There are different kinds of movie ratings and they were set for a reason. G, PG, PG-13, R, NC-17... and so on

One thing I noticed in this part of the world, unless if the film is like Spartacus, no one gives a shit about any film rating. You would see children as part of those watching films which is clearly not appropriate for their age. E.g music videos, Zee world, bb9ja, Nigerian films, action films, wrestling, boxing and host of others.

Viewing movies with sex, violence, drug abuse, adult themes, and offensive language can have a negative effect on children and adolescents.

Why do people do this?
Don't you know it isn't appropriate?
Parents how do you tackle this in your home?

I agree.

The thing is no one really cares.

Growing up before TV and home entertainment became very easily accessible, we're just happy to have something screening regardless of what it was.

I'm not a parent yet, but I think parents should as much as possible monitor what their kids watch.

Many will think it's impossible, but it is.

With the advent of smart phones and smart TVs you can monitor and restrict what your kids watch.

When I eventually do have kids, I will take it as a full time job along side my full time job, what they see on the screen will be in my focus especially with woke new age ideas being spread through social media, tv shows, video games and almost everything. The best you can do for their nacent mind is to screen what is screened and expose them to only wholesome contents that will build up their young minds untill they're developed enough to handle these other media l.

Even DSTV put Parental control as a feature on their decoder but how many parent has used the option.

May God help us all jare.

U can talk all the necessary precautions, when they get to school, it's another world there.

Their mates brings in phones to Google everything.

i dont think these really matter today...although if you go to the movies its different but in this day and age, mst kids have phones/tablets etc that can easily access such content (even if you block/monitor it).

the minute they leave the house, they can easily view these somehow illegal contents.
