Its BYSB night at our local movie theater!

"Bring your screaming baby night"
Loudest kid wins free popcorn for the family!
You have got to be kidding'!

I have seen where a few theatres during the week, or even during the day. They have parents bring their kids and the parents can have their kid in a movie without getting that “I just paid $20 to hear a screaming baby?!?” look from other patrons.
When our cousin was an infant, he would sleep at noisy family gatherings; but the moment there was a lull in the conversation, he would wake up and whimper. When things got noisy again, he would go back to sleep.
“. . . they can watch the movie knowing that if their baby or kid fusses it’s OK.”A church we attended several years ago had a “crying room,” where the service could be seen through a large window and heard via a speaker. Moms could enjoy privacy, but still know what was going on. Great idea!
The Okinawan movie theater I went to today had a sign (in English for the Americans) asking/telling people not to bring in children under 3. I like that. But the Japanese/Okinawans typically don’t bring small children anyway unless it is a child’s movie.

I’m yet to see something like that happen at a restaurant.

I’ll say! How can they sleep through all that noise?

Terrific idea! Now how about designated sober nights at rock concerts so I can hear the artist I paid to hear instead of the drunks bellowing.
