    Game of Thrones. I stopped watching when Aquaman raped the blonde.

    Then I started reading the books. the rape scene was written slightly different, so…whatever. Then I got to the part where the brother/sister threw the boy out the window. Done. Violence against kids is my line.

      spoilers but if you had stuck around you get to see the guy who pushed him out the window get his comeuppance. he spends the next season as a prisoner of war and gets his sword hand cut off. it changes him almost completely

      but then again thats not the only scene in the series with violence against kids so maybe it was best to stop there

          Oh, tv show is hot garbage this season rip to everyone suffering through that :/.

          Question for you, isn’t there violence against children in the Witcher books? In the games, Geralt doesn’t enact any violence against children himself but he definitely comes across people that have harmed children. I know the games are their own thing, but I’d assume that there would be similar situations in the books that created that bleak universe.

          Is it just not as explicit as the GoT stuff?

          Sorry just kind of curious is all.
