Have you ever rewatched one of your favorite childhood movies only to realize that the life lessons it contains are much more valuable and relatable to you now as an adult? If you have a sister who's still in high school, then it's likely she'll end up experiencing the exact same phenomenon for herself.

But why should you have her wait until college to recognize the significance of the life lessons portrayed by the movies she watches? As her older and more experienced sister, you should instead devote quality time to discussing the ways in which the movies she watches relate to the experiences she may have in the real world.

By doing this, you'll gradually be making your sister more prepared for a majority of the situations she will likely face in adulthood.

The following is a list of titles and descriptions for 4 movies to help get you started:

1. 13 Going on 30

If you have a sister who wants nothing more than to grow up, then this is the perfect movie for the two of you to watch together! It lets you experience life from the perspective of a geeky, 13-year-old girl named Jenna Rink, whose birthday wish to become "30, flirty, and thriving" becomes an instant reality. Unfortunately, while being 30 brings her several perks, Jenna quickly realizes that major relationships she's had throughout her childhood have either been diminished or completely lost. In the process of attempting to piece those relationships back together, Jenna learns the importance of being thankful for her life and the people in it who really matter, rather than the ones who never should have been so important to her in the first place.

2. Legally Blonde

Everything is going well for Elle Woods. She's the president of a sorority, has an excellent sense of fashion, and everyone loves her!...Well, everyone except her totally rude boyfriend, who puts an end to their relationship because he wants to find someone who's just a little less...Blonde.

In an effort to win him back, Elle follows him to Harvard Law School, where she proves to everyone (including herself) that intellect has nothing to do with one's hair color, but rather with the level of determination they have to succeed.

3. The Call

After receiving a phone call from a young girl who's just been kidnapped, police officer Jordan Turner (played by Halle Berry) is determined to save her before it's too late. Throughout their phone conversation, Jordan provides the child with numerous safety tactics in hopes that she will use them to eventually be rescued.

No matter how old she gets, you'll always want to know that your sister has the resources she needs to be safe and protected in every situation she faces. While this movie presents an example of just one of those potential situations, it also provides various street smarts that your sister can utilize if she were to find herself experiencing something similar.

P.S. This GIF is actually based on "Kidnapped," which is a movie that's completely different from this one. Why not consider adding it to your list of movies to watch with your high school sister as well?

4. Wonder Woman

This movie is a MUST-WATCH for any and every girl out there! This is because it does an excellent job of reminding us of the fact that we have the potential to accomplish anything we want, regardless of the expectations that others might have for us simply because of our gender. By the end of this movie, both you and your sister will feel more than empowered and confident with who you are and what you can offer the world.

At your sister's age, it's very likely that she watches movies without actually recognizing their true value in terms of the lessons they provide. As a result, it's very important for your sister to understand how the movies she watches relate to the experiences she may have in the real world. Consider watching and reflecting on the above 4 with her, and see if you can come up with a few more options for the two of you to watch together!
