Yet you hate & resent your sister.

I don't hate my sister, I love my sister but I hate her views. I'll be honest and admit I do resent her, she seems to have flown through life with ease, living with my parents rent free and making me feel very unwelcome. I've struggled throughout life and tried my best to make it on my own financially and i feep like a failire having to come back here for a few days. She seems to have everything easy and uses every opportunity to rub it in, especially when she's being hypocritical. This is the first time I've bitten at her bait, she knows I'm... anti daily mail shall we say and she likes to push my buttons. I probably shouldn't have rose to it.

It's a little girl who's having such a lovely time watching the film (a children's comedy) that she's laughing out loud. She doesn't understand that she needs to stay quiet because of her learning difficulties.

I think those in the audience who got her evicted from the cinema should be ashamed of themselves.

So would you say the same if it was an adult laughing loudly throughout the film (so loud that it is spoiling the enjoyment for others) or would you say something to either them or staff?

I would imagine that if a person can understand a funny film and will laugh when the funny parts are that they will understand if someone says to them to try and not be so loud – again, this is regardless of if a person is disabled or not.

If it were an adult with learning difficulties who didn't understand that they needed to be quiet, yes.

There's certainly the question of whether the Mum tried to quieten her daughter, and there's also a question over whether the cinema warned them or just threw them out. I find noisy cinema goers as annoying as the next person, but I would hope that most people make an exception for disabled children.

I didn't raise my voice at her once which only makes her angrier. I'm not a violent person, by swinging for me and missing just made her look like an idiot.

I don't think a hotel would be practical with my son in tow, I don't drive and in all honesty, my folks enjoy having their grandson here and I pay my way more than my sister does. Hopefully I'll be going home soon!

Are you absolutely certain they're enjoying it at the minute?


I'm not convinced your son is, for a start.

For god's sake, she had an argument with her sister, it's actually quite normal in the grand scheme of things, some of these posts are unreal, talk about judgemental, on a paragraph of facts too.

MissKeith, no, you are right, you shouldn't have rose to it, end of.

Ha ha, many of us come here to debate things we 'hear', 'read in the press', 'been told my someone'. We don't agree, and sometimes it gets heated...BUT...we then turn the computer off and who cares??

We all know that the media will jump at any opportunity for sensational reports. They twist them to make people react, disagree and argue...

What a pity that you would fall straight into their hands to the extend of falling out with your sister over something which for all we know, if you had been at the receiving end of, it could be with the mother herself you could have had the argument!

I really don't think most people would make an exception for a disabled child, they've paid their money, they want to see and hear the film, people will complain about noise, whether it comes from an adult, a child or indeed, a disabled child.

Well considering my dad is dancing round the living room with the little one singing to him whilst shouting answers at the Chase on tv I think I'm certain. Heh.

Going by the responses on here, and on the DM website, you may well be right.

The little girl probably didn't even understand why she couldn't see the rest of the film

When I really think about the issue, it's not about the little girl in the cinema (even though I still think the lack of compassion shown towards them is awful) it's more about the fact that my sister tries her best to attack me by bringing up the things she knows hurts me to the core. I don't usually retaliate and I don't think I will again. I was bullied in my youth and always struggled to keep friends due to one poisonous "friend" and even to this day I still have trust issues. As for my partner, there has been no arguments or no Jeremy Kyle style affairs, just money and career stresses with a newborn who never sleeps and breastfeeds constantly.

I'm hoping I'll be going home soon as I'm feeling very isolated and lonely. Even more so after this.
