How strict are movie theaters about letting teenagers under 16 watch rated R movies?

I know when I was growing up it really wasn't a big deal we paid we got in. My daughter is trying to see Orphan this weekend she is 14.How strict are movie theaters about letting teenagers under 16 watch rated R movies?
If you bring her there and pay, it's ok.





It simply means it's up to your discretion to judge whether or not it's suitable. They have a general age system with numbers and values to have an idea of what is suitable.





The idea is prevent younger persons to be badly affected by movies.





You said she's your daughter, it means you, mother in law, can buy tickets and legally grant her the permission to go.





Remember, not a paper, not a word; you go there and buy them. They simply cannot tear apart any tickets a person holds legally and they can't tell you who you give them to. You're a client and you can allow anyone you are legally in charge to see anything you want.





Also, they rarely bothers about a 15 y.o. or so buying one. Of course, if she's looking like 12, it migth be more difficult for her goign alone. I hope they have a certain sense of duty and virtue, at least to the point of considering the idea of not letting a kid going for a bloody movie. But, again, they can as well simply don't give a ****.





I'd advise you to go; her friends might appreciate the gesture as well. You always look ';cool'; when you prevent problems by directly giving an access and it prevents dozen of problems. Get her there, buy the tickets for her and get away. This way, she'll feel free and appreciated and on your side you won't be called for your daughter who sneaks into the wrong places.





I know it's always a problem with most teens to have mother nearby and this is why I explain you how she'll probably feel if you do it correctly.How strict are movie theaters about letting teenagers under 16 watch rated R movies?
dis surely helped me alot.

Eh, my movie theaters not strict, the only time I got ID'ed was when I went to see Bruno (because it's really graphic)





If they don't let her buy the ticket, than just go in there real quick and buy it for her.








:]
It depends on the theater and who works there. What me and my friends do is pay for a ticket for a PG or PG13 movie then throw away the stubs and go to the movie we actually want to see. Then if people hassle us we say we threw the stubs away and our parents paid.
Options





Go with her


Have an older friend to take her


Lie about her age


Buy a ticket for a PG movie and then sneak to Orphan











But lying about her age is easier because it's not like they'll do a check on it.
lol I just buy a ticket to another movie and go to the rated r movie
You have to be 17 to BUY a Rated R movie ticket. Someone at least 17 has to buy it for her.
it just depends. a guy i went to school with always worked the late shift and would only charge people from our school like 2 dollars when it really cost 8.
Oh they shouldn't care i saw Bruno a few weeks ago (rated R) with two of my friends we are all 14 they didnt care
They won't let you in unless someone over 18 is at the ticket booth when you buy your ticket
If she has older friends to pay for her she'll be fine.
In CA. They will check ID. If she is not with a parent then she will not be let in! Why would you allow her to see such a bad movie anyway! I wouldn't allow my 14 year old to watch it. Then again she would be allowed to be by her/hisself at that age anyway!

Can teenagers become depressed if they are not in a relationship?

Hi I am going to be a child psychologist and I was wondering in teenagers, can NOT having a boyfriend or girlfriend cause teenagers to become depressed. Thanks, I really appreciate it.Can teenagers become depressed if they are not in a relationship?
No. That in itself would not cause depression, but it might be a 'contributing factor'. People need to feel happy and content on their own, especially teens.Can teenagers become depressed if they are not in a relationship?
when i was younger i heard my friends talking about going out with thier boyfriends and talking to guys they liked.





hmmm. i was sad then because ** i was not the cutest girl but i had a fabulous personality.





i do not think it is relationships that make teens depressed. it is body image, personality, and/or clothes.





and i think that it is what i just mensioned that may cause a lead to depression and also failed relationships.





i think you will make an excellent child psychologist! (hmm. i dont know you, but i think you will do well).








** i a supah rockin cutie pie now!! haha








hope i helped!
TOTALLY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! People want to know that they are loved and want to be loved a lot when you are a teenager (me being one myself and going through this) Teenagers will get super desperate when they really want a boy friend or girl friend. I know that me and a lot of my friends are feeling that way. Like you are so ready and you just want to have one SO bad! I think that it does depress people because you see other people at the school with each other and are all happy and stuff and then you are like alone...with friends...but no one that you love THAT way. I find myself getting depressed some times... :(





Hope that helps :)
Yes its possible. They watch tv and watch other teens and notice how lonely they are. everyone (yes everyone, even if you do not like to admit it) wants a partner. A person to tell everything to and spend time with. So yeah they can be depressed over not having a relationship with another person.
Yes, because probably the case is [with mostly girls] that the teenager will eventually begin to feel lonely.


Also, in high school, you see couples almost everywhere.


Well, in mine you do.


So it can make one feel lonely and they want that other person that they can go to for a smile or just to have a pleasant time to make them feel happy, valued, and wanted.
Yes, it's possible.


Because every teen wants love, and it drives them really crazy if they don't have it.
Of course they can, look at this forum for a few minutes and you'll have enough information for a case study
yes b/c they see others around them w someone and it could make them feel lonely and can cause major depression
Yes they can. I know I struggled greatly and still do for that matter.

What are the best audio books for teenagers?

IWhat are the best audio books for teenagers?
that is a how long is a piece of string question -





what do you mean by best? those that they will enjoy most or those that will help their education most?





boys or girls or both?





personally i wouldn't recommend an audio book to anyone unless they were unable to read a paper version for some reason. you get much more out of a book by reading it yourself not least because it is much easier to flick back to refresh your memory about something in a paper book that it is on audio

Hummer H2. It's strong.What kind of cars are safe for teenagers?
of definately a safe car. its so safe that you have no money to pay for gas so that it sits on your driveway. no way for your daughter to get into accidents

a 2000 or up ford Taurus. they are good on fuel and were rated very high in the government crash tests
no car is safe for a teen.
buy any car, make her pay for the insurance.
Well anything that has a good or high safety rating. You can talk to the dealer about that. Either way if you know your daughter is a safe driver, you have almost nothing to worry about.
I don't know anything about the best type car for your purposes, but I would like to point you to a very good article I enjoyed, that you might like to share with your daughter ...

There are many more on the same Web site,

i suggest to get her formula 1.. heheheheh
A Honda is one of your safest bets. They now have six airbags in each car. The new civic has fivestar front driver, passenger and five star side passenger and driver crash test ratings. They are very safe cars and should last you over 200,000 miles
sumthen that she can easily drive, so not sum oversized-not needed SUV or truck. minimum 2-airbags, ABS and prehaps traction control. sumthen like a civic, camry(as un-cool as they are) focus or the like would b a good choice.


make sure she does pay insurance herself (this could help her 2 b more careful with her driving+parking) and makes sure she has no trouble's parking the car...major issue with teenage chicks...they cant park(well usually from my experiance).





oh make sure its in a nice colour or all she will do is complain until u get a new car.

What career would enable me to counsel teenagers and have an impact on their lives?

I want to give back to the youth who have had a rough life almost like a summer camp counselor only full time. I love making an impact on teens and i want it to be my career. What category of careers does this description fall under?What career would enable me to counsel teenagers and have an impact on their lives?
Counselor! You have it in your answer. Perhaps you should be a child psychologist, especially if you are wanting to impact a child's (teen's) life. Maybe a psychiatrist? Did you want to be able to prescribe drugs? I think maybe you should think specifically on what you'd like to do and how you'd best help, such as talking to them, or caring for them as a nurse, or even taking them in to live with you and being a foster parent. I don't know where you live, but where I'm at now there's a bunch of places where kids go for a variety of reasons, such as drugs, promiscuity, truancy, or just for a respite. These places hire people to facilitate their return home, such as:





Houseparents: overseeing some kids in a household setting on an extended, live in basis


Care Worker (or something similar): overseeing them in various settings, not live in


Case Worker: being the liaison between the child and basically the outside world


Psychiatrist/psychologist: monitor the mental health of the kids





There are lots more and the best way to find out where you could get started may be at your local YMCA, where they should have a list of safe places for kids to play, be sheltered, or get help. Then you could maybe volunteer/apply for a position at one of these places.





However you do it, I commend you for wanting to do such a selfless thing. Please write and update once you've started working with kids and tell us how it's going.

What are some good books for girl teenagers?

My two friends and I are beginning to read books together and then discuss them, it's tons of fun, but we need some suggestions for more books. We've already read Angus, Thongs, and Full Frontal Snogging and we'd like more books like that or better!What are some good books for girl teenagers?
Wuthering Heights - Emily Bronte


Jane Eyre - Charlotte Bronte


Pride and Prejudice - Jane AustenWhat are some good books for girl teenagers?
On The Other Side,


Chasing Vermeer,


The Wright III,


Frindle,


Number The Stars.
Any book by Sarah Dessen, she is a great writer. Some of her best books are ';Dreamland,'; and ';The Truth About Forever.';
The best book I can think of is called 'The Sight' by David Clement-Davies. It's about a wolf pack and their adventure to escape an evil wolf. (I won't completely ruin it for you.)





But if you are not interested in wolves then you might want to try the book 'Ender's Game' by Orson Scott Card. This book it a science fiction one. Has a great plot and lots of interesting turns to talk about with your friends! And if you end up liking it then it has a few sequels to it.





Hope I helped you some!

i highly suggest James Patterson's maximum ride angel experiment its a series.its about 5 kids who are 98%human and 2%bird .they can fly they have people that are chasing them who are part wolf and human.there are3 or 4 in the series. its real good
twlight by stephenie meyer and new moon and eclipse(coming out) very romantic but full of actiom

How to make a poster appeal to teenagers?

I have a test, which involves creating a poster which appeals to teenagers. How to make a poster appeal to teenagers?
Put naked people on it and make the background very urban and gritty looking with lots of neon and contrasting colors and bold stripes and a altogether symbolic vision!How to make a poster appeal to teenagers?
I was in Advertising for a while, try bright colors, bold random stuff that makes it stand out. like bright colored splatter background and dark silhouettes and such. really the concept depends on your market (teenagers) and what you're trying to get them to go to..good luck =]
put the jonas brothers on it :D.
