I understand what you're saying. My kids are older so I love seeing little ones at places. There is a fine line between acceptable noise/distraction and a kid that's really making a racket. Venue also makes a difference.

I was at my daughters high school graduation recently. A younger family had two young kids there. They were very noisy, walking around the bleachers, talking, crying. Everyone was staring down the parents. Finally, 30 minutes after they should have walked the kids outside they did. I was getting ready to say something. It was an inappropriate place and time to have noisy kids.

A mexican family restaurant is a different story. The more the merrier!
