Default kids and r-rated movies

Please join me in banning small children from R-rated movies. Not only do they disprupt the adults around them, but they should not even be viewing the R-rated material in the first place. Please sign the petition (link pasted below) and tell your friends about it!

In the US, as long as there is a parent with the child, I don't think there's an age restriction. But you have to look at both sides, I don't even watch R rated movies, let alone let my kids, but if the child is with a parent, and has their permision.... do we have a right to tell them they can't let their kid watch that movie?

Right. Moviegoers are usually disturbed by children who are unsupervised and in an inappropriate movie.

When an idiot brings a young child to a movie that is not appropriate for children, even if it is legal, they should be removed by staff if they become disruptive. Children will become disruptive if the movie is inappropriate because they are either bored or hyper stimulated with content they do not fully understand.

Sabrina, it is a great topic, but you need to tell us who the petition is being submitted to, or I will need to remove the link.
