What Parents Need to Know
About Hex
Parents need to know that this show is all about magic, and that Cassie, the heroine, doesn't always use her powers for good. The English boarding school setting is rife with cliques and petty teenage backstabbing. But there are also more serious assaults upon Cassie by both her classmates and by an evil fallen angel. Cassie's responses to these incidents make it clear that she can be as vicious as any other angry high school student -- and because most people can't use magic against their rivals, some of these spats end up being decidedly one-sided.

Families Can Talk About
- Families can talk about what they would do if they suddenly discovered they had magical powers. Would it be OK to use magic for purely selfish goals? Despite some of Cassie's poor choices when dealing with unpleasant fellow students, the series' core conflict is nothing less than good vs. evil, and it's clear that in the larger conflict, Cassie is on the side of good. Does that justify any of her questionable behavior?
