We now have restaurants (and other various types of places where differing groups of people meet) that separate smokers from non-smokers. I want places to separate people with load-mouthed little rug rats from people without load-mouthed little rug rats!!!! If I have to listen to another little brat scream his/her little pointy head off while I'm trying to enjoy a nice little meal again, I may do something drastic. I am particularly refering to the cases of children who are at least old enough (about 18 months) to know better at least to start learning to know better and/or the parents who sit there and say, "Now, now, Johnny/Jane. You should quiet down." or ignore them hoping it'll (the screaming/crying/yelling/etc) will go away. So keep your loud-mouthed little rug rat (if he/she) has not yet been trained in the rudiments of social graces) out of my restaurant! Of course, this actually applies to ANYONE who is excessively loud when they really ought not to be. It is just that a childs voice tends to carry across the room a lot better.
