Kids Banned For Life (or until the lawsuit)

And what would Samuel l. Jackson say about kids on a plane? XD

"Enough is enough! I have had it with these (Expletive) Kids on this (Expletive) Plane. Put them in cargo with the snakes, please."

several post cleaned up in here. I will remind everyone to not be condescending, rude, and/or in violation of Site Rules/Guidelines.

Attack the issue, not each other.

well behaved children are no longer the norm. when you are no longer the norm and inconvienience other people, AND place extra/undue burdens on the staff, you should have to pay more for services.

you SHOULD be PENALIZED for your inability to control your children.

that's the problem with the world today. stupidity is not penalized. lack of motivation is not penalized. idiocy is not penalized. ect, etc, ect...

and freakin' everyone is fine with that...

 

[lordofthereef]

I am not certain that it is no longer the norm. I think it is just far easier to notice the bratty kid than the good one (which blends in to your surroundings).

 

[batgeek]

i am certain.

 

[zuben el genub]

I do thank and/or praise a well behaved kid and/or the kid's parents. They need to know their efforts are appreciated.

I took my sister's and child to an aquarium yesterday and my smallest sister (2 1/2) was being really bratty. I didn't know what to do. I took her out and left the others to look around and she whined and whined. I would assume that was the right thing to do but until she's well behaved I will always be a bad "parent" in the eyes of passersby. Instead of being thought of as being good for actually showing her that she can't do as she pleases. I don't raise her btw. My daughter who's almost 2 listened to every word. She even learned to stay behind the yellow lines to distance yourself from the tanks. I'm hoping my sister will learn too :/.... I think I'm a bit off topic but this is already written so yeah haha

It's scary that you can be certain about something like this. What is your sample population size?

 

[batgeek]

big enough to know i am certain.

Like in my story. I bet no one noticed my well behaved daughter.

Its unfortunately human nature to focus more on the negatives rather than the positives... I'm guilty of it myself.

I pray you are no scientist. That is all I have to say.

Cute little jabs at one another in the last several posts.

Is it time to lock this thread, or is there more real, productive debate on the issue at hand?

 

[Sue7M3]

I am sure this will be considered unconstitutional or something.

Nope, it's not. Children are not considered a "protected class" so he has every right to ban them from his establishment.

Sorry, but have you seen "interpretations" of the constitution? If the right people with enough political power decide to take this on, you can bet the term "constitution" will be swung around left and right.

The law says age discrimination only applies to those over the age of 40. If a restaurant, movie theater, etc says no one under 6 or under 18 allowed, they are well within their rights to do so.

The problem isn't the kids themselves. It's lazy, irresponsible, and ignorant parenting. Too many parents think it's perfectly okay to let little Dick and Jane be rude and disruptive to others, throw tantrums, run around making a mess and being a safety hazard to themselves and others, etc.

I was out at the mall the other day and some little brat was screaming and crying and throwing a fit, kicking chairs, etc. She was earsplitting loud and mom didn't do a damn thing about it. She just sat in the food court stuffing her face with a Big Mac and texting while her kid's screaming tantrum ruined everyone else's meals. She should have taken the brat and left until she could calm the little terror down.

Thank you!

This is all too common and it makes you wonder... if the kid is ignored in situations like this, think about what lengths they will go through to get attention as they grow...

Thank you!

Maybe Mom needed some high energy food to deal with brat.

The brats behavior could be a sign of a disorder that is still not completely understood. I can become as irritated as anyone, but I try to keep in mind the mom is dealing with this 24-7.
