There's nobody "bringing it on" but you. I dont see any fighting here, just an informal discussion. If you get off on ripping into people like Rush Limbaugh on crack, by all means, do'nt let me tread on your "freedom of speech". Honestly I think you just enjoy being rude in an anonymous medium that has no consequences.

When we start out as parents, we buy our kids stuff they ask for.  After a while, we see the huge piles of expensive, unused crap that they just HAD TO HAVE piled up in their closets to the point where there's barely room to put clothes in there anymore.

So sometimes we say no.

My wife and I have a great daughter who is almost two years old.  Obviously, being as she is so young, we try to shelter her from harsher television/films.  The main things that we let her watch are Noggin and PBSKids.  

As she gets older though, I do plan on letting her watch a wide variety of television/movies.  When she is about 8 or so, I'll probably start her on some Godzilla/Ray Harryhausen stuff.  When she gets to be 13-14, I'll let her watch most anything in my collection.  I have a feeling that by that age she should be deciding herself what she should/shouldn't watch.

My experiences were quite different as a child.  I was sheltered from most harsh content.  We only had an antenna (as I'm sure most of you did) until I was around 10 when we got cable.  The first real horror film that I saw was The Shining, which I saw right around the same time as getting cable.  I absolutely loved it.  

My parents never really watched horror films.  This led to me being scared to death of Michael Myers, Jason and Freddy as a young kid.  I had never seen any of the films but was scared just from the box art/posters/commercials.  I was a weird little kid.  

As years went by though, my viewing and reading choices eventually went towards the macabre.  I'm sure it was a result of being scared of such things as a young child.  I think it all depends on the child I believe.

    Earth is visited by a GIANT ANTIMATTER SPACE BUZZARD! Gawk at the amazingly bad bird puppet, or chuckle over the silly dialog. This is one of the greatest b-movies ever made.

    Lesson Learned:
    • Osmosis: os·mo·sis (oz-mo'sis, os-) n., 1. When a bird eats something.
