Excellent article. Bookmarked!
I remember sitting down with each of my children and watching a video about the occult, Satanism, etc. and then sitting with them afterwards and talking about it in detail.
Something every parent should do in my opinion. The evil is out there tempting the children!!!!
I did do that with the movie "The Exorcist" and told my daughter the real story behind the movie. We also have a good and trustworthy friend who had a Ouiji board bad experience as a kid much like NYer had (who also is a good and trustworthy friend!) - I showed my daughter NYer's written story (she's posted it before on FR) and since our other friend is the mother of my daughter's friend, my daughter knows that story.
Recently my daughter was at a sleepover and the hostess girlfriend wanted to take out her Ouiji board - the rest of the kids there immediately vetoed the suggestion and they ended up watching a movie instead. :-)
LOTR taken in the Catholic light is also a good explanation of Good and Evil.
