The first time I took my daughter to the cinema she was 6 and the movie was the cartoon “ Bambi”. Everything was going just fine until Bambi’s mother was shot and killed. My daughter was frightened and asked to go home in the middle of the movie. Luckily my later choices of movies worked well and she likes movies as much as I do.
My point is: are cartoons really safe for kids? Or do parents need to pay attention to the type of cartoons kids are watching during their spare time?
Once I sat on the sofa, watching the cartoon with my 8-year-old son. A cartoon character was bleeding (流血的) as if it was an action adult movie. That made me completely shocked.
The next time you take a kid to the movies, maybe a cartoon doesn’t make the best choice, unless you take the time to prescreen(预先筛选) it first. Or you take the risk of exposing(暴露) your child to messages she/he isn’t prepared to get yet.
