overheard

The other day I overheard some young people talking about a movie which they
found emotionally disturbing.....
(a movie I've not seen)

One said she wouldn't like to see it with her mother.....

And I wondered why?

Could that be a clue to the discomfort I've noted in the movie rating system?
"Mrs. Dalloway" with the warning that it contained something "emotional"?

Mrs. Dalloway portrays a man who has been psychologically damaged by the war.
At what age are you too young to understand the truth about war?

Could it be that some people are afraid to so much as discuss these topics?

I mean: Are they afraid to discuss it with their own children?
