Oh, they're entitled. You don't take your kids out to a public place and ignore them unless you're entitled.

100% You don't need to drag your kids to every event. Signed, a parent.

Thank you kind redditor! It's posted on one of those "suggested subreddits" or whatever you see on the reddit home page.

Anyways it's comforting (?) to know that every city in America has stuff in common. In my city we have these entitled jerks too.

A smart parent would bring their kid to one of those family-friendly screenings, sit near the back, and work with their child on how best to behave during a specific situation.

An entitled parent would bring their kid to any old screenings and would let them scream/kick seats /run around and throw the whole “oh they’re a kid, what do you expect” card.

If you are a parent, particularly a parent of a special needs kid, it’s on you to make sure your kid acts appropriately. One day your kid’s going to have to do that exact same thing on their own. Prepare them for it. Teach them not to be an asshole. Just because a kid has a disability or is non-neurotypical doesn’t mean they can’t be taught social skills.

Side note: I brought my kid to those Alamo sensory-friendly screenings when he was 3 or so and he loved them. I remember having some hiccups but hey, that’s why we sat near the aisles in the back.

I’m here from another sub. Hi!
