"Parents, we are not blaming you. Children and teens are learning to navigate the world free from supervision and often push the boundaries."
"We simply can't let them push those boundaries anymore at our restaurant. We encourage you to talk to your children and ask about behaviors they have seen and perhaps participated in."
"Often on Saturdays and days when schools are off, we have school-age children visiting the restaurant without their parents. Usually, these children and teens are dropped off for several hours at a local bounce park and groups of them then walk over to our restaurant. While we love being a community restaurant and serving guests of all ages, some issues need to be addressed."
When did you start going to restaurants without an adult to supervise you? Had you been taught how to behave, and did you behave? I'm actually surprised that I haven't noticed this problem before. Why wouldn't 14 and 15 year olds, arriving in large enough numbers, crank themselves up into a noisy rave?
I remember the summer of 1969, when I was 18 and working at the new International House of Pancakes, wondering why the customers were so sedate, each confined to their discrete booth, alone with their personal pancakes and carafe of coffee. Like the 6 syrups in their metal racks, the customers kept caged. Why didn't they notice that we were all here together? Why didn't they turn around and interact, booth-to-booth? Why didn't they unlock the wild party that lies just a crazy impulse away?
And I was 18, 2 years beyond the point where the Royersford Chick-fil-A would permit me to be seated.
