Today, I had to pick my daughter up from pre-school because she repeatedly hit another kid with a stick. Apparently, my parents have been letting her watch violent action movies again. FML

If your child tends towards violence, it wasn't a movie's fault. Try a bit of parenting. Explain to your child why hurting other people in real life is bad. This is a thing parents used to do. Then no amount of moving pictures will suddenly make them violent.

I don’t understand how this is the movies’ faults. Multiple generations grew up on Looney Tunes, and it didn’t raise multiple generations of socio- or psychopaths. Are they the best people? Not necessarily. But they aren’t psychos.

Bring the stick home and let her hit them.. maybe she can beat the stupidity out of them....

I work at a daycare and that's not something we send kids home for, you need a better day care. And also parents who an read age restrictions on movies.

It’s the movies fault because OP is a lazy parent that wants an excuse to hide behind.

Sticks don’t kill people. People kill people lol

This is not an action movie problem, this is a HUGE parenting problem. I watched Yosemite Sam as a child and I haven't killed anyone yet... Obviously ya'll haven't taught your daughter not to harm others because games and reality are not the same thing.
