I just checked out somehting online and now I'm in a panic. S told me yesterday that they were going to see a movie at school today. I asked the teacher today and she said they were watching the second half of a Tom and Jertry movie. My first thought was the old Tom and Jerry cartoons which have a lot of violence. They were already told that she reacts to any violence. So I figured (or should I say hoped) that it might be a newer movie version. I just looked up Tom and Jerry the movie, the only movie version I found, and this is the review-The popular cartoon cat and mouse are thrown into a feature film. The story has the twosome trying to help an orphan girl who is being berated and exploited by a greedy guardian.
Oh my gosh!! I certainly hope this isn't the one they are watching. I will be marching my way right into the principals office for an emergency meeting to address this if I find out this is the one they saw. I will see the fallout tonight if she saw this one. I know just what they will think, mom is being so overprotective. I will wait until my meeting Thursday with the teacher before getting too upset over it. What is the solution? Take her out of class when they show objectionable things? Ask to watch it with her? I'm grateful for her new social awareness of being like everyone else, but it may be hard if I have to be selective with what she sees.
All in all, things are going well. Today was no uniform day, which she was anxious about, she said she just wanted to wear her uniform. She didn't wear her uniform today, and didn't say anything about it this morning. Thank God it's Friday, I am exhausted.
