Some lady had her little pre-school aged child at the reaping last night and at one of the scariest parts he started crying and she very loudly announced that they shouldn't allow stuff like that in movies anyway.

Because some parents are idiots, that's why. I remember back in '79 I think it was when Phantasm first came out . Some idiot dad took his kids with him to see the movie and of course they didn't like it. Just because we are parents doesn't mean we are handed brains when they hand us the child too. Plus there seems to be a huge lack of common sense lacking in the younger section of society in general now a days

I know what you're talking about. A few months ago, me and my friend saw Epic Movie (which isn't that good of a movie anyway) and sitting a few rows behind us was some lady that took 3 kids that looked around age 6 or so. I didn't hear any screaming, but my friend and I still didn't like the fact that someone would take a 1st grader to a movie that some 13 year-olds aren't aloud to watch. Why do they do it? I'm not sure, but I have a theory. Maybe they wanted to take the kids to see a G movie that day but it was out of tickets so to make that day not a total loss, they go see a PG-13 movie.

Because these are the parents or people with children that allow their childrens childhood to be taken away from them by exposing them to parts of life that clearly they are not mature enough to handle....one day my aunt called me and said she took her 6,9 and 13 year old to go see Eddie Murphy movie "Norbit" I was like do you people read what the movies are about before you go...just find out a little bit...it does not take much a newspaper, an ad,internet search...but no...Yes I have taken my 6 and 7 year old to the movies to see Narnia,Harry Potter you know kids movies...
Then again some parents want to see movies that are for them and cant find babysitters and are so desperate hope that thier child wont notice the scary movie and creepy dark theatre..maybe go to sleep...When this does not happen parents please pick up your babies and toddlers and walk out dont ruin it for the other movie goers...you can get a refund or choose a more appropriate film...Maybe they should put daycares in the movie theatres..

That is a good question. When I was a kid, my parents never took me to movies I could not handle. Back then (this was the eighties), they had "babysitters". Babysitters were usually teenaged girls who would come to your home and watch over you while your parents were gone for the evening. They usually didn't pay too much attention to you. They just talked on the phone and watched television. If you were still alive and in one piece by the time your parents got home, then they did their job. But this all started to change by the nineties. Incidents with bad babysitters escalated. This all came to a head when Louise Woodward, the worst babysitter of all time, shook a baby to death. After that, people stopped using babysitters and started taking their young children to PG-13 and R-rated movies. Parents figured the psychological damage their children suffered from seeing graphic sex and violence on screen was not as bad as the physical damage that a bad babysitter could inflict.

I know. I was at the movie Hostel and this family with 2 preschoolers and a 10 year old come in and sat down. I went over to them and told them that they should go see another movie with their kids, but they said no. Those kids are going to be pretty screwed up.

Because they are dumb. They know that there is obviously gonna be something bad in it and if they don't want their kids to see it then they should have not taken them to the darn movie in the first place.

that is so stupid. The child should not be there and will never forget the experience. The parents should have got a baby sitter for the sake of the child.!!

Because they stupidly got knocked up before they were ready to take care of a child, so it is for all purspoes a child watching a child.

Same reason parents took their kids to see "300." That irritated me. Kids shouldn't be watching movies like that. Chalk it up to bad parenting.
