Parental Guidance always suggested

Are you relying on the G, PG, PG-13 and R ratings to determine which movies your kids can see? I would advise against that. I have seen R-rated movies portray the best in man dealing with the violence of war that would be character-building for older children to view. I've also witnessed PG movies where the central theme of the story is how much the children can disrespect the parents' a horrible message. As a father, first find out what's in the potential movie your children want to see and then determine whether it's helpful or harmful to your kids based on their age and understanding. Movies can be incredibly powerful teaching tools if you and your kids go see a great flick together. But your guidance is always suggested.
