Taking a 1 year old to game today.

[Ritchie]

I'm thinking of taking my 18 month old boy to his first game today.

How much will his ticket be?

From experience, you won't last the 90 minutes.:wink:

[TamHibs]

It'll be £5 but yeah you probably won't get to see the full 90

I didn't get charged until my daughter was old enough to walk through the turnstile. Just carry in and tell the kid will be on your knee.

Take plenty to do and eat and you'll be fine.

That might not be a bad thing..... :greengrin

I took my 3 year old girl to east fife and she lasted til halftime before getting fidgety I'll be taking her today too just to see how she does at ER , as long as you don't mind not seeing too much of the game you'll be fine .

[Bob Box Fish]

Poor thing

[Cocaine&Caviar]

Seriously, whats the point?

[Cabbage East]

Why would you take a one year old to the football?

He'll never forgive you.

You do realize this? :wink:

[Andy74]

Seriously, whats the point?

Getting to go to the game when you'd otherwise be landed with kid duties elsewhere.

I doubt its to entertain the kid!

[Judas Iscariot]

Seriously, whats the point?

Why are you so offended by this?

[Andy74]

Why are you so offended by this?

Aye. Let's put people off that need to bring a child with them or they cant come. That'll help our gates!

I can only imagine these folk don't have kids or have wives that don't care about being landed with them every weekend!

[Cauld Bovril]

I started taking my boy when he was 3 and he always got restless about half time. He`d play games on my phone for the second half. He`s a season ticket holder now. Get them in young before the glory hunting pals have an influence on them, does no harm at all.

Take the bairn along mate and see how it goes. I waited until my daughter was 4 and she enjoyed it. Cost me a fortune mind when you add in a strip/programme (must have as a momento as first game) and pizza/juice.

Well worth getting them hooked early on. Hibs kids deal also great value at £10 and will be getting form today whilst at the game.

Hope you have a great day.

Cheers

Bet he got fidgety and restless and wanted to leave by half time.





Doubt the kid had much fun either.

[Ritchie]

Seriously, whats the point?

Well, how did it go? I bet you are home early.:greengrin

Should this be a Child Protection matter? :greengrin

[Jim44]

Some folk will do anything to get a bairn to sleep.

Why are you in no doubt it'll be a big part of his life, when he's still only 1? Perhaps it's up to him to decide if he's interested in football and, if so, who he wants to support, when he's old enough to do so.

Geezus. Proud Dad takes pleasure in spending time with his son and gets sniped at. I despair.

If I ever have a child I'd spend time with him/her at the football, how else do you get interested in it as well. Eventually it will become like taking your child to the park and I think it's nice to see a thread about taking an 18 month old child to a game. These kids are the future and for anyone sniping at the dad you should hopefully realise the mistake, just because you wouldn't take a bairn to the football doesn't mean everyone won't.

I agree. What a terrible parent. :rolleyes:

[sleeping giant]

I first took my son to Easter road on his 4th birthday but ended up leaving at half time as he was greeting that it was his birthday and he wanted to play with his toys.

I took my daughter to a Derby at Easter road when she was 5 and she fell asleep across my legs.

Took her back last season and 65BD stopped and told her the last time he seen her she was snoring.
Mortified is an understatement :-)

You are at the wind up eh

I agree.

I started going to the football when I was about 3. ER with my mum and grandad when Hibs were at home and to watch my Dad in the EOS league when Hibs were away. When my old man hung up his boots then I went to away games as well.

Never forgiven my parents for getting me hooked on Hibs. Shocking parenting akin to child abuse.

[Sas_The_Hibby]

I'm not sniping at anyone: I'm just saying we can't decide for our children what they will or won't be interested in, even if we'd like to. We love them for who they are, not whether they like the same things as we do or not, and I'm sure that's also true of the op.

[Sas_The_Hibby]

I agree. What a terrible parent. :rolleyes:

See my post #30.

[Sas_The_Hibby]

Why must I be on the wind up to suggest that you can't assume a child will do exactly what a parent would like them to do? My son did turn out to be interested in football and to support Hibs, but I didn't know that when he was one year old, nor assume that would be the case.

[Sas_The_Hibby]

I agree.

That's fine but I'm sure they would still have loved you if it had turned out that you weren't interested in football (and, surprise, surprise, not every child is). And, before anyone starts, NO, I'm NOT suggesting the op doesn't love his son, of course he does.

It's great doing things you enjoy with your children, but parents have to be prepared for the fact that their child may have different interests to them, as they grow up.

Because its a fathers duty to take his children to watch Hibs, and make sure they suffer like we do.

The sins of the father and all that.

That was the answer i got from my dad, when i asked him why i was a Hibs fan. :greengrin

But what about the kid?
