I'm willing to bet everyone that voted yya is definitely not a parent and has absolutely no clue how to raise a child. You need to expose babies/kids to public situations. That's life. Deal with it. Although, I do hate when people let their babies scream or young ones run around, they indeed need exposure but the parent also needs to discipline them. If they can't behave, leave.

Bringing a baby to the movies is just a bad idea. I've never seen a patient baby.

I bring babies as a snack...I mean, theater food is so expensive now!

I wonder if Anon up there is a parent... up to a certain age, it is NOT good to bring your child to the movies, and it's rude as hell, too. Theaters are too loud for babies' ears, and you can't reason with them to not get upset about it. If you're talking about a 3 or 4 year old, it's different... but if you can't keep them from bothering the other people in the movie, you should leave. To selfishly ruin someone elses experience with your badly-behaved child is wrong, rude, and frankly kind of trashy. Kids before the pre-school age are rarely able to sit still and quiet for 1 1/2 - 2 hrs. There are plenty of more appropriate and less intrusive ways to socialize your baby, like parks, playgrounds, libraries, and play centers intended to house wild, screaming children.

@420Grrl: I have a 4 year old. Who I've taken to movies/restaurants/etc since she was born. When she was a baby she slept through movies, and if she woke up and fussed I took her in the hall til she relaxed. If she wouldn't, I left. They also make special ear plugs for babies that state on the package movie theaters are a great place for use. I'm not stupid. I'm not rude. And most definitely not trashy. If a parent can't control their kid they're not very good at their job. And I clearly stated in my first comment if a parent can't keep their kid in line they need to leave. So don't assume shit about me, you arrogant bitch.
