Glennon is so right here<\/strong><\/a>. At a school concert she was blocked from seeing her child perform because the person in front of her insisted on holding up an iPad to record the event:<\/p>\n

Please don\u2019t do this. There is no stadium seating in school cafeterias. And so when you do this \u2013 when you sit in a chair and \u00a0hold your device above your head for the entire performance- you are blocking the view of many, many parents behind you.<\/p>\n

What you are saying to every parent\u00a0behind you when you do this is:<\/p>\n

MY RIGHT TO SEE\u00a0AND<\/em><\/strong>\u00a0RECORD MY KID IS MORE IMPORTANT THAN YOUR RIGHT TO SEE YOUR KID AT ALL.<\/p>\n

What you are saying is:<\/p>\n

MY LATER IS MORE IMPORTANT THAN YOUR RIGHT NOW.<\/p>\n

We can\u2019t have it all at these end of the year concerts and plays \u2013 \u00a0but we can each have one important thing. If we are each respectful \u2013\u00a0we can each see the kids perform.<\/em>\u00a0That can happen. Unless you decide that this\u00a0one important thing<\/em>\u00a0is not enough for you because you want THREE THINGS: 1. To see your kid perform 2. To record the entire event and 3. To remain sitting comfortably in the audience.<\/p>\n

I just don\u2019t think you can have all three of those things without stealing part of the experience from everyone behind you.<\/p>\n

I know you love your kid, but the thing to remember is that everyone in that audience loves their kid exactly as much as you love yours.<\/em><\/p>\n
