what sort of parent takes such young children to a midnight movie?!

Rohrs said the two took their children to the show because they figured they'd sleep through it. "We just moved here from New Mexico," he said. "We have to go out. We have to do things.

Kev ... I read that response. Are you a parent? If so, then you have experience with infants (one of the children is 4 months old). I don't go to the movies on a regular basis because of the LOUD SOUND SYSTEMS. Perhaps, an adult, accustomed to this, could sleep (my adult daughter qualifies) .. but, an infant? Subjecting an infant to such LOUD sounds can have detrimental effects on their ear drums.

I repeat: What sort of parent would subject their young children to a situation that could have detrimental effects on their nervous systems?! Selfish parents, who are thinking only of themselves.

"We just moved here from New Mexico," he said. "We have to go out. We have to do things.

With two kids they've done plenty of things already. Why not get married, raise the children and let them sleep in their own beds at midnight.
