Yes, definitely depends on the child. I saw Chicago this one day and in the front row was an 11 year old and a 6 year old who sat mesmerized through the whole show. Next to me, in the 3rd row, was another 11 year old who was the most rambunctious child I have ever encountered in my life!

I would imagine a lot of people will take their children to see MARY POPPINS where they wouldn't take them to see any other show, and most children won't be able to sit still for that long.

I think it's telling that this announcement is being made now after the show has been running for a bit. They must have been having problems/complaints. We can ask popculture when next he pokes his head in here.

Actually, it depends on the parents and how they raised the child...

CJR: I have been taking my niece who is now 16 to see shows since she was 8 months old and she has ALWAYS sat still. So there you have it, some kids can take it some cant but parents need to know when to NOT take them is all.

Children are evil and vicious creatures who have no purpose here.

SOME adults are that way, but all children are.

I think that's exactly the point, LA. Obviously Macintosh seems to have reason to believe the parents don't know.

Too true Undi, too true.

And DG: Even though I am pretty much raising Nicholas, his parents are actual parents they do not let him have whatever he wants and so on, I have delt with MUCH worse.

Well, Paramount now owns the rights after a long battle so it shouldn't be too much longer. I've got my fingers crossed for it, too.

Beav: Parents these days are NOT parents they are the kids and the kids are the parents, I can't STANT when a kid is like "I want this NOW" and the parent is like "Ok, sweetie" NEVER! Nicholas is an angel and always will be cause I don't stand for that crap.

If my kid ever said something like that, I would slap him/her upside the head and lock him/her back in his/her cage until he/she learns respect for his/her father!

That is what I want to do with MOST kids out there. Just give me 2 weeks in their house, they will have MANNERS and be POLITE. Grrrr that so piss' me off.

The way kids talk these days is ridiculous. I cant even repeat here some of the things I've heard my 12 year old brother say to my mother! Had I said those things to her NOW as an adult, let alone at 12, she'd put me through a wall.

The little kids I babysit for (who arent so much little anymore) are absolute sweethearts. They are the most polite and well behaved children I have ever known.

My best friend has a 4 and a 1/2 year old and a just-turned-3 year old (my godson). She's been a nanny and is now an elementary schoolteacher, so thank God she doesn't put up with any crap from her own kids.

Oh good, Rath! I hate to say it, but I honestly can't stand the fact that there are so many brats. I love kids, but there's a big difference between a cute kid and a brat. The 4 kids I babysit, (I've been watching them for the past 9 years -- the oldest is now 12) their mom was a kindergarten teacher. I think that makes a world of difference.

And to think I remember a time when kids were respectful of adults.

I'd also like to mention that I can't even fathom the fact that kids call their friends parents by their first names. After years of knowing my best friends and even after their parents telling me I could call them by their first names, I still call them Mr. and Mrs.

That's right, CJR. My friend's kids call me Aunt (First Name) and other adults Miss (First Name) or Mr. (First Name). They are not allowed to call adults by their first names.

One final thought - scrolling down these pages and seeing all the pink is quite spectacular and very moving. I'm so very glad that Addy will get to see just a little representation of how very much she is loved and cherished!

Exactly. My friend's niece calls me Auntie Heather haha (she's 8 and SUCH a doll!)

I babysat for some kids not too long ago who used to call me Miss Heather.

I think it's one thing for the adult to say when you meet them 'it's alright, you can call me (first name).' My dad used to tell my friends to call him by his first name because Mr Smith made him feel old, but they still all called him Mr Smith... However, I think it's completely another thing for the child to take it upon themselves. My brother does that and I can't STAND it!

don't blame the kids, blamethe parents...children are the innocent victims of poor parenting, and lack of positive role models....

Not always the case. I mean, my mother lets a lot of sh!t slide with my brother since he lived with my father growing up, but he wasn't raised to be blatantely disrespectful. He was taught to know his place (when and what is appropriate to say and to whom) and respect adults... Unfortunately, he's following the horrible example set by his caveman friends at school.
