Hey Kid: STFU!

I wanted to share this story of a restauranteur who has banned children under 6 from his restaurant.  I am pretty patient when it comes to children but, even I would seek out a restaurant that did this and give them my business.  It is not about being anti-child or anti-family, it is about being anti-poor-parenting.  If you have small children there will always be a time when they will misbehave regardless of their typical behaviour.  This may be ok with you, but as the owner stated: "you probably see your kids as the centre of your universe but, that doesn't mean they are the centre of the universe".  There are plenty of establishments catering to families with small children that serve really good meals, seek them out.  After all, most parents I know would like a nice quiet child-free night out once in awhile, shouldn't there be places where they can go and not have to put up with other people's children?

Now, if I could just find a spot free from seniors, conservatives, theists, Americans, Europeans, Australians, the Irish, English, Scottish, overly happy, astrologers, bi-pedal, soccer fans, Nickleback, Sweet Home Alabama....
