Kim Kardashian raises eyebrows after letting her son watch R-rated movie
While everyone agreed that the six-year-old's dance was indeed cute, netizens couldn't help but rebuke Kim Kardashian for seemingly allowing her son to watch ‘Deadpool & Wolverine’, an R-rated movie which contains graphic violence and foul language.
A Reddit user said, “Wait wtf she let a 5 year old watch an R rated movie... Yall downvoting me, have yall watched the Deadpool movies? Do you genuinely think that's appropriate for a kindergartener?”
Another wrote, “My first thought lol my 11 year old still isn’t allowed to watch but I’m a ….”
“Letting a 5 year old watch Deadpool is crazy,” a person stated.
A comment read, “There's literally people being violently killed behind him in the clip.”
An individual, however, mentioned on Reddit, “This is so cute!!! I know people are saying why is psalm being allowed to watch such a violent movie, and I agree, it is violent and gory and not something for a child of his age to watch, but there is always a chance that he’s just watched this part of the movie, and has seen the dance on tiktok or something.”
One more shared, “It's even so violent in the background of the video. My reaction went from awe to oh no, real quick!”
An Instagram user asked, “Is Deadpool v not an R rated movie?” Another said, “Ummm…. Did he see the Rated PG version or something? 🤔.”
One person stated, “How are y’all’s kids watching Deadpool, I’m 29 and I can’t even stomach those graphic scenes.” "You don't let him watch Deadpool, do you?” another comment read.
“Happy bday cute Lil man. But Deadpool and Wolverine are incredibly inappropriate for kids,” a critic said.

But there were some Instagram users who did not seem bothered.
“Happy Birthday!!! ❤️❤️❤️He’s the cutest! Great Dancing!” a fan wrote, while another said, “That’s his dance! Get it Psalmy! 🎂🎂🎂.”
“Happy Birthday son. Great moves and enjoy your special day,” one more added.
A comment read, “Put him in dance classes NEEOWWWW.”
