I know a lot of parents who don’t want to take their kids to a movie theater far from their homes. Plus, not all parents want to go to the movie theater.
Most kids I know can go to that theater buy a ticket and snacks on their allowance! Parents don’t want to spend a lot of money on expensive theaters either. Since it is cheaper kids can see movies more often. I know that some people think “The movies are just like T.V. why cant kids just stay home and watch T.V. for free?” Well everybody likes to get out of the house kids don’t like to be cramped up in the house all the time watching T.V.
