As a parent and child care provider, when I go out to eat, if I don't have my daughter along then I'm going to a restaurant in hopes of NOT running into noisy kids. When I take my kid out to eat I take her to child friendly family restaurants. It's more fun for her when it's a place that has a child's menu, a coloring pages, crayons, and a brighter atmosphere.
As for misbehaving kids - no matter WHERE you go there are rules that some people don't seem to even care about in regards to caring for children.
1. Use inside voices.
2. No climbing on chairs, benches, or even tables.
3. No running.
4. No throwing toys or crayons.
5. No coloring on the tables.
There's a multitude of other manners that should be observed. I tell you what though. The people who refuse to acknowledge these have a lack of respect for others and as in this article a 'sense of entitlement'. Our generation is somewhat notorious for thinking that we deserve a whole lot more than people in other countries or even former generations ever were given.
