Then who was the little shit looking at the phone with their friends 2 rows in front of me while the film was on? I’m guessing it wasn’t the dwarf from snow white.
They should, but unfortunately today’s parents have been convinced that the world is extremely dangerous and that letting their children go outside to have adventures and build their confidence is “bad parenting”.
I don’t think it’s bad parenting to not leave a 5-year-old alone in a movie theater. Not unless you expect the theater staff to parent on your behalf if that 5-year-old gets bored and decides to leave.
Kids don’t go to theatres alone, do they?

Who said anything about five year olds?
The person above you said:
And you said they should.
Five-year-olds, last I checked, were kids.
Seventeen-year-olds, last I checked, were kids.
Yes. Both are in the subset of “kids,” all of which the person above you said should go to theaters alone. They did not give an age range.
