LCC rating system

The **LCC rating system** is used by the Luitkeish Classification Council (formerly the Luitkeish Censorship Council) to rate movies, TV shows, home video products, videogames/software, recorded music products, and print media.

## Movie rating system

* **G**: All ages admitted.
* **PG-12**: Parental guidance recommended for children under 12.
