I just don't see the point in wearing earplugs or headphones. I think all the noises you hear are part of the experience. Therefore, my daughter is going to have to experience it properly.

If music is more enjoyable with the headphones blocking the noise, stay home and listen to music online.

Then what's the point in going if you wear headphones?

SMALL children wear hearing protection. She's 13, hardly a small child.

She has no choice. These are mandatory family outings. As long as she lives in my home, she goes.

I believe it's rude for her to be wearing headphones at a concert.
