Well said. I'm taking my 15y/o daughter to see Sweeney Todd over
Christmas vacation even though it's rated R. She's already seen the
stage show, and knows that this one will be bloodier -- so it's just
not an issue. When she was younger I would screen films first,
especially if I thought there might be something in it a bit much for
her to handle. It would be nice if more parents did the same.
