My eight year old thinks this show is really good. I am the one with body issues and she knows I struggle. We have already talked about how girls often see themselves through a critical filter - ...

My Biggest Challenge Is:
Titles You’ve Reviewed
TV: How to Look Good Naked
I rate this titleonand give itWatch this WITH your child

TV: iCarly
I rate this titleiffyand give itExtremely Disappointed
This show creator (also does Josh and Drake) has a thing about being mean. The sidekick girl on iCarly is horribly mean - shoves a kid into a locker for no reason - and it is relentless. I am ...

DVD: Hairspray (2007)
I rate this titleonand give it
DVD: High School Musical 2
I rate this titleonand give it
DVD: The Last Mimzy
I rate this titleonand give it
DVD: Nacho Libre
I rate this titleiffyand give itSo Bad, Not Just Lame But BAD
I took my daughter who's seven and what we didn't expect was how violent the wrestling scenes were - she was distressed by the punching, hitting, kicking, slamming, beating and more that all happens ...

TV: Just for Kicks
I rate this titleonand give itMore than just kicks
This is a great show to watch with your daughter to talk about issues that come up (as early as first grade) and to discuss issues that will happen as she gets older. The cast is diverse and the ...

TV: The Wonder Pets!
I rate this titleonand give itBrain Numbing

DVD: Hoodwinked
I rate this titleonand give itI'll take decaf, thank you very much!
This movie is a hoot - it's not fantastic, but it is fun with good jokes for grown-ups too. And I have always told my daughter she doesn't need the caffine! After this, she believes me! It's ...

DVD: Junebug
I rate this titleonand give itGot me thinking...
This is a good movie to watch with a maturing teen to talk about values, relationships and how we all come together at times. The movie does creep up on you and there's a watershed moment that keeps ...

DVD: Super Size Me
I rate this titleiffyand give itMust Watch with Your Kids
I actually watched this with my almost-six year old. I didn't expect her to like it, but she was really engaged. We paused the movie constantly to explain things (like even the word obesity) and I ...

TV: Foster's Home for Imaginary Friends
I rate this titleonand give itSo Darn Funny
We watch this show together - with Gramma - on Friday nights. It is great - funny, clever, colorful - and while someone might be called stupid, it's usually accurate (!) and there are some good ...
