A Horror–Mad Seven-Year-Old Girl Has Ditched Disney Princesses To Dress Up As Horror Icons (45 Pics)

Eh, I turned out empathetic enough, and being desensitized to horrific violence meant that I'm not affected by gore or the sight of a body etc. (I'm a mortuary student now) and in a way, that's also a good thing, it means I'm unlikely to panic in a scenario where someone is badly injured or if I were to find a body (outside of work ofc) and would likely be able to do the appropriate things you would need to do with more ease than someone who was panicking or afraid, as I would keep a level head instead. xP

From what i remember around 4-6. My nephew has been watching The ring series since he was around 5 and absolutely loves the whole series still till this day! He's in the medical field now and living a normal life. I think the scary thing is having your child believe in Santa Clause , Easter bunny and Jesus. I think that causes more damage to their developing brain. I guess some families are built differently.

My brother has seen a few scary things and while he's afraid when it's dark, like most kids and even some adults, he's fine once it's daytime again. He adjusts well and it hasn't caused him to be violent or desensitized. It's important to teach kids that it's only a movie and it's never okay to do things that will hurt people in real life.

And before you say "Well the Egyptians had Gladiator fights and they had Lions and tigers and Bears (Oh my) well haven't now moved beyond that? Because we knew it was wrong!! Except for those bloody Bullfighters who are basically the lowest of the low.Same as people who engage in c**k-fighting or dog-fighting. Would you take your child to watch those? No! because you know it would be wrong. Little ones DO NOT understand the difference between what is acceptable reality and what is pretend reality. I think my rant has got a bit away from me...
