this re-ignites my fantasy to write a blog (a hem, substack whatever) where my husband and I review the same movies our kids make us watch over and over and over. "Frozen 2, 48th time: today I noticed what a jerk the second rock troll is being during the second. Am i the only one seeing this?!" etc etc etc.
The good news is your kids are watching movies! Mine are hooked on these “creator families” who dress up as characters and make dumb videos for YouTube. It’s embarrassing!
This just opened a floodgate—every movie of that era is about absentee parents! Don’t Tell Mom the Babysitter’s Dead, Home Alone, Ferris Bueller (kinda). I wonder what quintessential movie about our generation of WFH/helicopter parents will be made (it will be so boring.)

We just watched Honey I Shrunk the Kids and I had forgotten that the whole movie wouldn’t work if they had cellphones or responsible parents.
Both sets of parents were just like “those darn kids have been missing for 6 hours!! How dare they mess up our fishing trip!”
And that was a Disney movie!!
We’re doing great.
