No BD, that is not appropriate

BD texts me today to see if he can take DS to see a movie. He asks if he can take him to see Iron Man 3. Seriously?!
1) DS is 4.5. Iron Man 3 is PG13. Can you take DS to see that movie? No way BD, no way.
2) You shouldn't be asking last minute.
I tell you Iron Man 3 is PG13 so I'm going to go with no way. I ask if there are any kid movies out. You respond no, there's The Croods, but you two already saw that.
....Okay? You then ask what you guys can do. Seriously?! He's your son. I do not need to plan things for you guys. Do what you've been doing with him the last 4 years, ffs.
Vent over.

Re: No BD, that is not appropriate
Welp, I'd totally let my 4.5 year old kid see Iron Man so there's that.
But I don't see why he's looking to you for ideas on how to entertain his kid. Sounds like a personal problem.

Yeah, that PG13 is totally for sh!ts & gigs. I mean, it's really NBD if 4yo's hear bad language, watch sexual content, and see really violent scenes, among other things.
Do you feel sorry for my children?
I didn't say you had to let your kid see a movie you didn't feel comfortable with so no need to get nasty. This man sounds like a special breed of worthless anyway since clearly he knew you wouldn't approve or he wouldn't have asked. And asking you want to do with his kid? Eww.
But yeah, let's all focus on how terrible it would be for me to allow my kid to see a super hero movie.

It has no bearing on me what movies you let your kids watch. DS loves superheros, but I'm not going to let him watch a movie I think is inappropriate. I'm glad BD isn't going to let him watch it, but honestly, it's not like I could stop him. Poor decision making? IMO, yes. Something I have control over? No.
I thought you were being snarky saying I was overreacting, but I guess I misunderstood you. My apologies. It doesn't bother me that you'll let your DS watch that movie. Unless you were a parent that let another kid who wasn't allowed to see it watch it at your house

BD is one hot mess, if you've seen my other posts. I know you're not new around here because I saw another poster reference that you're back. I'm twister, I have a DS(4.5) with BD and a DD(5 months) with DH. I am the CP and BD is CO'd EOWE, but never takes his time on his time and is pretty erratic, but part of that is my fault because I allow him to take DS pretty much whenever he requests it, even when it's last minute. BD also has a 2yo DD (one state & 3.5 hours away) with his XG that he is currently fighting a custody battle for. What's your mini-bio, if you don't mind me asking?
I meant that he had a personal problem, not you. I was simply saying I'd let my kid watch it but I understand why you're irritated.
I've posted here off an on for about five years, if not more. I was around back when Illumine's little girl was born lol. I have three kids, one I share with an ex who has decided in the last year or so to let his ex-wife do all the communication. If I were feeling feisty, I'd tell her to piss off and have my daughter's father do it but it's not worth the argument. He's as lazy as he ever was.
Anyway, my kids are 11, 9, and 15 months. The nine year old is the aforementioned daughter. I've been married to mr man for six years now. Mr pain in the lives four hours away with his wife and daughter, the latter of whom is a little bit younger than my youngest. He sees my daughter when it's convenient for him to do so and only when the court has compelled me to handle half the transportation.
