Hey all...
Did you have rules about resturants and babies? Or did you just take them everywhere?
Dh and I went to a VERY pricy resturant as a treat for ourselves a couple of weekends ago. All dressed up and having cocktails. Anyway, right next to us is a party with an 8 month old whining in a high chair. Mind you, our reservations were for 8 pm and they sat after we did.
This is incredibly rude, imo, for many reasons.
First of all, most 8 month olds are done by 8 o'clock. Secondly, there are just some resturants that are not meant for babies... a $75 dollar-a-plate resturant being one of them, imo. I do think that older

I think you are going *way* overboard if you really think that people discussing and/or venting about what we ALL realize are essentially *small* issues is a reflection of their real lives. What, you think you have the market cornered on feeling grateful????
I certainly do not see people here focusing only on the negatives. People come here to talk about stuff that is fairly trivial in the grand scheme of things. We *do* all know this, and it sounds pretty condescending for you to imply otherwise.

You're right. . .it does sound condescending of me. . .and for that I apologize.
It's not an excuse, but please bear in mind that this has been a stressful week at my house.
I don't consider a baby's crying and whining to be "typical baby noises".
That said, I think it's amazing this thread got to over 400 posts simply because you apparently didn't understand the concept of "it's rude not to remove the child when their behavior is intrusive for the other diners".

I think that is very observant of her and being so young. I'm sure you're so proud =)
Come on, let's see it. There's no way we're going to let the Queen of posting photos here get away without showing us. I know you've got a scanner...
We're waiting....
(Oops, I meant queen as in everyone sends her photos to you for posting when they don't have the upgrade.)
Still waiting...

Virgo, I'm so sorry your DH is going to Iraq, and glad to hear he will be in the same unit with his friend. I'm hoping this war will come to an end soon.
On the bad days feel free to vent, rage, spew here. We can take it!
