From what I've read, the restaurant owner did ask them to leave and they refused. These parents obviously had no consideration for their fellow diners, most people would immediately remove a screaming child instead of inflicting it on others for 40 minutes.
yup and you don't care about anyone else, just the fact, that your child, should be allowed to scream and ruin everyone else's evening....
You sit in a restaurant for 40 minutes and listen to someone else's kid screaming bloody murder and then come back and tell me the same thing when your old...it drive you up a wall....it's hard enough to have to go to work every single day and put up with rude people....and then once in a while you get a nice person or people....people these days are so freakin demanding, they want it all, now top that off with some kid screaming in your establishment...I'd yell at the kid to...[period!]. There is nothing wrong with doing so if the parent is going to sit there and be so stupid. Matter of fact, I would go over and ask them to leave.
I remember being yelled at by a neighbor for doing something wrong, and that was fine and should have been...b/c my mom wasn't there.....
Unbelievable.....
I don't believe anyone is defending that, the fact is the woman screamed at a two year old it is wrong regardless.
cremebrulee, stop attacking posters. You don't know how anyone on here raises their kids. Stop projecting.
Also, when you live in a society with other humans, sometimes you are subjected to things you would prefer not to be subjected to. When I walk around in my neighborhood, I don't want to think about stepping on dog urine, but it's not that serious. When I live in a condo building, sometimes I can smell certain foods cooking that I'd prefer not to smell, but that's condo living. When I go to a family restaurant, and a toddler cries for a few minutes, I don't assume the parents aren't doing the best they can.
With this business owner's attitude, I don't believe her for a second that the child cried for 40 minutes straight. Not for a second. She is completely off her rocker. I have spent a lot of time with many, many children. She sounds like she's got a serious chip on her shoulder. I hope karma gets to her, and it will, somehow, because she is a bully.
Have there been any other patrons there at the time this happened that have backed up the owner's story? Obviously the parents aren't credible. They say their kid cried for 10 minutes, owner says 40. Can anyone else vouch for either?
wonderwall cremebrulee, stop attacking posters. You don't know how anyone on here raises their kids. Stop projecting.
I'm neither attacking posters or projecting, I suggest you understand, when I'm out in public, paying money for a movie, dinner, whatever, I don't have to sit there all that time, and listen to some kid screaming, like what happened to me....and if a parent allows a kid to do that, then they are definitely unaware or concerned about others....they have no concern that other people are out to have a nice time and shouldn't be subjected to such disturbances....

as an adult I realize that, but this what happened to us was over the top and during our entire dinner, so it was probably longer then 40 minutes....and I sympathize with the owner of this restaurant....
so please don't tell me how to think and feel, we agree to disagree.

Now whose attacking who? it's ok for you to say something like this, but if others get defensive, they're not supposed to react? Sorry, the owner is just that, the owner....and while you may not believe that this child screamed for 40 minutes, let me tell you, the kid who was at the restaurant we were eating at last Friday evening, screamed during the entire appetisers and our whole meal, plus the waiting time between each...which was longer then 40 minutes.....
I'm sorry but it's not ok! Period!!! When I pay money for a nice evening out with friends, I expect to have it peaceful, and not some kid screaming at the top of her lungs, so much so, you couldn't hear each other talk!

no it isn't wrong, actually her place, if someone is disturbing someone else to that degree, she had every right to yell....
Sounds like you think that it is okay to yell at the top of your lungs at a 2 year old in some situations. Well it isn't under any circumstance. If she felt she just absolutely had to yell and couldn't keep it together then she should have yelled at the mother not the two year old child. BTW she ended up acting more immature than a two year old.
