Babies in Bars

fairyruneApparently there's a big kerfuffle going on about people brining their babies/children to bars.
Here's my take.
I am a non-whiny, non-spoiled, (hopefully) non-self-absorbed, twenty-something woman who is not yet married, and not planning on having children.
Though I do not make a habit of hanging out in bars regularly, I do occasionally patronize a few choice local establishments.
Babies do not belong in bars. Fact. End of story.
Hell, I think people shouldn't be letting their children run around Dave & Buster's after a certain hour, since there's people drinking in that giant bar in the middle of the room, but that's just me.
The fact of the matter is, there is a time and a place for everything. Bars are an adult establishment, and children simply do not belong there.
I really, really don't understand why people are even having this argument. The supposition that whiny twenty-somethings, (or thirty-somethings, or whatever-somethings; whiny-ness is unattractive no matter how old you are) are just as annoying as bawling children does not negate the fact that babies do not belong in bars.
