Bad Mommy
I recorded Dumbo today and thought it would be fun to watch with Abigail. I started the movie and we were so excited for the mommy elephant when the stork brought her a baby. Abigail almost cried with joy when the mommy unwrapped her new baby. "He's so cute mommy. Look how happy the mommy is." It was at about that time when my father called. I was talking to my father for a few minutes when I heard Abigail start to mumble something and I am sad to say that I didn't turn around immediately. A moment went by and she started to get very upset. I told my father I would call him back and I turned around to see tears streaming down her face and she was shaking, "They're being mean! They're being mean! Why are they doing that?" I looked at the screen and saw men taking the mommy away from her baby and tying her up. I turned the movie off and tried to comfort my girl. When she finally settled down, I called my father back. Several minutes in the conversation Abigail walked up to me and said, "Mommy that movie was very inappropriate for me."

Didn't Aunt KeeKee give you the Disney movie lecture? The one where the moms are dead or die. Would definitely avoid Bambi!
ReplyDelete.........I avoid any animal movie for the most part...and it's because of me....not any kids.
ReplyDelete@Nora: I know better. I really don't know what I was thinking. I didn't let Donny watch Dumbo and have no idea why I let Abigail. I have started a fund for her future therapy to hopefully right my wrong.
