It's epidemic now that tiny babies (they'll sleep through the whole thing - NOT!) and small kids are being brought into very violent films.
Does anyone remember being taken to a film when they were little that wasn't appropriate? I do. I'm not sure how old I was. It had a snake in it. One of the actors had to suck out the poison (which is no longer recommended, btw), I was quite terrified.
Being so small, I had no understanding of or words for my emotions. I had nightmares for years about that movie and snakes. I wasn't sure why. One day I talked with my Mom about it. She confessed that she and Dad has snuck out to a movie when I was a baby. It was against thier religion to even go to "public" amusements.
So, when I see these babies and small kids or hear them screaming and crying it really upsets me.
Then I also often hear, "Shut up!" and a hitting noise. Poor kids.
