Who are you going to believe, the manager doing his job or some white trash cow ham who looks like she would eat you if she could.
Besides, she looked like she could afford to miss a lunch or two.
I don't see the problem. If I sat in a restaurant and screamed for an hour I'd be booted from the place or dragged off by the police.
It's called "disturbing the peace," you idiot parents. No one thinks your rat is cute, and no one has sympathy for you. Get your idiot screaming brat out of the place of business until it calms down, and don't come back until it does.
I side with the restaurant on this one. If I'm trying to have a serious conversation, or even if I'm not, at the next table,
the last thing I want, is to hear your crotch monkey screaming the whole time.
I notice that kids act up in public places a lot, perhaps because they think, "Oh look, everyone's paying attention to ME. I'm so special. Everyone's looking at me! Maybe if I embarrass mommy, she'll give me what I want." Either that, or their parents have so little time to spend with them, they want all the attention they can get. Who knows?
Having kids is a sacrifice. That sacrifice includes not subjecting people to your screaming kid.
Everyone needs to take responsibility for their actions, if you want kids, have them, but realize that your life as you knew it is over for many years to come.
No, I don't believe the restaurant kicked her out for nothing. Restaurants don't kick out potentially paying customers for no reason.
More restaurants should ban people like this.
I'd kick them out too, if the mom didn't wrangle the little bed-pissers.
Back in the day when smoking was allowed in public I always asked to be seated in the non-smoking section. I did not smoke and did not want to smell it.
Something I can't understand is why restaurants don't have no children sections. If I am going to spend a nice night out I do not want a screaming kid to spoil it.
Common consideration for others dictates that a crying child should be removed from a public place. But what is even more troubling is that items like this are assimilated into the news stream, as if they even belong there. Any item, no matter how trivial, becomes a matter of objection and confrontation, and we continue to live out what Robert Hughes so presciently described in A Culture of Complaint Moreover, unless the laws in KY somehow differ from those in my state, the restaurant still has the right to refuse service.
The rule in my household is being inconsiderate of others is not acceptable behavior, especially in public.
I always removed my kid when he got loud. No one pays for their dinner with the intention of hearing my kid cry.
There is nothing that requires me to take misbehaving children in public and mine know it. If they are unable to control themselves they get to eat at home until they learn.
I hate when parents don't "parent".
In most cases that I have seen, "autism" and "ADHD" are simply excuses for parents to drug their kids rather than be required to parent them properly.
There are a few ways to parent responsibly.
It really depends on what your child is doing, or how quiet you want them to be.
Read a few books on behavioral science and shaping. Reinforcing positive behavior and punishing negative behavior make it very simple to turn brats into well behaved children in society.
And spank your freaking kids every now and then.
The best tactic for parents with screaming kids in a restaurant....
Walk right up to the table.
Wait for them to turn and wonder WTF you are doing invading their space.
As soon as they start to say anything scream at the top of your lungs,
Do this for a few seconds and say "Isn't that annoying?"
If they try to say anything in defense of their feral child. Cut them off with another scream.
Repeat until they leave or you are dragged off by the police.
