About this blog

This blog looks at how families express themselves and provides practical suggestions for improving communication.  Of course, "effective" and "improving" are value-laden terms, so while you may not agree with each of my suggestions, I do hope you'll keep stopping by to find the nuggets that work for you and those you love.  As you find ideas of value, please share this page with others.

Best Movie Review Sites for Parents - #1: Kids in Mind

movie-and-popcorn “Can I go with my friends to see Inception?”

How do you answer that question?  “Sure.”  “Who are you going with?”  “What’s it rated?”  “Who’s driving?”

Head on over to Kids in Mind which rates movies with parents in mind.  It provides three numerical assessments – Sex/Nudity, Violence/Gore, and Profanity.  Each category is scored on a scale of 0-10 with details provided to explain the score.  You do have to wade through a lot of pop-ups and ads, but I find that it’s worth it when I need to assess the appropriateness of a movie for one or more of our three children.
