It's not child abuse or child endangerment if they treat Dick with respect! You have to start him young, bring him in as eight or ten, and have him build a strong father-and-son relationship with Bruce. Then you need to have Dick discover Bruce's secret, and want to be apart of it; but have Bruce and Alfred tell him NO because he's too young and it's too dangerous. However, that wouldn't stop them from training Dick to become Robin -- in the future. The problem becomes no one wants to take the time and build the relationship and trust. They just want to put the kid in the costume and have at it. But that's just WRONG. Bruce trained for years to be Batman; he would make Dick go through the same process (even if it's an expedited version).

I suppose that as long as the movie never actually showed a teenage boy being deliberately taken by an adult into the presence of violent criminals - but merely training him to do so when he's old enough - it might not cross the line. But as soon as he actually becomes a Robin and goes out and starts getting put in harm's way - even if the adults in the situation are merely allowing him to put himself in harm's way - in the process of Batman's totally illegal pursuit of vigilante justice, it really, really is child abuse/child endangerment, and while within the world of the comics that never really seems that bad compared to what they're up against and so on, I think the realistic style of the movies would make it uncomfortably apparent.

But that's just my opinion, obviously, and as I said, I still really would like to see Robin show up in the movies, and I suspect Nolan would handle it really well.

I think that's kind of part of the point - it is a really dark, destructive relationship, which is exactly the theme so far of Nolan's films. It would fit.
