We’d think that violence would violate those religious norms as well.
One might think that, but then again the history of some religions is riddled with examples of the church as the source of, or inspiration for, violence
Yeah luckily violence in TV and movies is only showing a few punches and bruises and not guns, explosions and death. Literally life changing.
You think it has to do with them learning about sex and then having an unwanted pregnancy? Because they aren't aware of how that stuff works and would learn about it the first time in a movie? You aren't connecting the thought with logic.
Get with the program, ok? I don't WANT my kids watching anything having to do with sex or violence but can only do so much.
What does sex have to with young kids, yep, nothing. While having some ideas about how to protect themselves when it comes to violence, ok. But, both not for kids.
What % of girls will go that route? And that isn't a life changing moment, knowing you just stamped out a life?
Not enough considering how many kids are living below the poverty line. How life changing is it to have a child you can't afford to raise financially or emotionally?
25% of under aged girls when pregnant have an abortion. This number is dropping but mainly because of plan b.
I’m no prude but amazed when I hear from my 8 year old that kids in class saw that movie. No way I let my kids see that.
I just assume that if a kid is able to process what is right and wrong with a violent movie, they could do the same with some nudity. I mean, in your example you are talking about the difference of a year or so.
True. I guess that comes in to play with what we as adults think of nudity and a lot of the time we project what we know onto the kids when in reality they aren't thinking anything sexual about nudity. Usually though, movies with nudity have other content that may not be suitable for children so it just gets lumped in.
Fair point, but I guess that is where I would think that if a kid can handle all the violence, they could handle that, but it's mostly just the parents don't want to deal with it.
Not sure then. I always took it as anecdotal because I've never seen anyone act that way in real life. I've only ever seen it depicted that way in TV and movies. Then with things on the internet as well it feels more like posting how we think we're supposed to as opposed to what we would actually do in real life.
That's totally possible. I doubt Otis is really planning to hang around with a shotgun when his daughter's future prom date shows up. You never know, I'm sure many of the posts were serious and they just see it as being protective (even though they'd never do it for a son). Just the fact that it's universally considered either funny or the expected thing to post in that thread shows the pervasiveness of it though.
