I went to see this movie with my son over the weekend. It was very triggering for him. It's about a boy who communicates differently - he talks to ghosts - and no one can understand how or why he does it, so he is bullied, shunned, and told he has to act normally by his father. My son related to the kid very much and took the story personally.

It was a pretty good movie - some really funny bits - but I wanted to pass this along so it doesn't come as a shock should you decide to see it.

Oh, goodness. My kids wanted to see this. I may have to rethink. Or at least be prepared.

I have not seen it, but I heard Timothy Green has a very sad ending. I don't want to reveal it, but if you have a sensitive child, you might want to do some research before you let your child see it.
