I try to avoid watching things that glorify sin... and while this movie has the girl facing the hardship of an unexpected pregnancy, the message is clearly that premarital sex is cool... just use protection.

Here's the review by Plugged in online (part of Focus on the Family)
http://www.pluggedinonline.com/movies/movies/a0003547.cfm

The last line of the review is:
"For teens themselves, though, who are already swimming in the culture, Juno will only reinforce the complete lack of a moral compass."
"A man convinced against his will is of the same opinion still." Anonymous

"Arguing with some people is like wrestling with a pig, at the end you are both filthy and exhausted –and you get the distinct feeling that the pig enjoyed the experience."

At first I thought it was a movie about Alaska :lol: but my son set me straight on that. I have seen small clips of it but would not let my 13 year old (I actually have one) daughter watch it.

Would you let your 13 year old watch JUNO?

Disclaimer:

I have no idea what you are talking about.... What is this Juno?

Secondly, I hope we didn't offer something of controversial nature here that I didn't know about.

Parents are still the ones with the authority to make those kinds of decisions.

I just asked if parents would let their 13 year old watch the movie. Don't make it more than it is.
