Is This What They Call "G" These Days?

I did not watch this movie, but overheard it in the next room as my girls watched it. The movie may be 99% wholesome and appropriate, but there is one line in it that is so offensive and over the top that I cannot recommend it to anybody. It is where these pre-teens who have arranged a date for their dad, broach the topic of "safe sex" with him. He says something like "I'm 40 years old and know what I'm doing." Excuse me?

I don't know the plot. Are the dad and his date divorced? Are they widowed? I don't know - but in the real world children do not get so geeked about their parent having premarital sex with someone that is not their parent. The fact is that most children of divorce wish their parents would get back together and are horrified about their parents (especially the parent of the opposite sex) sleeping with someone else. And if the children are "modern" and "resilient" as this movie's stars are portrayed, still they tend to cope with the topic of parental sex with a non-parent by not thinking about it.

My kids seemed to really enjoy this movie. But I am offended that a "G" movie would imply the normality of discussion about sex-with-a-non-parent between children of divorce and their parents. Our society looks the other way at the emotional toll divorce exacts on its children, and the looseness with which we portray sexuality. Family courts, divorce attorneys, and some counselors give us "happy talk" about how divorce can actually be a good thing for kids. Apparently now "G" rated movies can be added to the list.

ONE OF THEIR BEST MOVIES!!!!!!!!!!

I am an Olsen fan and I loved this movie. Its about 2 girls who put an ad in the billboard and their dad doesent know till they get millions of letters and the twins explain. Then he falls in love with this one woman and find out the rest when you buy or rent it. Just dont be an idiotic jerk who hates the Olsen, got it? July 27, 2005
