Will r rated movies have an effect on a 13 year old girl?
I'm curious what you think. There's someone I know who lets her 13 year old daughter get into R rated movies all the time. In fact, all the 13 year old sees is movies about sex and she just saw Fifty Shades of Grey. She also watched Skins, American Horror Story, Sex and the City and I saw her watch Masters of Sex while I was visiting.
When I ask my friend don't you think she's too young? She just tells me how she doesn't want to dictate what her daughter does and wants her to learn things as they are.
I think that at 13, the mind is a fragile thing and so she could end up thinking sex and drugs are the norm and that sex is the only important thing in life. For her birthday this year (she'll be 14 in 5 months), she gave me a wishlist. On her wishlist, I noticed two books about sex. Both of the titles seemed slightly adult-like and when I went to look them up online, I read the summaries and was shocked.
One of the books is poetry from a young twenty-something who writes all about his sexual encounters with "hookers" and what turns him on/off. I read one of the pages by searching google and in it, there's a list on how a girl should look down there and what they should do to please him sexually.
The other book is about a 16 year old's life and how she is unhappy with being a virgin at 16. I happened to actually find this book at the book store and in the book, the girl states how she wants breast implants, how she does weed to feel better, etc.
These are on the girl's wishlist. Is this a normal thing? Will this really mess her up and make her think the world is all about sex/being the perfect looking girl?
