Is that movie okay for your child to see?

I am constantly challenged with "is that movie okay for my child to see?" or "What about that video game? is it appropriate?"

I've started using Commonsense.org as a guide to selecting movies, websites, video games, music and TV shows for my family.

It breaks everything down, language, violence, sex, alcohol & drug use, consumerism. It even tells you what kind of message it sends to children, for instance in their review of Despicable Me tells you that there may be a concern particularly for adoptive families because of the way orphans and orphanages are portrayed. This is a concern for my family and I will be better prepared to talk to her about the portrayal should we decide to even see the movie.
