"Family Matters" Radio Column: Kids' Movies - Giving False Hope?; Back-to-School is Parents' Chance to Create New Habits; Where and With Whom Should Kids Do Homework?

By Kenny Bodanis @KennyBodanis

On this month's "Family Matters" segment of the Ric & Suzanne Show on CJAD 800AM, we talk about:

  • An article in The Atlantic claims that children's movies are giving young viewers a false sense of self-esteem by selling them in the idea that they can accomplish anything. Is that so bad?
  • Perhaps parents should use September 1st, and not January 1st, as the date on which they can take stock of their own lives. Is back-to-school the perfect opportunity for mom and dad to make resolutions?
  • Should kids be left alone to do homework? Where should the family computer be? Should your child keep their smart phone with them overnight?
