There are no laws preventing children from seeing R-rated movies with or without their parents, theaters implement that policy by choice.

Sort of by choice. Often, the municipality won't let you build a movie theater unless you pinky-promise to abide by the rating system.

They rarely enforce it, but if it gets out of hand, the city will start getting on your case about it.
