Kid, You'll Just Have To Be Content With Delivery

A Tampa pizza restaurant has banned all children, and you know what kind of response that's generating, from "you can't do that!" to "finally, I can eat in peace." The restaurant says that it did so -- with the large letters "NO CHILDREN" on its door -- because they'd had incidents where a kid acted up and created a safety hazard that could have gotten the place sued. It IS legal, and while it sucks to punish families with kids who behave, we all have dealt with parents who don't pay attention to the kids' behavior, or, worse, encourage and defend it. So, should they be banned, or should the restaurant reserve the right to throw them out, or should everyone grin and bear it? (Tampa Bay Times)
