Bollywood and kids

[NJMasti]

@Niksik

There are many parents out there that cannot resist watching such movies and justify it by saying that this is all they have for entertainment…or that it will teach our kids our language and culture

sorry I don’t have time to read ALL of the above posts -

here’s what I think of Bollywood and kids

I agree Niksik - I do let my kids listen to Bollywood songs for learning language - and I TRANSLATE the word for them so they understand the language. I know I take off the maturity and add it in a kiddie way! lol

I think Hollywood stuff is FAR MORE DECENT when it comes to kids stuff. They have parental controls and rating systems so kids can watch. They are FULLY dressed. Their MIDRIFF NEVER shows - while in Bollywood - they flash naked women so often - that it’s embarrassing.

I like the fact that for “hollywood” stuff - you have the control for viewing. For Bollywood - you just have to let your kids pop their eyes out in every scene.

For kids I prefer “Hollywood” shows.

But as I said I let them listen to Indian music and they love it just as much! For us it’s definitely about learning and enjoying the language. (They don’t watch it, just listen).
