My 14 year old son has been attending concerts since he was around 5 years
old. People around him have always complimented him and told him he did
better than some others in the audience. It makes him upset when adults
don't know how to stop talking during a concert. Age isn't always the
culprit for bad manners.
At school concerts I have noticed that sometimes the kids have better concert
manners than their parents. I have seen parents go down and pick up a child
while another group is playing or singing, and I don't mean in a quiet manner.
