There is a problem as some imitable violence is in U and PG rated films, or in TV shows, and it isn't the sort of thing which would necessarily occur to someone that it would require an explanation to their child.
My parents were fairly strict about what I watched and did really well about explaining what was real and what wasn't, and its consequences. Yet, for reasons unknown to me, I did something which could have snapped someone's neck because I'd seen it on TV and didn't think about what might have happened until years later.
