6 year olds banned after 6pm
At my local theater, there is a big sign up that states" "Starting Oct 24, children under 6 will not be allowed into R rated movies after 6pm"
Looks like one theater is taking care of the annoying kids in movies they shouldn't be seeing anyways.

In the city I used to live in, no children or juniors were allowed in for the last showing of the night for R-rated movies.
Maybe he meant Fondling Nemo.

I would support this.
I've had far more trouble with bastard teens than 6 year olds. I don't even bother trying to go to the movies on Friday and Saturday nights when my local theaters attract them the most.

Meanwhile, the Kerasotes Theatres chain based in Illinois recently changed its policy to allow children into R-rated movies unsupervised as long as the parents give their OK. The theater explains to the parents that their children are expected to behave, but that's it.
Yeesh.

No one under 6 without legal guardian present for PG rated movies.
No one under 13 without a legal guardian present for PG-13 movies.
No one under 17 without legal guardian present for R rated movies.
The fact that parents think movie theaters = day care, and they can just leave a kid there is ****ing annoying.

Do they give me an indication of how noisy they'll be in the theater. Yes.
I went to see Bend it Like Beckham and the theater was full of teenaged soccer fans with no adult supervision. They were running up and down the aisles and tossing a ball around in the auditorium AND the lobby. We decided to go see Seabiscuit. No teens and it was quiet.

My local chain's policy is no one under 10 in an R-rated movie ever. They aren't afraid to kick ass and there are always cop around so there is never a bad showing of anything.
