Kids in clubs.

Perhaps I'm getting old, or maybe just working in the wrong places, But I have to express my disgust in parents who go to clubs with young children in toe, and are still there after 9pm with little children who should be home tucked safely into their warm beds for the night.

It's bad enough that we as a society find it acceptable to take children into places full of alcohol and poker machines, but to then expect the children to just hang out while the parents socialise is so pathetic.

The morals of our country seem to be ever laxing and on a steep decent. Don't get me wrong, I am not against mum and dad getting out to a nice club for dinner with friends. But to then move over to the bar area for continued socialising while their children are expected to entertain themselves is purely selfish.

What sort of start to life are we giving our kids. Am I the minority on this train of thought? Am I just a prude? Well if I am, then I am. I will allow my children the privilege to choose to hang out at these places when they are adults and not raise them to think it is the standard practice of everyone.
