Codie the problem is on several "levels"

There is the spiritual level (the one I am most interested in), an emotional level and a psychologically level.

..The occult is not make believe IMHO It is real. This exposes children to the thought that they can control other people with spells and potions. This is not healthy psychologically or spiritually. it is looking other than to God and it teaches children that it is OK to tamper with the wills of others.

The movies also show a disrespect for adults and a bit of rule breaking and disrespect.

I have a saying I used on my kids and now they uses on theirs.."Garbage in garbage out" We should not let things that are not of God into our kids minds

As a Protestant I always look to the word for answers on this topic it tells us this

Phl 4:8 Finally, brethren, whatsoever things are true, whatsoever things [are] honest, whatsoever things [are] just, whatsoever things [are] pure, whatsoever things [are] lovely, whatsoever things [are] of good report; if [there be] any virtue, and if [there be] any praise, think on these things.

I have never discussed this with my adult kids , but I found out that all of them refuses to allow their kids to see it (even my 15 year old RC grandaughter could not see it) I am so proud of the discernment my kids have shown..they "got it":>)
