Yeah, I figure we all have a legal right to go to a restaurant. If it's a restaurant where I'd expect to find a lot of kids, I'll close my earlids and tolerate it because I knew what I was in for. If it's a mid-level restaurant or higher, I'll just assume that the parents are incompetent and stupid if they don't take some sort of action for a kid who's acting up. In a minor side story, I was on a flight earlier this month, and (sigh), two women and a four year-old sat in the row behind me. It was clearly a mother and a grandmother, and the mother was putting on a big show to show how great a mother she was. She was loudly having the brat count to five and identify things out the window and all sorts of stuff, constantly and loudly. If she gave the kid that much attention in everyday life, the kid would be solving calculus differentials instead of throwing toy cars around the cabin. The kid kept kicking and hitting the back of my seat so much that I finally got up and found an empty seat somewhere else, and the flight attendants were quite amenable.
