“It breaks my heart to read “make an informed decision whether to take your kids to see it”. I can imagine that in some religious conservative parts of the world young children may require some explanation before (or after) seeing this movie, but since the married women seem to fall under the “love your neighbor as you love yourself” rule, this relationship - had it been a real live relationship - would be the will of God, even if we decide not to accept this.”

So IOW, the immutable Will is simply something that we can mash together and only use our feely sense to discern right from wrong.

Gotcha.

At almost 75, I'm am so glad I don't have grandchildren/great-grandchildren in this day and age. Although my grandchildren would probably be in their 20's or early 30's ( my two sons are in their 50's), I don't have to be concerned with any of them being indoctrinated or perverted by the school system, Hollywood, or the government. I wouldn't want to be young today, and try to bring up kids in this world, or see my grandchildren bring up their children. I have a niece who has 4 children...the oldest graduating high school, and going to college on a soccer scholarship in the fall. My niece lost her father, my brother, when she was 16 (1995). He died of a massive heart attack at home, in front of her and her older siblings, when she was 16.

I won't say I don't know how they do it, because I do know how they do it. Both work...she during the day, and her husband works evenings, so there isn't a gap in parenting. My niece, who is the supervisor of a hospital lab, has made sure her kids are up-to-snuff when it comes to their school grades. She and her husband have promoted sports for their two sons and twin daughters (my niece played basketball and other sports in high school), from the time the kids were in grammar school. Their schedules are hectic. School nights are full of practices. Many weekends are spent on the road, out of state for soccer tournaments, but they haven't let that stop them from making their kids, their number one priority. What their kids do with their lives after their formative years is up to them. Their parents at least, have given them a solid foundation to stand on once they are on their own. My brother would be very proud of her. I know my sister-in-law is.
