restaurant bans children

[ELVIS]

I do not feel sorry for my kid. He is polite, is not allowed to "wonder" or mess around. He certainly does not go with us if we are going somewhere really nice. However, I know that he would be on his best behavior...He loves to eat, lol. One thing we stated when he was little was taking his own portable highchair whereever we went. When he was old enough to eat with us, that is where he was, he didn't get up and run every where. He didn't cry and if he did I immediately left with him. I don't want to be interrupted by someone's child throwing a fit...or just having a bad day. I want to enjoy myself....which is why we did not take him to the movies until he was around 4 or so. It's just rude to do otherwise.


We took him to the Riata in Alpine when he was 5. He told the waitress when he ordered that he wanted a 16oz ribeye with lots of marbling (and yes, he used that term), medium rare, mushrooms on top, mashed potatoes and green beans. She just kept eyeing his daddy and me like we were nuts. He did not eat the whole thing, but he put a hurtin on it. The chef came out in his full get-up wanting to see this little kid who knew how to order a steak.

good, kids should not think!

god bless.

I seen some shit a while back that I couldn't beileve some brought a newborn into the movie theater to see Transformers. Seriously who the hell does this.

Seen that happen twice in the past 6 months... a fucking newborn.

The last time was at the Studio Movie Grill... We paid for food, alcohol, movie... amounting to a decent sized bill, and some fuckwads bring a newborn that cries through the whole thing....
When did beat-downs for narcissism and stupidity go out of fashion?

Is it wrong for me to try to make those people feel as stupid as possible to the point of them leaving?

[MutherjuggZ]

that was the stare my kiddo gave me when we were with those annoying ass in-law kids

It's the same look that someone would have on their face after witnessing a horrible crime LOL!!! They don't know what to do or how to respond to kids acting like that so they just look to me for input. More often than not they get the silent glance that means "Hell no you can't go off and act like that with those kids over there"

If we're in a place where it's cool for the kids to run around and kick a ball or shoot some hoops, I'll tell the kids to go play but not if I see a bunch of kids acting like little fuckers out there.

I feel HELLA sorry for my kids, but it doesn't change how I raise 'em The shit sucked big time for me as a child, but worked wonders for me as an adult... so I won't do anything BUT the exact same actions as I was raised with. Then some day my boys will be grown men and hopefully they too will keep tight reins at their house on the children.

Then... the parents that DO try to wrangle their kids, get looked at from across the place with glares that could kill because of their child abuse against their child.

There is definetely a double standard to it all shen it comes to it and it's usually pushed by people who don't have kids of their own. It's annoying as hell.

lol thats true.... thats why you beat the kid behind closed doors while making this crazy face... then when theyre acting stupid in public just give them that stare cause theyll know whats coming...... its like how you train the dog with the bell when its feeding time....

LOL, wow.

I think more places need to do this. I cant stand paying good money for a meal with some kid screaming. Hell the other day I was at Taco Casa & this kid starts screaming at the table next to me. I got up & moved to another table. Of course its some white trash chick & she starts mouthing me & my GF cause we moved. We both just ignore her & try to finish out meal. But she keeps going on & on. We both still dont say anything just ignore her. She leaves after BITCHING OF COURSE & coming up to the table & saying some choice words to us.

I wanted to say something & it took everything in me not to. But she was one of those woman who think they can stand up to a man & I could tell it. So im thinking the high road paid off.

Point is. People dont control their kids & dont care if it bothers the people around them.

LMFAO! It's Taco Casa, not some nice restaraunt. (Good job on controlling your temper by the way)





I have no issue with a place not wanting kids in it. There are plenty of other places more than willing to take our money for a meal. I don't even have a bratty kid and I'm not offended by it. If they want to turn away business, thats on them. Families tend to the most loyal return customers because kids tend to be picky eaters and eat the same things repeatedly.

My little girl will be 3 next month and she is never that kid you hear screaming in the grocery store or other public places. She has such a laid back disposition that we constantly get compliments on her good behavior. I'd like to take credit for it, but I don't think I honestly can, it's just the way she is, just a chill little girl.

NOPE and if more people did I think these idiot parents would choose more carefully before going out.

the more you talk the more i love you..........lol

i have yet to be yelled at or had anyone come to me when i say something about their kids.... but i find it super annoying and however it takes to get the point across to them......

[Rough Customer]

I can not stand children in restaurants. If seated near a family with children I always request a table change. I do not want to be subjected to screaming and/or crying while paying good money for a meal. I use protection when I fuck.

As a father of 4, I have no problem with this whatsoever. In fact, I would definitely go there with my wife for one of our date nights. We have date nights to get away from screaming kids - not to go somewhere else and listen to yours.

When it's time to go out to eat, we always try to pick a place that is kid friendly, or at the very least, somewhere with a lot of background noise (Chilis, etc). My kids are very well behaved and very rarely create a problem in a restaurant. That said, 4 kids create a certain level of noise and other people shouldn't have to be disturbed by them.

It boils down to common courtesy and how the majority of people are lacking any of it.

Take credit for it because you deserve it. It is your parenting that did that. I was a perfect child but it sure as hell wasn't by choice.

[jasone]

seems like a good idea to me, but isn't it illegal to discriminate based on age?

[CJ-95GT]

Old people are next. They are shitty tippers too so they got to go.
