Letters to the Editor

I hate to say it, but yes...
I don't have children. I don't have anything personal AGAINST children. I have absolutely no intention of telling anyone how to parent. But I think that if you bring your children into a public place, especially one primarily frequented by adults, they should be expected to behave, and if they do not behave, you should leave.
I mean, I wouldn't go out to eat, for instance, Chuck E. Cheese and expect the kids to be quiet. I WOULD expect it in a cafe or more formal restaurant.
Or let's put it this way--imagine I brought my dog into a public place and he peed all over everything, ran around like a maniac jumping on people, and barked his idiot head off. YOU would have no problem asking me to leave, and I would be embarrassed at my dog's behavior. And I wouldn't bring him out in public again until he was better behaved.
