The rules when eating out with your kids:
1) If you've got a baby (can't talk yet) then make sure you stay at places like Applebees or TGI Fridays. Babies don't belong in nice restaurants. They can scream all they want in an Applebees, if people don't like it there they can go to hell. You pay for what you get.
2) If they're toddlers or older:
- No getting up from the table (nothing is worse than when parents let their kids play around the table or, God forbid, run around)
- No turning around and staring at other customers.
- No whining of any kind.
- No fighting with siblings.
- No throwing food.
- Sit your butt in the chair with legs under the table, and quietly eat your food.
Rule number 2 applies anywhere, whether you're in McDonalds' or a four-star restaurant. The parents must have a trump card up their sleeve to make the kids behave, ie no triple chocolate snickers cake for dessert if you don't behave.
