We just took our kids to a refreshing movie. My friend suggested it because she had seen it and really enjoyed it. So for family night we invited my dad and sue to join us for this movie.
The movie is "Forever Strong" it is about a boy who gets in trouble for drinking and is sent to a juvenile detention center here in Utah, he is a rugby player and now is in his rivals territory playing with them. Watching the changes he goes through and seeing how it is done is so inspiring to want to be better examples to your own kids. It speaks of triumph of the human spirit over human weakness. The part the coach plays is so incredible, if I could parent as well as he coaches I would be awesome.
The best part is there is no language or sex scenes. You walk away feeling so uplifted. My dad loved it so much he sent his college class to see it as homework.
All my kids loved it from Payton who is 7 up to Thatcher who is almost 15. Make sure you stay through the credits it shows pictures of the real Highland team and it is amazing what this coach has done in his career.
