Absolutely appalled at the lack of respect and empathy of couple at the movie theater.

I am a mother to a one year old, a very well behaved one year old I should add. Tonight I went to see a movie with my son and my brother, my son was excited and enjoying himself it's been so cold lately we haven't been out and about much. When he would get upset or whiny I would quietly remove myself from the theater. A couple who was sitting next to us then decided to make it their goal to make sure the man at the concession stand knew how upset they were that there was a small child in the movie they had just seen. They asked if management allows children to be in movies and why they allow that. I was sitting on a bench right next to them putting my sons coat and hat on while I heard all the nasty things she said. When she turned around I told her she should have spoken to me about it rather than complaining to someone who has no ability to change anything that happened (the movie was over already), she told me I was an irresponsible mother for taking my child to a movie and that I should stay home or have my "baby daddy" watch my child. My husband is in Afghanistan, serving our country and protecting inconsiderate people like this woman who have no idea what it is like in my situation, I said to her that my husband was in a combat zone in Afghanistan and she said she didn't care where my husband was.
Her husband added in that I should just watch Netflix.
I've never been so hurt by the words of a stranger who have no consideration for a young mother. Her analogy was that I should stay in and hide my face from the world since I am a mother to a young child.
