I hate children being anywhere near me, and loathe the shrill sound of their squawking when I am trying to relax. Why they outlaw smoking but allow children in pubs is beyond me.

It always used to be that you could go in a pub at 16 but not drink alcohol until 18. Then they said that children could be in a room that had no access to the actual bar - hence the number of pubs that had a childrens' room. Now nobody seems to care. With so many pubs, especially in the country, being gastropubs it seems you can't get away from the children anywhere.
I wouldn't mind so much if the parents kept their children under control but the ones who take their children to the pubs seem to be the ones who think that their children can do no wrong even when they are annoying every other customer!

A landlord can choose whether or not to allow children in if his licence permits it, however anyone under the age of 16 must be out by 9pm or 8pm depending on the local authority and licencing board rules.As a parent I enjoy being able to go out for a pub meal in the early evening with my kids in tow but we don't stay on long. As an adult I don't tend to head out until after 8pm anyway so don't usually have to deal with other peoples kids still being out when I get there.

Here where I live, all the pubs, bars and other entities that serve alcohol and adult entertainment do not admit anyone without valid updated ID, over the age of 18 after 9pm.
Some places here do not admit anyone unless they are 21 or older and with a valid updated ID.

It is a case of time and place with an emphasis on the place. I agree with children in the bar if the family is having a meal. I do not agree with children in the bar when a boozing session is going on. My own family often do the former but never ever tha latter.

I think it depends.
Maybe they can make some for kids under 18 so they can be with their peers.

What do i think?
I think you should use the odd comma or full stop mate.
That's what I think.
