Studio Ghibli makes better movies than Disney. Ghibli films tackle much more mature themes such as environmentalism, poverty, insecurities, and war but do so through complex storytelling.

Disney movies can be entertaining for all ages but lack depth and realism that Studio Ghibli captures.

Minecraft is a great game for children to play that introduces them to the gaming world while also almost entirely promoting creativity, allowing for complete creative freedom, problem solving, and if a child plays with friends, teamwork and cooperation.

Parents, movies, books, and TV shows all influence how a child views the world or deals with their negative emotions.

Heathers is not a good movie or musical.
Piercings, tattoos, or dyed hair should not affect a person’s ability to get a job. Facial and body piercings, tattoos, and dyed hair are simply personal expressions and do not tell what kind of person someone is.
Teachers should be paid just as much if not more than professional sport players.
