I think that more restaurants should take notice, this is a great idea. No one wants to have to eat a meal while some little bastard is screaming his/her lungs out.

http://www.cbc.ca/news/yourcommunit...ze-a-restaurant-that-bans-young-children.html

If you don't like screaming children with your entr?e, there's a restaurant for you in Monroeville, Penn.

McDain's Restaurant and Golf Center is banning children under the age of six, MSNBC reports.

"We feel that McDain's is not a place for young children," owner Mike Vuick told a reporter for MSNBC. "Their volume can't be controlled and many, many times, they have disturbed other customers."

Vuick insisted it's not that he doesn't like babies - he just doesn't like it when parents act as if their child is "the centre of the universe."

Some parents object to the ban, calling it ignorant and unfair.

There is no law against banning children from restaurants in the U.S. (Senior citizens, however, cannot be banned.)

Many said that about banning smoking in restaurants way back when. While I don't personally agree with the ban, if people don't like it they can simply choose another place to eat...
If I'm eating fast food, at some greasy spoon or at some shitty chain restaurant then I don't mind the little squirts. If I'm eating someplace and paying $10-$20 for an appetizer, $30-$50 for an entree, $8-$10 for dessert plus alcohol I don't want to hear one single peep. This place is a Golf center so it's probably upscale, it ain't right to have to listen to some little bastard scream when you're trying to enjoy a nice meal.

oh, you'll get the little squirts when you visit those places. you'll get 'em.
The last time I ate at Taco bell I got the BIG squirts, the kind where the whole inside of the toilet bowl is caked. It wasn't the long drawn out squirting runs either, it was the kind where about a quart come out in a split second, like an ass explosion.

Amazingly, they could do that before we started passing laws telling private property owners what legal activities they can allow on their property.

I appreciate what they're trying to accomplish and if its their restaurant, they should be able to set reasonable limits on disturbances. But this place ain't exactly Morton's Steakhouse...

But, they want to play the rock and roll music on the phonograph!

(I suppose that's actually the hostess station by the door but at first glance I was thinking it was a Victrola)

Yeah, because kids are the only people capable of being obnoxious. I've never heard of a golfer being loud and fucking stupid after 18 holes of drinking a beer per hole while getting sun poisoning. :roll1:

Different types of obnoxious for different types of places.....On the flip side, I am not sure why someone wants to take a young child to a place that is not "child friendly", especially at high prices.

Yeah, and I always wonder why people take very young children to an Ohio State football game too. But they do.
