In general.

I will never understand why parents take kids that young to anything like a sports game. They're too young to understand or remember anything about it. They're nothing but a pain in the ass for the parent meaning they can't focus on whatever it is they're at. Then most times a kid that age is a pain in the ass to the people sitting nearby too. The waste of money that it is.

Games, nicer restaurants, movies not geared towards them. Even an amusement park at that age.
I've seen it at Dodger games and elsewhere. You're sitting there seeing this dope parent with this 3 year old. All of their attention is on the kid and not on the game. All the kid's attention is on the food the parent is trying to feed them or on a toy. Or whining because it's hot. Up and down, up and down constantly to get more things for the kid or to go change them. And the whole time I just wonder. Why the hell are you even here? You paid $30-40 per seat to sit there and do this? Up close we're talking $180-$300 per seat. All the added expenses, the drive, the hauling all this kid's crap across the burning hot parking lot.
Should try and sell volcano insurance to people like that as they're clearly the dopes that would buy it.


Baseball is the one sport where you dont need a great attention span, theres so little gong on and multiple play stoppages between pitches and/or hits. Outside of soccer its probably a game thats most connected to kids than any other. I get that you and others are overly emotional, but I bet you didnt have these same opinions before this child got hit with a baseball yesterday, no reason kids shouldnt be brought to any sports game, let alone baseball.
