And I had to comment about this one.<br /><br />I left the theater with tears streaming down my cheeks. So did my husband. Our two friends, both single and childless, stayed firm. <br /><br />Like you, I knew about each Wild Thing representing a part of a child's emotional life, but during the movie I was all in. It struck me intensely to see on screen how hard it is being a child. <br /><br />But I think there's so much more to it - adults connect because for the most part we haven't left all of that behind. Not just the wish to chuck it all and sail off to a land of make believe. But we still carry the emotional pains of growing up. <br /><br />We had originally thought it would be too much for our 5 year old. But now we think it might just be good confirmation to him that in fact he's not alone in his confusion about how to approach every day. We'll just be right by his side on the couch at home while he watches.rebekahhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04814599978295161064noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2877454090421566197.post-57656959831321504412009-11-13T00:57:33.604-08:002009-11-13T00:57:33.604-08:00I'm really looking forward to seeing "Wil...I'm really looking forward to seeing "Wild Things" with you.

I am a few days behind on reading blogs and just read your parenting post from a few days ago and LOVED it. Thank you so much for bringing up the topic and the comments were so great to read! As parenthood approaches I think of that stuff a lot so it was a great read for me.<br />In more relevant news, I remember reading "Where the Wild Things Are" to my younger cousin and he did the same thing - looked at me and asked me to read it again. love it.
