movies in which children are better at living life and understanding the world than their dimwitted/cold/socially stunted/career-driven/broken parents/teachers. Often, this results in the parents learning a lesson from the children:
- Dan in Real Life
- Parent Trap
- Freaky Friday
- In America
- The Squid & The Whale (at least at the end of the movie)
- Smart People
- Racing Stripes
- Pleasantville
- The Incredibles
- Nanny McPhee
- Breakfast Club
