Shame on the movie theatre litterers

RE: Bad behaviour

-

A few weeks ago I and a few friends went to a matinee showing of Sing. Whether we enjoyed it is not the point. At the end of the feature, the lights came on, and honestly, I couldn’t move I was so stunned. I thought I had warped into a garbage dump.

Now, I understand kids make messes but this was above and beyond what is acceptable. There was popcorn all over the floor, spilled glasses of pop, boxes and bags strewn everywhere. There were few parents and kids leaving with their own garbage in hand.

I may well be in the senior category and often say “we never did that in our day”, but we didn’t! We weren’t allowed to do such things.

So I ask who is teaching young people respect for other peoples’ property? You parents who allow this behaviour should be ashamed, and shame on the kids too. Denise Potter, Burlington
