In Advice Corner with Chris Evangelista:

Yerbolat Yeskaliyev (pronounced Your ball) from Bay Area of California writes in: “Hello Peter and the gang.. This is probably 3rd time I feel the need in interacting with slashfilm daily. First 2 times were via itunes review and Twitter. I would like to say it again, I really enjoy both podcasts and becoming somewhat addicted to daily dose =), so thank you all for your very nice work, it is appreciated!!!! I gotta be honest, I am not a website article reader that much, I stick with podcasts. My most favorite is when Daily has full crew with 2 of my faves Chris and HT!! This genius new segment “Life Advice with Chris” is amazing, funny and maybe even helpful, so far it’s a big Maybe :):):) Ok got with that out of the way… Here is my question. I’m an immigrant from a country with a much more relaxed age rating system and I grew up watching hard R even NC-17 rated films such as “shocking asia” at age 12. Hollywood R rated movies were acceptable in our household with no problems. After coming to US I have encountered this new to me system of age restriction and parental control. To me, at the time it didn’t make much sense and I saw it as a dumb thing. However, time went by and I am a father now, although my child is not yet old enough to watch movies. I have drastically changed my views towards parental control and movie age ratings…. I am definitely not going to show my son a Tinto Brass film at age 10, but I also don’t want to be so strict that not watching some R rated films at a young age can turn him into fragile scaredy cat. Where does Chris stand on this subject and how should I proceed with my dilemma? Should I censor the media for my kid and let him decide later in life if he likes that type of entertainment? Or should I take my own experience as an example and allow him to watch whatever interests him (within moral boundaries) of course. Thank you in advance. Keep up good work. Best regards!!
