Plus why can't you take kids to an R-Rated movie?

My kids love the Universal Monsters. We watch them together regularly (in fact, it's Friday; it's Monster Night tonight). However, I don't think I'd sit my five-year old son and nine-year old daughter down to watch "An American Werewolf in London" until they were a bit older (no offense to Mr. Baker). But then, I also wouldn't sit them down in front of a mind-numbing teen comedy, either. They'd much prefer Abbott and Costello. image

Is that more to do with the copus nudity?

C'mon gfanikf. There's no more impressionable thing on this planet than the mind of a five year old; they all need to have their imaginations stimulated whether they know it or not, not bludgeoned numb with representations of explicit violence and adult situations. All due respect to your parents, if the films are good enough to last until the kids are of age to see them, great. If not, then pfffttt, oh well ........ image

I admire MonsterDad's restraint, and it already seems to be paying off in Universal Monster-lovin' dividends.

Welcome to the boards, MonsterDad!
