One of the most beautiful lessons to teach your children

Rating: 10/10 (1 July 2015)

A valuable lesson for both children as adults alike. All through the film, Joy is focused on making sure Riley never feels the emotional pain of being sad, especially when Riley is put through her first real time Of emotional turbulence in her young life through her moving across the country and leaving behind everything she loves and now misses desperately. By the end of the movie, Riley ends up in the arms of her mom and dad crying and finally allowing herself to express what she is feeling inside. And at the same time, Joy realizes that in attempting to keep Sadness from influencing Rileys world, she has been denying Riley what she has truly needed...Riley needs to be sad. Children have a hard time comprehending adult world problems and parents need to teach their children that some times if you need to be sad, it's okay to be sad. Sadness is what allows you to enjoy the good times. There can not be joy without sadness. This film had me welling up in my Theater chair more than once and I'm a 24 year old man.
This film teaches one of the most valuable life lessons about how we interact and react to be world around us and that our emotions and experiences are what make us who we are. I don't know that I Can wait for the Blu Ray release to see this movie again. Easily one of Pixars Best!
