My son Colby wants to share his thoughts with AFF reg Disney Movie
Colby age 9
My 9 yr old son has approached me about doing a "thread" on his thoughts about the recent DVD release of "Bridge to Terabithia".
He handed me a piece of paper with these words:
"There is a movie called Bridge to Terabithia, I think you all have heard of it. Well I'm surprised that Disney would make a movie with cussing and one of the main characters dies."
He would like your thoughts on the matter--

I don't know anything about the movie, but I think Colby is one smart and adorable kid!!! And I agree that Disney has recently really pushed the limits on some of its movies. They are no longer a kid-friendly company, in my opinion.

Smart boy. Disney is pushing the limits. They will creep things in little by little.. and eventually it will be accepted. That's how it goes. There's an agenda, whether people want to accept that or not.

Berk,
This is the reason that some hold such a strong stand against tv. Because the erosion is so subtle that many do not realize that they are slowly becoming desensitized to things of this world. The fact is, we are not even supposed to think upon corrupt and evil things, much less find our entertainment in such. Our thoughts are to be on things that are good and pure. This knocks 9/10ths of todays entertainment out the door.
Colby has a good eye for things that are good and pure. As he continues to abstain from things that are not, and fills himself with the good things of God, God will visit him in a greater degree.

I am beginning to lean in the "no tv" direction. I've noticed a lot lately.

And I just thought.....
Isn't it great that a kid only 9 years old (totally cute by the way  ) is sensitized because of teaching and example when something is unsuitable?

Hello Colby,
My name is Steve.
This is a very good observation about this movie. It is very important that we evaluate what we see on TV or even the internet.
Many people are not Christian and I think you can help people make better choices not only about shows but even in real life.
I would encourage you to send some comments and your picture to Disney and let them know you were disappointed.
Steve Hoover
