I just noticed that the highly praised movie "Winged Migration" will
be aired on STARZ this Saturday, Dec 13 at 8:45 as well as five other
times (once more Sat then twice each on Tues and Wed of the following
week). I've scheduled it to record and thought a number of others
might appreciate knowing of this.


Someone at work suggested not letting the kids watch it because there
is a bad plane crash in the begining. Is this true? My kids love to
ride in the plane, I don't want to scare them.


There was no crash in the screen version that I saw. There were
scenes of humans hunting birds, and birds eating other birds however.

For the time that your kids do hear of an airplane crash, think of all
the times that they hear of car crashes and still ride in the car.
Not sure if it helps, but comparison is one way to understand and
manage the perception of risk.
