the only way to determine if it is "appropriate" material for you and your child...is to examine the materials for yourself...not base your opinions on heresay and second hand knowledge...i don't have any children but if i did...i would allow them to see the movie and read the books...on the other hand i have some relatives that at the very mention of me wanting to see the movie (um...i think i'm old enough) reacted as some people have in this thread..."i'm not goin' to see no 'satanic' movie"...a little extreme in thought to me...but that's my opinion...maybe the above links will help parents to better determine whether the books and film are appropriate for their children...

Again, let me repost my original message from July:

I went to a hoax website and found that it is indeed a hoax. Seems it began as a satirical article in "The Onion" and either someone took the satire to be serious, or decided to create a hoax off of it.
The original intent of the post was to see if anyone had heard anything similar. After researching it, HP seems to be ok. My son enjoys reading the books and we all saw the movie. The most important thing is listening to and talking with my children to see what their comprehension of the books & movie is.
