Well, it all depends on a parent's point of view. Some parents would view Sesame Street as teaching bad lessons and thus forbid that. Some would say that tv and computer are hazardous to your eyes. Some would say creativity is deadly as it leads to nonconformity and rebellion. Some would say breathing is unhealthy as the air is polluted, meaning the kid is expected to slumber slowly...

You get the point I hope. I don't know your family, so I have no idea what is inappropriate. I kinda said that due to your family being Mormon, I hear they tend to try to keep their kids from the corruption of the world. I think I read something about a Mormon father who would play through the game first while the children watched, discussing anything that came up in a proper context, before allowing them to play it themselves. Of course you are an odd case as you seem to have freedom in regards to violence. Like I said, each family is different, which makes it hard to analyze.

Me personally, I could play Thief when I was five or six. It was one of the first violent things I saw (well, it doesn't need to be, but on normal difficulty you can kill people). After I was exposed to that (which, ironically, was just a few blood splotches, the floodgate became open). I think it was around that time that I started watching Nightmare on Elm Street and other horror movies at 3 in the morning. Violence has been a very important part of my life.
