I have two young girls in my extended family (10 & 7), and I have been gifting / recommending older content (The Neverending Story, Labyrinth, Road to Avonlea, and the likes) to them to keep away the worst of modern entertainment.
It seems though that all of their class mates have been watching Wednesday, and the FOMO is powerful with them, so now they want to watch it too.
They would be better off watching the two 90s movies, but even that might be too early at this age.
Anybody who has seen the show, how strongly would you recommend against it? Not just in general (might be too scary for them), but because of the current year bullshit.
Treating the symptom is not as effective as treating the problem. And the problem is FOMO.
Gotta work with their parents to instill an idea that their personal tastes are more important than the group's tastes. But they're girls and wired for social acceptance, so it's not only going to be difficult, but at their ages, probably all but impossible now.
That has been a talking point of their dad, who is pretty based, but frankly, with what I see of them it might be impossible with girls in general.
