[Closed] To the family who think its OK to use a cafe as a creche at Antur

If you'd mentioned to them at the time, it wouldve saved you having to post here, and risking the possibility of the message not getting through to them...

No point thanking me, I was shouting at my kids in Tesco.

So you didn't say anything to their faces, but came on the internet to moan?

Think I spotted where you went wrong there.

I glared at the mother and did say shut up to the kids, mother did ask the screamer to use his inside voice, (inside voice FFS?)

Nice try 😀

I'm surprised to hear that a fine-dining venue like the Antur Stiniog Cafe permits this kind of behaviour.

How much for the little girl?

Sounds like typical irrisponsible parents these days. You would have been allowed to beat their brats a few years back. I miss the old days.

Just for oldtalent

You could have tried upstairs for some peace and quiet.

Kidz rule its a 21st century thing.

Worst rant of the week.

Also, it's 'crèche'.

I've creched at Antur, is that the same?

surely cliché?

anyway, as rants go pretty poor. However I am on board with the sentiment, though I am regarded as right sour bastard.

U ok Hun?

Sounds like typical irresponsible parents these days.

Kidz rule its a 21st century thing.

Sadly these are the norm now. I once made the mistake of asking some parents to kindly keep their yelling, screaming, hyperactive kids away from me and a friend in a cafe a few years ago after we had been nearly knocked off our chairs by one of them and other customers in there were doing that 'look and tut but do nothing' thing us Brits do so well. I got yelled at by one of them for daring to even remotely question their parental skills so badly that I now just move away from them now. I'm not great with kids anyway, dealing with family's and friend's kids I can do for an hour tops. When it's some random I don't know my tolerance level is much lower. I wouldn't kill one or even yell at it, ever. A stealth trip might happen as it runs past my table might be an unintended consequence....

* it can be parent or kid 😈

Oh, and café, obviously.

no, it's not the norm, you're just not noticing the well behaved kids.

You can of course tell the kids off directly.

Exactly. I saw loads more badly behaved adults than badly behaved kids today. It's a bit more difficult telling them off.

Isn't a crèche where you drop your kids off and then go and do something different?

So not being used as a crèche either.

(agree with the annoying kids though)

Similar thing happened to my Wife and friends at the calmababy swimming place they take the toddlers to.
Some kids who were too old to be using the toddlers play area were getting progressively more boisterous and after a while sent a couple of the toddlers flying.

The parents were ignoring their kids because it allows them to sit and have a gossip in peace.

One of the mum's told the kids they needed to calm down because they were knocking the smaller children over.
Cue tears and running to Mummy, only for the parents to get all shirty and start saying stuff like you have no right to tell our children off, you've made so-and-so cry etc.

There's a sign up that says kids under a certain age only and that parents must supervise their children....but this particular group of parents ignore it because it means they can have an hour's peace.

Is there one up saying no heavy petting too?

Obviously the parents didnt bring the "naughty chair" or the "naughty step with them, and that imortal phrase, "just wait till i get you home".

Now take a CHILL PILL AND RELAX, its only a cafe

I popped out for lunch today. The Victorians knew how to run an establishment. Two bar set-up (I could still hear the wailing of the kids in the other section). And I guess back them the kids weren't allowed in in the first place.
I'm all for venting on here, British people are becoming increasingly rude and territorial over space, infact I'd argue we've become the most joyless, passive-aggressive, ugly nation on the face of this fallen rock.
As you were.

Antur you say?
There's quite a deep mine shaft very close to there if I'm not mistaken.
Parents and children could quite easily have " tripped and fell down a bit of a hole" 😉

It'd be better if some kids weren't born TBH.

Except there wouldn't be Skippy The Bush Kangaroo to get help, it would be Shaun's 3rd cousin Dafydd the Welsh Mine Sheep.

😆 at milky.

Was one of the parents called Ronnie Pickering?

We have one young mum and 2 kids that come into our shop.
When they arrive it's drop everything and follow the little girl around the shop making a note of everything she is stealing and then casually mentioning to mum that her daughter might have some bits.
The little girl gets told off but it's one of those telling offs that she gets every 5 minutes that have no worth at all.
They then get into their Bentley convertible and are off. We have noted with despair that she is with child again.

I only ever pet up to a medium level at the local baths

Was one of the parents called Ronnie Pickering?

Who?

😀

I had a bad experience once. True story.

Probably my sister in law and her feral brats.

Where is the dividing line?

Bikini line.

we had been nearly knocked off our chairs by one of them

😀 a child in a café 😀

Where is the dividing line?

I glared at the mother and did say shut up to the kids,

Bless. Brave Little soldier.

At the playground:

"Ronnie, Reggie time to go"
