That's the idea, although their effect is arguable.

Basically, the only rating that does not allow kids to see it is NC-17 (no-one under 17 admitted). Even then, the admittance of younger viewere is sometimes hard to enforce - rather like trying to enforce dringing ages in bars. All other ratings allow anyone to attend, although varying degrees of "parental guidance" are suggested. So if a parent says "Timmy, this film contains a lot of swearing, nudity and violence" that can constitute "parental guidance" enough to get a child admitted.

The "dividing line" is the R rating, which requires that a parent must accompany anyone under age 17. But G, PG and PG-13 all allow a child to attend unaccompanied.
