Some subjects just seem hard to teach and hard to know how to approach them. So when I heard about some videos that the Sun Swing Media Company is working to produce I was definitely interested.
They sent me their first video called "The Decision" which shows what some kids do when they encounter (p)ornography.
I must admit the first time I watched it, I loved the lesson it taught but thought the graphics were a bit cheesy. But then I showed it to my children and the discussions that ensued and the the things we were able to discuss made it totally worth it and I am excited to see what video they produce next.
The Sun Swing Media company has received permission from The Church of Jesus Christ to turn many stories from the kids' magazine The Friend into these movies, and hope to have 30 movies when they are all finished.
If you want to support this great cause or just even want to get this video for yourself so you can help teach your kids- you can download it by clicking here and it is only $1!
Disclaimer: I received this movie for free to view but all feelings and opinions are my own.
Ugh, I don't even want to think about it. But you're right, when the time comes, I want them to hear the right information from me, not elsewhere. Thanks for sharing this.
ReplyDeleteWhat worries me is when my 8 year old asks, "What's gay marriage?" And then you have so many different things to talk about. :(
ReplyDeleteSo many challenging conversations ahead of me.
ReplyDeleteWell that is really interesting. I just wish we didn't even have to talk about this stuff with our kids. Anything that makes it easier for them to understand is good.
ReplyDeleteIt's wonderful that they're doing this. I am definitely not looking forward to those talks. By the time my sons are old enough, I'm sure there will be a ton of other issues as well :/
ReplyDeleteGreat to know! Having already starting having some "talks" with one of mine, I'm always looking for something that will help me out!
ReplyDeleteOh goodness...haven't thought about having "the talk" yet with my kids, but I'm sure it's right around the corner.
ReplyDeleteCool idea, though :)
Ugh...I don't even want to think abuot giving "the talk" but I know I will have to...least I have some time!
ReplyDeleteThat's cool. I'll have to check it out. Thanks for sharing this!
ReplyDeleteGreat info to pass along, Emily!
