But yesterday he was running around screaming "My father cut off my hand! Ahhhrhghhhh!" With the arm of his shirt over his hand. <img src="http://www.enworld.org/forum/images/smilies/laugh.png"  class="smilie" loading="lazy" alt=":lol:" title="Laughing    :lol:" data-shortname=":lol:" /> So now I am thinking.. maybe he was too young.  Maybe we should have waited a little longer. We pretty much have always let Nathan watch what ever he wanted with the concept that he understood it was not real, which he does. For instance he has watched Stargate with us, as well as Willow, and other movies like that. Lord of the Rings is a bit scary and much, so no on that. And its not like I am letting him watch Kill Bill. So, now, thinking about it.. I wonder is it all too early for him. Should I have waited... <img src="http://www.enworld.org/forum/images/smilies/paranoid.png"  class="smilie" loading="lazy" alt=":uhoh:" title="Paranoid    :uhoh:" data-shortname=":uhoh:" />   He seems to beable to handle the violence as one would a cartoon. He knows its not real, and understands that. But there is very much a underlying theme that Star Wars has of Good and Evil and i wonder if maybe an almost 5 yr old is just not going to get it... Of course I am a paranoid mother. And could just be taking his 'roleplaying' of the movie too seriously but I am interested how old should one start watching shows with little violence, but deep meanings...???</blockquote>
