Not appropriate for elem or preK kids

This movie was all about injustice and how kids deal (or don't deal) with it. There is little parental involvement in problem solving as the story portrays middle school as being socially challenging, to say the least, for the two main characters. I think the story is a misrepresentation of middle school life for the average middle schooler today. The story line is too harsh on all fronts. The mean big brother, the jerk gym teacher, the unobservant safety patrol teacher/mentor, the lead character's pre-occupied parents.
I would recommend that all children younger than 10 stay home. The social injustices may feel traumatic and confusing for them. They did for my two 5 yr olds boys and my almost 8 year old boy. I wished I'd not taken them!
No, I do not recommend this movie.
