?????????????

I can't believe someone wrote that this was a good movie for kids!!?? I'm sure having an ex-hooker for a mom would be ideal for any young boy. I can see it now...he and and his friends are sitting around playing Nintendo and drinking Kool-Aid and one of his chums says

"Hey, you remember the time your new Mom showed us her breasts for money?That was great!"

"Yep! That's my Mom she really enjoys exposing herself to preteens for money....anyone want some Cheetos?

As if he didn't have problems enough with dealing with a dead mother?? Now a hooker stepmother??

Alternate ending: Ed Harris was eventually fired for having a wife that exposes herself to schoolkids and had to pimp out Griffith to make the rent.
