I went to see WallE with my 20 year old son. He wanted to see the movie and dragged me along, especially since I was buying. I am not sure that I would have had a problem with this movie if I had had a 3 year old tagging along. I will say this, had the movie been rated PG, 99 out of 100, 999 out of 1000, etc., I doubt that most parents would have paid any attention to the movie rating. Who knows?

Aren’t wild storms, death and distruction what your soon-to-be public school student will receive in her “earth sciences” classes? The *preaching* of your evil-doing that will destroy her future is what’s really scary. Hope you’re ready for that.

You must be joking, right? I took my two sons (ages 7 & to see WALL-E on opening night - the movie was a wonderful, innocent and refreshing story about love and compassion. I thought it was amazing how the writers of the movie made you feel empathy and compassion for an animated robot!! Maybe our children need more stories about love, compassion and “doing the right thing”

You probably let your daughter watch crap like “Dora the Explorer” - which is a propaganda cartoon brainwashing our children into believing that illegal immigration is good, and that we should all speak Spanish. Or, Teletubbies - the “mushroom/LSD” inspired show about 4 beings who can’t speak a word of english and are obsessed with “tubby toast”.

Get a life and let your daughter be frightened once in a while - it will teach her that the world isn’t all peaches and cream, and that bad things can happen.

Finally, if you watched WALL-E until the end and didn’t get choked up and have to hold back some tears…YOU frighten me!!!

Tell me ’bout it!!

I remember my little cousing crying when he saw that Fifel the mouse movie. At one point fifel is seperated from his family - kid started crying.

From now on the makers of kid’s movies are going to call your kid to let her judge the movies. Instead of G, PG, R…it will be based on tears. No tears means it’s good for everyone. The more tears, the higher the age.

Puh-leaze…if everything has to be som homogenized that every kid has to react the same exact way to every movie that is geared toward the, you’d be watching the same movie all the time.

Stay home, put on some more Barney tapes and let the rest of the 3 year olds have some fun. My 3 year old enjoyed the movie immensely but was somewhat irritated with the bawling kid sitting behind us. Oops

With all do respect, Pixar is not responsible for the ratings of its movies. You should be looking into the actions of the MPAA if you have qualms with the current system.

I find it somewhat ironic that on a blog where I so frequently read about how parents are uninvolved and careless with their children’s upbringing nowadays, this parent is being scorned for paying attention to her frightened three year old and trying to inform other caring parents about the content of the movie so they can make an informed decision about whether to take their own child to see it. Kudos to you, Ms. Kennedy, for parenting your child.

Bamabis mom. Thats all you have to say. Thats the pinnacle of “terror” for kids. A big bad evil gun shotting the lovable characters mom. I assume the letter writer would have preferred Bambi to hold an R rating. I watched it when I was young and I’m just fine now. I think well adjusted kids can handle a little animated storm and a laser gun.

This poor womans kid is gonna get the snot beat out of him in school.
