Discussion
I just popped into my local for a quick pint,only to be confronted by what looks like a kindergarten crossed with a f
king zoo!
I don't necessarily mind kids being in a pub environment, but 4 And 5 year Olds running around, screaming and rolling around on the floor is taking the fking piss!
Meanwhile, the parents were all having a jolly fking time while the rest of the pub wondered what the fk was occurring.
They eventually managed to gather their little darlings together and left.
Seriously, what the fk is wrong with people?

Seriously, what the f
k is wrong with people?It's my local and is a good old fashioned pub. No flat roofs, no tracksuits, no orange wags and Geordie Shore wannabes, so the last thing I was expecting was the Swiss Family fking Robinson to be in situ.
I've never seen them before, and none of the regulars know them.
Hopefully that's the first and last time they'll visit!

There IS a reason it's called a PUBLIC HOUSE.
If you don't like it, drink somewhere else that doesn't cater for parents and children.
As a simily, Just remember, a chap who has enjoyed a sociable few is just as annoying to a sober person as the children are to you. Kids just don't have to drink to achieve that state to gave a good time.
Suggestion? Stop being miserable in a Public House and perhaps think how nice it would be to be someone (a child) who actually doesn't give a Fcuck (mainly cos 'giving a Fcuck' doesn't compute yet) and have fun. I disliked children intensley until I adjusted my attitude towards them.
They arent annoying anymore.
Try it.
So you think it's acceptable to have kids running round, screaming and fighting while the parents do the sum total of fIf you don't like it, drink somewhere else that doesn't cater for parents and children.

k all, despite the obvious annoyance caused?So I'm guessing you'd be happy for the same behaviour to occur when you're trying to have a nice meal with your partner?
Of course you wouldn't, as it's completely disrespectful.
And if you think it's acceptable, then you're a bit of a knob!
If you would then your an even bigger knob than I thought!

I'll reiterate. A Public House is just that.
Perhaps adjust your attitude. Screaming children are probably quite happy. Having fun. Who cares? Not me. I love to hear children screaming and running amok.
You go there to get drunk and have fun too.
(I note your comments about being a cock. But I'm not bothered. I probably am a cock but I've been to a pub this evening and have enjoyed alcohol and I'm in a happy mood)
I'm also not afraid of children.
I'm not afraid of children. In fact kids are great for the most part. Nor am I bothered about children screaming, for example when enjoying themselves in a park, or at a funfair, so I don't need to adjust my attitude, whatever that's supposed to mean?What I won't tolerate is little Johnny running round, screaming, fighting and generally acting in a disruptive manner. I accept that it is not the kids fault, but the fault of lazy, irresponsible parents who haven't instilled basic manners and discipline in their offspring.
But hey, your the expert, so what do I know?
