As long as nobody can see a pack of cigarettes, there is obviously nothing wrong with it.

I hate when I am in a bar and the stripper is trying to give a lapdance and her damn kids keep bothering her.

No kids in bars. It's a rite of passage, not a privilege. Besides, I'm sick of kids.

My parents live in Ireland 5 months of the year, and the pub owners have their kids working behind the bar. Americans can be such uptight a-holes.

Why do parents have to take their monkeys everywhere? I don't really hang out in bars, but I would hate to see kids in it.

These ladies should do like my mother did, drink at home.

I am 100% behind the fact that there are certain places that should be Kid free, Brothels, Bars and Steam rooms.

Count me in for wanting a kid free place. There's no reason for them to be in bars anyway.

I know, right?! I was thinking, prior to seeing your post, that this probably would not be a big deal in a lot of other countries.

You would have liked him
Mama, you would
I bring him here nightly
It's for his own good
And he just loves the smell of cigars!
Children in bars
Children in bars

He should be tipsy
Mama, he's drunk
What do I do?

You should have seen him
It is no joke
Mama, I weened him
On Bacardi and coke!
I don't understand what it was
But, Mama, the things that he does
They give you a high and a buzz
You would have liked them

Him...it...Henry! Henry!

[[George]]
It's George, grandmother

[[Marie]]
Of course it is
I thought you were my th-th-th-fth- - oh **** it - FATHER - for a moment
Did I ever tell you who f-th-th-that was? (shows George a cameo picture)

[[George]]
That is your mother

[[Marie]} [does a double take]

That is correct!

Isn't she beautiful?
There she is, there she is
There she is, there she is
Mama is everywhere
Pa loved her indeed - to a fault!
though less than he loved single malt
After I pass out, leave Gus a tip, Honey

[[George]]
Let's not talk about that right now

[[Marie]]
Ithn't she b-b-b-b-you-de-thul, though?
You would have liked her
Mama imbibed things no one imbibed
Mama was funny, Mama was fun
Her days in the rehab were always short-lived

Mama said, "Honey, mustn't overthink
It's not so much drink what you like
as it is that you like what you drink"
Mama said, "Darling, don't make such a drama.
A little less tonic, a little more vodka"
I'm just quoting Mama!
The child is so sweet
And the barback enraptures us
It would so suck if Child Services captures us

[[George]]
Yes, it would, Marie

[[Marie]]
You would have liked her
Honey, I'm wrong
YOU WOULD HAVE F*CKIN' LOVED HER!
Mama enjoyed things
with olive or twist
[get it! Olive or Twist! HaaaAAAAAH!]
See how she enjoys!

I know, Honey, you don't agree
But this is $2 chablis
Just wait 'til we're ****faced and see
Listen to me
Mama was sloshed
Listen to Mama

Why am I an uptight a hole if I don't think children belong in bars and I would like a place that's kid free?

If I am going to go to a bar and drink myself stupid, get sloppy drunk and stumble around the last thing I want to see is children. There are many parks and play areas that adults without children are phrohibited from going, why can't I have a place where I can go where there are no children?

I spent a year in Dublin after high school. Pubs and bars are very different--yes, I saw kids in pubs--I never saw one in a bar.

To those adamantly opposed to even allowing parents to bring their kids into bars with them during designated pre-evening hours, would any of you be willing to go along if the establishment provided a special staffed room/nursery for kids separate from the adults? I don't know, maybe parents would pay for the service according to how long they're there, maybe there'd be a discount depending on how much $ the parents spent in the bar. Just an idea. Heck maybe there are already places that do something like this.

I go to restaurants myself, not bars, and honestly have no idea here: what is the difference between a pub and a bar? I thought "pub" was just what they call a bar across the pond.

Here's $20 bucks. Watch my kids while I knock back a few scotch and sodas. Be back in 30 minutes. kthnx.

There is a huge difference between a "bar" and a restaurant with a bar. Most restaurants, if they're not fast food, have bars in them. And of course kids are allowed.

I'm talking about "bars" meaning just a bar, a hang out for adults, a place to drink and meet people. Kids have absolutely no reason to be there. none.

No Jane, and that I agree with. I just don't hang out in those kinds of bars any more. As far as bringing my kid out with me when I go out to eat or whatever, I do it because I enjoy his company. He's funny and charming and an all-around good kid.

A pub (to the best of my knowledge) is a place you can get a full meal as well. While many people go to pubs just to drink (and often get pretty drunk) they tend to be a cheaper restaurant in most senses. People sit down with their drinks, etc--unlike at a bar.

Bar vs Pub

[StockardFan]

Posted: 3/20/13 at 5:26pm

I honestly prefer a pub atmosphere to that of a bar.

[StockardFan]

Posted: 3/20/13 at 5:26pm

And on that note, I'm pouring myself a Smithwick's.

I have seen, at least in Dublin, pubs that have bar sections or rooms where minors aren't permitted.

Great.

Here in America, we try to separate kids and liquor.
