For not sending DS (6y) to a film party

[Halfling]

Hi, please can you help me with a dilemma. DS 6 yo was invited to a birthday party along with a handful of other children to a classmate's party in his garden. Now with the ongoing rainy weather, the plan has been changed and the birthday child's mum has messaged saying they'll be taking the children to watch a film at the local multiplex to celebrate. However, I am not sure if this is a good idea - halls without windows, crowds, delta variant affecting children etc. DH feels I am catastrophising and preventing my son from enjoying a party after a very long down. Please help me make a sensible decision. Would you send your primary school aged DC to an indoors party at a venue with no windows?

DH and I have been really strict and careful since last spring and I haven’t wanted to take my DC to the cinema since they reopened but this is a birthday party so I’d definitely let him go if I were you.

Can get infected with anything, at any time. Get run over by a car. Be a James bulgar.

It’s well know covid doesn’t have an impact on the majority of children

I would let him yes.

Yes, without a shadow of a doubt. Listen to your husband on this one.

I've been to the cinema twice recently and people are well spaced out, wearing masks etc. I felt quite safe

Looks like there is an absolutely clear verdict on this one then. I guess I am being a bit unreasonable... I'll go ahead and send DS to the party tomorrow. Thank you everyone for your replies

Yup, I’d send mine.

I've seen two recent pics on Facebook of friends at the cinema with noone else or only a handful of other people there. I reckon it'll be safer than you think.

Yup I’d let mine go to the cinema like this

Mine went to the cinema the other week with a friend, there's social distancing measures in place and all fine.
Yes, I think it would be fine to go, bit of fun after all the crap everyone has had in lockdown.

Absolutely I would send him. Kids need some normality back now. They're all in school together and the cinema will have to adhere to covid rules. You're being dramatic.

I’d be reluctant, like you. But you can’t really say no. My YA ds has been.

I’d rather they’d had a film at home and sleepover tbh.

Yes, in fact we are going to the cinema this weekend with friends
