And no, I do not have any infants, my kids are old enough to (legally) drink!

Yes, Life is to short, and for many of us, the pleasure of enjoying a meal in a nice restaurant come few and far between. For me it is an extreme treat to spend $100 on dinner out and when I do, I'll be damned if I want that evening disrupted by a crying or a misbehaving child and then to have the evening wrecked because the parent of said child or children do absolutely Nothing to control the behavior of their child just adds fuel to the fire in my support of any restaurant to ban children.
While my fiancé and I were dinning in the new Mexican restaurant in Moultonborough July 4th weekend there was a group of 6 or 8 people waiting for tables to open up and be prepped for them. there was one boy approx. 5 or 6 who spent most of the wait running around the dinning room going to everybody's table and looking at everybody's food. Not Once did his parents /zoo keeper do a thing to stop him or prevent him from bothering the restaurant other paying customers.
If you want spend your evening dining next to a bratty crying child have at it. I'll happily spend my money and support any restaurant that is willing to ban kids.
