Re: Dealing with Young Kids at a restaurant
Asked by mikedan
Question:
What is the best way
My Advice:
My advice would be to set firm boundaries from the start, at home don't allow kids to be disruptive
at meal times, get them use to lots of different types of food so as not to be prone to being picky eaters, teach them to respect others etc.
With little kids, be practical, don't try and take them out to big flash restaurants with lots of adults and expect them to sit silently throughout the whole meal (that's just unrealistic). Older kids, have activities,books, toys to keep them busy. Finally, don't set yourself up for failure and or disappointment by having your expectations too high - after all they are kids not adults!!

i agree with u 100%. children will behave the way u teach them at home. if they are not allowed to do certain things at home, chances are they wont try it in public. although u get the odd rebel or 2
