@SaintsLeader1 you must have lived in a bubble when you grew up. Unfortunately, not every family in America is structured the same way. A two-parent household may not exist for some so "controlling" what kids watch isn't always that easy. Yes, some people grow up sheltered and protected from violence depicted in media. We weren't trying to prove anything but shed light on how accessible violence has become through tv, video games, the internet and media. Context, people.

I love how you guys show the worst when trying to prove how violence has acted upon an individual. Most of the movies that I saw were rated R, R meaning ages 17 or older. So literally what you just tried to prove was that the parents are allowing their children to watch these movies, and not being responsible about it.
People complain about the violent acts being shown on the media, which is understandible,you can't control the media, but you can control what your kids watch. Ratings people.
