Restaurant to Ban Kids Under 6 - Older Customers Complained about Rowdiness <-- clicky for story.
So, what do you think? The restauranteur's right or not?
I am all for it. Years ago when my parents took us out, if we misbehaved we'd need only "the look" to snap us out of it. If my infant brother had a crying jag, mom or dad would go outside or in the vestibule until he quieted down, just so they don't disturb the other diners. Today, you have screaming brats running amok and bothering anyone in eye shot. There are plenty of times I will ask for a table with no children nearby. You know, a lot of times the hostess will even ignore that and I have to insist. She gives me a look and that makes me walk out the door.
I pay good money to go out and when I dine out, it's not because I'm too lazy to cook, but for a nice evening out. I will be damned if some inconsiderate parent will allow his snot nosed brats to ruin my night.
