[quote=Anonymous]I love the movie. It's my favorite of the recent Disney crop. However, I could certainly see holding off on it with a young adoptee. It's not that the movie has a "negative depiction of adoption," but that the circumstances could be confusing and troubling for a little kid who is not very sophisticated. A "this is kidnapping, not adoption, sweetie" talk could be hard to understand for a 5 year old. Saying, "maybe not the right movie for this particular kid right now" does not equal "this is a terrible movie and the people who made it are terrible." (I also wouldn't show Frozen to a kid whose parents are about to go on vacation without him/her. That doesn't mean I think Frozen is terrible.) [/quote]
