Just to clarify because I don't know what the system is in Canada: you do know that a movie rated R means any kid can see it when accompanied by an adult, rigt?
In any case, does anybody really think parents are bringing their kids to these movies for anything resembling their own good? This is happening because some parents don't seem to have gotten it through their heads that they aren't single young people any more. They miss the good old days when they could just waltz into Braveheart and have a good time with popcorn and their friends. And so now they come into Black Hawk Down dragging the little tyke with them because they couldn't find anyone to babysit, but oh, they so wanted to see the movie!
Let's not have too much sympathy for parents just because they're raising a kid. I would bet that most of those who bring their kids to inappropriate movies know that they shouldn't be doing it. It's just that they're too selfish to do otherwise.
