I've had exactly the same thing happen! Violence okay - body parts, not okay! It's still up to the parents...

Long ago, when I was a circulation clerk, a child about 8 yrs old approached 
the desk with a video, accompanied by mom and dad.  A coworker, attempting 
to be helpful, quietly told the parents that she had seen the movie and that 
it contained graphic, bloody violence.  The parents replied, "As long as 
nobody's naked we don't care."  Then they made it clear that they were not 
happy about the uninvited input.

Greg, what would you have said next?
