Discussing the topic of students freely entering and exiting theaters even though the movie is labeled 18, Dr. Ho Lam Giang - Psychology & Education expert commented that this is a very worrying situation, there are many issues that need to be considered. .

"In fact, we have to ask the question: Are adults themselves, their parents, aware of what 18-year-old movies are, do they know if their children go to see them, and do they have any advice for their children? If the question is The answer is no, we should also reconsider, this is not just a problem for the child, but for the whole family, even the school," said Dr. Ho Lam Giang.

"This job can help movie theaters increase revenue and profits, but socially, it causes very unpredictable consequences. Therefore, units doing this work need to be conscious about the community as well as professional ethics. I think that the governing agencies, while waiting for theaters to be self-aware, also need to take sanctions if they detect violations of selling tickets to the wrong age group. or required to present identification for movies that prohibit children. Movies, as well as the cinema system, serve the cultural and entertainment needs of the people. Therefore, it is a pity if for these reasons somehow, it becomes a place that causes children to be mentally affected and have cognitive and behavioral distortions later on," the female Doctor said frankly.
