Marc Malkin recently interview Eclipse Vampire Peter Facinelli (aka Carlisle Cullen)at the the Milk and Bookies fundraiser that Peter attended with his family.
In the interview Peter talks about Eclipse and Breaking Dawn. He also explains why he has not let his oldest daughter, Fiona, read the whole Twilight Saga -
“It’s a very thick book. I think that two movies would be a good thing for the franchise. I support it, but ultimately it’s up to what Summit decides,” Peter chatted, though he seemed to pick his words very carefully.
“I’m having a great time with the franchise, so if we get to do two more that would be fun.”
“The battle in Eclipse was superfun. We got to do a lot of fight training and choreography, and I’m looking forward to the fans seeing that. They get to see the Cullens in a way they’ve never seen them before,” the star mysterious teased.
Peter was proud to boast of his stunt work too, claiming, “I tried to do as much as I could, or as much as they allowed me to do. If I didn’t go home with a bruise, I didn’t feel like I put in a good day’s work.”
When we brought up the Twilight franchise, Peter told us “Well my 12-year-old has read the first two for sure.” And Jennie quickly chimed in: “But that’s it!”
Do the Facinelli parents think the series is too racy for tweens? Seems so! We asked if the couple thought the much-talked-about fourth book was too naughty, and Jennie, who was only half listening as she cuddled and kissed her youngest daughter Fiona, turned to me and blurted “Yeah!”
“I got to spread them out. Let her get old enough to read the other two. I think I would let her read the third one though when she hits 13 for sure,” Peter confessed.
Peter and Jennie are awesome parents. Kudos to them

2nd??? i love him and think he is great in the films and he has such a cute family
Oh Peter, you have no idea how naughty some Twilight fanfictions are. BD is nothing compared to some of these.
*goes back to read a Domward fic*
Such a cute family!
Top 10? Sweet!
I would lovee to see BD into 2 parts. I agree with Kristen when she said they'd miss out on a lot if it was just 1 movie. But no 3D. And I think that 1 of those parts should be R. It's only fair to us big kids.
But at least TR is R, hale to the yes.
Aww my blondie!!!
I <3 him… such a sweet person and just so lively!! Me <3 you long time blondie!!
LOL @ Jennie… so cute… they're good parents… keeping their girls away from the last two books. I give them kudos for that; it's the right way to go.
Tee hee my blondie w/all girls: Famous ladies man!!
I think the oldest one is Luca.. not Fiona hahah (:
What a great couple! They are sooo cute together and they seem like really good parents! And I agree with Ceci, famous ladies man indeed w/ having all girls! Those girls are gonna give guys a run for their money later in life after having PFach for a dad and Jennie for a mom!!!! Good for them!
I also agree with the parenting part of not letting the kids read all of the books until they are older. I feel that kids grow up too fast these days and it's up to us parents to change that. My kids love the movies and I have read the books to my older son who is 10 1/2 BUT I left out the steamy parts and the parts I didn't think he should know yet. I summarized around them the best I could so as to make the story cohesive, but felt it was best to leave out the particulars. He will know it all too well soon enough and I want him to stay blissfully innocent for a while longer. Just my opinion.
ahahahahah twilight too naughty ???? nnawwww ! *wink*
Wow, they are so cute together <33 Huh, why are both the oldest and youngest girls Fiona? 0_o
I agree with Peter to not let younger kids read the whole Saga YET. I read all four at 13 and Breaking Dawn was a bit too much for me at that age… Peter and Jennie are great parents, they're not letting their kids' heads fill with stuff that takes more maturity! ^^
Hummmm… I read the whole saga at 13. It was fine with my parents if I read it they had an idea what the last one was about, at least my mom did. I think.
I don't think BD is naghty at all. I think Stephenie wrote it very carefully, so kids could read it. Almost in codes I would say. My little sister is 12, and she's read the whole series. It's not like she haven't seen a lot more in movies anyway. But they're trying to be good parents, and thats wonderful of them. I understand them though, I read something like that first time at 11 i think, and I was a bit shocked. But it wasn't a problem, after the first shock. It wasn't like i cared so much at that age. I think it is a bit different now, since tv-series and everything show a bit more than they did before, and people start watching them earlier. To some it might be to early, so I understand why someone not feel it's right. But I don't think 13 is ecspecially young.
