July 31-August 1 || Find out what your children are watching
With movie theaters reopening across the country, now is a great time to add another website to your collection of parenting resources: Catholic News Services’ staff reviews movies from a uniquely Catholic perspective, noting things like nudity, swearing, and other problematic themes that have become mainstream in ratings like PG and PG-13. Parents can vet movies their children are planning to see or may encounter at friends’ houses. Talk to your children about what they should do if a friend wants to see a questionable movie, and why you want them to avoid particular films.
