I'm not afraid of swimming in lakes or the sea, but that fear is there deep in the subconscious still.
I have to say, considering the effect Jaws had on you, I'm a bit surprised you decided to show it to your 10-year-old daughter. That's not a criticism, by the way. I'm curious though, if you wrestled about it? What was your final reasoning to have her see the movie?

I would have been twelve when i watched it so i thought that my girl,who will be eleven in a couple of weeks so share the same experience.Time have changed though and the kids these days have seen much worse i`m sure.
