I recently attended the new "Lord of the Rings — The Two Towers" movie. I don't remember much of it because I found myself constantly looking down and shutting my eyes at the violence being portrayed. I thought the movie should have received a rating of R. I got a sick feeling when I remembered my mother had let my two little brothers attend.

When the lights went up, I noticed 5-year-olds, 7-year-olds — even children as young as 3 at the movie with their parents. I couldn't imagine how it affected them. I am an adult and unable to handle such violence and abuse.

I was upset at the parents who happily walked out talking about what a good movie it was. I hope they don't think that they are being responsible parents.
