       Re: Rudeness at a concert?

       To answer the question of why the management allowed it to
       continue was that this was at a fraternal organization and
       everyone there were members and their families.So most people
       knew each other. The organization tends to value family
       relationships. The "president" of the organization was there but
       he didn't see a problem with it apparently. Or maybe didn't want
       to rock the boat with new members? That's why I was questioning
       myself as to if it was rude, because no one else seemed to mind.
       But I agree that he should have discretely gone up to the mom
       after it became clear she was staying and asked her to return to
       her table. Or there was open space in the back behind the tables
       where she could have danced to her heart's content.

       I would also fault any onlookers who were egging the kid on.
       How rude to the performer.

       I get this. No one wants to get a reputation as 'the grouchy,
       kid-hating person'.
       Also, if the president had spoken to the mum about removing the
       child, what are the chances the mum would have listened? I
       suspect pretty low. It's much more likely she would have pushed
       back and defended her child, or otherwise caused an unpleasant
       scene.
