From Harry Potter to Frozen: How We Decide What Our Kids Watch

We recorded this episode because of you. After sharing our recent movie reviews, we received so many thoughtful messages from moms who are trying to navigate what their kids watch and how to think about entertainment in a way that feels wise and intentional. This conversation is not about creating a list of what you should or should not allow in your home. It is about stepping back and asking better questions.In this episode, my mom and I talk through some familiar titles like Harry Potter, Star Wars, Frozen, and Moana, but more importantly, we talk about the why behind what we choose to watch. Just because we grew up with something or because everyone else is watching it does not automatically make it right for our kids. Entertainment is not neutral, and what our children consume is shaping how they see the world, authority, identity, and truth.Our heart is to encourage you, not overwhelm you. You do not have to get it perfect, but you can be intentional. We share a simple framework to help you think through movies before you press play, and how to use what your kids are watching as an opportunity for conversation, not just consumption.Because at the end of the day, we are not just raising kids who watch. We are raising kids who think, who discern, and who are rooted in truth.⁠⁠How to connect with Raising Rock:Learn more about ⁠Raising Rock⁠.Follow Raising Rock on ⁠Instagram⁠ and ⁠Pinterest⁠.⁠⁠ ⁠On our website, you’ll find our products and merch, parenting tools and resources, and a deeper look into who we are and the heart behind Raising Rock.On the Resources page, you’ll also discover free downloads created just for families—practical tools to help you raise a ROCK, a Playlist For The Heart, and more.As a thank-you for being a podcast listener, enjoy 20% off your first order with code PODCAST20 (one-time use per customer).Subscribe and listen on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, YouTube, or wherever you get your podcasts.
