DS goes to a very well regarded catholic school.We do not allow DS to watch 15/18+ movies with violence/se_ scenes. Yesterday DS came home upset stating that all his class are calling him a baby because he is not allowed to watch those movies. We have let him watch movies after deleting certain scenes, just found out that they have been discussing the scenes and DS is now upset we have deleted certain scenes that all his friends are talking about. Know that this is peer pressure , but I am surprised to know all the parents (including the best behaved and conservative families) let them watch these movies. DS is feeling left out because he cannot join in the conversation about movies and upset that we are super strict. we have tried to explain the rationale, but it is not being heard. What do you parents do on this subject ?
