A six year old is reportedly dead and a three-month-old injured at the theater, at 12:30 AM. What is the matter with parents these days? Children should be home in bed instead of listening to special effects blow up cities at that hour.

What is the matter with parents these days?

So it's the parents' fault that these kids were killed and wounded?

My God...the kids' bodies aren't even cold yet, but so many FReepers can't WAIT to pass judgment on people they don't know.

A few years back, my boyfriend went to see The Hills Have Eyes 2. In front of him was a family, with 5 kids, the youngest looked about 4 or so, he thought the oldest was no older than 12. When I saw Doom, the guy behind me had 2 kids with him, an infant and a pre schooler. Meanwhile I wouldn’t let my son watch anything without me seeing it first until recently (he is 17). I would question the wisdom in letting a 6 yr old see this movie without viewing it myself first

That’s your takeaway from this story? Really?

When my sons were young, they did not do sex and violence in entertainment.

When they were teens, I would not allow rap music in the house and we only had one TV and did not have cable. They had to buy a lot of their own stuff, so that meant they had to work and get good grades for sports so did not have time mess around with dark entertainment media much.
