Why would a store want to cater to folks who don't have the net disposable income to hire a babysitter for 3-4 hours of shopping?
The people with the money to spend are the ones who can hire a babysitter or don't need one in the first place.

Maybe they're actually trying to make shopping better for the people who don't want to be around out of control children.

Good point. Fair warning, these special times are when you do not want to go to the store.

Exactly. Maybe they're just trying to preserve their shopping base of reasonable people.

But how long before these hours aren't going to be enough? For sure parunts will complain "It's too eaarrrllyyy" Soon they will expect stores to cater to them all the time. I can see it now, throngs of people shopping, silently. No music, dim lights, no Christmas decorations....

Wait, even if the kid is autistic, aren't they supposed to be in school during the day anyway? Can't parunts do their shopping then?

They're going to dim the lights, turn off the music, and reduce the number of employees on the floor in order to create a sensory-free environment.

Just being in the store is a stimulus for them. It's all over when one of them activates a toy that plays music or a Santa that dances and sings. Or will the staff be expected to move all of these things off of the shelves???

They are having children for selfish and narcissistic reasons, or are simply irresponsible. Funny... Those are the terms often used to describe the CF
