I wouldn't let my kids watch it at all, PERIOD. No matter if it was on at one in the afternoon or three in the morning. I would know exactly what my children watch, when they watch it. The V-chip has been around for almost ten years, it's no ones fault but the parents if they don't utilize it and end up exposing their children to "objectionable" material. It's getting really boring listening to parents complain about television when it's obvious that if they were doing their jobs in keeping their children form watching such things, there would be no problem.

It all depends on the parent and the child. I grew up watching horror movies and TV shows like Melrose Place, Picket Fences, and American Gothic, yet I turned out perfectly fine. I don't solicit hookers or rape women, nor I do murder people. But, I've always thought that parents should be up-front with their children about things like sex and violence, not hide them from it. People should breed maturity in their children.
