Fine. But if you hadn't been good, your parents would have jerked you out of there so fast you would have been seeing stars. And that's how it should be.
I would propose the following rule -- parents should have to pay an additional fee to bring kids in -- I would propose at least $20 per child under the age of 16. This will drive a number of people away which is good because the clubs are too crowded.
In addition, if parents are asked to leave because of unruly children it should be recorded in their membership. More than two violations in a year should result in immediate termination of membership without a refund, this forfeiture would apply to lifetime membership as well, so the stake could be quite high. This would give the parent' an incentive to pull the misbehaving kids out before CO had to get involved and an incident when on their record.
