My friend buys a senior ticket for the cinema and shes only 54!

[Whatwhatinthewhatnow]

I know its none of my business, but I just feel really guilty! We went to the cinema and she bought one. They didn't ask for ID. I mentioned it to her afterwards and she said, well I am practically a senior and it's cheaper. She has this mindset that she counts as a senior because she doesn't work anymore (due to disability) so often says she feels like she is retired. Her hair is now entirely gray, and she laughs and says yes, now I never get questioned about being a senior! Aside from the fact that I was unknowingly with her when she did it and was on edge the whole time, the cinema prices actually ARE extortionate. So in a way I can see her reasoning.

AIBU or just be happy she can get away with it?

You say she's disabled. Then she can get disabled concessions. Why doesn't she do this?

And yes, I went to see 18 films underage but I don't think it got me a discount - probably the reverse!

Because she has a disability shes entitled to a card which allows free carer entry. She needs to ask the cinema about one. Think it's £7 for a year but worth it if you go often.

Codyking so whilst im making an effort to get my daughter who's petrified of dogs off the beach before the restriction is lifted you're there flaunting it anyway? Entitled much?
People like you will get dogs out right banned. Do you have the same moral attitude about poo bags?

I bought some stupidly cheap travel insurance from the meerkats and now get 241 tickets which is brill

Yes she can apply for a cea card and you would get free entry. You can then split the cost of the one ticket.

I've plenty of poi bags thanks - beech around here are empty because they're are so filthy and smelly - never another sole on there!

Maybe your daughter could dimwits some help?

i think it's shitty to do that - completely 'tory' attitude of, if I can make a few quid, what's the problem?

its a selfish, entitled and unpleasant action and I would not be comfortable to be around my friend if they did that. As for CodyKing, I think what you're bragging about doing is pretty unpleasant to be honest - why are you so special that rules don't apply to you?

I'm not entitled - however I can make my own mind up and think for myself -
Dog on an empty beach? Really not going to get worked up about it - kids playing on a packed beach - then no - I make that judgement call

Height restriction DS is 12 some 7 year olds are taller and can go - he's far more able and sensible - and been waiting a long time to be big enough

15 film - DD is maturer than a lot of her friends - we've watched and discussed similar films - who decided when she's ready to watch something? Who? Not me!!

No need to be sheep and follow the letter of every little sign

Like I said no one died for bending a few 'rules'

No need to clutch those pearls! Seriously untie those pants they're strangling you!

I just find it a bit unsettling that a woman my age thinks of herself as a senior. Since I can't retire unfi! 67 it feels way off.

Some places in the US give seniors discount at 50. Should I be miffed or pleased to be making generous savings ?....

Your friend however is missing a trick as the CEA card would give her far better savings.....

My daughter doesn't need "help" thanks. She has a mother who respects her fears and doesnt trivialise her anxieties- as she gets older she'll get better. She's exposed to dogs on her own terms with owners that respect her anxieties and don't foist their dog onto her where she doesn't expect them.

Btw the height restrictions is a safety issue. Irresponsible.

A whole half CM -

FYI it wasn't any theme park - there weren't any moving parts and he was more than capable - and he was in my care at all times - along with his twin who was just the right height -
