[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Next time, remove your kid, take her outside, to the car and you will avoid the stinky eye. Simple.

and you'll hold my infant for me?

note that DH tries to help but infant and toddler are going through a phase that both will only be content on mom's lap. we're still adjusting. we can try to reason with the toddler but as some of you know it doesn't help. and unless DH is wearing a shirt bathed in breastmilk and my swat the infant won't stop screaming on his lap.[/quote]

I posted at the bottom of the first page and will offer a couple of scenarios.
1. When you went out with the iPhone, take the toddler with you.  (You didn't say that infant was also melting down)
2. Send DH out with the iPhone to load it, with one or both kids with him.
3. One adult leave with both kids, the other stay to get the check and the food to go.

In all cases, smile and apologize to the other customers. "Sorry, bad day in toddler-ville today!"  Acknowledge that you and your family were disruptive as you were also actively trying to fix the situation.  From an outsider's perspective, watching an adult walk away from a screaming toddler probably didn't look like you were dealing with it.

As for the whole "it was only Chipotle" thing, that's a pretty elitist attitude from all posters.  For many people, Chipotle or restaurants of its similar caliber are the only dining-out treat that they can afford.  Or, it's the closest thing to their office for a quick respite from the workday.  Doesn't mean they don't have at least a reasonable expectation of civilized behavior.  [/quote]
