My oldest brother would censor-clear any movies before we were allowed to watch them but I was too smart for him and when he'd be out, I'd watch the whole movie in about 15-20 minutes (by skipping of course) so that I'd know the story even if not the details. And if he cleared something, I'd pretend I was watching that movie for the first time. And if not cleared, well I already knew the story.
We did use to watch TV shows but no dish network or cable network allowed (even when we'd go to our maternal grandparents, the first thing my mom would do is change the dish direction so no channel comes on TV except for the usual ones which are more clean). Then once we did get cable network (because of some other relatives...long story) we didn't end the contract but kept renewing it.
My mom watched this one scene in Kahiin To Hoga when Kashish's sister does a Home Pregnancy test and I had gone to the Kitchen for something and my sister had gone to another room or something else - the point is we both missed it. When we both came back, TV was switched off and we were told no more KTH. My mum, thereafter, started keeping more track of what we were watching. But we weren't allowed to watch KTH anymore (and anyways by the time we got old enough, KTH had turned into something not like KTH so didn't watch after that).
Now, I can watch anything. Older and more wiser now so I decide what's appropriate or inappropriate for my own viewing (that's why my parents trust me😛)
