[Chihuahualala]

Single-mother, 33, thrown out of West End show for breast feeding

Fuck off ... And fuck off some more! Ear defenders or not this WAS NOT the place for your offspring! Aggggh!!!

We went to see "The King and I" years ago in the West end.
My youngest was 4. I had to undertake to remove her immediately if she created any kind of disturbance. I was happy to agree to this as I am a polite and considerate person.

In the event she behaved perfectly and enjoyed the show, but I would have removed her without hesitation if necessary.

Some people are just rude and ignorant.

I think it is disingenuous to suggest that this incident was in any way to do with breast feeding. It is about a rude person spoiling a show for others.

Well clearly math. Maybe you could explain then in words of one syllable why all your talk about punk has got anything to do with a woman asked to leave a west end musical? Whether or not you believe her story that it was because she was breastfeeding or the theatre's story that it was because the baby was distracting?

Condescending much?

Oh my heart bleeds! 😂😂😂😂

math once again, no not the one hand doesn't know what the other is doing regarding what the theatre is posting.
Very normal when someone complains on social media ( even if they are in the wrong) they will ask the person to get in touch.
Yes i do know i worked retail and hospitality long enough and this was very normal.
Yes, the woman was selfish to bring a baby to A SHOW.
How did they hear the baby over the din? Oh maybe the start of the show wasn't loud?
Just a thought?
A complete disregard to others.

Don't think your views regarding punk have gone over people's heads, i just don't think they care
Once again greenday is really not a punk band.
Really is my last post to you as i think you're simply being a gf ( or are/know the woman in question as you're so determined to stick up for her whatever, and be so condescending about it).

If the the theatre management knew their arse from their elbow they would have issued a single statement. They are clearly all over the place and nobody knows what anyone else is doing.

The show opens with a rendition of 'American Idiot'.

We have covered the fact that Green Day is to punk what The Osmonds are to rock and roll. Nevertheless, the show is billed as a punk rock extravaganza. It's therefore ironic that people were allegedly put out by the presence of a disaffected youth.

A baby is not a disaffected youth.

Completely irrelevant

I can't believe this is still going and a baby has now been labelled a "disaffected youth" oh math you crack me up 😂

A 'screaming' baby is not young? Disaffected?

Selfish women. Who takes their 10 month baby to a west end show? Let alone American Idiot FFS!
You just don't do it. We spent over £200 on tickets for the 4 of us and I would have been mad as hell if this woman had been near me with her crying/ screaming baby.
The theatre is at fault and shouldn't have agreed to it.
It's an adult show and should have a minimum age restriction.
Having said that, even if the show was Charlie and the chocolate factory she would still be unreasonable, entitled, selfish and thoroughly stupid.
As for BF in the auditorium... Don't get me started.

Why on earth would you take a baby to a show that is loud enough that it will need ear defenders? How incredibly stupid to risk causing permanent hearing damage to a 10 month old.

As for BF in the auditorium... Don't get me started.

It's legal. What is your problem with it?

Math I have a problem with anyone who thinks its ok to take their baby to the theatre to see American Idiot or anything else for that matter.
I don't care whether it's legal or not to BF them there. Babies are not still or quiet BF or bottle fed. The whole situation is selfish.
As for me doing this, I wouldn't. Because the world does not revolve around me or my children.

Presumably you will be writing to the theatre to complain about their monstrous decision to let this woman and her baby in.

As for BF in the auditorium... Don't get me started.
But what is your problem specifically with breastfeeding in the auditorium?
Why did you post that particular sentence?

Math Why would I write and complain to the theatre? I wasn't there. If I had been there and happened to be sitting next to this woman and her screaming, hungry, wriggling child after paying £50 per head to see what is essentially an adult show, I would definitely complain.

As the OP said this WAS NOT the place for your offspring!

So, to answer your direct question Math I'll break it down for you!

This show was no place for a baby & the baby shouldn't have been taken there in the first place for a multitude of reasons. As it was, the baby WAS there, started crying ('screaming') so the mother should have taken the baby out immediately so that she could feed and soothe her child outside the auditorium where it is quiet and calm.
Theatres are usually hot, sweaty, packed full of people. Why anyone would think that this is a good place to take a baby I have no idea.

francis Xpost! Yes to everything you have just said!! 😄

and said much more eloquently than I !!

I agree Francis I think people need to look outside of their bubble once in a while.

Well the thing I'm most offended by is the use of the word 'discrete' when she describes how she BF...

But Francis, the theatre let her in with her baby, so suitability for a baby is clearly not an issue.

It really doesn't matter to babies that the subject matter is 'adult'.

I wasn't there. If I had been there and happened to be sitting next to this woman and her screaming, hungry, wriggling child after paying £50 per head to see what is essentially an adult show, I would definitely complain.
Correct, you weren't there.
But you confidently describe a screaming, hungry, wriggling child.
Are you clairvoyant?

Hospitals are usually hot, sweaty, packed full of people. Yet babies are frequently born in them. Doctors' waiting rooms ditto, and the same goes for buses, and planes, and pool changing rooms. The vast majority of the world's population lives in places that are hot, sweaty, and packed full of people.

And you haven't answered my question related to this particular wording:
As for BF in the auditorium... Don't get me started.
Maybe you realise you have outed yourself as someone with a bee in her bonnet about public breastfeeding?

This theatre was not packed by any stretch of the imagination, according to the article.

For some, having a baby with then makes them imagine they have got a trump card that enforces their perceived right to do what they want.
Someone else with a bee in her bonnet about the temerity of mothers who think they can occupy space outside of their homes when they have a baby in tow.

The absolute cheek of them!

But Francis, the theatre let her in with her baby, so suitability for a baby is clearly not an issue

Yes it was. This show is advertised at 14+. This stupid, selfish woman simply decided it didn't apply to her. The theatre staff would have been in their rights to refuse access. It is a tremendous pity they did not.

She was allowed in on condition her baby did not disturb other people. It did and she was asked to leave.

What rubbish. I bet the vast majority of posters here who have said this woman was in the wrong are mothers. This has damn all to do with the temerity of mothers who think they can occupy space outside of their homes when they have a baby in tow.

A father turning up with a bottle fed baby who be equally unreasonable in expecting to be accommodated. Sensible parents know that not everywhere is suitable for babies.

A green day musical?! Jesus I'd rather chop off my own tits.
