HEY OTHER PARENTS - S02E018: Movies That Shaped Our Childhoods!

🎙️ In This Episode:

This week, we’re diving into the movies that shaped our childhoods—whether they were magical, terrifying, or just completely inappropriate for kids. We’ll explore the classics we rented from the library, the ones we caught on primetime TV with all the curse words dubbed over, and the films our parents probably shouldn’t have let us watch. Plus, we’ll see if the movies we loved as kids still hold up when we show them to our own children!

What We Cover:

😂 Hits and Misses With Our Kids:

-Which of our childhood favorites our kids actually liked—and which ones flopped.
