I don't know who you are confusing with reality. I started the thread
with a comment from a woman who was talking about taking kids to
restaurants and who suggested that if they don't have high chairs, maybe
it is not a place to be taking kids. I sure as hell don't want a nice
night out ruined by screaming kids, so I don't go to places that have
play areas. Those are the places with the slack parents who send their
kids off to play because they don't have the social graces to sit
through a meal without being disruptive.

This golf club dining membership is starting to sound like a better deal
