What was 6 year old doing in midnight screening?

I saw them interviewing the parents that brought their 3 month old and 4 year old. Not right, those kids should have been home in bed. Definitely not a movie for a 4 year old. I'm glad they are okay, but they would have been safe if they were home in their beds.

my wife asked the very same question ........


WHAT WAS 6 YEAR OLD DOING IN MIDNIGHT SCREENING?

what makes a difference at this point? there are so many more things to question as to why was or why wasn't! the shooting did not happen because a six year old was at a midnight showing> we should be asking why was the emergency door not set with an alarm so that if some dumb a## went out of it to get 4 guns the people in that theater would think wow alarm> maybe a problem somewher! or even more important than why was a 6yr old there, how about a 24 yr that continued an education all the way up to grad school in a medical field and then suddenly with drew, why didnt somebody look into that? yes maybe financial reasons but the way things are today especially at colleges i think it could have been looked into with even a withdrawl interview. those are just 2 things that should be questioned before "why was a 6 yr at a midnight movie"! just a thought

1. It's summer.
2. Not everyone goes to bed at 9 and gets up at 6.
3. It's not like they show a porn intro at the midnight screening.

I'll be judgmental with you :howdy:

Parents are so self-centered these days that they don't really care about their children's needs or routines. They drag them wherever *they* want to go, and to heck with sleep and food for their tot. I give you the continuous wail of tired, crabby youngsters in the Wal-Mart as evidence.

It seems completely ignorant to me that grown adults would so desperately need to see a movie - A FREAKING MOVIE!! - the second it came out that they would pack up their infant and pre-schooler and trot them out that time of night.

Young children should be home in bed at midnight. Case closed.

It's better than leaving the Children unattended! I took my Kids to Drive-Ins all the time.

FY, I never said that it was ok to take your children to the movies at that time of night, I just said that what people do with their children is their business, not anyone Else's.
FCS get a life and mind your own business.

Actually we want to reserve the right to criticize them without some control-freak little Leftist telling us what we can and cannot disapprove of.

But thanks for playing.

I saw that too. The mother protected her 2 kids down on the floor while baby daddy ran out the door and drove away. He had been covering the 3 month old but decided to just hope his little baby wouldn't get murdered. I can't believe that ball-less wonder would agree to an interview. I guess that's the kind of "parent" who brings infants / toddlers to the movies at midnight.

Another thing that is irking me and it doesn't have anything to do with kids being there, but why do they keep calling him the "suspected shooter". He's the shooter, not a suspect, he did it, plain and simple.

This amazes me. This almost implies that it’s the parent’s fault for taking their kids out too late. This could have happened during any showing at any time. James Holmes went into this theater and started shooting indiscriminately. He didn’t care if children, women, teenagers, elderly people were in the path of his bullets.

I don’t like that parents take their kids to movies at this hour for a bunch of reasons, but one of them certainly out of fear that they might get gunned down by a crazed loon. If that were the case, you may as well keep your kids inside, because this kind of thing can happen at any time of day or night: Columbine, Arizona shooting, shooting at Virginia Tech, shooting at Binghamton NY, and so many more mass shootings… all happened during the day.

I suspect if the premier showing had been scheduled at noon on Thursday, this shooting in Aurora would have happened then.

Shooting or not, just from what I've heard about it, I don't think it's appropriate to take small children to that type of movie.
