Stupid Selfish People Ruining Children

So can anyone answer me this simple question?

WHY DO PEOPLE TAKE THEIR INFANTS AND YOUNG CHILDREN TO VIOLENT MOVIES OR, FOR THAT MATTER, MOVIES AT ALL?????

I will tell you why. They are selfish and stupid. They have no concern for the welfare of their children on an emotional, moral, or physical level.

First off, the young ears of infants probably shouldn't be exposed to those kinds of decibels.
Secondly, the young eyes of young children sitting on their parent's laps shouldn't be exposed to blood splattering a movie screen, or violent sex, or guns and violence. Seriously, has anyone done a study to see what these types of images do to a young kid's brain? Just because you haven't fully developed your cognitive state or your long-term memory, that doesn't mean it has no affect.
Thirdly, you horrible people are ruining the movie going experience for the rest of us. I don't blame the child who begins to scream in terror upon seeing the horse cut into pieces during "The Cell." I don't blame the infant who cries when the machine guns rip through a car door in "Unleashed." And I certainly don't blame the child who continuously cries "Daddy, daddy, daddy, daddy, daddy" ad nauseum because you, daddy, are not paying attention to him.

There is no reason to have a child in a movie theater younger than, say, six years old. That would be reasonable, I think. And if you find that your individual child can't take it, then you should adjust that time frame until they can.

Worst of all, though, you are teaching your children that personal gratification is more important than the needs of others. You don't need to go to the movies, you are just selfish and want to. And you can't find a sitter, so why not plop down your youngin' and expose them to gore. Yeah, that's a good idea.

You people make me angry.

That is all.
