"To bring kids to restaurants really depends on the kid and the restaurant.  When my son was an infant, he was the best.  We would put him in his bouncy seat and he would bounce and stay happy during an entire meal which was a joy for us.  When he was 2 1/2 and older, he would slip under the table and just take off.  I would be constantly chasing after him. At that point we quit taking him out if we could and just did beach vacations where we could rent a room or condo with a kitchen.  The experience of constantly being on top of him when we were out just took away all the enjoyment of going out.  No doubt this behavior was disruptive to people around us.  Just like anything else they grow out of it and at age 20, I can take him to a restaurant again. \n"
