All going well, loves his new school and is very settled. In drama class last week, the teacher told them the theme for this half term was something about haunted houses. She then showed them the trailer for The Woman in Black. "My husband and I eye rolled each other as soon as we heard this as we knew what was going to happen....no surprise, he has been unable to sleep alone since seeing this. We are very careful about anything he watches as he has an overactive imagination, is easily scared and sleep is easily disrupted. "My husband is annoyed at having another disturbed night with our son and thinks we should complain to the school. Do you think we should complain and say this is inappropriate to show to 11 and 12-year-olds, or at least parents should have been warned that this was going to be shown? Or would you say it's a non-issue, get over it,){kind=link}
