Parental Advisory!!!

Good morning all! This will contain foul language so close the page now if you don't care to see it!

OK so yesterday was James's birthday. After an absolute shite day at work he came home to a little surprise from the kids. They wanted to do a cake & balloons and jump from behind the sofa and shout surprise. James knew about this as I needed him to come in the front door and also let me know when he was in the driveway so I could hide the kids. After the kids settled down, ate dinner and had baths we started to get ready for our date :)
Date night is something we look forward to and also something we don't do often as its usually our good friends Joe and Darik who watch the turds and we value our friendship with them so we try not to ask them to often. We don't want them to hate us and as my kids can be absolute shits this could happen.
Anyways after visiting with them for abit we head out to dinner. We take Anne Boleyn as she is much cooler to drive than the van ;) We crank up the music that we cant listen to when the kids are around and we sing our hearts out (well OK James sings I attempt it) We arrive at Panera bread for dinner. We were both in great moods by now....I mean who wouldn't be?....No kids, loud music and great company. We sat and ate, laughed at each other and talked about anything and everything BUT the kids. (we do love them very much but try to make it a point not to talk about them on our dates) After eating we head over to the movies which is something we both enjoy doing. We decided to go see Harry Potter and the half blood prince. We buy our tickets and settle into our seats. We sit and talk until the trailers come on which is when the fun begins......

Sat in front of us a little to my left are 3 adults and a little boy around the age of 4/5! I don't mind kids at the movie IF its a movie aimed towards a 4 or 5 year old and its during the day, I mean even them going to a 7pm showing I'm OK with IF its a kids movie. Yeah some of you may say well this is a kids movie but if you have seen any of the harry potter movies you will know that its not for a 4 year old!! OH and NO I am not calling any of you bad parents if you have let your 4 year old watch these movies,(I would hope if you have it was in your own home) some kids love them and can handle some of the scenes, my sister Lisa was one of these kids but my mum never dreamed of taking her to the movies to see it, it was always at home.
OK anyways back to the story.
This poor little boy was begging his mother before the movie had even started to go home "Mommy please take me home, I wanna go home mommy. Please mommy I just want to go home" the mother grabs the boy by his arm and says "NO sit down now, we are not going home, now eat your popcorn and be quiet". This struck a nerve with me....I leaned to James and said "that poor baby just wants to go home. What kind of dickhead parents are they". The movie starts and I'm TRYING to enjoy it but all I can see and hear is the poor kid getting in and out of his seat, asking to leave and getting told off which would set him off crying, he cryed quietly which was a plus. By 30Min's into the movie I could feel my blood starting to boil.....it wasn't really about him being at the movies or him being loud-ish it was that his fucking stupid arse parents made him watch it.....he didn't want to be there, he had made this clear by asking nicely for them to take him home. I understand them wanting to see a movie together and maybe they don't have a babysitter but you know what that's the fucking sacrifice you make when you choose to have kids!! Your life is no longer about YOU, its about caring for them and making sure THEY are OK.
I think for about 2hrs of the movie I was fighting with myself not to lean forward and smack the shit out of this woman. I couldn't look her way without seeing red and as for the father well what a bastard he was....laughing at his boy cos he told him he was scared. Im not the greatest mother and I shout and spank my kids but fuck me some people really should not be allowed to breed. There are so many people out there that would be amazing parents (yes I'm talking about you lovey) and it hurts me to know the struggle they go through but yet these sad twats who think its OK to get pissed off at there son cos he is sat scared watching a film he really doesn't want to see kills me!
Poor James could see me squirming in my seat and kept asking me if I was bored. I'm sorry honey. I really wasn't bored, I thought it was a good film and part of me wants to go see it again so I can watch it all without being so side tracked by the white trash cunts in front of us. I think next time (I hope there wont be a next time) that I may just get arrested for kidnapping and assault. I'm not sure I will be able to stop myself from leaning forward and telling her what a piece of worthless shit she is, grabbing the kid and walking out the movie after kicking her in the head. This may sound extreme to some of you but as you can see I a bit of a Natzi when it comes to what kinds of movies my kids watch and don't worry I would wait outside with the child, I wouldn't actually run away with him ;)
Ugh I'm sorry guys but I had to vent and yes I could have done it without swearing but then it really wouldn't be a blog from me :)


I think that's really all I have to say today. I'm waiting for the bug guys to come and then we are gonna go to Kamie's and let the boys run off some energy.

Hope you all have a good day!!!xxx

  1. Leanna! I agree wholeheartedly with you and I probably would have said something loudly to David. That is my passive aggressive way of saying things I don't want to say directly!
