Mo is 12 and has been invited to the cinema by someone in the year above. Mo really likes them and their families are friends. Should she go?

Mo arrives at the cinema and is very impressed to find her cinema ticket, popcorn and drink already bought and paid for. Do you think Mo’s date is being thoughtful and respectful?

When Mo looks at the screen number, she realises that it’s a zombie move and a 15 certificate. Mo hates horror movies because she gets nightmares. Her date loves horror and has been excited to see the film for ages. What could she do?
