[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]But the thing is, the kids weren’t watching anything educational and it wasn’t totally undistracted. They were still demanding new shows or a different show, or Mom had to hold the tablet or the child dumped his drink, etc. This was a mom and toddler lunch and I totally expected for the kids to engage. I was stunned when they all pulled out devices and my little guy just sat there playing and reading all alone. [/quote] You know the easy kids now often turn out to be more difficult later. Be grateful you have an easy kid. Why do you care what another child is watching? We get it, you are an amazing parent - but what makes sense to me is you said there were 3 year olds there and yet you left yours at home. What, cannot handle two kids at once?[/quote] He was at camp. But at restaurants he just reads or talks or plays with his brother. Last week was the same thing, a bunch of moms and kids got together for dinner at chik fil a. I thought my 3 year old would have friends to play with or would play in the play space, but no they got out the tablets again.[/quote] Restaurants are not for playing. No one wants you kid wandering the area when staff are carrying food and people trying to get in/out. Those kids place things are nasty and never cleaned. Those get together are for the mom's not kids.[/quote]
