Quoth eltf177 View PostRestaurant owner says kid cried for 30-40 minutes, parents say just a few minutes. Somebody (or everybody) is exaggerating...
I'd really like all the facts before making a judgement call on this one..."I don't have to be petty. The Universe does that for me."

The diner owner may also have taken any of the kid's noises as screaming. Some people just don't like kids, especially before they have much of a vocabulary and still do most of their communicating through crying, squealing, etc. (as toddlers do). My 14-month-old squeals to greet people, and since squeals are loud by nature, I can see how someone would take it badly and I try to keep her quiet. However, there's a difference between a kid squealing with happiness every once in a while and one crying for 40 minutes straight. It's hard to say who was really at fault here without actually being there.Last edited by Aragarthiel; 07-23-2015, 03:01 AM.The fact that jellyfish have survived for 650 million years despite not having brains gives hope to many people.

The owner is a full-on bitch, and I wouldn't patronize her restaurant, children of my own or not.
How do I know I wouldn't get a similarly nasty attitude if I wasn't happy with my meal?
Here is an article with a Facebook post by the owner about the incident.
I will not let the parents off the hook. If this happened the way it was described then they were inconsiderate to their fellow diners, are not teaching their child the right way to behave in public, and are playing to the Facederp mob. But the owner's response is not professional in the least, and I am troubled that there are many people defending it.Last edited by Irving Patrick Freleigh; 07-23-2015, 03:07 AM.Knowledge is power.

While I don't agree that the child should be called names, I do agree with the restaurant. The parents are responsible and should have removed the child when they wouldn't stop. That's what my mom did - if I created a scene, we had to leave. I learned very quickly not to act up in public or else we'd be right back in the car.
