I don't mind when children die in a horror movie as long as it's important to the story, but I'm not the kind of person who enjoys seeing children get killed just for fun. If you're going to kill a child character in a horror movie then it should be disturbing and horrifying not tasteless. Like for example when a little kid becomes a zombie in a movie like Night of the Living Dead, that kind of thing serves to remind the audience of just how helpless kids are in a zombie apocalypse (and I can't think of any zombie movies I know of where a kid actually lives). But stuff like Nightmare on Elm Street is stupid to me because Freddy is portrayed as being funny, witty, and more likable than the children he murders! ...even if they are annoying teenagers played by 20 something year old actors.
