10 Family Movies With Mind-Blowingly Questionable Morals
4. Home Alone Where to start with this moral atrocity. Well, we'll start with the obvious. The parenting displayed in this film is frankly disgusting. A small child being left alone for a protracted period of time is treated as high-jinx; a scenario that the family will look back on and chuckle heartily. In reality, it is grounds for social services to intervene and send Kevin off to a foster family. Shocking morals. The most troubling aspect of this film however are the mixed messages it sends to children on how to deal with burglars. In reality, amusing booby traps are no way to deal with an attempted break in, particularly for a child who is stuck home alone. I don't know how many copycat cases have in reality ended in children being tied up in the basement and the crims making off with the finest family silver, but I expect it is in the thousands.
