Yes, I know we are talking about a girl who was 11 when she saw Schindler's List, a film she also played a role in.  Am I the only person who thinks it is strange that she claims to be traumatized by seeing a work of fiction of which she was a part?I will not say anymore before you start beating me up for being insensitive too.  I just wonder how we as a species have not only survived, but managed to become the dominant species on earth given the manifest weakness of our psyches to trying times and events.

When I see certain movies with child actors, I sometimes think that those kids really should not be watching the movies they were in because it has inappropriate scenes for kids of their age.  I don't think that Schindler's List is a movie that is appropriate for young people, either.  I think the girl in question was only in a few scenes, and so it's understandable she would not have seen the other, more gruesome scenes.  Then again, I am of the belief that children/adolescents should not be subjected to the underbelly of the world - all of man's hatred, violence, sexual perversions, and the like - too soon.  They'll see it soon enough (it is pretty much inevitable) but there's no need to rush it.
