A January 5 article in the Chicago Tribune announced
that Disney has officially banned children under the age of 10 from one of their swankiest restaurants:
Beginning this week, children younger than 10
are no longer welcome at Victoria & Albert's
in the Grand Floridian Resort & Spa. Victoria
& Albert's is Walt Disney World's only restaurant with an AAA five-diamond rating.
I ain't complainin' one bit about that decision; however, I just wanna know something: how come only rich people get
that kinda relief from other people's annoying kids? I wanna be able to go to any restaurant and see a sign that says "Children under 10 not allowed."
That includes McDonald's, folks!
My lord. Some people (you know who you are) don't know the first thing about how to beat their kids
deal with their kids when they misbehave in public. I remember the very first time my son had a temper tantrum in the grocery store.
I took off my flip flop and
smacked him right there in front of everybody. Tryin' to embarass me in public? Not havin' it.
Seriously though, if I'm seated near a table full of bad ass kids, I will loudly proclaim to my server,
"I need a new place to sit. I left my kids at home. I don't wanna hear anybody
else's kids."
Even though Victoria & Albert's gets only a handful of small children a year, the few they did see were so damn bad
they felt it necessary to implement a ban on children under the age of 10. If my kid caused that kinda ban,
I would be so embarassed I'd never visit the state of Florida again.
Let's take this post dangerously close to a racist rant. I'll state this: it's usually the non-Black mothers suffering through an embarassing public temper tantrum.
Am I right? You know I am. Remember the scene in The Color Purple where the Mayor's wife (a white woman) says to Sophie
(Oprah's character), "Your children are so well-behaved. You wanna be my maid?" Her kids were well-behaved because Sophie didn't mess around!
If you're a run-over, run-down mother who needs
some child-rearin' help, let me know. I have several tried-and-true methods that will whip your child
into public-presentation shape in no time. You'll never need to threaten them with, "You wait 'til your father gets home" ever again.
