| How We Determine Our Grades | |
After watching a movie with your children or students, we encourage parents and teachers to look for education opportunities to teach with movies. Here are a few discussion topics that can help with lesson plans or teaching in the home.
Why do you think the children in this movie developed behavioral problems after coming through this traumatic event? What other side effects can stress have? What can be done to overcome these problems?
Do you feel the children respond predictably or unpredictably to their father’s romantic intentions? Why?
Tom tries to explain the circle of life to his grieving child to help him come to terms with the death of his mother. What council or comfort would you give to someone facing the loss of a loved one?

Donna Gustafson has been involved with her husband Rod's work since the
