Here's my hot button:

Bring up the subject of children in public places and you will find a number of recurring complaints. There is, for example, the all-too-familiar scenario described by Layla Revis of Hollywood, California: "I was watching Cold Mountain, and there was a couple sitting in the middle of the theater with a 3-year-old girl. Naturally, the kid flipped out during the first battle scene and cried for a half-hour. Then, finally, somebody yelled, 'Take your kid outside,' and the whole theater started applauding."

I've stopped going to theatre showings because of this. I've seen people bring their infants, only a few weeks old, to the theatre. And they think it's cute when the infant cries. Sheesh.

That's why I wish there were more drive-ins still in existance. We have two in our area and have started taking our family to these, instead. We don't have to worry about if the children are wiggly and make some noise (well, there was that time when my son accidently slammed the truck door on my foot and screamed loud enough that I am sure the neighborhood outside the theatre heard it, but that was before the movie had started... but I digress...). It's also cheaper, since children under 12 get in free and we can bring our own refreshments.
