For lack of blog material, over the next few weeks I'll be bringing you highlights and my personal take of issues from the parenting web. On the many nights that I can't sleep and don't have the mental energy for anything more taxing than People Magazine, I turn to the parenting web.
We'll start with the first entry to SFGate Parenting Blog -- Judgmental Parent Roundtable #1 Leave your baby at home!
The great thing about the posts is that they are written to evoke comments from, uh, judgmental parents. As a bonus round, we also get comments from child haters.
My stance on the bringing kids to restaurants debate... Generally, we try to not bring Olivia to restaurants but for our own sanity more than worrying about other patrons. When we do dine out with her, we try to choose casual restaurants. And I try to leave a tip greater than 20% to compensate for the non-paying patron. Which probably still isn't enough given that the servers probably have to clean the floor after we leave in spite of my efforts to keep the food contained and pick up the pieces that I can get with the napkin. I can't stand the parents who think it's the servers job to deal with the mess their kids leave behind.
