    Many theatres now offer specific movies times for parents, so all the audience members understand if a baby starts crying. Depending on the baby's schedule, you may be able to plan a trip to the movies while your little one is napping—just avoid any action or adventure flicks with lots of loud noises?

    What should I do if I have a small child who purposely takes food or drinks from others?
    Community Answer
    Before you go to the movies, make sure to let your child know that they will be punished if they bother anyone or take their concessions. If your child misbehaves during the movie, apologize to the person they're bothering and take your child outside until they can behave.
