Inconsiderate Parents

I have been on PTO (that translates into vacation) this week and have been loving life again. But, one thing I can't understand is why parents turn their small children loose while they dine in one area of a restaurant and then turn the kids loose on the people dining outside. A buddy of mine (R) and I got together for a few beers and dinner at a mid county bar/restaurant. It took about 30 seconds to realize that the parents did not want to be disturbed by their own offspring, so they turned them loose and they ended up in the "beer garden" where we were sitting because it was a great night to be outside. It was like drinking beer in "Romper-Room", but there was no adult authority figure around to control the little brats. Just a pack of wild children ranging age from age two to about eleven. If I had owned the restaurant I might have made the following announcement. "Attention parents. You are responsible for your children. If you can not control them please pay now and leave and don't ever comeback". I really do like most kids but I have no use for worthless asshole parents who think the bar and it's patrons will keep an eye on their little shitheads. And you just know if one of them had fallen or got hurt, who would have been responsible for the parent's negligence. Oh, well they finally left and more than one person made the comment "good riddance".
