Originally posted by Sicilian Babe: My heart broke for that family. I thought it was awful, and very sad. I'm not sure how I feel about the manager's actions. I wasn't there. I don't know how disruptful he was being. However, and I know this is going to sound very, very cold, it costs me $40 to get into the movies, not to mention popcorn, soda, etc. How loud was this boy? Were other customers complaining? Does the manager owe more to this boy because he's in a wheelchair than he does to his other customers? I guess you would have to have been there to know the answer. SB I heard an interview with the mother a few days ago, the theatre was supposed to help him come to terms with being in a crowd. even the people around them said he might have been laughing louder but it was at the same time as everyone else so it wasn't bothering others. She also gets seats right next to the door so if he does start "Acting up" for lack of a better term they can wheel him out to the hallway fast and not bother others. I see what you are saying though SB and I agree with you to a point but I think they could have handled it in a better way.

If that wasn't the case, then the manager is just a jackass. exactly. The kid was probably doing something wrong such as laughing louder then other people.

Isn't raggingbull from Walkill? He's away at college, though, or I would have thought he could have been one of the complainers.
