Moral of the story, we're not these kid's parents...make the parents be parents.
While I agree in theory; we are "responsible adults and some with kids of our own...I don't think there is anything wrong with "taking a stand" so to speak....or trying to set an example...
Again - to each his own

I'm not getting defensive...just don't like to hear about DJs being unhappy because they're playing music that's against their better moral judgement. I think it's better to take events where you're going to be happy working - might make for a better event.![]()
Anna -I'm simply making choices about the kind of entertainment I offer, as do you Hey if a client wants to pay me a grand to play Buck Cherry and Get Low...the customer is always right.....
I'm always happy workin when there a pay check at the end.

That being said...if I don't have to play it I don't. I find other music that works......
If I was so uncomfortable (say if was all metal music) I would decline the event.
As I said;to each his/her own
