So, he put a sign on the door at kids' eye-level, asking children of all ages to use their "indoor voices."

This does not seem out-of-line to me. Is there more to the story?

Maybe next to the number dispenser near the door they should have a duct tape dispenser...

Next step: advertise the fact that they are now brat and helicopter mother free. That'd draw a crowd for sure

Kid Unfriendly? I don't think so..

If you hate your children do not discipline them..

This restaruant is an ideal place for parents to take their kids...it will help parents to teach their children respect for others and that they do not have a right to act like wild animals in public...

If the parents canno't make their children 'mind' in public the restaurant provides the perfect 'authority' for parents to appeal to...

You can't yell and scream or run around wildly...because those are the rules here...if you insist you will be told to leave..

Perfect lesson for kids and parents.

imo

..Stanton-Cromwell said the cookie serves as "a good calmer" for kids who are acting up..

Yes by all means give sweets to a child who is behaving badly. If you want to give hime more energy to reinforce that behavior, that is.

I find that a varying grip just below the ears works better though. By now, usually all I have to do is place my hand on my sons shoulders or neck, and he comes into line. There is no substitute for firm consistent discilpine.

The guy should counter the woman's boycott giving a special treat to every child who behaves and uses their indoor voice.

Just another mother refusing to see what monsters she's raising.

There was a mother who brought 4-5 of her "acting out" offspring to my local library. I've never seen anything like it. She was palpably angry - I always had the feeling her goal was to literally inflict her children on the world in general. Their behavior was the same at the supermarket.

McCauley said he loves kids, although he has none of his own.

And he's not going to have kids anytime soon, as anyone who has seen the video of this guy can attest. He's about as gay as they come. Not exactly a pro-family kind of guy (I'm sure he whines about "breeders" in private).

The angry mothers said there are plenty of places in the Andersonville neighborhood where they can take their kids, even if they're acting out.

Then take your little brats there, you stoopid cows, and leave the folks at "A Taste of Heaven" in peace!

As my father used to remind me, "children should be seen and not heard".

I'm sick of people's obnoxious, out of control, undisciplined trophy brats.

It's not like having a child is a really big, unique accomplishment. Guess what parents, there are billions of them in the world and they're not all "special".

It's bad enough with the continual din and racket of "music" in these places.

When's the last time you were in a quiet place?

Angry Moms Boycott Eatery That Asks Kids To Keep Quiet

I usually boycott angry moms.

Then I tell them to keep quiet.

"They offer ice cream cones and cookies and lots things that kids love, and therefore, I don't think that they should make such an issue of it," Bremmer said.

Who the hell are you, telling people how to run their business in a free country?

Fine go elsewhere - BUT STOP YOUR WHINING, YUPPIE.

It's easy to see why the children are out of control, after seeing the parents have a temper tantrum over this sign.

I have noticed that frequently it's the parents with the worst kids who are the quickest to take offense if someone suggests kids should not act like heathen devils in public.

All 3 of my boys, from a very young age, were civilized to the point of being easy to manage in public places. I used to have people come up to me at restraunts and compliment me and them. And, they were all, from first to last, born in a little over 3 1/3 years.

“Acting out”? I always thought the term was “acting UP”.

When I was a small tot I threw a tantrum in a grocery store because I did not get something I really wanted. I only did it once. Getting my behind beaten RIGHT IN THE MIDDLE OF THE STORE IN FRONT OF EVERYBODY by my mother broke me of the habit real quick. Those were the good old days folks, and now they are gone forever.

I support the stance of the bakery and I am a parent of two active, lively children.
