Kids aren't going to be harmed by full nudity or moderate violence either.

These ratings were never about protecting kids. They're about foolish parents being able to indulge their neuroses.

There’s truth to this. The amount of parents that brought their kids to see Deadpool (that was appropriately rated R)…OMG, there might as well not be a rating system at all. The Goonies had plenty of slapstick and inappropriate humor, and was rated PG. I would say The Golden Child has the same level of vulgarity, but was rated PG-13.
