Quote:
"No matter what parents think about the movie [Turning Red], the plot validates the kinds of struggles kids often face during adolescence and provides fodder for meaningful conversations. 'It can speak to many children in many different family circumstances,' Dr. [Charissa ] Cheah said. 'And using it as a point of discussion to cover a whole range of topics—I think that's really useful."
