CATHOLICMOM.COM: 'Butter': An Eye-Opening Movie for Parents
February 25, 2022
"The movie BUTTER, releasing today in theaters, probably wasn't intended for an audience of parents. But after viewing this movie along with my 21-year-old neighbor (whom I've known since she was born and whose opinion I trust) I concluded, and she agreed, that parents are the ones who need to watch it. Teens hear a lot about suicide prevention and mental health issues through their schools, but the pandemic has severely reduced parents' opportunities to come together with other parents and share resources.
Parental isolation—from their own teenager—is a major contributing factor to Butter's predicament. And I believe that parental isolation from other parents doesn't serve us or our children, as well. "
