    For over fifty years, Judy Blume’s classic and groundbreaking novel Are You There God? It’s Me, Margaret. has impacted generations with its timeless coming of age story, insightful humor, and candid exploration of life’s biggest questions. In Lionsgate’s big-screen adaptation, 11-year-old Margaret (Abby Ryder Fortson) is uprooted from her life in New York City for the suburbs of New Jersey, going through the messy and tumultuous throes of puberty with new friends in a new school. She relies on her mother, Barbara (Rachel McAdams), who is also struggling to adjust to life outside the big city, and her adoring grandmother, Sylvia (Kathy Bates), who isn’t happy they moved away and likes to remind them every chance she gets. The film also stars Benny Safdie (Licorice Pizza, Good Time) and is written for the screen and directed by Kelly Fremon Craig (The Edge of Seventeen), based on the book by Judy Blume, and produced by Gracie Films’ Academy Award® winner James L. Brooks (Best Picture, 1983 - Terms of Endearment), alongside Julie Ansell, Richard Sakai, Kelly Fremon Craig, Judy Blume, Amy Lorraine Brooks, Aldric La’auli Porter, and executive produced by Jonathan McCoy.

    I love it 🥰 especially read vintage Judy Blume book 📚 and movie 🍿 Are There’s God? It’s Me Margaret especially when Margaret’s Mom took shopping 🛍 to buy her a bra especially when the sale clerk, she suggests that Gro- Bra. I remembered Margaret, Nancy, Gretchen and Janie they talk about everyone especially talk about boys, especially each of them talk about when they get their menstrual periods. More importantly especially Margaret’s picks religion for her year long individual project for school 🏫 especially when go to church ⛪️ with her Grandma she’s convinced that she’s Jewish, especially when she went to Jamie church ⛪️ especially other various churches. I felt sorry for Margaret’s especially when her Mom’s parents , they think she’s Christian. I’m glad that her Grandma and her boyfriend comes over especially she’s told them what happened. I’m glad that she’s has to guts especially when she said that she’s doesn’t care about religion anymore especially when she’s said as long as she and her Grandma love each other that’s all that’s matters .

      I have a close friend who reminds me of Margaret in that she was raised with no close religious affiliation because of her mother being Jewish and her father Irish Catholic. She married a Chinese man and had a child with him, so in the long run, she leaned more towards Christianity.

    Me and my mom watch this movie. The only problem is they portrayed Christians as awful people and as a Christian myself we’re not awful. So that was disappointing but besides that it was a good movie.

    The "working mother" concept is just a narcissistic ego-cope; in reality, you're either a mother, or you're working.
    The problem is, there's plenty of non-narcissistic mothers who would rather be at home; they're just forced to work in order to compensate for inflation reducing the purchasing power of the fathers wages (which started in the Jackson era but was dramatically accelerated by Nixon's suspension of Bretton Woods in 71).
    So it's ridiculous to see Rachel McAdams try to say that she's a working mother when her net worth is 25-30 million dollars (minimum). The only reason for her to be working is because she doesn't want to be a mother.

      I lived with my father so he was there for my son before I came home. You are saying women who had to work could never be mothers. That only full time mothers are real mothers. But...when I went home I was a mother to my son for the remaining hours. Plus weekends.
      Being forced to work to support him and me was the only way. So..Don't discount forced-to-work 'working' morhers! Give them credit. Btw..Ben Carson had a 'working' mother who held many jobs. He came out great cause he had a loving logical mom!!!

      @@WandaWojcik Yes. Mothering is a zero sum game. All the attention you gave to work represents attention your children would have otherwise received. This situation is abusive, which creates permanent feelings of abandonment, anxiety, fear and anger in the mindset of the child. The psychology of the child deploys feelings as a way to help it cope with reality. After puberty this emotional complex evolves into a personality disorder, which the child must learn to manage for the rest of its life.
      Humans evolved for the mother to be at, or near, home, at all times. The fathers typically travel away to hunt (during the morning, for coastal populations and during the mid-day, for inland populations). Later this situation evolved, but was still maintained, in the prehistoric transition of the Neolithic (agricultural) revolution (circa 7500 BC) and the industrial revolution (circa 1850 AD). It was only during the 1960's (just 63 years ago) that both parents started to leave the children for the day.
      It's stressful enough for a child to be separated from its father. This stress is obvious because, the younger the child is, the larger their reaction when the father returns. Now, to include the absence of the mother, in this already stressful dynamic, is psychologically irreparable. Note: Grandparent supervision is better than daycare, and daycare is better than absolute neglect, but these situations are still abusive, since children are mentally and spiritually connected to their parents, there is no substitute for the mother and father. There is only one right way.
