kids having crazy dreams now and crawling in our bed at 12:00 in the morning...I think you made a good choice!
