My sister is 9 and this movie made her feel okay with growing up, that it's not as scary as mom's or others make it out to be and that it's okay to feel the way you do as you're growing with these changes. Also that at the end of the day it is most important to be yourself truly and that you're ment to change as a person too when going through changes. I with this movie had been around when I was going through everything so I didn't feel so ashamed and like no one should know what I was going through. Amazing, fun and feel good movie, will watch again.
