Line 652:
* Early in ''[[Call of Cthulhu: Dark Corners of the Earth]]'', the player accidentally releases a monster that {{spoiler|kills Tom Waits' daughter}}. It looks at first like the death will only be off-screen and you'll never get to see the body beyond the screaming and tearing sounds, but then you wake up and hear her father crying as you go downstairs....
* Averted HARD in [[Clock Tower (series)|Clock Tower]], where the first game features the 14-15 year old Jennifer and her friends of the same age locked in Barrows Mansion. Depending on how you play the game, all four of them can all die. But no matter what, at least one (be it a friend or Jennifer, the player character) has to die.
* Averted in ''[[Liberal Crime Squad]]'', where the Conservatives will happily force children to work and execute them for any crimes - and the player has the option to free said children to participate in armed terrorism. It is possible to build an entire army out of liberated child workers. The only thing children are exempt from is sex - children under a certain age can't prostitute or seduce [[Non-Player Character|NPCs]].
* Surprisingly averted in [[Sonic Adventure]]. Tikal, who is 14, is trapped in the Master Emerald and dies from unknown causes.
Line 820:
* In ''[[The Batman]],'' a time-controlling villain releases a poison that kills many Gothamites, including Robin. He's unconscious already, so you (and more importantly the censors) are spared the sight of him actually dropping dead, but it does pass over him as it spreads through town. {{spoiler|No, it's not Jason Todd. When the villain's own (adult) son dies, he has a [[My God, What Have I Done?]] moment that lets him push past the limits of how far he can change time, rewinding all the way back to his [[Start of Darkness]] and never becoming a bad guy in the first place.}}
* Near the end of the second ''[[My Little Pony]]'' episode the [[Big Bad]] attempts to kill a filly. Thankfully they save her just in time.
* [[Played for Drama]] in [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Aa782wOrUVM this UNICEF] ''[[Smurfs]]'' short. The only onscreen survivor is a crying baby.
* ''Almost'' averted in the ''[[Tom and Jerry]]'' short ''Heavenly Puss'', where Tom is in line at the pearly gates. One of the entrants in front of him is a ''bag full of recently drowned kittens''. "Almost", in this case, because the episode turns out to be [[All Just a Dream]].
