Like it or Not: There are some places where little kids just DONT belong!

Let me start off by saying that every self righteous Soccer Mom wannabe out there that is offended by this, GOOD! You deserve it!

Kids do not belong in bars
Kids do not belong at the gym! NO they dont!
They are at risk in the weight room, you are NOT supervising them, nor are you supervising them in the pool.
They simply fucking shouldn’t be there
They should not be used as pawns to sell shit at work
They should not be used to peddle shit at my front door!
You know I’m right so suck it up and stop doing it!

AUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUGH!

No more Girl Scout cookies for you, then.

Yeah, they’re all mine.

There are some restaurants that should be kid-free zones. And there are some kids who should never be allowed in restaurants. Then again, there are some adults who don’t know how to behave in public either.

Kids selling door to door? A simple “No thank you” works for me.

I’ve got my GS Cookies on order - I just couldn’t say no to that cute little blond sweetie-pie! She knocked when I was vulnerable. The sneak…

I had to sell so many boxes of the damn things that to this day I can’t stand 'em. Yes, even the mint ones.

6

When the apartment building has a huge no solicting sign outside, I beg to differ.

7

Oh poor baby, if you can’t deal with a 7-year old selling Girl Scout cookies you really need to lighten up.

Other than that, I agree. There was a big stink made by a dining hall worker recently because one of the student magazines on his table had art that wasn’t appropriate for his young children.

Guess what, dickwad? A college dining hall is not a place for toddlers! And campus magazines shouldn’t have to pass a G-rated litmus test! Give me a break!

One Saturday or Sunday a month would be nice where everyone under the age of 18 is banned from the store. Some days Costco is packed with so many kids and their oblivious parents – including toddlers – it’s more than impossible trying to get around the place, as big as it is in the first place.

9

Dude. Don’t ever go to Costco on a weekend if you can avoid it. Ever. Whenever I end up there on a Saturday or a Sunday, I come out with an intensified boiling seething disgust for humanity. Oh, and a really big bottle of Aleve.

Look, I thought the strippers would like to see my kid!

11

The fuck were you thinking taking your six-year-old to Saving Private Ryan? Did you say, “Well, it’s Tom Hanks, it must be an enjoyable romantic comedy.” Idiot.

12

You took a kid to see Saving Private Ryan? That’s fucked up - it’s a violent movie. The poor kid was probably scared shitless.

13

“See Timmy? See the man looking for his severed arm? That’s what happens when you don’t eat your vegetables.”

OH!!! THANK YOU, THANK YOU, THANK YOU!!!
And LOL.

I have been thinking about starting THIS thread myself!!! I have two kids of my own, one full grown and married off, and one who just turned 11. And no I’m not the worlds most perfect parent…

However, I believe there are many, many places where kids don’t belong. Along with that, I’d like to add (is this a hijack??,if so I apologize) the places it IS okay to take kids, well, SOME of you parents need to learn to PARENT!!!

It is NOT okay to drag a kid through KMart for half an hour while he continuously screams at the top of his screechy little lungs “Moooo hoooomm eeeee HHEEEE, I WAaaaa HHHHAAanT It !!!, NOOOO NOOOO get it!!! Waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah” Over and Over and Over again!!!

Trust me on THIS one, the first time he does this and you take him Straight HOME to daddy and then, don’t stop there, the next time you take off to Kmart and he wants to go? Guess what, you say “nope sorry, remember how you acted last time”? Once or twice of him getting the “daddy treatment” and/or staying home instead of getting to go…

Oh GRRRR and the GYM? Ladies? What makes you think we want your snot-nosed little boys (and do NOT tell me that little giant is under three years old) staring at our privates while we get dressed? Or the offkey screaming of stupid day care songs in the shower and steam room area? The vamanoosing at top speed around the locker room, getting in the way and ricocheting off of us as we dress!!! ARrrrrggggghhh!!!

And decent restaurants? Or plays? Give us a BREAK!!! Oh and movies rated PG13 or higher?

Tell me, WHY are you bringing toddlers and impressionable elementary aged children to movies like “The Devil’s Advocate” and “What Lies Beneath”?

(ps, on the What Lies Beneath example this lady and her sister had two little girls about 8 and 10 with them. The movie had some serious sex scenes, partial nudity, adult content, etc.

I mean COME ON!!! On the bright side they were only a few seats away from us, and at regular intervals my mom, sis and I whispered LOUDLY things like "OH, that’s criminal, bringing young girls to THIS??!!!, and, during the sex scenes, “Oh MY GOD, can you BELIEVE They are letting those little girls WATCH this, maybe we should get the manager???” long story short, the women left).

Thank you for this rant, it’s LONG been a pet peeve of mine.

quote from Dennis Miller:

Just today my wife and I were at the library and not only did we have to give way repeatedly to some woman pushing one of those baby stroller SUVs up and down the aisle while the building echoed with the noisy sounds of children screaming and crying.

No kids in quiet places, please!

Kids don’t belong in bars? Fuck you, you rabbit felching piece of smegma. Who do you think gets me my drinks when I’m too drunk to stand up? Huh? And when it comes time to drive home, who do you think works the pedals and the wheel?

Jeez, dude…use your head.

We went out for a very nice dinner with some friends at Christmas (we’re talking 4-star restaurant here), and lo and behold but what did appear, but the squalling of someone’s baby. When I’m getting dressed up and paying that kind of bucks for a social dinner, I expect an environment that is screaming-free.

I’ll chime in and add that children should not be in Lowes Depot Supply or any other hardware emporium/lumberyard where oblivious drones are driving forklifts full of 2x4s inches away from where your toddlers are clambering up and down a precariously stacked display of water softener salt. I realise you have important family decisions to make, like between the white switchplate or the off-white one, but I think if you’re going to drag the whole extended family (grandma & grandpa included) to the store, one of them could be designated sitter and stay out in the car with the kids!

(and ROFL at superbee!)

You’re supporting them? Just where do you think telemarketers come from, the Intrusive Sales Fairy?

What bothers me is when I small children come up to my door to sell something, and there are no adults present.
“Oh officer, I don’ tknow what happened! I turned them lose on the neighborhood to knock on strangers’ doors and they just disappeared!”
