‘I don’t come here to enjoy other people’s children!’ Should pubs and restaurants be kid-free zones?

Children were once banned from most British pubs. Some owners and customers miss ‘the good old days’ – but can they really turn back the clock?

    Exactly, I get you have kids and you have a hard time finding sitters and everything, but parents chose to have kids. It’s not some great secret that parenthood takes up time and means sacrificing these things, that’s why I’m choosing not to. I don’t view those as excuses personally, if you are a parent then you need to find someone to watch your kids if you want a night out, that’s the trade off. Not change everywhere you want to go into a “family friendly” place, or you know, go to a family friendly place.

      But then they have to deal with other people’s kids. Yuck. Who wants that?!?!? Yes, I’ve heard parents say that, when in a not kid appropriate place, with their kids.
