F. . . Parents who let their children run wild

I think this is different? Actually I didn't read the other thread. This is specific for eating out. That and the fact I want free legal advice of tasering fat trollops in Portsmouth.


Eating out is discussed in that thread as well.

So I'm supposed to sit there and let her cuss me? That's verbal assault. If someone comes up to your table and cusses out your woman, are you going to sit there and just let it happen?


Do you happen to double for the Geico cavemen by any chance?

i posted my story in the other thread, but the same thing happened to me, except that i had to step up in a situation because things were going from bad to worse. Something had to be done. The lady started yelling at me and stuff, calling me a baby killer and a rapist and everything else (i was in uniform at the time, and servicemen get that kind of treatment very frequently now)...she had a boyfriend and he looked at me, but must have decided otherwise...anyway i would have banged him out, cause thats how pissed i was.

Long story short, the management threw the people out because they had too many complaints.

Point here is this: if your kids are so bad in public and you do nothing, and it gets to the point that you are ruining it for other people, then you deserve whatever you get....IMO

Sadly normally the parents who allow this have no parenting skills or common sense and deem the behavior normal. Probably becasue the cicrcus that you see unwinding in front of you at the restaurent is a normal occurance in their household.

I don't feel like going round and round on this subject again but don't let a few bad apples make you think the whole bushel is bad.

Not speaking directly to you Solid Snake, more the mob as TTE put it.

i wanted to post again so people didn't get the wrong idea about me. We stumbled into a hellish situation, and i was pressed to act, from the urging of other people, and my own sense of doing the right thing. Anyway, i too was with my lady, and at that point i would have had to get physical if it got to that point. I had asked her in a nice way if she could please handle them, for the sake of the other patrons, and at that point she flipped.

I could deal with the verbal abuse, but if there was even any chance that my wife would be harmed, then i would have to act with force. I'm not a bad guy, and maybe i shouldn't have got involved, but it seems like when things go bad, i'm always the person who gets put up to doing something about it....

hey i'm not offended at all, and i didnt take it that way. I was just generalizing, and saying there are people out there, who let it get that bad...they know who they are.

If another woman cursed at my wife, I would not get involved at all. It's between two women, it's up to them to deal with it. You as a man getting involved is kind of chicken shit, IMO.

That said if it looked like it was about to come to blows I would step in to break it up.

I would jump to protect my wife from a man's verbal assault though. I might even throw the first punch, even though I'd be at fault for assault & battery.

This should teach you a lesson about going to Seattle. :laughing-

As for unruly kids, it depends on a couple things. First, are you in a nice restaurant or a friggin Applebees? While I wouldn't let my kids run around anywhere, the expectations need to be different at a "family" restaurant vs a different place.

But I do get what you're saying, if the kids are actually running around between tables and acting like maniacs, that's completely unacceptable in any place but McDonalds.

I might have told the manager that a lady/animal must have forgot to take their medicine and is cursing and may be a threat ...." you might want to call the police or ... those men that carry straight jackets" ? I might have " spilled " some water on her as I was " leaving " , if she was a hard core nasty " B " .
