Welcome to the Hardcore Husky Forums. Folks who are well-known in Cyberland and not that dumb.

I would totally eat at this restaurant.

I know it's the Daily Mail, but I don't care.

This is due to most parents not teaching any manners to their precious little fuck trophies.

    I don't agree with the policy, so I would not eat there.

    However, I admire the man:

    He said: 'Let's put it this way, I haven't had a down year for over 20 years. Our business continues to grow.'

    I wonder what would happen if a black person tried to eat there with a crying kid.

    Any who ... good for him.

    Exactly! If you don't like their policy, don't eat there.

    I saw a bunch of people on the news whining about how "this sends the wrong message". Really? It just shows that many people have kids and don't know how to raise them. Their kids are coddled and allowed to act like total shitbags in public.

    In any case, if this guy's policy was totally wrong, then free market economics would take care of the problem. Looks like his business hasn't taken a hit at all.

    Sounds like Old Fisherman's Grotto doesn't believe in the 1st Amendment...

    Free market economics determines right and wrong?

    How is it wrong?

    I have a 3 year old and a 6 year old.

    They act like shit bags in public. According to some, I raised them wrong, boys will be boys and they like to get each other fired up and act like Muslim Terrorist on an American plane.

    If someone wants to dine away from these fucking jihadist ... I don't blame them.

    I wouldn't eat there because I have kids and know sometimes kids will just be fucktards.

    There is no law against what he is doing (my black question could challenge that), so let the free market determine his policy. If he takes a hit ... then he may change.

    But is it wrong? No.

    Acting up and annoying the shit out of other customers is definitely wrong. The policy is behavior based. Yes, it makes an assumption that those in strollers and high chairs are going to misbehave.

    Same type of policy should be adopted regarding people talking on their cell phones in restaurants.

    BTW, do you think the "no shirts, no shoes, no service" policy is wrong too?

    You don't have kids ... do you.

    I'm on your side ... the guy has a right to do as he pleases in this scenario.

    There are adults every day who annoy the shit out of me ...

    Yes ... parents should crack down more ... but until you have one ... then two ... you will never understand.

    No, we don't have kids. But, we do have plenty of nieces and nephews who act like shitbags at times.

    Anyway, I actually don't have a problem with the kids. It's really some parents who don't properly monitor and discipline their kids. I've seen it way too often. They'll let their kids just run around and tear up a place and not say a word. I've also seen some really good parenting, but it's not the norm.

    You're also right that there are many adults who act like the world revolves around them. I get to spend too much time at public places, thanks to my line of work. I'm at airports, hotels, and restaurants more than I care to be. So, I get to see plenty of real self-centered, entitled behavior.
