Democrats in mass can do no wrong. They can leave a hot date to drown and still get sent to the senate.
Texas Roadhouse is not the place to go for a quiet meal.
To quote noted child-hater, comic W. C. Fields once said, “I like children, properly cooked.”
Or, “I like little girl children, about 18 to 20 years old.”
“...just what this kid’s behavior was like...”
I find that many caretakers enjoy making life hell for as many people as possible. We all have friends and relatives who are disruptive of the peace and impact our lives, but that is no reason to drag others down with you. If you have turrets, don’t go to the theater. If you have bouts of projectile vomit, don’t go to the restaurant.
That said.... whenever you get a chance to screw a democrat liberal, do so.
I’ve been to a ton of steak houses, and yeah I know this is a chain restaurant, and yes I do bias anything with the word ‘Texas’ in it.... but I consistently get the best steak dinners at Texas Roadhouse.
And where did my daughter ask to go for dinner when she turned 5? And where are we going Saturday at her request for her 6th birthday... maybe she just likes to toss peanut shells on the floor.
That is absolutely correct.
Our kid learned very early on what our standard of behavior was in restaurants. No corporal punish was required in that particular area. You behave or we leave, regardless of where we are in the meal. And you don't come back for XX period of time. When she was about 2 we got up and left Wags just after getting our food (we paid for it, not the restaurant's fault) and went home and she got a sandwich for dinner. No yelling, no spanking. She was stunned that we only asked her once to behave before leaving. Never happened again.
Pick your battles with kids, but never back down when you have to issue an ultimatum; consider the ramifications of the ultimatum carefully. Sometimes you have to suffer inconvenience in order for the kid to get the message. I paid for a dinner we didn't get. It was worth it.
My primary point in this thread was that details of the nature of the altercation, the child's behavior, and just what "special needs" represented were conspicuously absent.
That said, a man running for office in a small town ought to have had more sense than to let it escalate as it did, even if he was 100% right. Shows a serious lack of judgement for someone wanting to run one's town. I'd like to have been there and seen it firsthand.
LOL. Agreed. In Spades.
See my post #26 for further comment on the Dem.
Don't worry, the year is young, there's still time. :)
The common council voted unanimously 16 to zero to have the city’s ethics committee look into the allegations.
