Grrrrrrr!

I have just finished a complaint to the cinema we went to see Shrek at last week. For the last week Ol has cried every night when he has goen to bed. So we have tried to find out what is wrong but he just did not want to talk about it. So at 3.00am he started screaming because there was a man in his room who was going to take him away.................

.....now just before Shrek there was a plea to find Madeline. Now don't get me wrong, I am all for finding that poor little girl and hope and pray that they do. But this plea was well a bit too graphic tbh! The cinema was PACKED with kids and the plea went into great detail about how she was taken away from her mummy and daddy while she slept in her bed. All the kids looked terrified!

So all week he has worried about this and I have now sat him down and tried to explain why and how all this happened. We have already had the do not talk to strangers etc and he understands all that - what has upset him is the thought of them coming in to his room while he sleeps ;o(

Just did not expect to have this conversation at 5 years old!!
