What Parents Need to Know
About Surviving Disaster
Parents need to know that this series is designed to teach regular people how to survive natural disasters and violent crimes. The extreme situations range from avalanches to bank robberies to airplane hijackings and, while simulated, are very realistic -- including some very intense fighting sequences and graphic shots of grisly injuries. On the plus side, there's little in the way of sex, drinking, or language to worry about, and the host is a model of strong, capable leadership.
