[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]God, who wants to go to a lunch where you have to engage with and read to other people's toddlers?  What is the point?  How is that enjoyable?[/quote]

OP again. I've said this over and over again: it was not a breakfast for moms. It was a breakfast with our toddlers while our older children were at camp. I didn't expect quiet or even conversation that required full attention.

It was a MOMS CLUB breakfast. I mean, moms and toddlers are the name of the game here.

The device thing has got to go! [/quote]

I generally don't give my kids tablets/electronic devices in restaurants, OP, so I am like you in that respect. But, if I were going to a moms' club to hang out with other moms, I would consider it. That is exactly the time I'd want to relax a bit and chat with other adults. [b]If I were just going to entertain my own kid and barely engage with other adults,[/b] I'd stay at home.[/quote]

Is there no happy medium anymore? Can't anyone chat AND watch their child? [/quote]

This!  I would also hope that the moms would be a bit more organized to plan stuff for their kids around the event in order to engage them.  Maybe have some games for the kids to play with, etc.  Use your brains, parents!  Device is the cop out/easy way out.  [/quote]
