When I took my son to his first game, we went with my folks and my wife came. It wasn't bad because the grandparents wanted to play with him, so I didn't have to do much except hold him part of the game. My wife wanted to take him to some this year (he is 2 now) and I don't think it would be such a good idea.
Your wife may be the love of your life, but she is bat crap crazy if she wants to bring a two year old to a game that has National Championship implications. You will be leaving by the middle of 2nd quarter.
You should teach your children to behave. My 3 year old is starting her 4 year with season tickets and my 1 year old is starting her second. They both sit nicely and watch the game, its called expected behavior.
Also I have kids and people randomly talking about their kids bother me. My kids are goddamned elite K-Stateriots I know this because people tell me, not because I ask.
You should not be so quick to judge another parent.
You're right. The bat crap crazy line rubbed me the wrong way. My one year old does sit through the games as has my 3 year old.
Sorry MIR, I was probably pak'd when I wrote that. I had a couple nice days of pak'n and bbs'n and got carried away. What I meant is that, even with well behaved kids, you have to take them to the bathroom/change diapers/ naps/ feeding schedules, etc. If my wife said we had to take the kids at a very young age, then I would say, "No we do not. Babysitters need jobs, too. I am watching the game. I will be a good dad the rest of the w/e, but for 3 hours, I am going to watch football." Nobody is batshit crazy.
