"Don’t blame a parent for following the rules as written."

No, I will blame the parent. Just because something is legal doesn't mean it's a good idea. That's the difference between being a "parent" and being a "mom" or "dad" - exercising wise discretion for the good of your son or daughter. This woman wanted to see this movie and wasn't going to let the inconvenience of a child stop her.

If it was completely inappropriate for kids, the movie should have been rated NC17 not R. If the movie was misrated than why blame the parents for taking their kids to see it? The whole point of the R rating was to give parents the option of deciding whether or not it was good for their children. If the movie was so completely wrong for kids, the the NC17 rating should have been handed out. I can’t blame a parent for exercising an option that was given to them.

It’s still nobody’s business but the parents or Mom and Dad. If people would stay out of parents way, we would be much better off. We have too many busy bodies around which is why the government steps in. It is disgusting!!!!
