I think the Father should have had common sense enough to leave if his son was yelling throughout the entire movie.  I can certainly see why the staff wouldn't say anything, they'd smell a lawsuit.  The Father would know his son's ability best and he probably knew ahead of time that his son would be disrupting the entire audience the entire time, it's a shame he had no consideration for others. 

for sure

I think the theatre staff should've offered them a free pass to see it again another time.  I'm sure the father didn't want to leave b/c he'd lose his money, and I totally agree that the theatre didn't want to be called discriminatory.

but thats just it. Can I go to a theatre, talk on my cell phone LOUDLY the whole time, swear at the movie, or keep standing up or something? No, I cant. The father should have reacted to the situation. I know it was a sticky spot for staff, but giving 100 people free passes isn't going to work in their favor either, is it?

You can call me 'Mommy Dearest'!!

I totally agree with you.

What I meant (and admittedly didn't say well) was that they should've offered the father and his son free passes to leave while they were being disruptive.  Sort of like a peace offering, you know?

Sadly, common courtesy really isn't all that common anymore.

Nor is common sense. So very frustrating......

 

 

Can't wait to marry my sweetheart
