So my DH just informed me...

...that he doesn't believe in taking children to restaurants and other public venues until they are at least 3 years old.

I laughed.

He said he was serious.

I laughed harder.

If he thinks I'm spending the next three years tied to the house and unable to leave, he's got another think coming!!! Chat Icon Chat Icon

lololol...I think the earlier you expose them the better they will be in the future. He'll realize it when he gets bored at home!

He must be talking to my DH!! Last week he mentioned that he wanted to go to Hawaii next January as our first family vacation and then asked where we would leave our baby, meaning take the older one and leave the younger one. Boy was I laughing. I said all children will be coming with us.

My peditritian's policy [with my first] was to see the newborns the day after they left the hospital. [3-4 days old] A friend asked if we could do lunch since I would be out...I figured that if the dr. wanted her out in a germy office [ie-the sick children that are there], she'd survive a restaurant. I also took her to see Shrek at 6 days old. She attended my kid sister's 5th grade graduation at 10 days. My daugther went everywhere with me...and she got her first cold at 2!

If he's worried about misbehaving, honestly, my experience over the years has shown some kids are horrible and some are not. My sister was a monster in public, no matter the setting. My daughter would point out the bad children while she sat calmly coloring or eating. And it's better to acclimate them to social settings early than throw them to the wolves later!
