I live near Belmar...IF I go to seaside it is a blue moon, because of the fact that it has too many tourists and to me it isn't the 'beach'. Luckily I live 5 min from the beach, so I go to AVON and enjoy the quiet, the boardwalk, and then there is the Column's which is nice for an older crowd....30-45 ish.....Bar A is getting better too. Pt Pleasant is ok....Ortley Beach and Lavalette are nice quiet areas. But Seaside is just a zoo to me.
First of all none of us said our kids are out all hours of the night, and none of us said our kids stay up until whenever the clock strikes!
I think most people would find it odd that and 8 year old would go to bed especially in the summer at 7 -
During the week my 8 year old goes to bed at 8:30 during school and in the summer it kind of depends, no later then 10:00, that doesn't mean he is outside until 10.
If it works for your family that is fine, I think people just find it odd
Reading comprehension - or lack of it shows.
I'll make my kids stay up later, because you and JM find it odd (not to mention you both continue to miss ALL THE REASONS WHY I have stated that my kids do just fine with going to bed early.) Now back off and get back on topic before I tell you what I really think about people who let their kids run the streets/neighborhoods all summer long.

Ah, Bar A ... Now there was a meat market if I ever saw one. But great drunken fun, nonetheless!!!
As far as good places down the shore for those in the 30's. Did you say Avon-By-The-Sea was good? And what are the Column's??
