We're showing a situation that these kids are caught in and being forced to do but the violence is not glorified. Most of the kids in there are not wanting to be doing it.

No kids should see that kind of violence where Batman is killing as many people as the bad guys.

Well, our children do know what this industry is about, but they have a good grip on who they are.

They are always very lax about putting restrictions on violence for children's movies, which I think is much more harrowing than sexuality for children.

I'm very careful about how I portray violence in my films. I do believe that violence, especially violent video games, are not a good thing for young kids.

My mind boggles at the amount of violence inflicted upon children in today's society.

We don't care really about children as a society and television reflects that indifference to children as human beings.

Hollywood has an obligation to watch what they put out there. Kids do imitate what they see - good or bad.

We're seeing this disintegration of the family movie into these blockbuster things that kids should not be exposed to with explosions, carnage and violence.

Kids really have a lot more power than they think they have. They have the power to change the world. And they should know it.
