Ok, I'm trying to find the name of a movie like this. Its from later 80's maybe early 90's. It had 3 kids that didn't like thier parents(or something like that) and they went to "a parent strip mall" and they each got to chose one family to try living with. In the end they went back to thier origional parents. Thats all I can remember from it and its really bugging me what it was. Thanks
sharethere was one many years ago with drew barrymore called 'irreconcilable differences' in which a legal battle ensues over a very young girl who wants to divorce her parents. not the 'strip mall' one you described, but same idea.
shareI think the movie you are talking about is "Trading Mom" (1994) starring Sissy Spacek.
shareYeah with Anna Chlumsky from My Girl:-) That movie was sorta weird; Sissy Spacek played all the prospective mothers. I specifically remember a part at the end where someone face plants in a pile of horse *beep*
shareI beleive this is it! I won't know for sure until i watch it again, but the summary sounds very much like what I remember! You don't happen to know if anyone was wearing a "I {HEART} NYC" shirt in that movie? Thanks
shareI think the movie you're talking about is Rent a Kid.
