As you may or may not know, that there is a film-rating system that can give you a lead of what is suitable or not suitable for viewings in regards to age of moviegoers. For every movie that is rated, it's always written in certain logo or symbol that can be easily found on posters, trailers or even before the movie's started.
This is the Motion Picture Association of America's film rating system for dummies:
Bet you saw that before. Whether or not you understand the meaning, it's oftenly neglected by you nonetheless. Did you think it's for decoration only?? You still take your children to cinema watching an R-rated movie. Or your baby - that's right, your baby - watching a PG-13 movie. You will say that you love movies so much, that you're not willing to put it a rest just because you can't leave your children at home. You will say that you love your children so dearly, that you'd like to take them anywhere with you including to see a violent movie. In some extreme cases, you send the under-age to cinema without guardian, so that you can have your shopping-spree undisturbed for two hours. Can't you send them to the playground instead??? You won't know what your children are doing inside the studio. Throwing popcorn-fights, kicking the back of people's seats, laughing hard, screaming and running up-and-down the aisle, completely an annoyance to the rest of the audience. Oh, and what movie they're watching, say again? You won't remember the title, let alone knowing the rating.
Later if you found that your children had something inside their closets, or if they inhabitted some kind of an attitude imitating whoever or whatever they got from the movies, who would you blame?? Sure, the theater management can implement age-restriction, the personnels can always check some IDs or simply observe the size of mini-audience that go into the studio. Sure, you can always blame the movie importers or producers for releasing such negative movies. But don't count on it. You think those people will listen to your stupid complaints?? Think again!! It's YOU who don't follow the ratings. It's YOU who're taking the children to the cinema. It's YOU who're buying the tickets. YOU are the one who responsible for your own children!! Yeah, it all solely lies on YOU, the parents!!
You do know that there's always a way to enjoy movies. Sneak out of your children's nap time. Leave them with their grannies. Take turn with your spouse if you don't mind going to the cinema alone. As the last resort, you can always buy or rent videos and watch it after your children are secured in their bedroom at night.
If you still don't give a damn, well, there is one more rating-system that will apply perfectly on you.
