Nope. Many child versions abridged the originals to make them more "kid-friendly." Can't have Cinderella's stepsisters having their foot sliced to fit into the glass slipper.
Over here you can.
Just like you can have the big bad wolf eat the grandma/piglets/goat-children. Et al.
It's not politically correct to show kids such things.
I take it you mean in the U.S.?

Overprotective if you ask me. As long as you don't go into to gory details and the grandma comes out alive....
