[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I'm a newish mom and don't see what's so important about going to kid friendly restaurants? My 2 year old eats whatever we eat. I'm not taking her to Michelin star restaurants, but likewise, refuse to go to McDonalds, Chilis, Ihop, Chuck E Cheese. I'm a really fun mom and love to cook. [/quote]

+1 My husband and I get countless comments about our 10 yr old's "advanced" palate from other parents, friends, waiters, etc.  From an early age (2ish), our child ate what we ate, from raw mussels to roasted Brussel sprouts![/quote]

Yes, but you are probably engaging with your 10 year old at the table, teaching them about the foods, looking at the restaurant menu with them, treating them like they're part of the experience, etc. So you're making it fun. Versus I bet OP's parents just plunked the kid down in a chair, told the child to be quiet, and gave them whatever to eat quietly, hoping the child didn't interrupt the adult conversation. [/quote]
