They are legally and socially responsible for the behavior of their children. Adults are no more valuable than children. A child should also be able to experience a fine dining environment when they can stay within socially acceptable behavior. Not all children are rude screaming disasters just like not all black men are dangerous thugs. Stereotyping children is just as bad as stereotyping adults.

However unlike adults children are prone to mood swings and unpredictable behavior, what starts out as well behaved child could turn into a total meltdown for little reason. Again not blaming the children but parents should try not let their children be disruptive. 
Unattended or out of control children will be given a bag of candy and a puppy.

Take the kid to Chucky Cheese or McDonalds. That is what those places are for. I do not go there, so keep your brat out of my restaurant.

I've gone back page after page of disturbances at restaurants starting from today and going back in time and I haven't seen a video of a small kid posted at all but dozens, if not hundreds of adults fighting, screaming, getting arrested, shooting, and killing inside restaurants.(July 22, 2015 at 6:31 pm)Brakeman Wrote: It's not the kids it is the parents.

Most look something like this: or this: And that is not including the numerous "sex" in public videos that I'll leave off. Speaking from my personal experience, I have been much more disturbed in public by adults shouting and fighting by far than from kids. My seven year old daughter has never acted out in a restaurant even once in her life as far as I know, neither did her 17 year old sister when she was young. It's not universal. I would be irate if someone refused service to my family because they thought all kids were little bitches, just as you would be Irate if someone stereotyped you. The individual matters.

If it's a little kid who is just being playful, to a degree I can tolerate it. If it's a screaming baby though it's really ear-splitting though, that's what I can't stand. There aren't many sounds more piercing and headache inducing.
If I'm on the train and someone sits down near me with a screaming baby I'll get up and move down the train. I can't sit there with it in my ear.

"Ironically like the nativist far-Right, which despises multiculturalism, but benefits from its ideas of difference to scapegoat the other and to promote its own white identity politics; these postmodernists, leftists, feminists and liberals also use multiculturalism, to side with the oppressor, by demanding respect and tolerance for oppression characterised as 'difference', no matter how intolerable." - Maryam Namazie  (July 22, 2015 at 10:05 am)Pandæmonium Wrote: Yeah I've often felt the same. Not sure what it is, maybe something isn't wired properly for us but damn there's just nothing cute or 'lovely' about them. They all look the same, and I immediately get annoyed by them Often times I think it's because they grow up to be assholes. And sometimes I think, they already are, since I've been massively mobbed by my peers when I was still a child. ![[Image: Bumper+Sticker+-+Asheville+-+Praise+Dog3.JPG]](https://images.weserv.nl/?url=1.bp.blogspot.com%2F-d-3rfdI7nG0%2FTerwtFyFXoI%2FAAAAAAAACak%2F7kFSmHeVrng%2Fs320%2FBumper%2BSticker%2B-%2BAsheville%2B-%2BPraise%2BDog3.JPG)
