If we ate at a restaurant, it was early, and we were expected to behave or there were consequences. How selfish have you got to be to take your baby to a restaurant at 10pm and then sit idly by while it screams the place down.

The worst thing is when kids are at a pool table, even WHEN there is a sign. Throwing balls about, messing up the cues and cloth :bored:

Isnt it up to the pubs in this country, I know some just dont allow kids at all and some ask for them to be in no later than 9pm or something like that

Yeah, you try ask the nicely to stop and it and the parents get right nasty. Like saying "He's only messing about" in that snidey tone. I've got to say it's the mothers who are worst for it.

I also hate when parents try hurry you up, just so their little snot can play :bored:

Niall...about the plane thing, its so annoying yes. But sometimes unavoidable. When we went to florida there was a very young baby on our plane screaming the whole way. The mother or father did nothing to attempt to pacify the child. And only fed it once suring the 8/9 hour flight flight too(evidently the only half hour when it was quiet) I felt like going over and throttling them, obviously it was in distress/hungry/whatever and they just didnt care :rolleyes:
