Is This A Case Of The Responsible Suffering For The Irresponsible?
Answers
Its a good question, and a difficult one. First off if my memory serves me well, when a Wetherspoons opened near me some years back now, and if you like first came on the stage as a pub chain, they promoted cheap beer/drinks, and in my view in turn promoted heavy drinking. That said I don't believe that young children should be exposed to such adult activities in...

What you've asked implies, that the tolerance you have on alcohol should affect how much you should be able to drink when looking after children in weatherspoons.
I'm saying.. If you're looking after kids you shouldn't be at all drunk so regardless, you would be considered irresponsible for having more than one whilst looking after a kid anyway.

When my local Spoons opened there was a eating area at the back for families with kids.All children had to leave with parents at 1900hrs. A sign was placed to indicate this. All was well until the sign went and yummy mummies and their friends took over the whole pub throughout the day.Many a time I had nearly tripped over a crawling baby just let free to crawl under tables and chairs.I also object to screaming and howling spoilt brats who disturb the peace. They should be taken outside by the parents until they have calmed down. A good idea to restrict alcohol to parents with children but they will just drink copious amounts of free tea and coffee (after paying for the first) which does not alleviate the problem of kids running around playing 'chase me'. Apparently the Spoons in question has now taken down the sign with the alcohol restriction.
Unfortunately I doubt that ruling would of stayed long or be adopted by all the other houses in that large chain.
About fifteen years ago there was supposed to be a strict ruling about bad language in the Spoons. It was publicised in the National press.Any one swearing after an initial warning would be barred.That rule was never enforced in our local and we have a host of builders and scaffolders in it who would make a vicar blush.

@11.55 yes I have been in a w/spoons, and since wouldn't go in another, dirty, unkept, and smelt like a WC, as for the people in there the less said. But I don't believe they can all be like the one I went in, I think maybe it depends on the area its in, but it just put me off for good ever going in another.
A licensee has the right to decide who is or is not drunk or incapable of being in charge of kids.The licensee has the right to refuse service even if the drink is a beverage or a soft drink.
Any pub manager in the spoons, if they have the bottle, can ask parents to keep their kids under control and stop running around and bashing hell out of the fruit machines or they will be asked to leave.
Unfortunately some of the managers in our local have been young slips of girls just out of school.
