'erbert DOES have a very good point about SOME children and their parents . Personally I would rather NOT have to entertain badly behaved children - When Mummy and Daddy think it's FUNNY when their litle bastard pulls the microphone stand away from a singer or musician , it's beyond a joke ! I have had that happen more than once .
And the behaviour of SOME Brats in pubs leaves a lot to be desired as well .
I have NO problem with well behaved youngsters , and actively encourage the younger musicians at our session at Sidmouth , so dont take this as a blanket denouncement of children , any more than (I think) 'erberts was a blanket !
