I don't think that a crying baby ruins everyone's day. Anyone with children will understand that they are going to cry. I think you could do the train with a young child and any outdoor shows. I would maybe stay away from the long indoor shows. I also think that you could go to restaurants with the child because no one expects it to be silent while they are eating.
No. You cant hear the train robbery with a baby crying. Seriously, it sounds like most of the people on here want to ruin everones day. If the baby cries, it needs something. So you have to take it to the bathroom. Its common sense, common courtesy, and just something you have to do when you have a baby. Dont let them cry it out. If people arent going to be smart, then everyone will leave quickly. Nobody wants to be around a crying baby. Its very annoying.
Laroy,
I suggest you give up on this discussion, you are waayy outnumbered here.
It is an "age" thing.
Admit you have been out voted on this topic and move on. LOL..
It's more about maturity than age, but I understand why Laroy is irritated by these things. I would never sit through a show while trying to hush my crier; instead, I would carry the child to the back and stand. If that didn't calm him, I would exit and meet my party after the show, rather than disrupt the performance for someone else.
As a preacher, I understand that the most joyous sound in the world is that of a baby crying...and being carried out of the room.
My own children were more inclined to sleep on the train than cry, so thankfully that wasn't a problem. The bigger issue is when, on a plane, you are not allowed to get up and walk around with your baby who may have an issue. That one caught us once, and while embarassing, it was one in which there was no escape.
Preachin_Bill wasn't asking about other people, though. He was asking if the child was too young. My response is to get the baby out. Stimulate her senses. Reveal God's incredible creation to her. Just do so respectfully and with her own safety from the elements in mind...and take plenty of pictures. In my opinion, autumn is the best part of the year for these little ones.
