Hey! I'm Caitlin and in a few days I'll be a freshman in high school. I love giving advice and I feel that I am good at it. I've been through a lot of stuff, divorce, moving, having my best friend move, a family member with cancer, and love (including being cheated on). So please don't hesitate to ask. I mean sitting there staring at the computer screen isn't going to do anything now is it?

My mom actually needs help with this one, but I'll explain.
Last night my neighbors who are around my age (I'm 14) came over. My mom rented 3 movies (even though we really couldn't afford it) but being the whiners they are, they didn't want to see any of them, so we let them bring their own movie over, for my and my 11-year old bro to watch with them. They chose Scary Movie and I have no idea why their mom let me! It was really inappropriate for my brother, who's going in to sixth grade. I mean, people were giving each other bjs and hjs, a girl got stuck to the ceiling by cum, etc. It was really digusting. The worst part is that they thought it was hilarious, Nick (older one, around my age) in particular kept going, "Noelle, come here" (my mom's name) at the grossest parts. Their mom is normally a pretty good mom but I just don't understand how on earth she could think it was appropriate for my brother. Obviously her boys were too immature for it too. My mom is going to call their Mom, Denise, whom we've been friends with for many years. Denise can get offended and mad very easily, so what should my mom say? And what should she say next time the boys want to bring over a movie?
Sorry about the long question. I rate! (link)

My moms best friend is in the same situation that your mom is in a lot. Your mom simply needs to say something like this.
Denise, a couple of nights ago your boys brought over scary movie. I don't want my kids watching movies like this. No offence or anything, you can do whatever you want with your kids but with mine, I'd appreciate if you'd tell me next time or give me the heads up. After all it was rated PG-13 too.
If your mom's friend takes offence to it, thats her problem. Your mom needs to express her feelings because the problem isn't going to go away by itself, it will only get worse.
Hope that helped, feel free to ask more question on my column or to IM me. Caitlin
