The Boost, no disrespect to you, but I don't believe you when you say you won't allow your kids to see "crap." This is the exact sort of thing I am talking about. You let your kids see crap every day, probably. If they watch kids films or kids TV shows, they will mostly see crap, because most of them are dumb. And that's okay.

My kids 20 months old. He doesn't see anything except Elmo. I never said I'm going to somehow shield him from all crap in the world. But during the age he's basically provided entertainment by me (probably until early grade-school) I won't be providing him the PT. As I said in my first post in this thread, he can see them when he's old enough to watch them at a friends house.

But tooling a Yoda toy to remove the lightsaber is cool. Even seeing the PT Yoda's a cooler toy without it.

And why is no one jumping to defend "Darkman 3: Die Darkman Die"?

Well, technically you never said anything about shielding your kids from the PT, and no one else said anything about having to actively introduce your kids to the PT, so can we settle this side of the argument, yea?

Your kid certainly doesn't need to see Jar Jar Binks to have a normal development, especially if he's not interested in seeing those movies himself or asking you to rent it (and would he really before entering grade school? that's like what, at age 6? how's that in your country?) - thing is, what's really important, DON'T SHOW HIM ESB. LOL
