What Parents Need to Know
About Balto II: Wolfquest
Parents need to know that this movie contains a fair amount of emotionally draining scenes that may actually hit harder for adults than children. Some eyes may get a little misty watching the adoption process of Balto's cubs -- and the one wide-eyed pup who was consistently passed over and left homeless. There are a few other emotional outbursts (mainly revolving around anger and feelings of displacement) in this otherwise buoyant animated adventure. Familial relationships are explored from a variety of angles.

Families Can Talk About
- Families can talk about some of the self-esteem issues plaguing the principle characters. Does what you are (racially, ethnically, sexually, etc.) necessarily define who you are? And if not, then what does? Such dialogue could provide a positive springboard for discussion toward a greater appreciation of the diversity, and inherent inner connection, between everyone under the sun by starting at the most formative level -- the children.
