What would you do IF in a resturant there were unruly children? Last night on ABC's Prime Time, they did this experiment in a resturant. The children were actors as well as the parent with them. They were told to act up and NOT to listen to anyone that told them to behave. The parent was on their cell phone, ignoring the children the whole time. The children were throwing food. Crawling under peoples tables. Blowing whistles, fighting with each other. Throwing paper airplanes into the plates of the people in the resturant. Anything you can think of they were doing it. While the whole time the parent/actor, did nothing to stop them. What would you do? Would you just ignore it? Leave the resturant? Ask the parent to control them? Speak to the resturant manager? I myself would probably say to the parent at first. And if that didnt do it, I'd probably get the manager.

During their experiment that is what most of them tried to do. In the end it was a six year old girl that calmed them down. She shook her fist at them! ahahhahaa it was too funny. They sat right down. Even though the ABC station told them to ignore people. And to continue being bad. Some were asking them to sit down and behave. But they wouldnt'. Then this lil girl shook her fist. And down went the whistles and their butts to the seats.

I would want to talk to the parents and kids and even give a spanking but I would probably just leave the restaurant or maybe even stay and do nothing

It is a hard choice. Because you just dont know what type of parent you maybe dealing with. But with the way these children were acting, that was just way too wild! lol I use to work in a resturant. And at times there may have been a few rowdy ones. But NEVER that wild! I think though some may say they wouldn't pay for their meal. With that type of environment they were in. When you go to a resturant, you want to enjoy yourself. And there was no way you could with those two.
