Default Re: Pet Peeves

"Parents" (using that term loosely) that take their children to age "un" appropriate movies.
My husband and I went to see The Legend. There were two families there that had toddlers and wee-ones with them! And these little guys were crying during the scary parts. I was so upset and confronted one of them after the movie.
And the part that really got me:
The theatre has a child care facility (and it's free to movie goers). Very secure, lots of safe things for the kids to do, and they give you a pager in case of an accident or the child needing you. This woman told me that she didn't trust the child care place with her children. So instead she brings them into an R rated movie, scarring them for life! And you wonder why so many kids are so desensitized to violence....
