Family values

Hey moms and dads! If you have enough money to take the entire family to the violent, R-rated "Edge of Darkness," then you have the financial means to hire a babysitter to watch the youngsters back at home. That way, you could have enjoyed the movie in peace instead of having to occasionally give your rambunctious children a half-assed shush - that is, when you weren't just ignoring them. Instead, you chose to subject your elementary-school-aged kids to the vision of practically every character in the movie -- spoiler alert!! -- getting shot to death. If you can't take the responsibilities of parenthood seriously, please don't become a parent.
