Keeping "Kids in Mind"
What exactly does a PG rating mean? A parent may find that one PG movie may be appropriate for their child while another many not be. Movie ratings and capsules aren't always that useful. That's where Kids-in-Mind comes in. Movies are given three scores: one each for sex and nudity, violence and gore, and profanity. Scores range from 0-10 based on context and quantity (Charlotte's Web - 1.2.1; Eragon - 1.6.1; Madagascar - 1.4.2). Detailed descriptions provide insight and a context for parents to make informed choices about what their children watch.
