A café owner caused a stir online when they asked a family to leave because their kids were being disruptive. There was a temper tantrum, which caused things to fall over and loud noises to be made. Some people supported the owner’s actions to keep the area calm, but others, including a witness who spoke up for the family, didn’t agree with the choice, which led to conversations about parenting and how to behave in public.

The story was told by someone else.
Someone in Australia got very angry when she saw a family of four being asked to leave a café because their “crying children.” Laura, a bystander, was shocked to see the management of the café tell the family that the police would be called if they didn’t leave. Laura said that the parents had tried to calm down their two- and three-year-old kids.

“It’s sad and shows that we still have a long way to go till children are seen and not heard and we understand the research into how kids’ brains develop.” “He could have asked if they needed help or asked a parent to take the crying kids for a walk, but he just threw them out,” she said.
The owner of the café said the fight started when the family’s two kids threw a fit over sharing a single scoop of gelato. “The older child showed how upset he was by putting all of our shells and other things on the counter and taking everything off the shelf.” He then grabbed one of the metal flasks and threw it at the tiles. “I was shocked that it didn’t break the tiles,” he said.
The owner of the café said that he first told his staff that the situation would go away, but the family stayed and sat outside. The temper tantrum lasted 15 minutes, and he asked his family to leave. His mother looked shocked. The dad said it was bad business, but I told him it was bad parenting instead. Since eight and a half years ago, I haven’t had to ask someone to leave before. It was loud, and the older one was screeching, so I did it even though I didn’t want to.
The owner was also confused when Laura stepped in to defend the family, even though she hadn’t seen the whole thing. “She came in and told us we were disgusting, but she was sitting on the other side and hadn’t seen it,” he said. Then she posted a video on social media telling people not to come see us.
But Laura didn’t agree. She said that as a worried bystander, she had the right to stand up for the family. “I think sometimes you do get looked down upon when having kids, especially if they’re having tantrums and stuff, but their brains aren’t fully developed at that age, and they need help to process those emotions,” she shared.

A lot of people stood up for the café owner.
A huge number of people told the mom to “mind her own business” or said that what the manager did made them more likely to go to the café.
“The business owner did the right thing; I would have too.” He is responsible for making sure that everyone has a good time. “When my kids were little, if they were acting like spoiled brats, I would have packed up and left out of respect for other people,” one woman said.
One added, “Responsible parents should either have taught said children how to behave and show respect for others or remove them from annoying others.” Many people even said, “I wish more places would kick out bad kids.”
“My wife was worried at first when the video went viral,” the café owner said. “But most of the comments were positive.” He also said, “Business has been good; the day after it all happened we had double sales.” Things have been going really well since then.
