Madrid - Spanish psychologists say children should not be banned from attending bullfights, but most of them are not interested in the national pastime anyway, El Pais newspaper reported yesterday.

After one region of Spain banned children under 14 from going to bullfights, child protection authorities in Madrid asked five university professors to examine whether there were psychological reasons for taking a similar move. The conclusion, according to El Pais, was that a ban would be "scientifically unsustainable".
