Watching reruns of Sex in the city....SJP's son is probably in late teens...I wonder if she regrets some of the scenes in that show.  

I know as a mom...I woud not want my son/daughter to watch me....and the thought of my child getting abuse from classmates about his mom...well i was just wondering if there was regret.

Cannot unring the bell.....

I'm not sure the entertainment industry people view life as many of the rest of us do.

No.  They are mostly very proud of what they do, did, have done it seems to me.  With or without the aid of clothing.

I 'I'm sure that her son knows that his mom is an actor and "Carrie" was just a character that she played.

Doubt that the kid is scarred for life and is in counselling because of "Sex and the City".

What’s wrong with Sex and the City? Nothing there to be ashamed of. I would be proud of it was part of the show. It’s funny and well done. Is this another thread to bash actors? I have some friends who are actors. They are hard working and have friends and families just like everyone else.

A thread to bash actors, bash the show.

SJP has nothing to be ashamed of concerning the show.

I'm pretty sure these kids grow up knowing Mom and Dad play make believe for a living.

Thora Birch, who played Harrison Ford's daughter in Patroit Games and Clear and Present Danger, is the daughter of 2 former adult movie actors. Now that's a case of when you don't want to see/shouldn't see your parents movies.

Many people have done many things that they can't unring a bell for. Illegal, immoral, unethical.  and criminal things. And they actually did these things, they weren't acting. 

I know that Sarah Jessica Parker comes from very humble beginnings. She keeps her children out of the spotlight. I follow her on Instagram, she seems like a lovely person. She actually responds to comments on there, most celebs don't and some have people who do their social media.

She posted condolences to me regarding the deaths of both of my parents. She is an avid book reader. She works some days in her shoe store in NYC, and even delivers purchases to customers herself. From what I know of her I bet she's a very good Mom. Of course that's none of my business anyway.

I concern myself with what public figures actually do and have done. Not with roles they've acted out in movies plays and tv.

I have just starting watching some of the episodes. I never watched in the 90's. I can't say I think it's great acting nor great drama. It has some funny lines and amusing stereotypes.  I think there is a lot of indiscriminate sex in an era that was acutely aware of HIV, with not much attention paid to safe sex on the show. Perhaps one episode mentioned it. There is also hooking up with strangers in bars for a one night stand. Risky behavior. I think of the movie Looking For Mr. Goodbar and what happened at the end of that film. Same thing has happened in real life with victims. Before the bashing of my post occurs, I'll just say that I don't think I missed much not watching in the 90's, but it fills a gap of mindless entertainment if I can't get to sleep.

I think most of the time the kids don't really care to see old stuff.

I know Catherine Bell said recently that her son was curious about JAG and asked to watch it.  She was asking for episodes that would be appropriate for like a 9 year old (lots of murders and her in peril on that show, she was was looking for something that would not freak him out LOL)
