I just had an otherwise lovely evening out ruined by a screaming infant ("14 months old!" the parents proudly proclaimed to the hostess, waiter, and everyone else who would listen).
There was a time when parents used to ingrain proper public behavior in their children BEFORE they took them out to a restaurant. I know I'm not imagining that because I was a child during this time and I remember that my parents made clear that obnoxious behavior would get us an immediate ticket home, regardless of whether they were done with their errands or meals or whatever took them out of the house.
Aaah, for the good old days.
