Parents get a grip of yourselves, protect your children
DEAR EDITOR,
Last weekend, I went with my friends to Caribbean Cinemas in the Giftland Mall to watch the newly released Hustlers movie. I was so uncomfortable, there were children in there. In case you and this newspaper’s readers are unaware, Hustlers is an R-Rated film that chronicles the wild and often illegal exploits of a girl-gang of strippers.
It is absolutely appalling that Caribbean Cinemas continues to allow this nonsense to carry on, despite persons commenting on it in the past. On their own social media page for example, if a film is not rated for children, then children should not be in there! Period! Most scenes had nudity and persons imbibing in alcohol (of course). But also, showed persons snorting cocaine, and/or showed these strippers drugging and taking advantage of sometimes unconscious men.
The adult human form can be fascinating and sexy and grown folks can watch whatever they wish, but children do not need to watch strippers in action on a pole at 9 PM on a Sunday night. They simply do not.
Parents get a grip of yourselves; protect your children. Protect the young and innocent from sex, gratuitous violence and the general ills of society for as long as you can. They were too young and parents that is your responsibility, even if Caribbean Cinemas only cares about filling seats and making money.
Respectfully,
Movie Fan
