a lot but I was thinking about age aisroprpateneps. And I think that it (like so many other things) goes back to your child’s temperament and personality and it’ll change on their age too. Some kids might not be phased or even register things that would devastate other kids regardless of their age. Its all about what their personality. I have a niece who is 9 who can’t handle watching animal shows/documentaries because they all die but her little sister who is 3 has no problem watching the sharks eat the seals. Knowing your own child and what their sensitivities are is a more important gauge than anything else.
